Great Meeting i'm Faneuil Hall.
RESPONSE 10 THE CALL FOR TROOPS.

Meetings have been held in various parts of
of the President to raise 800, 900 troops for the
prosecution of the war. But it remained for
Boston to give the finishing Strickland one
of the largest and most enthusiastic meetings
ever convened in Boston assembled at old
Faneuil Hall, on Saturday, at III o'clock.
Thousands went away, falling to gain admis-
sion. Speeches were made by Mayor Wight
man, at the conclusion of whose remarks Har-
vey Jewell, Esq, of Boston, submitted the fol-
lowing resolutions:
Resolved, That we heartily indorse the con-
servative policy of the President of the United
States, and renew to him. the continued assur-
ance of our confidence, and devotion to the
welfare of the whole nation.
Resolved, That the city of Boston, true to
the traditions of the past, in prompt response
to the requisition of the President, comes for
ward with q willing heart to lay upon the altar
of our common country the lives Of her sons
and the treasure of her people, without stint or
limit, in dessnse of that noble Constitution
and Union, the preservation and perpetuation
of which inyiolable through all time Is the
paramount duty of every State and individual
throughout the length and breadth of the
land.
Resolved, That the stern exigencies of this
hour cali upon the cid and young, the rich and
the poor, alike to rally around the old flag Of
our fathers, and consecrate their best energies,
and their lives and fortunes, to the defense Of
this the best government that kind Proyi-
dence has bestowed upon man.
| Resolved, That there be appointed by his
honor the Mayor committee Of one hundred
and fifty persons, who, in conjunction with
him, shall receive and expend, IS they shall
deem expedient, such sums Of money as our
citizens, IN their Iberality, may be disposed to
give 70 promote and facilitate the enlistment
Of volunteers, under the late call of the Pres
ident of the United States.
The resolutions were applauded, especially
passages referring to the President.

An impression prevails that at the grand
council of our Generals at Washington def
mite policy was agreed upon respecting an ex-
change ofprisoners. No official announcement
TO that effect has been made. The impression
may be based upon fact. The Richmond
papers at least so regard it, and are jubilant
over it. They look upon it as triumph wrung
from the United States. Such an exchange
cannot be made, they argus, without recogniz-
ing them as belligerent power, and if bel
ligerent power, then, one to be treated with, to
receive and to make propositions of settlement.
For once they say they have got US on the
record, and with this much Of a recognition
they dream again OF foreign powers recogniz-
ing their independence. They turn shadows
into substance, hopes into verities. Bnt all to
no purpose. If an exchange of prisoners for
those of equal rank is to be proposed on the
part Of the Government, it will be done as an
act of humanity to our own brave men, whose
hardships and sufferings the Confederates wish
10 turn to such good account There can be
no general system of exchange. If the rebels
have betrayed US in the past, what guarantee
have We that they win do any better in the
future? Would Col. CoRcoRAN be prisoner
to-day if they had been actuated by honor or
truth? But how could we expect class of
men who made haste to perjure themselves
TO begin the rebellion, to have any more re-
gard now for their word, their written pledges,
or their oath2 The less we conhde in such
men, the better for ourselves, and the better
for our country.

FOREIGN PRorEcr1oN.

In another column we publish an account
Of an excitement at st. Louis, oceasioned bv 3
resort Of a number of foreign born residents
TO seek protection Of the British Consul. 1t
appears that some who declined taking the
oath of allegiance on the ground that they
were not native born citizens, had awaited
themselves of the privileges of citizenship on
various occasions, and had taken an active
part in some of the city elections Now that
the country needed their services, they were
unwilling TO render any aid but from cowar-
dice inglorious selfshness or some kindred
motive, they avowed themselves aliens, and
looked across the waters, affirming that their
allegiance was due to the British Crown. This
was too much to be quietly tolerated by the
patriotic and loyal Irish, who came across the
sea that the Stars and Stripes might wave over
them and their posterity. They remembered
the wrongs Ireland had suffered from England
in former years, and voluntarily expatriating
themselves from English dominion, they sought
our shores to enjoy civil and religious liberty
in the great Republic of the West
During the war in which we are at present
involved, no soldiers have been more brave,
or more true than some of these adopted citi-
zens. They have braved all hardships, and
have shrunK from danger. No wonder,
therefore, at their Indignation, so forcibly ex-
pressed in the language they adopted. Nor
were the resolutions mere dead letter, as many
learned to their hearts content. A Conven-
tional Committee opened an Office near that Of
the British agent, and when applicants pre-
sented Themselves for protection papers, they
we're handled without gloves, and were glad
enough to escape with their lives. Lover says
of Michael Free that he " was quiet till
he was rolsed. The same may be said of
every Irishman. The authorities OF ST. Louis
may have been imposed on by persons pre-
tending to be British subjects, but with such a
spirit as has just been awakened there, few
will feel like running the gauntlet.
st. Louis is not the only city where this i'm
position, in the name of Great Britain, has
been practieed by those who have secret or
avowed sympathy with secession, or whose
souls are too diminutive to share in the glory
nation that has made them all they
are. This city and New Orleans could point to
similar instances, no doubt, where persons
have appeared at the Office of the Provost
Marshal, who awaited themselves of the rights
of citizenship in time of peace, and who
since the war commenced, sheltered them
selves behind the protection of the British
Consul.
Such persons may live, may die, may be
buried, and soon forgotten. They lack all the
elements Of natures noblemen. ContrssteC
with them, how bright and precious the repu
tation of the foreign.born citizen who ha
chosen America for his home because he love-
her institutions and her people and who, wher
the country Of his choice is assailed by conspi
rators, rallies to her defense His memory
shall be enshrined in the hearts of the nation
when that of his less noble countrymen shall
have utterly persisted.

The meeting was afterwards addressed by
Hon Charles G. Loring, Hon. Edward Ever
ett Gen. Devens, Judge Russell, etc.
4 A committee of one hundred and fifty gen.
tlsmen were appointed by the Mayor, in &C
cordanee with the fourth resolution, to receive
and expend such sums of money as shall be
given By our citizens in behalf of the cause of
those who enlist in the army of the Union.
The greatest enthusiasm prevailed, and rous-
ing cheers were given for the Union at the
close of the meeting.

Policy OF the Administration In Refer
ence TO Slavery.

Policy OF the Administration In Refer
ence to Slavery.
The Washington correspondent of the New
York Euening Pest of the 2ad, writes as fol-
lows in reference to the policy of the Admin
istrstien on slavery
A very long Cabinet meeting was held yes
terday upon the subject, and there was an
encouraging degree Of unanimity. There is
some tenderness toward the border slave States
even on the question of slavery, but none
whatever toward the Gulf and Atlantic slave
States. I hazard the opinion that the policy
of the Government viii be to totally over
throw slavery in the cotton and sugar-grow-
ing States by every method in its power. It
viii not stick st any obstacles, being convinced
that the only hope Of making those States
obedient is to entirely destroy slavery in them.
Total abolition in the States of South Caro-
lima, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louis
lana and Texas is resolved apon, or ] am
grossly misinformed. There will be no procla-
nation upon the subject, but it is none the
less the fixed policy Of the Government. mr..
Lincoln has prejudice against antislavery
proclamations, and win quietly inform his
generals Of his purposes, and viii make no
flourish in the matter nor permit them to
make any With slavery abolished in the
Gulf and Atlantic States, it viii take care Of
itself elsswhere-will gradually expire.
