who spoke as follows
Col. BuIIOclx's Speech.
Mr.. President, and fellow citizens Of WorceS-
ter:
Let us take our reckoning, and see where
we are and whittier we are drifting
We are engaged in war which has been
forced upon us by Il conspiracy whose wicked
ness casts into eclipse all the parallels of his
tory since the fail Of the angels. The impor
lance of the crisis to us, and our duty grow
ing out of it,are of corresponding magnitude.
We know that if this government falls, it falls
forever. If this Union be dissolved, let no
man indulge the dream of but two contedera-
cies. Between the hammer and the anvil the
diamond may be crushed, it cannot be divided ;
it will either resist the blow, or be reduced to
atoms. We have deeper stake in this war
than was ever fought for since the creation,
1t reaches each mans home. 1t touches each
mans rights, his property, his earnings, and
his hopes. Its shadows stretch beyond our
lines, into the faces Of our children to a late
poSterity. We are the sewers /; but the reapers
are in the generations after us. Many things
about the war are in doubt, but one thing We
know. Whether this temple of our fathers
shall survive the shock, or, ut the close of the
war, Massachusetts stand like a solitary brok-
en- pillar of the Parthenon, they who in this
awful hour deal doubly with the Union cause,
orpalter directly or indirectly in favor of the
enemy, will sink to grave from which no
trump will sound the resurrection call ZAP
plause)
And in this war Massachusetts has trod the
pathways of her youth; as first in arms at
Lexington SO first in arms at Baltimore,
whose democratic gates opened to welcome
our boys to hOspitable graves; first at the
capital to encircle it with her arms-so she
will be the last to leave it. Seventy thousand
Of her sons have put OFF the part of the shop
and the farm and taken up the rifle and the
sabre for liberty and union. In all this time,
the executive at home, her senators and rep
resentatives in congress, have devoted all
their time, and directed all their energies, to
fill up and push on the Massachusetts line, to
support the president in all his policy, and in
bearing the nag to its destiny OF victory
4 invite scrutiny challenge comparison.
Point me to any executive who has done as
much or as we'll as he has; point me to any
senator or representative in congress who has
done better or more than yours have done to
sustain the president and the army, to weaken
the rebellion. and to aim the blow at its vital
parts. Then, but not till then, shall Massa-
cilusetts cease among all her sister states, to
wear the laurels Of her loyalty. (Great APP
plause.)
Such is the situation. And now there
springs up party here at home whose man
ayers and orators seek to underrate, dispar-
age, traduce, and overthrow these your public
servants who have made the yey name of the
commonwealth radiant at home and on the
field. They assemble in Boston, they come
to Worcester, they go to Springfield, they
march to Hyannis, and exhaust the hours, not
In burning words against the authors of this
atroclous rebellion, not in support Of the con-
summate and ultimate war measures of the
government not in firing our hearts against
thai which is the cause OF all our troubles
but ID efforts to conceal the fostering national
sore from which pour the polluting streams of
our present distress, in exciting our preiudices
against faithful civil guides, and in disgorgIng
the spleen Of bitter partisanship upon a gov.
eruor and senator whose fault is lin the
judgment of these mem not that they have
done too little, bat that they have done too
much, for liberty and the rights ofman. loud

in subordnation to their own personal antipa-
