ANoTHFR SPEECH Rx MIR. TRAIN.

Mr.. Train on EnElend's NeusstIity and
Gen. Buffers Proclamation.
We find room only for The following extract
Of one Of Mr.. Trains recent speeches.:
NEUTRALITY.
Mr.. TRA1S-Neutrslity signifies weakness,
All small minds hesitate. Lack of decision
shows lack of power; Generals Who win bat.
ties are not neutral men. Neutrality on the
American rebellion is taking sides in disguise
The man who is soit on the American question
is soft on oil questions. despise soft Ameri-
cans as well ss soft Englishmen. 1t is impos,
sible for an honest man to be neutral. He who
is remarkable for his neutrality until you feel
his esrrotte is around your neck. The Ca.
manche chief is neutral to your face, while
his scslping knife sleeps in his belt. Dumol-
lard. the French murderer was neutrsi be-
fore he destroyed his victims. There il no
half way between patriot and traitor. The
woman who permits the least familiarity has
already lost the foundation of her virtue.
Let her remain neutral in the presence of
the libertine and she is lost. The young nan
counting his employers money must not be a
neutral-n he does not wish to end his life
upon the gallows. The coat have made 6ts
exactly the neutral bankers and leading Ameri.
cans abroad-who are waiting for victories be-
fore hosting secession or Union flags. The
garment 10 not out Of place on Enplsnd's
back. Neutrality in England is treachery.
Americans say, ''England, with all thy faults.
We love thee still" Englishmen say, "Ameri.
ca, with al thy virtues We continue to hate
thee Strong men choose sides-weak men
are always neutral; once an idiot always an
idiot. The world is packed with fools.
Neutrality is imbecility. No man can serve
two masters He must either love the one AND
hate the other, or hate the one and hate the
other. Our Saviour was not neutral. Enc.
land for three generations has been unjust r.
America. He that is unjust in little is unjust
in much. The maxim comes from an aocient

the success Of our mission. They took hold Of
the matter at once, and have labored earnestly
and faithfully to secure the release Of our un.
fortunate prisoners Of war. If an exchange is
ultimately effected, It will be mainly BY their
untiring efforts and influence.
This is my last hour in Washington. / am
anxious to return to Dixie, where my rations Of
corn, &C., await me. Yours,

endure their pains like eaints and martyrs. It
is gratifying to assure the country that they are
all most admirably cared for. Fresh air, clean
beds, proper attendance, every thing that can
comfort and alleviate them is furnished, and no
soldier in any Washington hospital can be heard
complaining. The universal response to inquiry
is, that they are in need Of nothing and have
nothing to complain Of

Gregg, have just left for Dixie, their parole

purpose Of arranging = general exchange. but

derstood, truly. believe, that the persistent
hostility Of the Secretary of War is the cause
Of its present failure. 1t Is designed to-day to
introduce joint resolution into the House, di.
recting the exchange, and a. there is almost
universal commendation of the purpose among
members, it will doubtless pass. I hear of no
argument from the Secretary, since the surren-
der Of Buckner has been abandoned as the
Chief objection, except that it is impsudent, at
the present time. to reinforce the enemy to the
extent Of the prisoners to be exchanged. But
that would seem to be . very insufficient and
unsatisfactory argument, since the exchange is
TO be man for man and rank for rank, to stop
when the numbers held BY either side are ex.
hausted, thus reinforcing our own army to pre-.
cisely the same extent that the rebel army
would be.
Col. Gregg expresses great indignation at the
treatment Of rebel prisoners by our people, con.
sidering the treatment that is meted out 70 our
prisoners by the rebels he thinks that retalia.
ton should be employed to secure humane
treatment to our men, since the ordinary mo
tives are insufficient. He says our men would

my attendance, but I hear that the affair passet
off very pleasantly.

sequent upon the operations before Richmond
