A BOLD SPEECH.


Thaddeus Stevens, of Pennsylvania,
having res eived unanimous re denomination
for Congress from tue Union III en- Of his
district, acceptedit in the following speech,
delivered before the convention, in Which
he discusses the policy Of the government
with great boldness:
"FEILow CITIZENS: | have come for
the purpose of thanking you and accept
ing your nomination. IL is always grati-
flying u aapublic man to be assured of
the continued Sonfdence of those whose
servant he is, but especially so in times
like these, when the wisest nlen differ on
questions Of policy. | had prepared to
speak on those questions, and to criticise,
not in fulsome manner, but as thought
it deserved, the conduct of the war and
the present policy of the administration;
but in the last hour | have hesitated
whether to speak as | had intended
whether it were proper to criticise now,
in this hour OF deepest gloom, when we
know not where our armies are, but only
that they are nowhere successful. Bu.
whether we advise the government, or

not despair; lite is not ali sunshine--it
has gloom with JOY, adversely with pros
perity-nor is victory always to the just
human energy and earestness will often
wrest from fate what would seem to be-
long to justice alone. Possibly we have
not yet suffered enough; but let no man
falter in his loyalty to the government,
no matter how he may criticise it's policy;
for he who falters now is traitor not on
ly to his country but to humanity and to
his God.
/ have not determined whether to speak
as l had intended; perhaps, when We
know the result of these few days l may
meet you and speak to you. / have pro-
tested against the present policy, not on

cising too much lenity at the request Of

This agrees entirely with the present view Of
the Cabinet, as understand the Secretary Of
State. Now | do not know why the case was
not thus stated in the first letter Of the Sec
Rotary TO Mr.. Adams, instead Of declaration
that the seizure was unauthorized; nor why
Il was not long ago published here. Perhaps
il was to draw out Great Britain to see
what ground she would now assume on the
old question Of rights Of neutrals, about which
we have had one war with her and also to
see whether she would go so far as to protect
the rebels.
Other questions begin to be mooted now
that the prisoners are to be surrendered, what
will be done with themi 1.-THE British Min
lister puts them on board British ship, will
our government order cruiser to follow and
capture her, and bring the ship to trial in
court Or, if the British Minister tells the
prisoners to go their way, after their own fash
ion, will we arrest them Sufficient unto
the day." &c. The subject is not pleasant
one.
Here is promise Of work. In a comph-
ment to Gen. Porter's brigade, delivered as a
christmas present, the commander-in-chief
said
Since the last review the improvement Of the troops
in all the requisites Of good soldiers has been marked,
aud whenpro5abiy distant daythis division shall
be thrust against the enemy the fighting effects Of the
good training given your men will be appreciated BY all

so long without arms, are to be furnished with
very effective weapon breech-loading

How ENGLISH OPINION WAS CORRUPTED.
The n. Y. Tribune publishes the following
extract from a letter written by distin-
guished Englishman, recently a member of
parliament, showing how the secession agents
have misled English opinion:
" Long before secession was an accom-
plished fact, the press of England had been
tempered with BY the emssaries of your dis
union party. Men had been industriously
at work to prepare the way for the speedy
recognition of the independence of the cotton
States. The programme of Jefferson Davis
and his co-conspir1tors had been made known,
and arguments supplied wherewith it might
be supported Men here were already sup
piled with their briefs and their retaining
fees. The simultaneous rising Of the Free
States, and the improvisation Of an immense
army Of loyal men, greatly disconnected the
Vaccinations OF Iancy, Mann. and their cor
rupt tools, and necessitated the adoption OF
different course Of action but they are still
active, and the plumber of the sub-treasuries
of the South still holds out, and is freely dis
tributed among those who are base enough
to be the instruments of the worst Of traitors
and vilest Of despots."
~ Col. KuItE, when he was captain Of the
MASSACHUSETTS, thirteenth regiment, and IN
command at Monocacy Junction, on the Bal
timore and Ohio railroad received orders from
Gen. Bark to arrest the members of the
Maryland legislature, but how to ascertain
who they were was puzzling in the extreme.
When the train arrived Capt. Kurtz entered
the car and announced, as usual, that every
person on board would be searched, but if
any were members of the Maryland legislature
they would be exempt. OF course the gentle
men were only too happy to be relieved from
such an indigity, and they politely stepped in
to another car, and were then pat under the
the care of guard, and conveyed to Freder-
ick. They returned next day, with Wis
consin soldier each for companion, and their
opinion of Capt. Kprtz very much deprecated
ANDERSON CLIMAx.-When Mr.. Charles
Anderson a native Of Kentucky, and q
brother Of Gen. Anderson was seized by the
Texas rebels. his reply to their demands was
that " he would never submit TO the Confed-
crate authorities, because he was lover Of
freedom, and Of republican institutions and
that Of all despostims. he most despised that
of an oligarchy; and that the meanest of oil
garchies, in his estimation, was that based
exclusively upon property; and tina. its
mesnness was enhanced, when it rested on
only one kind Of property and that il became
perfectly execrable, when that one kind Of
property is property in slaves"

From THE SECOND VERMoET.-Rev. C.
B Smith, Chaplain of the I'd Vermont Reg-
ment writes to the Vermont Chronicle that
three of our Captains are now away on
leave Of absence: Capts. Dillingham; and
Fullam on account of i'll health, and Capt.
Hope on account Of sickness in his family.
This leaves our regiment with only four on
duty, and one company-Capt. Fullam's-
without commissioned officer" Mr. Smith
also says that Col. Whiting "is daily grow
ing in the esteem Of his command" OF the
religious interest in the regiment, he says
that they have been obliged to dispense with
their Bible class and prayer meetings, and
the preaching service has to be very short,
for the want of some suitable place to hold
them in. He says:
1--WE now propose solicit aid to procure a chapel
tent The expense OF one that will answer will be SIPS
For this must look to the benevolent Oh islans

surAnce that such tents will be transported. We must

the Secretary OF State has contributed some
thing to this by the manner in which he has
discussed the question. Diplomacy perhaps
required him to travel over the whole ground

public, in this country and in Europe, would
be better satisfied with a strong statement of
