Now this brings me to the second procla-
nation. 1t was issued very short tim
after the first. What is its object? 1 want
to call your attention to that. The secor
proclamation warns us that certain military
authorities shall be appointed over us to
make arrests for disloyal practices Let US
see what will be the effect of that. What
do our Abolition friends mean by disloyal
practices? We will see. l find by re-
port of certain meeting of Abolitonists,
held in this city, that the following resolu-
ton was adopted:
Reso1Ued That every vote given for ames
S. Wadsworth is a vote for loyalty, and
and every vote given for Horato Seymour
is a vote for treason.
Three cheers for SEYMOUR
In meeting held in Brooklyn, a speech
is reported to have been made by Hon. Cas-
sins NJ. Clay. II sses. A voice: "Maior
General.'' Laughter and groansl Major
General NJ. Clay at present making speech
es. ca voice 1.-The son of an illustrous
sire " Laughter) Whether the son of an
ilustrious sire or not he is reported to have
said the president had no power to do as
he had done, that is, issue these two proc
lamations. and if a precedent was wanted
they would now make a precedent forever.
So far as finding fault with Abraham Lin
coin is concerned, the speaker found fault
because he had not suspended the habeas
co,pus, not by dash of the pen, but by IL
rope around the neck Of traitors. Where
upon an enthusiastic auditor says: "We'll
hang them all yet.'' Yes. responded Mr..
Clay, the hanging of such man as Horatio
Seymour would have saved thousands of
lives. Three cheers for Seymour.)
Well, do not believe Horatio Seymour
will be kept very long in suspense. The
young gentl eman who interru pied Mr.. Clay
then says that's So" whereupon Mr.. Clay
says that of Mr.. Seymour is true phian-
th ropy. Now, whether it be philanthropy
or not, leave to casuists; but it is remarka-
bly, suggestive. Mr. Sumner has absolute ly
made speech, and he says it is through
freedom as we'll as by the arms of our SOL
diers thac the war will be waged. By
treedom tn, A bolitionists mean DO freedom
Laughter. Discouragem ent of enlistm ents
he says is recognized seditious and trail
torous; but the discouragement of this other
force, that is, Abolition adopted by the
Government for the suppression of rebel
lion is only another form Of sedition and
treason. Now, see how nicely the argum ent
runs from its prem ses to its inevitable con-
c!usion. First, all persons guilty of disloy-
al practices to be arrested. Second,
any one that differs with the Abolition par
ty is disloval. Thirdly, the Democratic
party differ with the Abolition party, and
therefore the Democratic party are to be ar
syllogrism. Now, this may be philanthropy
c. The same kind of philanthrophy that
can look in cold blood and without shud-
der at the uprising of the negro of the South
ern Sta'es-that can look to- the poss bility
of these States being converted into field
of desolation like St Domingo-tnat sort Of
philanthropy can, without any difficulty, ac
comodate itself to marking out these polt-
ical malefactors to the Provost Marshal, and
recommending them all for the gallows.
The policy of the second proclamation is
exactly fit accompaniment of the first. BY
the first proclaim alton the black men in the
South were melted to effort to obtain a
freedom they can never enjoy, and by the
second proclamation the President announ-
ces that the white man has no rights which
the President of the United States is bound
to recognize. (Great applause.) What is
the object Of this proclaim alton? 1t is di-
recteG to the punishment of guilt? Why
there are laws in the Northern States, and
judges and courts and juries and prisons to
detect crime and bring it to justice. What
is the Of new and unheard of M machin-
cry? Is it directed against the Democratic
party? Is it directed against the Democrat
ic party? Is it directed against the great
mass of people? What, let me ask, have
they done TO deserve this war power to be
exercised upon them? Have not the DEM
ocrats given soldiers to the feld-as many,
l believe or more than any other party
(Cres of More.") Has any party of men
in the United States poured out its life blood
in this war with NJ ore prodigal loyalty than
they? Ono. no") Their dead lie thick in
the swamps Of the Chickahominy and in ev-
cry field of strife where this miserable war
has been waged. Have they grudged THEFT
money? What have they done, or what
nave they left undone that they should be
the target for the insult of every declaimer
of any party?
The Abolitionists say that the Democrats
are not for the vigorous prosecution of the
war. Who but the Democrats have Vi gor-
ously prosecuted the war? [Great cheering.
What is the vigorous prosecution ofthe war?
Is it eternal discussion of the merits Of this
or that General; is it perpetual dissection?
Is it an arrangement by which Lincoln
may be the Commander chiefone day,
Mr.. Summer next day, aud Mr.. Greeley
Tgroans1 Commando chief next day,
.aushter,] until at last no living man Can
tell who IS the one entitled to credit for
success, or who responsible for defeat. "A
cry, Fremont laughter.] am for Wig
oroas prosecution of the war. [Applause. !
Whatever is worth doing is worth doing
