a Thrilling Scene.

The Springfield Republican, in its account
Of war meetings in the western part Of the
State. describes the following interesting
and touching scene:-
One Of the most touching, tender and
overwhelming war meetings OF all this re-
gon was held last Monday evening in West
Springfield, at the First Congregational
Church. The people over there are feel
ing deeply for about 40 Of their sons, BROTH
ers, fathers and husbands belonging to the
glorious 10th and 9th Massachusetts Repi-
ments, while others are serving their coun-
try among companies from New York and
Connecticut As previously announced,
Rev. Roswell Foster, of Chicopee Falls.
made the principal speech, exhorting by
historical illusions, the ladies' to higher
patriotism in giving up their husbands, broth
ers and sons.
Alter him came words of weight and
power from the clergy of the place, All
did we'll but the growing glory of the &C.
casion was the simple, natural eloquence of
four heroic young men, all heads Of families.
and fathers of children,--men of strength.
stamina and influence, who backed their adj
vice by that most conclusive Of all argu-
ments, consistent action. Publicly they sub.
scribed the enlistment rCll, and publicly
pledged their "lives" fortunes and sacred
honor"
The first man to enroll himself that eve
ming was householder and practical farmer
one of the select men of the town, and a
church member of % years standing. He
spoke feelingly and pointedly, and in allusion
to.his official honors, his church connections.
his family ties, bis love of home, and the
loss OF darling child, he swayed the audi
tory as the storm-cloud does the forest. Al
most every eye was sufused with tears, and
every heart stirred to its Utmost depths.
The spectacle was as thrilling and sub
lime as unexpected. The next day the
quota OF 26 was nearly flied, and yesterday
morning this brave patriot band left home
amid The blessings and prayers of friends,
for camp at Worcester.
Nearly all are men Of family-some Of
farms and wealth. They viii be missed at
homo, IN the community, in the church and
Sabbath school. The are mostly. sterling
men, leyai every inch. true as steel, and sure
to make their mark on the foe. 1t will be
rare honor and privilege to serve in such
company and with such men-for rarely
have men made greater sacrifice Of social
ties, comfort and property. Rarely have
men gone to the defense Of their country. in
lis darkest hour Of peril. sgrrenderinr So
many cords Of affection. We shall watch
Tie movements of these volunteers with in

slonaries. God bless these noble men. and
cover their heads in the DAY Of battle.

There have been holding a series Of war
meetings in Montpelier. Speeches have
been made by Dillingham;, Colby, Senator
Nesmilh, of Oregon, Hon. C. w. Willard,
and 9th, rs. We give below an abstract Of
MIR. Colby's speech as reported in Walton's
Journal as follows -
But some men say this is not ny ,oar J;
it is the Republican party that is in power,
and MIR. Lincoln is their President; let Mr..
Lincoln carry il on. This was the most alb
surd notion that men could possibly enter
tain. Suppose Mr.. Lincoln, when he came
into power, and his republican friends with
him, had said this rebellion has been nursed
and brought TO life under the infamous and
treacherons administration of James Buch-
anan, and we are not responsible for it let
the Southern States go; it is nothing to me.

we could have said no more against such a
selfish motive than could be said to those
democrats who now hang back. lie eonfd-
ed in honest minded Abraham Lincoln but
there were democrats even in our State who
would yet land in the dark pool of secession,
and he warned all men Of their influences.
and that they look out for bad record.
This whining about the call for more men
and trying TO inaame the people about our
taxes, was kind of rotten democracy which
had gone Off to the South, and left a few
lurking sympathizers behind He learned
his democracy from that old hero who in
the nui ifcation times Of Calhoun would have
hung a secessionists as high as Hannah.
There was no such preaching as secession
in the democratic bible. Some Of the South
ern socessionist were members of the Bap-
list church, but il did not follow that all Bap-
lists were seeessionists the Southern wo-
men were seeessionists, but for that reason
all women were not secessionists.
This was no time party; there was no
party bot the party that could and would
save the country. lie knew some men want
ed this or that in their platform; some want
ed to abolish slavery. But for one he was
willing 10 trust God 10 take care Of slavery.
God says 10 such men now send OF gonr
