 "The reception NofGeneral Fremont. last night was one of the largest and most enthusi- astc that ever took place in this city. Fremont Temple was crowded to it's utmost capacity, and there were thousands upon thousands who could not get across it's threshold, or, in fact, hardly get within hearing distance of the Temple. h. side the Temple, while the General was speak ing, the excitement was at fever pitch. His speech, ,.ef which we give verbatim report, was most enthusiastically applauded. 1t gives his views on the manner of conducting the war, ln it's relations to slavery, in clear and emphatic manner. .ss.ss,ssssss.s.rs..- ,gi
 The Transcript speaks more at length:
 " In other columns will be found an account | of the immense gathering in and around Ire mont Temple, and such reports of the speeches as we could find room for. Few, if any, dem onstrations have ever occurred in this city. marked by equal earnestness, and enthusiasm. The greeting of the principal speaker and dis tinguished guest was not so much to the man as to the representative of an idea. The welcome to General Fremont, and the immense applause that followed his simple and direct statements, Were an endorsement of his opinion as to the cause of the rebellion, and the policy absolutely necessary to ensure it's destruction. The re- m ,rks of the General were delivered quietly but with an emphasis showing that they W . the expression of deep convictions, the results of his observation and experience in actual ser vice. The absence of every shadow of egotism and all references to himself, except where needed to sustain his position, was evidence of entire sincerity and unsel6sh devotion to the cause of his country. Whatever may be thot of the military abilities or administrative tai ents of Fremont, it would seem imp ossible t6 doubt the thorough honesty of his patriotism He may or may not be ordered into the f~lt again :; but it looks very much as if by his proc amatcn in Missouri he may yet prove to hav been the Pathfinder of the way to end tn war" @"F f-"
 General Fremont closed his speech at Ire mont Temple with the following burst of elo quence: @ az.sar ~
 "Crowd your patriot soldiers to the field happy in their privilege to be there; make evt ry fight victory. but let the men who fall o those red fields die in the assured belief ths their blood was not merely spilled upon tt ground-that it went to cement the cornerstone
 in the great temple of universal liberty, (gres cheering,) and when the roar of the battle wit all other mortal sounds is fading in their ear
 let them feel that their souls, too are marchin on to join that noble army, (cheers,) of ma tyrs which every good cause demands Justif
 heir sacrifices, and at once by a great ac ac. yourselves on ono of the grand pinnael' O. history And if on that summit the hal
 which surrounds you is tinged with reddene
 light reflected from many bloody field, it wi not come from your setting sun, but will be tt : ght of new and glorious morning which vi illuminate the world Tremendous applaus which was kept up for several minutes.)
 The fneness of the closing metaphor, w1lc could only come from one who had observed n' ture on mountain tops, will not be disputed eve by those unable to see the subject in the ligf which he does.
