Mr.. Brown, of Toledo, followed, briefly re-
viewing the history of the rebellion, its in
ceptiOn and progress. He denounced Val
landigham as a traitor, and said if he had
talked half as much treason in the South
against the Southern Confederacy as he has
in the North against the United States, he
would have been hung to the nearest tree.
Fernando Wood, of New York, he compared
to Benedict Arnold, and then begged pardon
of the shade of Arnold for the comparison.
he expressed his faith in the ultimate triumph
of the principles Of freedom over human op-
preston,
The President, Mr.. White, asked to be ex-
cused, as he had an engagement. Mr..
Smith, of Columbus, was called upon to take
his place.
Mr.. Cooper, of Butler, spoke against the
amendment giving one percent of teachers
salaries towards paying volunteers, because
he objected to tho principle, If the volun-
teer system had been done away with long
ago we should have been better off. He be-
lisves that the country is entitled to the serv-
ices Of her citizens and can require them.
Mr.. Cooper was driven out of East Tenues-
see because he was o MON man. He has a
good deal Of Parson BroEulow in his com
position and his speech ressmbied the speech
es of that eminent patriot very much.
He said his house in Tennessee was for a
long time an asylum for teachers who we're
making their way North, being driven out Of
the South because they wero suspected of en-
tertaining Union sentiments. AS to preach
ing politics (ME- Cooper has been a prsacher)
he said be beliyed that We did not commence
to preach it soon enough. We ought TO have
begun it thirty years ago. IGheers.l 80.

no great victories, but when we make e God
and Liberty " our battle cry then may We
expect to achieve success.
