She asked to come back and has been re-
ceired back, and she is the entering
wedge of that series of States which will
come back that way. But if they do not .
come back we are bound to subjugate
them, and then they become territories
of the United States cheers acquired
by the force of arms, precisely as we ac-
ouired California, precisely as we acquir-
ed Nevada-not exactly as we acquired
Texas Is there any difficulty in recon-
strueting the Union in that way? Their
case is-if the ladies will pardon me the
illustratiun-like the case of a wife who
has run away from her husband with
another man and has divorced herself
cannot take her to my arms again I'M
til we go before the priest and be remar-
ried. | have the same feeling in the
case of these people who have gone out.
When they will repent and come back
am ready to receive them, but am not
ready until then. Cheers.
HIS RULE IN NEW ORLEANS.
When 1 left the Department of the
Gulf, sat down and deliberately put in
the form of an address to the people of
that department the executive acts l had
done, and | said to them, " You know
have done these things" [ have now
waited more than three months, and
have yet to hear denial from that de-
dartment that these things were done.
Cheers To that can point as a JUS
LITIGATION of your the Mayors too flat
tering eulogv, and as an answer to every
SANDER and every calumny uttered
against me- The ladies of New Orleans
know whether they were safe under my
administration of the government of that
city. Has any of them ever said she was
not? The men of New Orleans know
whether life and property were safe.
Has any man ever said they were not?
| The poor of New Orleans know whether
they were fed upon the means taken
from the rich rebels Has any man de-
nied that? [Cheers. To that record l
point 1t may be the only answer that |
shall ever make to the calumnieS that
have been uttered against me and mine.
| CCheers.
PROGRESS OF OUR ARMS.
l desire to say single word on an
other subject-on what are the prospects
Of this war. 1t will do you no good to
give You my opinion, simply because it
would be very much like the opinion of
another man; but will show you rea-
son for the faith that is in me that this
war is progressing to a successful termi-
nation. Compare the state of the coun-
try as it was on the lst of January, 1868,
with its state on the lst Of January, 1862,
and tell me if progress has not been
| tho Lot Of 10 $40 tho
Union arms held no considerable portion
Of Mississippi, no considerable portion OF
Kentucky, no considerable portion OF
Tennessee, none of Virginia except Fort
ress Monroe and Arlington Heights, none
of North Carolina except Hatteras, none
Of South Carolina except Port Royal.
All the rest was ground in struggle at
least, and was regularly furnishing sup
plies to the rebels. Now the -ebels hold
none of Missouri, none Of Kentucky,
none of Tennessee for any valuable pur-
poses Of supplies, because the western
part is in our hands, and the eastern
part has been so overrun by contending
armies that all its supplies have been ex
hausted. They hold no portion of Vir
GINA valuable for supplies and that is
one-third of Virginia and oue-half o
North Carolina We hold two-thirdS o
Louisiana in point of wealth and popu
lation. We hold our own in South Caro-
lima, and hope that we shall, before the
18th of this month, hold a little more
Enthusiastic cheeringl We hold al
Arkansas and all Texas, so far as sup
plies are concerned, so long as Admira
Farragut is between Port Hudson anC
Yicksburg. Applause. And l believ,
the colored troops hold Florida by las
accounts. Laughter and applause.
Now let US see to what the rebellion ha
been reduced To the remainder of Vir
ginia, part OF North Carolina, all Geor
gia, Alabama, and Mississippi, small
portion of Louisiana and Tennessee
Texas being, as | said before, cut off.
Now we draw strong hope from this a;
the rebel supplies came principally eth
er from Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri
Arkansas, or Texas, and these sources
are now par&tively beyond theil
reach To this fact | look largely fo
the suppression of the rebellion and the
overthrow of revolution They hav,
come to the end of their conscription
we have not begun ours Laughter
They haze come to the end of their ma
tional credit we have not put ours il
any market of the world. Applause
And why should any man be disappoint
ed? Why should any man say that thi!
great work has gone too slow? WHY
should any man feel impatient? I have
shared in that Impotence myself, ant
was saying to friend bat the other day
when l saw that our navy did not catch
the steamer Alabama, that there mus
be something wrong in the Navy Depart
ment; but l was reminded how Pau
Jones, with single vessel, set the whole
navy of England at defiance and worked
his will upon the English coast, and tina
Lord Cochrane, with single ship, KEEP
the whole French coast in terror agains
the entire French army
ENGLISH SYMPATHY WITH REBELS.
There has been nothing an tho Unior
cause that English orators and statesmen
have not maligned; nothing that we hav'
done not perverted by the press; Will
there has been nothing of sympathy o
