willfully: lGreat applause. There i
not living man on earth, that eve

Northwestern -Confederacy or that wa:
IN favor of dividing this Union by AMI
means-and / want his man Storey ht

AS for his charge against me for re
scruitlng tor the rebel army, it is too in
famous and damnable to notice And as
to my insulting Douglas in Springfield,
or anywhere else, it is as false as hi;
but is he not pretty man to call me to
account for insulting any one for being
g3eef we're Ba nds a Is he Eat ts
he speaks OF. | came with Mr.. Doug.es
from Springfield to Joliet. I heard him
with pleasure at every station on the
road, in the advocacy ofthe cause of Ills
country. After leaving him at Joliet, |
came next day to Chicago; met him at
the fremont House-staid with him,
talked with him with reference to the
condition of the country. 1t was the
last time | ever met that great patriot
and statesman. We parted as friends
And yet this vile wretch, this animal,
this crawling, Shiny creature, asserts
that insulted him because he was 3
patriot. 'aaa
q Does this lnan Story know is own
history! Laughter. If he does, he
knows it is TOO infamous to be written or
published. Heis man, most certainly
poorly fitted for heaven, and the devil
would seorn his presence if he were to
appear before him tonight When God
in His infinite power created this uni
verse, and all the living and creeping
things therein, among other things He
created frogs, snakes, lizards, and Shiny,
miserable, filthy things; he then looked
upon them and they were not low and
mean enough to manifest his power, and
he must create some vile thing that will
be viewed with disgust aud loathing by
all the balance of created things-He
then created this vile, loathsome, crawl
ing, creeping, filthy thing Storey, of
the Chicago Times. CGreat applause.

Now, in'erder to show you what an
infamous SANDER this man has perpe-
trated upon me, l viii read you a para
graph from letter which wrote on the
31st of December, 1860, to Judge ]. N.
Haynie of Cairo. Judge Haynie is low
present wrote from Washington City,
d. c.:
"Entertaininr hanas41-, al --;z,l,zy7.7

to that would not modify them in any
way, consistent with the honor OF my
constituents and myself, to give peace
to the country. ezH,1
This was the kind of letter | wrote in
1860. This will show, at least, whether
I was recruiting for the rebel army. 1t
will show to this gentleman whether he
and agreed then, or whether 1 was
Union man then, and he was conceivlng
treason in his own heart. Cries of HE
has no heart. 1t is by such men as
these that the people are deceived. 1t IS
bv people who have neither character
themselves, nor can they give character
to ANYBODY else, and the only capacity
they have, is the capacity for detama'
ton. By this man, and such men as he,
the country is kept in turmoil and
state of decentralization from one end to
the other. This man is fit subject to
90 with Vallandigham, to run with hun,
and to advocate his claims for the Gov
ernorship of Ohio, man who never
could say a word against jeff. Davis oI
his conduct, but always utters sentiments
advising his country to peace with re
bellion and compact to support the IN
terests of secession. The man who cOulC
do these things is fitting associate fol
