MIR. aREXsrER,s SPEECH.

On our first page, to-day, will be found the
speech of Benjamin II. Brewster, Esq, OF
Philadelphia, at the great Union meeting held
in that city on Wednesday the 1lth OF March.
For many years Mr.. Brewster has been ranked
among the most prominent Democrats in this
State. He has always been considered as be-
longing to the ultra class of his party, and as
favoring the doctrines of the ultra men of the
south. He was generally selected as their
counsellor in the fugitive slave cases in Phil
adelphia. In view Of these facts his present
position is the more significant. 1t shows that
the loyal Democrats of the country have final
ly decided to unite their voices, and stheir
lives their fortunes, and their sacred honors,' -
with the Republicans, in determ ination to
uphold the Administration and the Govern
ment in its struggle with the rebellion, and to
maintain the Constitution and laws against
treason, either North or South. Party hacks
have sought to prostitute the interests of the
country to the interests of party; but the
day Is at hand, when the honest and loyal men
everywhere will spurn all such miserable de-
vices to strengthen the rebellion and injure
the Union. Read the speech by all means.

TIE rRsAsnnAHLE PRESS.

Of all the Copperhead papers in the land
there is not one which has exhibited more ven
ON and malignity than the Cincinnati Ea9ni-
rer. Since fast falls eiec tion il has been rap
ticnlarly busy in trying to excite dissatistac-
ton and desertion among the soldiers. Ho-
ping thus to demoralize aud break up the Ar
my, and to instigate hostility to any means
for recruiting it, In its issue of the 9Th
March was long and laborious effort 10 con-
vince tie soldiers that the war is carried or
solely to create offices, enrich contractors and
benefit the negro. 1t represented the sol
diers as deceived into enlisting in car
ried on entirely for base mercenary purposes.
1t described the Government as withho Id ing
from the soldiers their pay, and squandering
the public money in the support of the ne
groes. 1t held out to the soldiers in the field
the picture of their families neg elected in the
midst Of the fortunes accumulated by the de
signing supporters of the war at home, their
wives and children, their widows and orphans
coming to want, while the Aid Societies were
only means TO prostitute their wives.
In order that the soldiers, as well as the
public generally, may judge for themselves in
what manner these Copperhead editors sps:ak
of them and their wives, We extract the fol-
lowing paragraph from the article of the En-
quirer:
''For them there no profitable jobs and
teeming contracts, even the wages which the
overnmeDt promised them for their services
have been, in many cases withholden. They
and through them their families, have been
neglected. They, their wives and children,
their widows and orphans, are not prosperous.
The negro absorbs the love of the Admi is
tration; and there is more joy over one runa-
way contraband than there is sorrow when
hundred soldiers choose their last resting
place in the untriendly soil of a revolving
country. They went out from among US,
proud hopeful, amid the waving of banners,
the roll of drums and the cheers of stay at
home crowds, each with the picture of coun-
try saved imprinted on his heart and lighting
up the future of his imag ination; they come
back not at all, or on piles of solemn boxes
upon the decks of steamers or they steal si-
lently among us, broken in health, their
dreams of glory all dssipated, and with an
arm or leg less than when t hey departed they
come back to see their places filed, the tide of
life running on unconscious of their presence
and tergetfnL Of their Gbscence-to find their
homes the things they were not before-their
families possibly scattered, their uipes perhaps
under the care of some charitable agent of an
Aid Society, Jcho has found that there are more
ways than one to administer consoLation.''
Is it any wonder that the soldiers find their
blood boiling, and are holding meetings to
denounce these slauderers of their wives.

ARREsr or JUDGE coasrABLE.

We noticed briefly in our last issue that
Charles 81. Constable, Judge of the Fourth u
dicial Circuit of Illinois, had been arrested for
resisting the arrest of deserters. 1t seems
that two Sergeants had arrested four deserters
in Clarke county, Illinois. On their way to
the cars, the Sergeants were taken into custo-
dy by constable, on charge of kidnapping,
and being brought before Judge Constable, he
committed them to Jail, and set at liberty the
four deserters. These facts coming to the
knowledge OF Gen. Wright, that officer order
cd Col. H. B. Darlington to arrest the Judge.
Col. Darlington left with 200 men for the town
in which the Court was being held. He piac-
cd his men at the outskirts of the town, and
proceeded himself, with perhaps a dozen 9th
ers, to the court house, and made the arrest
in quiet and peaeeable manner. He imme-
diately proceeded to indianapolis with the
Judge, who will be tried by the United States
Court. Three of the deserters were rearrest-
cd and also taken to indianapolis.

CHATS THE TALK

At meeting of the 18th Wisconsin regi-
ment, at Camp Butler, Tennessee, some spirit
I'd resolution were adopted "with hearty
good WILL" We quote few pithy sentences
''ClemeDcy to the deluded and the peuitent,
bullets for the rebels, and ropes for those who
"kinde fires in our rear" and we do most sol
emnly warn all such, that, should duty ever
call us home to quench those fires, terrible
retribution will await those who kind lie
them.''
"We do moi fight to free The SLAVES, but we free
the slaves TO stop the fight"
ssWe do most heartily approve the conscrip-
tion law, under operation of which We hope to
see lettering patriotism fastening to render
its due support to the government that affords
1t protection, We hope, also, to see the
''flre In the rear'' men under it enjoying a
clearer view of things in the sunny South,
than can be obtained in the dim lodges of the
K. G.. C.'s.''

UNION LEAGUES.

The Copperheads don't like the Union
Leagues which are being formed all over the
country. In them they see the defeat OF all
their REASONABLE plans. They, therefore, at
tempt to make them obnoxious by declaring
that the members entertain 'tvastly more dan
gerous purposes than were ever contempla-
" ted by Knownothingism." Not word have
they to say in condemnation OF the Knights of
the Golden Circle, whose oaths are of such a
nature that persons who have repented of
joining the latter decline to repeat their oaths
on the ground that they would make them
selves amenabie to the laws against treason.
The object of the Union Leagues, if we are
correctly informed, is to uphold the Govern
ment of the United States. The members
pledge themselves to stand by the legally con-
stituted authorities-to maintain the Constita-
tion-to preserve the Union to maintain the
Laws-and to oppose treason in whatsoever
guise ii may appear. These Union Leagues
originated In the Border Slave States, and to
them are We indebted for keeping Missouri,
Tennessee, Kentucky, Maryla and Delaware
out of the power of jeff Davis aud his traitor
Confederacy. They were the nucleus around
which the loyal men of those States gathered,
and the means by which they were enabled
successfully TO counteract tho poison which
the emissaries OF treason were difiusing a.
mongst their people.
These are the dangerous purposes" OF
which the Copperhead editors complain
well-we admit that they are ssdangerous,"
not, however, to the Federal Governm ent and
loyal citizens, but to the Rattle snake Con-
federacy Of jeff Davis, and his Copperhead
allies at the North. And that is the reason
why the latter are so bitterly opposed to the
Union Leagues. The Leagues are loyal or
ganixations for loyal men, and it is expected
that only such will join them.

y With these Yiewa, giving 10 the people oi
Ihe State OF Delaware information OF my in
tended action. WILLIAM CANNON.
The following is the Proclamation referred
10 n the foregoing
To the people OF the State of Deiarpare:
Ia special me esssge, communicated to the
General Assembly on the third day of March
instant. informed that body OF my purpose
to issue my Proclamation in relation TO the
act entitled ssAn actto prevent illegal arrests
IN this State,' and therein briefly set forth the
reasons which impeled me to this conclusion.
It's provisions are at variance with the inter-
est of the State calculated 10 lessen the es-
timaiion in which her people are held, as
faithful to the Government of the United
States-to embolden those who sympathize
with rebellion and to discourage loyal men
from the performance of their duty, in discov-
ering and thwarting the designs of the ennis
saries of treason.
To the end, therefore, that the evil opera
tiou OF the enactment may be averted, and
loyal citizens may feel secure in their efforts
against foreign traitors and domestic conspi-
rafors. L, William Cannon, Governor of the
State of Delaware, do, by this my Prociatna-
tion, enJoin upon the good people of this State
that they hold true allegiance to the Govern
ment OF the United States as paramount TO
the State OF Delaware, and that they obey the
constituted authorities thereof before the Leg
islature of the State of Delaware or any other
human authority whatsoever.
L further eDjoin, that they be vigilant in
detecting any conspiracy against the National
Government, and diligent in preventing aid
and comfort to the public enemy--that they
promptly assist the National Magistracy when
ever invoked, and that they freely communi-
cate any Information which may the better
able IT to suppress insurrection or to intercept
supplies signed for those in arms against its
authority, and any one so acting, | will save
harmless from the operation of the Statute
aforesaid, of any other Statute, OF like ma
tare, that may be enacted, far as it shall be
attempted TO be enforced against him Tor faith
fully dIscharging his duty to his conntry.
In Testimony whereof, | have hereunto set
rsr my hand and caused the Great Seal of
the said State to be affixed, at Dover
this eleventh day of March, in the year of our
Lord one thousand eight hundred and SIXTY
three. land of the said State the eighty seventh.

this rebellion is BY force of arms, or endless
confusion and rnfn from civil var in the North,
universal chaos aud mob law. We call upon
the President to execute the laws; we cali
upon him 10 enforce the conscription act in or
der to strengthen cur armies in the field with
out loss OF time. We call upon the people of
loyal States to stand by the side of the Gov
erntnent, to support it. and to frown down all
attempts In every quarter to create riots, in
surrections and bands of iawless cutthroats
and robbers. The Jacobin teachings of Val
landigham and Company, as We are advised,
will not be much longer tolerated by the Ad
.IinistraIfon.. When refugee Unionists in the
South are hunted down by bloodhounds,
President Lincoln, no doubt, is inclined to
believe that itinerant Northern copperheads,
in pushing their opposition to the Government
to blatant treason, have passed the limits of
