say to the loysl men Of Missouri, you
don't deserve TO have wives and children
If you permit yourselves to be driven out
of such b State. Since left Kapsas
! hare seen and heard Of Eve thousand oI
the gallant loyal men Of Missouri moving
upon the infected district; and 1 took
particular pains to inquire last night what
orders they had. No restrictive orders;
"Boys, there is the infected district.
there are the bushwhackers. pitch in!"--
My opinion is that will 60 back 70 Kan

Having referred to the great unanimity
with which Mr.. Lincoln was nominated
by the Union party of the nation. be
said
There he is standing az monument to
the world, without suspicion ever having
been cast upon his truth or integrity, for
the reason the people ofthe United States,
with the unanimity which have recited,
selec'ed Abraham Lincoln, of Illinois, as
their standard bearer during the coming
Presidential campaign. But said thar
the loyal men of ST. Louis were divided
today; they are, to.nigh. they are, but l
will not believe, or can l be made to be-
lieve, that when the election day comes
on that any loyal man will cast his vote,
when that vote is to go to the benefit of
Jefferson Davis, for the nominee Of the
Chicago Convention. / don't care BY
what name they call the nominee of the
Chicago Convention--they may call him
McClellan-they may cali him Fillmore
may call him Seymour-.hey may call him
whomsoever they please he ia ye. the
candidate of Jefferson Davis, of the South
ern Confederscy.
Abraham Lincoln is the nominee of
the Union men Of the country jefferson
Davis the nominee of the disloyal men OF
the country. He who casts a vote be-
tween the two. il that candidate stands
no chance of election, casts half vote
for JEFF. Davis, the nominee of the Chi.
cago Convention!
| repeat, that will not believe until it
is demonstrated by actual demonstration,
that any loyal man will cast half vote
for the nominee of the Chicago Conven-
ion. l have this TO say, that if John c.
Fremont stands no chance of an election,
and abraham Lincoln does, that he who |
casts vote for John G. Fremont under
the circumstances, casts half vote for
jefferson Davis. the nominee of the Chi
cago Convention.
The speech was deeply interesting and
earnest in every sentence, bat we have 10
content ourselves with the introduction OF
but one more paragraph. In reference
to slavery be said:
Now, if there is man in the sound Of
my voice that thinks of closing this re-
bellion and leaving the slightest trace of
human slavery, | pity that man. My
opinion is that be is perpetuatipg great
outrage upon his own children, as well as
upon bis country, to leave any portion of
human slavery; that your children will
have to fight the battle over that you are
engaged in now. 1t is to crush out this |
rebellion and slavery With it, that should
be the watchword of the Union men of the
United States. They must both die to-
gether. | have no plea to make to any
Fremont man, l said. II you can vote
for John G Fremont on the second Tues |
day Of November. without aiding the en-
nemy OF your country, why do 50. But
if you fad that in casting your vote for
John @. Fremont you cast vote in favor
OF the enemies of your country, | know
you too we'll, and can say from that know
ledge, that not one of you will cast such
vote as that
