vice-President Hamlin on the War.

The National Union Club of Philadelphia,
an organization of large numbers and pow
erful influence among the loyal community,
celebrated its anniversary on Friday evening
of last week az the Academy of Music by a
public meeting. Governor Curtin presided,
and among the gentlemen upon the platform
were Governor Pollock, the Vice-President
of the United State, Henry T. Blow, of Miss
ouri, and other members Of Congress. Speech
es were made by Hannibal Hamlin, III. T.
Blow, Leonard Myers and others.
Vice-Presldent Hamlin in the course of his
remarks, said:
''The man who would now clamor for par
ty is unworthy to be a citizen of this great
government. There is class ofinen in every
community who tell us we must have the
Constitution as it is and the Union as it was'
The idea carries with 1t the idea that we
must receive back the men whose hands are
reeking with the blood OF our fathers and
sons--that We must restore the status of slay-
cry where IL has been broken and upturned
The man who argues thus would roll back
the tide of freedom flowing over ransomed
territory, and bring back TO power the trail
tors who have sought to destroy us.
MAN is everywhere TO stand erect in the
dignity of freedom. The tide of emanci-
patton is not to be rolled back, but to be roll
ed on. We are not to close this war until
the cause of Is removed. (Long applause.)
We are to stand upon higher civilization
even than that given to US by our fathers
We are going TO plant this government upon
basis of freedom that shall render it stable
for all coming time. The progress toward
that result is fast and rapid. No man can
tell the precise time when this rebellion is to
be broken, but the signs of the times already
show US the beginning of the end. 1t is now
narrowing. Its limits are circumscribed. The
hope of a division in the North has been one
of the great and paramount causes that have
buoyed them up. But the North is united
from the pine forests Of Maine TO the old
Keystone state, for constitutional liberty ov-
er the Union.
"The rebels see it and feel its effect. An
other hope that stimulated them was. that
the resources of the north would not be con-
tributed TO the government They were
again mistaken. They have failed in every
thing. When they see this fully, the rebellion
must and will come to an end"
