THE FESIANs-SpEEcH OF GENERAL SWEENEY
At CHIcAGo.--A public reception was given to
General Sweeney and " President " Roberts
in Chicago on "Wednesday night, at which &c
neral Sweeney used, in the course Of Il lengthy
speech, the following language:
II am not here TO discuss the plan and de-
tail of the campaign. II would be TO adYer-
tiSc them to the enemy, as has been too much
done already. | will say, however, that We
have not been idlc-that | have strong hopes
for the future, and for the ultimate object we
are banded together. This outpouring OF the
friends and supporters OF our cause Is evidence
of that. IChCcrs. | can say that large pur-
chases have already been made of arms and
raw material, and that contracts have been
entered into under sanction Of the Senate.
This viii convince You that we are III earnest ;
and in order 10 carry out our project You must
support us. You must support the Senate
with your money, and enable II 10 fulfil its
contracts, and support me with bayoucts 10
fight its battles. CHEERS And If you do, |
pledge You my word OF honor that 50 far as
am concerned, YOU viii not find me wan ting
Renewed applause l would earnestly call
your attention 10 the position we occupy nj
present, not only in the estimation OF
this great and friendly American people
but also in the eye OF the world. Think OF
the disgrace, the infamy, Of 4 failure now
We have boosted long and loudly that wc
would and could break the yoke that binds our
native land to the car Of British despotsm
We must make the attempt or sink into PIT
of degrade lion that no lrishman on this con-
tinent could ever rise irOm-a degradation that
would cling around the memory OF lrshmen
for the next century. We must do al least
one great deed before we fail-aSSIll the enemy
on his weakest point, with arms In our hands
and leave the issue 10 the God of Battles, OF
Justice, and of Liberty. Cheers. l said my
support of the Senate was based on their prac
teal operations and if you support them in
that polcy-the war policy, the policy of
Immediate action-as soon rs you are ready we
are. Do this, aud the Irish name will be
relieved from the disgrace of Il failure now.
We must not fail; we have the fighting men in
the country, and can arm them if you will.
Wcm not fail there is no such word In the
heart of brave man. He may fall, but will
fall with honor and dignity, and on the field of
battle; every drop Of blood shed will be the
harbnger of future success. With rifles In
our hands, with lighting men that ! know can
be raised, and with the wrong OF centuries 10
ayenge there is such thing as fail.
