Shall Congress lead these eleven States
through the lihdefinite future, captives TO
make an abolition holiday; or shall another
Congress, aiding The President, enlarge
them Ia the liberty of independent and
self-reliant statehood?
The historian of Rome draws something
from his imag gination when he pictures the
proud Queen ofPalmyra, zeDobia, arrayed
In purple, yet loaded with golden chains
to aggrandize the procession in honor OF
the cOnqnerorof Asias II needs no imag-
ination to picture the fate of eleven
States rot 81 foreign origin, but OF one
blood. language, and history and religion,
following with downcast eye the triumphal
chariot Of congressional pOwert States
whose iPrea is over 725 900 square miles
larger than England, France, Spain, Port
ugal, and all Germany having popula-
tiOn of l0000000; whose annual product
from little pod is greater than the wealth
ch'the Roman bore In his stately gal
leSsto. Rpme from the ROlden'and jewelled
Orientl JCheers. Virginia, too proud,
perhaps, b,it with such grandeur of great
names on, her rolls !. the Carolinas, weary Of
their way wardness, but still the home of
the Pihckneys, who gave the Constitution
to America, and of those who at Mecklen-
berg anticipated the declaration, which at
Kings Mountain consummated our Intle-
pendence; Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mis-
slssippi, whose feet are kissed by the wa
ters of thousand rivers, which, rolling
through the valley of the Mississippi,
gather their volumes of wealth from
Minnesota to Louisiana these are
the 4, subject States led in d fetteTs
at the car Of this Imperial Congress.
tCheprs Such exhibition dishonored the
greatness ofeyen Pagan Rome; they, would
not be tolerated by ambitious France,
which takes Yeneta as a gift from the
Kasier only to set it asa jewel in thecrown
OF q United Italy. lCheers 1t might find
itscounterpart in theg great land-animal of
the North--Russia-i in whose embrace
PROSTATE Poland groans. Forgetting her
own grasp of ireland, England assumes to
be -horrified at the spectacle. Even in
Turkey. the policy, of strangling brothers
by the Sultan no longer makes the traveller
shudder as he crosses the Bosphorus. But
for this christian land of America, the peo-
Iple do not ask such a mockery of triumph
and such degradation of power. [Cheers.
STbeygwin write the epitaph, of tue Con-
Rress which proposes it in letters of fire:
"Here lies the fragment of the Thirty ninth
American Congress, which, starting with
a furtive conspiracy against the President,
with opportunities never before vouchsafed
for blessings, postponed Union; and put
ting the nation in peril of another civil
war, 1t died under the just Indignation of |
an aroused people, and is damned to an
immortality of infamy" [Cheers.l
The above address was repeatedly pune
tuated BY hearty and enthusiastic applause
and laughter. The meeting then adjourn
ed with loud cheers for the President, Mr..
Cox, and the Union of the States.

cepts the principles and objects set forth
in the call for National Convention at
Philadelphia, on the l4th day of August
next. and that the delegates to that Con

Resolred, That unmistakable evidence
is before us that plot and conspiracy is
on foot, and being carried on, by the Rad
icals of Texas, to falsify and defame the
neople of Texas to the people of the
Northern States, and to represent US as
hostile to the Constitution and Govern
ment of the United States, as being vim
dictiye and violent toward Northern eitl-
gems and adherents to the Federal Union
during the late war, and as unjust and
oppressive toward the freed peoplein our

made solely for political objects, to infiu'
snce and embitter the North against
Texas. and to prevent the restoration OF

good order, and to obtain political Will

rendered President johnson for the spirit
of wisdom and magnsnimity in which he
has endsavored to re-establish the FEEDER
