 1t will require all your energy, all your Fstrength, sll your endurance, to restore hope to our people or vitality to our State: We can expect nothing from the Government of the United States, whatever party may be in pow er.s The Convention at phia-where the North and the Soutb. hurying the past, were to re-establish liberty. equality, fraternity
 - has declared the platform"upon which the Conservatives propose to enter the next can yass In the declaration of principles which compose that platform, I see it announced that the brave soldiers and sailors who suppressed the Rebellion are entitled to the thanks of the Nation that the debt incurred .ip the holy crusade is to be sacred, and that all Confeder- ate debts are null and void. We pension the men who forged our letters; but the soldiers of the South--men with empty sleeves or on crutches, such as are seen around me now are to be branded as outlaws, rebels and trai- tors. No fostering hand of paternal Govern ment soothes or cares for their widows and orphans The country and the Government for which they fought. like their hopes. are dead, and they are tbrown on the cold charity of the world. It is our duty to open our hearts and our hands to our brave disabled soldiers, and care for the families of those who fell in our defense. Whatever mayi hayeo been the result of the cansein which theyd fell remem- Der that they died for us, fighting. as they hon estly believed, to make us free. They offered up their lives willing sacrifice for their coun- try and shame on the man who would not help, those, who have lost their all ir our be- half. shall never turn my back upon any brave soldier who stood by his banner to the last, though that glorious banner may forever be farled though now7s.
