HORACE GREELEY M GERRTTr SMITH I N
R1cHMoND.-A dispatch from Richmond, pub
lished in the Washington Chronicle says:
Horace Greeley and Gerritt Smith, who
had com on to sign Mr.. Davis's bail bond, are
addressing the people at the African Church
tonight. The Church was densely packed by
an audience about equally divided, and an as
semblage equally as large was gathered outside.
Governor Peirpoint was on the stand.
Mr.. Greeley explained the obstacles that
had impeded reconstruction, beginning with
the assassination of Abraham Lincoln and
coming down to President Johnson's policy.
The obstacle now was the unwillingness OF the
Southern people to give the negro any rights
they were not obliged to give. When this was
overcome there would be peace at the South.
The South had the opportunity presented to
it by Congress to give these rights itself, but
had refused TO do it. Upon the subject OF
confscation Mr.. Greeley was emphatic, urging
the negroes not to look forward to acquiring
lands in that way. He wished to see them
own farms, but they must work for them, and
they need not expect to get them 10 any other
way.
Gerritt Smith followed in short address
He said the South was not alone TO blame tor
the war, which had been brought on by the
North through its support Of slavery, which
was its immediate cause. 1t had supported
slavery because it had pro6ted byit. Ii had
drawn the milk while the South had held the
COW. He strongly opposed coD6scatioD, and
told the negroes not to look forward to any
thing that was so hopeless. In ~allusion to
rumors Of riots he had heard since he came
here, he urged the negroes not to give way to
lawlessness and to avoid any approach to riotous
conduct.
Judge Underwood, who was both cheered and
Kissed when he came forward, made a short
