sand dead, disgrace American name be-
fore the world, and bow your necks to
the rule of rebels and traitors, and you
can have peace; but it will be the cold

But, God be praised! there is a shorter
and nobler way to peace. 1t is through
that all-powerful weapon in a Republic
the ballot. There is our safety in
this crisis, as in every other. That is
the repository of the virtue and wisdom
and strength of the people. It speaks
voice shriller than the rebel yell,
louder than the Democratic howl, more
potent than both. IApplause. You

The tidal wave of the people is coming.
It surges Westward and Southwark

enthusiasm. and will heave the wreck
of rebelism and Democracy over the
grand cliffs Of the Pacific, to return no
more. Great applause. Not q day
has passed since the rebel Democracy
chose its leaders, that it has not crum-
bled away. On every hand patriots
abandon it to its dreary fate. All that
is wanted for the salvation of the coun-
try is, that every patriot do his duty.
And it will be done. And then, with
the rebel Dem ocracy cast out, broken

liberty enshrined more closely in the
hearts Of the people, and the rights of
man guaranteed more firmly to every
human being in the Republic, this great
nation may sit down under Grant, the
deliverer, to the works, the fruits, and
the glory of a real and enduring Peace.
[Great applause and enthusiasm.

SEYMOUR IN 1S61.-On the first day Of
February, 1861, Horatio Seymour made
speech in Tweddie Hall, New York. in

the SIDE OF secessionists of the South.
among other declarations he made the
following: - 'Ao

aerrate the South. and thus subject our

ingiorlous warfare. Even successful co

l
Democrat-Just wait till Seymour is

how to settle the bond question. Well
pay every dollar of them in greenbacks.

Republican-Pay the bonds in green
backs, eh +? Do you think that would
| be fair and square way of paying the
| debt !?
D.-Of course, and then we should
save the interest.
R.-Will you be kind enough to tell
me what you think greenback is /?
D.-Why, it is government note, of
| course.
R.-Very well. If it is a note, then
it promises to pay something. Let us
see. hold here five dollar note and
| find it says: tsThe United States prom
ise to pay the bearer Five Dollars at the
Treasury in Washington" Now, what
are those five dollars that the United
States agree to pay9 Are they not five
pieces of paper or five stones or five
bits of iron?
D.--Of course not.
R.-It is five dollars in gold that the
note promises to pay, is it not
D.-No doubt about that, suppose,
but don't see what you are driving
at
R-Wait g minute and you will. You
mentioned my $500 bond, just now. Let
me tell you how got it. In 1862 sold
some horses to the government. You
see my sons were in the army and
could not do much at farming myself
and did not need so much stock. For
those hoses I got five hundred dollars
In government notes; that is, the gov
eminent gave me its note. promising, as
you have acknowledged, to pay me in
gold. It could not pay the notes but
the agreement was that it should pay
them as soon as it could. The govern
ment said to me and other holders of
these notes-'We can't pay you now,
because we are engaged in a tremendous
war, but yon may exchange the note S
for bonds, which we will pay ia twenty
years, and pay you interest every six
months in gold, and We shall claim the
right to redeem them in five years if we
are able"
D.-Yes. but it was not agreed that
the principal should be paid in gold.
RI beg your pardon but it was
agreed. True the law did not say so
explicitly, but neither had any previous
loan law said anything about gold, and
yet every dollar the government ever
borrowed was paid in gold. Three Sec
retaries of the Treasury published let
ters stating that Jay Cooke, the fnan-
cial agent advertised that they were, and
everybody that bought bond distinctly
understood that to be bargain
D.-Can't help that. We are not
bound by what Chase, or Fessenden or
Jay Cooke said.

THE BATTLE NOT ENDED.
MY FRIENDS For more than seven
years our country has been struggling
with it's enemies; for more than seven
years, either in the halls of legislation,
at the ballot box, in the assemblies Of
the people, ut our homes, in the tho
Toughfares Of business, or on the field
Of battle, and sometimes in all of them
together, the loyal men of the land have
watched and labored and fought for
their country. Three hundred thou
sand Of them, fighting, died the death
of patriots, tha. their CO untry and ours
might be saved, and it's free instit utions
transmitted to their children and ours,
solid and grand as when founded, and
unmarried by the sacrilegious blows Of q
most causless and atrocious treason.
Aud now, over the graves Of those three
hundred Thousand dead, the struggle is

Oldest principles of common law that
the principal is bound by the acts of his
agent. The people of the United States
were the principals and the Secretary OF
the Treasury was their regular authoriz-
ed agent.
D.-But the agent did not go accord
ing to law when he agreed that the bonds
should be paid in gold. .g......t
R.-If he was disregarding the law,
why did not Congress, the law making
power, which was then in session, pass
an act to restrain him ? They did moth
ing of the kind, and no one dreamed that
the bonds were payable in anything else
but gold until Pendleton started his doc
trine year ago. But let us go back to
my own case. I exchanged five hundred
dollars for promissary notes, payable in
gold as you have acknowledged, for
bond. Now, you say Seymour and your
party propose not to pay me the bond,
but to make me give it up and take notes
for it.
D.-Yes, that's the doctrine. Green.
backs are good enough for the bond
holders.
R.--But after you have taken my bond
from me and me take a note, you will
OF course pay interest on the note !?
D.-Nonseuse ! It is to stop the inter-
est that we propose to pay the bonds in
greenbacks.
R.-Then you propose that the gov
ernment shall pay me no interest on what
it owes me. When do you expect it will
pay these notes?
D.-I don't know as they should ever
| be paid Keep them in circulation, I
| say. -ert-+ ~ s.
R.-Oh now begin to see through
your scheme. You don't propose that
the government shall pay either interest
or principal Of what it owes The gov
ernment takes my property and gives
me its note for it. It says it can't pay
the note. but will give me bond draw
ing interest. You propose to take away
the bond and give me back the note, and
when mention the interest you say you
| will pay none and when l ask for the
principal you declare you don't intend
to pay that either. You may call this
honesty and fair dealing, but it looks to
me nightly like rascality
D.--Can't stop to talk any longer. I
am in a hurry.
R-Hola on moment, friend. Here
is neighbor Jones who says you hold
mortgage on his place for five hundred
dollars. What is honest for government
is Of course honest between man and
man. Mr.. Jones says he would like to
have you give up the mortgage and take
his note payable when he gets ready to
pay it and drawing no interest. This is
what you said the government was going
to do by me, you know.
D.--Can't stop. Must go down the
street to see q man.
R--Sorry you are in such a hurry.
Come around again Iwant to talk with
you about where you are going to get
the greenbacks from to pay the debt
