upon whom everything depends. He
shapes the COMMITTEES, What OF your PEN
sion Com mittee then? Would it not whit
tie down the s3O,O00,O00 you now pay
your mamied aud crippled soldiers 7
What other danger is there from this
surrender to confederate feelings and inter-
ests {? Already they are asking at the
South pay for for their emancipated slaves
as | estimate it about two thousand nil
lion dollars nearly as much as our national
debt--as they estimate it not less than four
thousand millions. In Maryland. by the
act of Democratic slave owner in the State
has been placed on file. They propose
bye and bye to bring in these lit.le bills.
They have done the same thing in Ken
lucky. Another thing-there is large
confederate war-debt, all unpaid. The En-
glish government has stoutly urged us to
pay it, claiming we succeeded to the debts
Of the South by ovcrthrowing the Rebel
government the same as the French Re-
public succeeds to the debts of the fallen
Empire. Our files are loaded, too, with
vast claims for damages. The men who
hold them say you have accomplished your:
work, surrender to u.s. What will they do
with the constitutional amendments? The
Thirteenth provides for the abolition of
slavery. Whether they would repeal that, L
do not know. The Fourteenth provides
that the leading rebels should not come
back to Congress, that your dept should be
paid and theirs never. Democrats in Con-
gress have declared they would repeal
that amendment, and the fifteenth with it.
You see what if we surrender power, they
will attempt to do. Is our work done? If
you have a railroad into which
men put their capital when it is risky, are
they not the best men to run it when it be-
comes safe Fulton built his steamboat
on the Hudson, some said it would blow it
lp; others that it would burn. The old
captains believed in wind and sails.
But the steamer neither blew up nor bur-
ned. 1t walked the water against the wind
and tide. "Let us run that boat" said the
doubters. When trial proved its success,
they cried give us the helm Gentlemen
we have run this government in its one
great trial in the face of discouragements,
and predictions of failure on every hand,
and like Fulton, we do not propose to hand
it over to conservatives who believed in the
wind and sails and told us it wouldn't run.
At this point, Mr. Scofeld proposing to
stop, was greeted with cries of "Go ahead"
and for half hour more discussed the fnan-
ces, the currency, taxation, etc., and at
late hour concluded amid general applause.

Il say, boys, why don't you go out west?
There's demand for boys at the west, and
a society in New York that sends them out
free of expense. Go there and make men
