HORACE GREELEY ON SECESSION
Extract from his Speech in Cincinnati, Frida!
Evening, September goth, 1872.

Evening, September 10th, 1872.
As the Grant papers and speakers are
persistently and maliciously misrepresenting
Mr.. Greeley'a views on secession, We propose
to keep the following extract from his
speech before the people until after election.
Mr.. Greeley said:
Last evening, at Pittsburgh, in the
course of some off-hand remarks to q
mass .ssembIage like this, I took the pkins
to explain the circumstances, the extra
ordinary, unprecedented circumstances un-
der which | was impelled in the winter OF
1860 and 1861 to Uffsr, in good faith. to
50 bmit the whole question of union or dis
UNION 10 the fair, 1nconstrsinsd vote of the
| Southern people. After due delibeia Oh
and discussion, l SAID then, that it was my
belief, and il is still my belief, that had The
people been allowed such = free and fair
opportunity, they would have decided that
the Union should be maintained. Those
remarks, which made last evening, have
been misrspresepted; have been, l think,
perverted into an expression Of present be-
lief and present conviction that any Stats
has right to dissolve this e MON NJ its own
good pleasure. FelIow-oiIzeDs, | utterly
repudiate and condemn that sentiment
Cheers do not believe that any State
or any zen States, even . majority OF th.
States, has right to dissolve our Union
Applause. That Union was founded OF
the Constitution. Il 10 a chartered Govern
, ment, not mere league Il does not con
stisute COnfederacy merely, but q Nation
} not Government OF limited aud defined
\ powers. but of unlimited duration. | be-
) lisye that the Union il not only destined tt
. be, and was intended 10 be, perpetual, but
4 believe that our great civil war, if there eve
Q was any reasonable doubt as to the natur
y of that Union, has settled that doubt for
: ever Renewed applause.

INDIANA AND VICTORY

4
Writing before the October elections, We
said 4 If our friends carry either one OF the
"thres States We shall have the better chance
OF success in November. TIE other side
must carry oil three TO give them the better
"prospecI"
We hare carried one of them, and the one
most desperately contested. We have over
| thrown the abless Of the cabal that have led
the President to his ruin-we would say,
also, the most interruptions, If, in this hour
Of Pennsylvsnisis shame. we could forget
Simon Cameron. Thomas A. Hendricks 10
elected Governor Of Indiana.
Wshave no desire to nnderrate the gravity
of the situation. We have been e0ustsd oul
Of Pennsylvania, which We should have car
ried. We could easily have dispensed with
its vote in the Elsctoral College but the
moral eject of the loss 10 dtpressing, to Q
greater extent than the humber of electoral
votes would indicate. The work 10 made
harder for Us in New York, harder for our
brethren IN all the States We mean TO carry,
BY The triumph Of Oamerons money, in the
success OF the Peniien'iarY candidate.
From this day till the FIRST Tuesday OF No
vember, We shall have upon as steady, con-
tinuous strain.
But we shall win Our Liberal Repub bill
cans did well in PennsylvsDia. 10 parts OF
Ohio they won q signal victory, while the
Grant majority in the State is handsomely
reduced 10 Indiana the Liberal and Demo.
cratic victory has been won in the face OF
such lavish efforts to kill the free suffrage OF
State BY importation aud by midOight
oiphering as even Morton never attempted,
and neither he nor anybody else can again
achieve.
And now We are in the open field 1t is
no longer possible TO concentrate q Cabinet
Treasury, all the patronage and all the
moaey Of the National Administration on
two or three States. Thirty-sevsn State.
cannot be gagged in Q night, like North
Caroline aud Pennsylvania, or overpowersd
BY sheer weight like Maine. On the broader
field the contest assumes fairer aspect
and Indiana gives ne the omen of victory
Under her inspiration The splendid Liberia
Rspublieau aud Democratic orgapizatioDs
in Illinois declare they can win /; and, know.
ing their work and their power, We believe
them. Consider once more the list of States
as it may fairly be placed to-day, in his
light of the elections within . week in Geor
