it contained all that was hest of the principles
of the Republican party, and that the Cincin-

NEEDS OF THE SOUTH.
/ As travelled through Virginia and North
} Carolina noticed many waste and empt Y
places. Your country wants. filling up.
Mr.. Secretary Boutwell, says you want i'm
migration. 1t is true, you want immigration,
and the best kind. But Mr.. Boutwell, says
TO secure it YOU must have Republican rule
that the Democrats don't want immigration.
Now, | ask the many Democrats before me il
this is so? II there is man here opposed TO
immigration let him answer. IA pause. No
reSponSe.] Then it cannot be so. But Mr..
Boutwell, says also that you must hold out
inducements to the immigrant. A good sys-
| TEN of general education is an iDducement
and the Secretary says you Democrats are
opposed to education, Ii there is any man
here opposed to education let him
speak. l hear no answer, and con.
cludc that Mr.. Boutwell, was mistaken
about this also. But, in order to
have education, there must he an educa-
tional fund, and these cannot be the friends
of education who steal the educational funds.
Yet Mr.. Boutwcll's political friends in this
State have done so. [Appla,lsc.] The Sec
retary Slys also that in order to have immi-
grafton you must have good government.
immigration is rcpelled by such occurrences
us that in Ahmancc county 4 short while
ago: but these troubles have ceased, under
the great banner bearing the inscription OF
I" Hands cla>pcd across the bloody chasm."
But Mr.. Boutwell, forgets other social dis
orders that are occurring. He fails to see
the folly Of inviting immigrants to bring
their money here to be stolen by carpet

million dollars from the State of North Caro-

no RECONCILIATION WANTED.
General Schurz then alluded TO Mr.. Bout
wells strange words that this is no time for
"cErSping hands across the bloody chasm -;
that there must be no reconciliation 1T this
time. lie could not conceive how it was
possible that any heart could be so obdurato
It's not to rejoice when the hand of reconcile
alton is offered by one sincerely dcsrous Of
peace. How Gun Il man delight in war when
peace is att,inablc? We have all heard oI
the Puritan of the old times who delighted
in hanging Dt:scnters and burning witches
Thank God. the spirit Of witcll-burnng la,
: left Massachusetts long ago but it appears
that there are yet some i'll that State who
cannot sleep unless they burn their witch 4
day. [App!ause and hughtcr.]
: There are men still who live ~ intlamin9
the anmo<iticS that have divided our people
Why is this dcne2 For no reason but thai
the party leaders know ti:st unless the war
rry is kept up the Radicals must 20 td tll'
bottom. As soon rs the North and South
arc rcconciled there is no longer need for 4
war party, and those 9~ho lived and thrivcd on
the war cry must 90 under 1t Is for party
asccnClancy that reconciliation is to be pre-
vented. TO this end the archives of the
dead Confcdcracy are bought and the coun
try is treated to the details OF the plans OF
rebel emi>Sarics for the burning Of northern
cities. 1t is like burning the cfhSy of Gay
Fawkcs in England to keep alive the hatred
of Roman Catholics. Foiidiiately, the en-
Iightcncd spirit of England has outgroWl
that hatred, and is the public spirit of the
United States behind it!
A thief was arrested and carried before q
magistrate: "My good fellow said the
magistrate. "Why d'd s"u steal this
thing" "Why, your Honor" replied the
thiet. Il must live" Il don't see any
necessity of it, rejoncd the magistrate.
Now, in the same way, we ask the Radicals,
"Why do you wish to prevent recon-
cilation 2" They reply, owe must pre-
serve our partisan power" | say do not
see anv necessity for the preservation Of that
powcr at such cost. Ii a~Iarty cannot
prosper without such prostitution, without
supporting the war feeling, and tearing open
sectional wounds, It ought not to prosper at
all ; and this is, | say, the fatc deserved
by the Republican party.
WORD TO TIE REPUBLICANS.
The speaker :t,,lressed bis Republican
friends. You say this talk ab0rt reeopcilIl'
ton is all very well, but are your southern
brethren willing TO accept the situation, ana
will they live up to their promises? reply
we make men better by trusting them; many
I Good intention I'M. been blasted by silspi-
c;ou. Already the southern Democrats have
given the best proof of their sincerity. What
mean these men nllying around the banner
Of Horace Greeley? Who Is he? Is he not
him whom YOU have so long praised as
one Of the ablest. boldest, and most
honest leaders of the Republican party
Rut now that he Is nominated 1or
President. it suddenly dawns upon you That
he is the sum Of all vifiainics and the origin
of evil. rLaughter.1 He was an oriSl'ial
and lifelong Abolitoni>t, and justihed the
reconstruction policy of Congress. i"C
means it, then, that the South supports hun :
