Lamars EulOgy Upon Jefferson
Davis. the Traitor.

The following is the text Of the main por-
ton Of the speech of Lamar Of Mississippi, in
which he so outraged the feelings of all patri-
Otic men by ranking Jefferson Davis, the
traitor, with George Washington:
Mr.. Lamar-The only difference between
myself and Jefferson Davis 10 that his exalted
character, his prceminent talents, his we'll
established reputation A. statesman, as patriot
and as soldier, enabled him to take the lead
in the cause to which consecrated mysclf.
and to which every fibre of my heart re-
spOnds. There was no distinction between
insult to him and the Southern people, ex-
cept that he was their chosen leader and they
his enthusiastic followers, and there has been
no difference since. Jefferson Davis, since
the war, has never counselled insurrection
against the authority Of this government
Not one word has he uttered inconsistent
with the greatness and glory Of this American
republic. The senator from Massachusetts
can point to no uttersnce Of Jefferson Davis
which bids the people Of the South to cherish
animOsities and hostilities to this Union, nor
does he cherish them himself. The 6enator,
it pains me to say il, not only introduced this
amendment but he coupled that honored name
with treason, for, sir, he is honored among
Southern men. He did only what they
sought to do; he WAS simply chosen to lead
them in cause which we all cherished, and
his name will continue to be honored for his
participation in that great movement which
inspired an entire people, people who were
animated by motives as sacred and noble as
ever inspired the breast Of Hampden or
Washington. I say this ~ q Union man to-
day. The people Of the South drank their in
spiration from the fountain Of devote to lib
erty and to Constitution and government.
We believed that we were fighting for it, and
the senator cannot put his finger upon one
distinction between the people of the South
and the man whom the senator has to-day Sc
lected for dishonor ~ 4 representative of the
South. Now, sir, do not wish to make any
remarks here that will engender any excite
ment or discussion, but say that the senator
from Massachusetts connected that name
with treason. We all know that the results
Of this war have attached to the people of the
Sou the technical crime Of rebellion, and
we SUI nit TO it. but that was not the sense in
which the gentleman used that term as ap-
piled TO Mr.. Davis. He intended to afix q
will not say he intended it, but the inevitable
effect Of It was to afnx upon this aged man,
this man broken in fortune, suffering from
bereavement) an epithet Of odium, an impu-
tation Of moral turpitude. Sir, it required no
courage to do that; 1t required no magnsnim-
ity to do II; 1t required no courtesy; 1t only
required hate, . bitter, malignant sectional
feeling, and . sense Of personal impunity.
The gentleman, I believe, takes rank among
Christian statesmen. He might have learned
better lesson, even from the pages Of my
theology. When Promstheus was bound to
q rock II was not an eagle, it was q vulture
that buried his bsak in the tortured vitals Of
the victim.

From the New York Tribune.
Tho Pending Contest.

Il will be the duty of the President.
within . few days. to submit to Congress
''inicrmation regarding the state of the
country" and particularly information
bearing upon the causes which have
brought about an extra session of Con-
grsss for the second time since his inau-
gnrstion. This gives him rare opportu-
nifty. The whole people will read with
attention . message discussing forcibly
and frankly tho questions At issue. That
the President may properly discuss them,
at the very threshold of the session. is ap-
parent when we consider the grave misin-
formation and general ignorance which
prevail in regard to the topics in dis
pute.
A Congress composed of intelligent and
candid men, for instance. would certainly
not commence q serious struggle with the
Executive to'force the repeal of any stat
ute without asking what had been the
practical working and effect of that statute.
1t would then become the duty of the Ex-
utive to inform Congress under what cir
cumstances, to what extent, and when, if
ever. troops had been employed at the
polls to suppress violence. Why is it not
eminently proper for the President to
place that information before Congress at
the outset II troops have inn case been so
employed during his term of office-if. in
fact. there have been no troops stationed
within the States where such violence has
occurred. or where they could be so
smployed--it seems very pertinent for him
to state the fact. II there has been re-
lance upon the solemn pledges of South
srn statesmen that if all troops were with
drawn. they would guarantee that peace
should be enforced, and that every citizen
should be protected in his rights and if,
Notwithstanding those pledges. many out
RACES and acts of violence have gone un.
punished. that fact is also pertinent.
In respect to the election laws. there is
peculiar necessity for information. Very
few citizens know what the laws are.
Very few indeed know what has been the
practical result Of their enforcement. or
what number Of cases are now in charge
Of the proper officers for prosecution,
against whom or where. We have no
doubt that information on these points can
Be given from the Official records which
would startle the country. and 20 far to-
ward shaping public opinion in respect to
tAs election laws and the necessity of
maintaining and enforcing them. 1t may

Candidates for Aldermen.

All the republican candidates for Alder
men are entitled to the full support of the
party. They are strong men, not one OF
whom sought to be nominated. but all
came forward at the call of their fellow
citizens, and accepted as duty the posi-
tions assigned them. We ask republicans
to stand by them to-day cordially and en-
srgstically. Spare no effort to swell their
vote. Work for them early and late. Let
Us have board Of Aldermen obedient to
the laws Of the State, regardful of person
Il rights. not under the dictation of any
young TsmmAny club. and not in favor Of
exchanging New England republicanism
for the KnKluxism of South Carolina.
