two leading ideas, which, ut that period, wher

admitting the seeded States, / say there were
two leading ideas, which is generally accepted
throughout our country, if generally adopted
as rule of action for the general government
aud for the State governments, would go fal
towards establishing complete and permanent
paci fcation throughout the country One con
Germs the relation of States to the general gov

citizens under the recent constltu-

and blessings should be enjoyed by all States
and all sections (renewed cheers), and that the
general government should deal upon the same
principles, and by the same methods. with

established and acted upon would be so far SO
we'll. What is the second 1t is like unto

must 60 one step farther. All governments in
this free country is at last = government of
public opinion. Public opinion is back of the
national government. It is back of State gov
ernments. 1t is public opinion that rules in
this republic of the United States. (Oheers.)
When therefore come into an assemblaee of
my fellow citizens to talk about the duty of
the government, reach back beyond the gov
eminent to the individual. Who is Governor,
or who is President to-day pass away, but the
people and popular judgment, and their ruling
opinion, will last through generations and ages
as we hope. (Cheers.) D..
Now, as to popular opinion. Let us be sound
on these two great leading ideas and principles.
Let every man see that he can form a part of
that popular sentiment and opinion, that he is
responsible for what he can do to direct Alright
the general conduct of the country az to the
rights of States and to the rights of citizens.
The misfortune of the old time was that there
was in that country two popular opinions.
There was the popular opinion of the slavehold-
ing States and there was the popular opinion of
the free States. Now let US strive to be equal
to our opportunities and the new and improved
condition of our country. Let it be Understood
hereafter that in all things there is but one Popu-
lar opinion in our country and which is to decide
as to every important event. Having said this
much would finally appeal to maxim of the
old native American party which did not live
long (cheers) for settlement of this whole
question. did not happen to agree entirely
with that old party in reference to naturaliza-
ton, (cheers) but it did have at it's basis one
sentiment with which am in complete and
entire accord. (Cheers.) 1t is the
sentiment of that party in regard to the union,
the sentiment of that party as expressed in the
motto: 1.-THE Union, the constitution and the
governs the whole business of to-day. Let the
popular sentiment sustain that old principle
and with favorable condition Of pecuniary
and business affairs, we shall enter upon IN
era of prosperity, which will be the envy Of
the civilized world. prolonged cheers.)
