Dr.
Senator Morton Arrived in Blooinington, Tuesday evening, Sept. Sel, on the excursion train, as it returned from Bedford. While here, he was the guest of Hon. Geo. A. I'uskikk. At 8 o'clock, Tuesday night, a torch-light procession, led by the brass band, marched to the residence of Judge Busk irk, and in answer to persistent calls, Senator Morton appeared,
and briefly thanked his friends for their demonstrations of welcome. On "Wednesday, the 4th, the people began coining to town at an early
hour, and by 12 M. the streets were
thronged. Before the hour desig-
i natcd for the organization of the
meeting hail arrived, the scats in the Court House Yard were occupied, and all available standing room was filled. The appearance of Senator Morton, upon the platform, was the signal tor tumultuous cheering, and after order had leen partially restored, George A. Buskirk was selected for Chairman. In a brief an.l pointed speech, the .fudge acknowledged the compliment and introduced the Senator,
who then proceeded to make one of
the solid, comprehensive speeches, for which Morton has attained a celebrity. He referred to the peace and prosperity which we as a Xation enjoy, and to the fact that our relations with European Powers were becoming daily mere satisfactory. The President's foreign policy was referred to. Gen. Grant was pre-

ian20'70 none at Cincinnati. As iemoorats
: were expected to mount a Republican platform, he advised them to ! get upon that constructed in good i faith, and abandon the spurious one
! presented as a trap. Applause. j They were obliged to purchase as i many Republicans as possible and
public ; y "wr innuence tney hoped they
coma attract enough to be successful. Trumbull having lost caste in the
Republican party by his vote against
mpeachment was one ot the tirst
procured, but they didn't want him
tor President, because he was not as
available with the South as they desired, and hence they took Greeley.
Horace Greeley was not the choice
of the Northern Democracy, but of
the Ku-KIux of the booth. Greeley was the man whom they had described as the worst man in the Nation : the man for whose fool ¬
ish sayings they were always trying
to make us responsible. He wi;s
so repugnant to them that it was
said in Indiana, the Democratic
mother frightened her unruly children into subjection by telling them
that it they were not ohedient,Oreeley would get them. Laughter. The question was then, why did the South prefer Greeley ? Because
he was an advocate of the right of
secession, and he was the only Republican in all the North who took 1 th.U ground, and from the Oth of
November, 18G0, to the time when Sumter was fired on, he continued to advocate it as a natural and inalienable rightjputting it on a higher ground than any man did in the South. Senator Morton quoted extracts from the Tribune of November 9th, 1860, and February 23d, 1861, to show that Greeley was a sincere advocate of secession, and said these doctrines had never been disavowed. To the colored men he said that had the advice of Greeley been ac-
Iceptcd, shivery would have had a ! new lease of life, as the corner stone ! of a Southern Confederacy, for such it. would have been, had Greeley's
advice been accepted, and the "wayward sisters" been permitted to "depart in peace." "When the country rejected his advice, and tho war was begun, Greeley became a rampant war man, and originated the cry "On to Richmond," and later, when Grant was pushing forward, he was for a compromise with the South, telling Mr. Lincoln that the country' was bleeding at every pore. He wanted to be sent to Canada to negotiate a peace. Among the terms of this peace were a recognition of the South, and tho payment for the slaves, and this is, to-day, used as an argument in his favor, in Kentucky. Greeley did go to Canada. Although Mr. Lincoln escaped his importunity, the war was prosecuted, the South subdued, and the next thing, seen of Greeley he became the advocate of universal amnesty. Shortly after this he quite unnecessarily took a trip to Richmond and signed the bail bond of Jeff. Davis. As soon as he was liberated he was one among the first to take the blood-stained hand of Davis, who was responsible for the starva tion of those whose dying groans were within reach of his ears at the Libby. It is vain to say that he did nob know it, for we knew it here in Indiana. The case wa3 far different with the prisoners at Camp Morton, where they were fed better than they were at homo. He had, while Governor,made arrangements to send supp'ies to those starving prisoners ir the South, but in but
few instances did they ever reach ,or' i1"'1 lw
them,' The clothing was used by rebel officers, and, for might he kncw,the delicacies might have gone upon the table of Jefi". Davis himself. What is the platform of universal amnesty? Amnesty means an entire oblivion of all the incidents of the war, and if all distinctions on account of the rebellion were to be wiped out, then it must mean the pensioning of rebel soldiers; the payment of the claims of the rebels for losses of their slaves, nnd payment of the rebel debt, elsa there is a distinction on account of the war. He quoted at some length to show that the cry against "centralization" meant (hat the General Government shall not interfere to prevent Ku KIux outrages,butshall leave the rights of all dependent on the States themselves. This is all that the Ku Klux can desire. Under this state of things, the Ku Klux com Id subject the negroes to a state of vassalage worse than slavery, and drive the white Republicans into exile. He quoted from Horace to show that there were Ku Klux "in vast numbers" in the South, and that he held the Government responsible for their extinction. Horace repeated that he had always indorsed the Ku Klux acts ; and said if the Govern
ment could not enforce the net, it nil i
was .1 muia ana a snara. x nese utterances were made but a few months before he became the Ku Klux candidate, and made the pledge to them that was, in effect, that if he was elected thcGovcrnmcnt should stand neutral when the Ku Klux overawed or abused the colored man., Greeley's speech in Vicksburg where he expressed the hope that the rebel soldiers would occupy as high a position in the hearts of the people as those who fought under Grant and Sherman, was quoted. If the South were restored to power they would never consent to be taxed a dollar to pay pensions to Union soldiers, without their's were equally provided for,and so too with
the matters of losses and the public
debt. lney would require payment to rebels for their losses, their debts and for their slaves. Old Governor Akin told him that he had inventoried his slaves, had them appraised and perpetuated the evidence, so that some day his children should be paid for them, and hundreds of slaveholders had done likewise. The position of the Northern Democracy through the war would compel them to vote for the pay
ment ot slaves, because they had always maintained that emancipation was wrong. It was true that the Fourteenth Amendment forbid it, but they had never acknowledged that, except in the Cincinnati platform, but that was a disguise. Whenever the Ku Klux went forth
to murder the wives and children of the colored people, they went in disguise, and this was nnrt of the
Kn Klux programme. The Democrats of the North, except a few of the leaders, haves noth
ing to gain m the election of Greeley,except to vote to tax themselves to pay rebel losses.which he did not believe they were in favor of. The Senator then reviewed the prosperous condition of the country the steady, reliable, flow of business, consequent on a wise, settled
and well known policy. There was
rid of uncertain paper money, half of which was counterfeit nnd the rest doubtful,as in the days of Democratic rule ; but the paper money under the National Banking law was good at all times and in all places. We could not afford the experiment of electing the flighty old man.
c have a good President now ; the in'eiests of the country are well cured for, and ii was best to adhere to a President who cared for the
public we I tare so well. Ho briefly referred to the charges against (Jen. Grint, spoke of his character :is a man of deep,calm intellect, of strong practical sense, of extensive knowledge, endowed with a i excellent memory and wide experience, though not a talker, a IViculty of making the greatest and most diflictilt subjects simple and plain. He is a man of exemplary life, as a son, husband and Hither. His military achievements and services to his country are above valuation, and hnve made his name one of tho most famous in history. He was the great emancipator. His success in civil administration has earned tho respect of all the world. Who is it proposed he shall be set aside for? Horace Greeley, a man whose whole history shows his unfitness for the great business of a President, a man of crotchets, and 'iiobbies,Hiid political gimcracks,who rides his hobbies to death. If Grant was to be beaten, it was to be done by hard lying. If all the lies were admitted, what of it ? The people had no faith in Greeley, fie had written a great deal on subjects of which he knew nothing. He had told what he knew about farming, but there was scarce a farmer who didn't know more about farming than he. In concluding this part of his speech, he asked if there were any soldiers present, and if so, he called on them to raise their hands. Immediately a large number of hands were raised ; and, as they fell again, he asked if there were any there to represent the dead any who mourned relatives lost in war; and again a large number were raised. The speaker then referred to General Browne, candidate for Govern-
1 spoKe of him m high terms, j
urging them to sec to it that he is j
elected. j The Senator closed his adelress by exhorting the people to stand by the old party. To stand by the State ticket. To heartily support the Congressional and County ticket. To be of good cheer and abiding courage. We had the word of Horace Greeley when it was worth infinitely more than now, that Gen, Grant never had, and never would be bea'lcn. At the conclusion of the address the Senator was greeted with hearty applar sc. The. enthusiasm ran high, nnd three cheers were given for Grant & Wilson, three for General Browne and the State ticket, and three cheers to the toast proposed by Senator Morton, "that the soldiers that wore the Rebel uniform should NOT occupy as high a position in the hearts of the people as those who fought for the Union." Senator Morton was compelled to curtail his remarks,as arrangements had been made for him to take the train going uorth at 2:27, nnd afterwards stated that he could have talked two hours longer to the assemblage, as he had their entire at
tention, and that better order was maintained j thet Bloomington meeting, than at any one he had attended in the State. There were at least five thousand persons on the
grounds, and the streets, outside of the Court House Yard, were full of
people who, being unable to get; within hearing distance ( f the speaker, had gone away. REMOV ED TO WEST SIXTH STREET. Bolleubacher is in the room one door east of Dunn & Go's Building,
