Enthusiastic Audience. [From the New Orleans Crescent, "nil.] Ill response to an announcement made yesterday (lint the Hon. i). W.'Vorhce's, of Indiana, would cyeuiug address the people of New Orleans upon the prouiiuent questions of the..day, the Unll of the House of Representatives, in Mechanics' Institute, was crowded to overflowinp by an audience of high intelligence, among whom were niauy ladies and a large number of the members of the State Legislature and City'Couucil. The distinguished speaker was Introduced by Hon. Duncan S. Cage, Speaker of the House, and was welcomed by enthusiastic "I'f1"'""- *"'v«nninS.to the front of the platform. We subjoin a synods of his eloquent remarks

Ladies and gentlemen and fellow-citi-zens I feel somewhat embarrassed in being presented to you to-night for the first time in New Orleans. I came hither upon business of an entirely private na-. ture, but have felt obliged to consent to the universal request of my many friends to address the people of New Orleans.

At the present time public feeling is feverish. People now look forward to coming events the same aB in the ancient days of Philip of Macedon, when they were wont to ask "what news?" I do not pretend to understand the future any more clearly than any one in this audience, but it is certainly safe for us to look forward and surmise as to what is before us. Tonight. we stand iu a stratage attitude. For the first time we meef'uudcr the same flag, bound together by the will of Providence. I hope and trust that we meet as brothers^ The skies look dark-and there are niauy difficulties to be overcome.^ The Government at this time presents' a strange speatacle. Fouuded as. a ropublic which

conntrv is, .vnLtn-dy. "J nortty. Congress represents one section, but it does not feprcseut the American people. It becomes the conservative element and the mass of the Southern men to "say whether tho South shall'be admitted to Cogr ess or not—whether they are or are not citizens. During the war Louisiana was admitted to representation as a State. TJpou sober second thbught, I think it will be found that you have not lost your citizenship.

The conservative portion of the North polled over two millions of votes at the last election. Mighty army of men—and iu this connection arises the thought on what issue do we unite to-night? I, coining from where the northern waters of the Mississippi rise, with you down here where its waters 'mingle with tlie Gulf. It is this.—.these men declare atthe ballotbox that Louisiana was arrayed iu the imperial robes of a State, aud uot in the garments ot a territory that as a State, she is on an equality with every one front the sunrise of the Atlantic to the sunset of tho Pacific. Let us see whether this issue is, in itself, right or wrong. If it will not stand tho test of the time if it will not stand the test of immutable justice and right, let us abandon it at once. If, on the other- hand, it is what there is that in left us of the Constitution bequcatehd to us by our fathers, then, I say to the people of the South, let us abide by it at all hazards, through rain aud storm, and whatever else may oppose us.

The question then is, have States been destroyed? Can States destroy themselves? 1 know that these States adhere to the Federal 'Government 1 care uot for what they have doue iu tlie past. Let all that go—and let us start' from this stand point, that at the present time they acknowledge their allegiance to the Federal Government.

I say, then, that these States have existed as..States, all the time, like the lost Pleiad, although lost from sight for a time, they yet exist, and dome back to us iu time in all their splendor. If they have uot done so, no one of us to-night can tell of what our GovernTnentconkists if not, no one.can tell the sea of despotism itt which we shall all be swallowed

UP-

The undorsigned would respectfully announco to his friends and the public generally that he has oponed a

I contend that the majority of people are, with me, imbued with hope in the President and in the Constitution. I come to you from a region of snow aud ice as compared to this, yet from a people warm hearted and generous, with assurances thatthey wish no degraded States, no Staled shorn of their ,seals of honor. The tree blasted by lightning forever bears deadened limbs as marks of its weakness, but my people wish you tb bear no such lightning brands:—but to reccive you as States upon an equal footing —as

Supreme Court. Will the President enforce it? If I know Andrew Johnson he will endeavor to protect you.

Hut my fellow-citizens, there are in this connection other weighty questions pressing themselves upon us. It is declared that you are uotStates, and yet they come to you with au amendment to the Constitution, asking you to ratify and accept it. What a mockery is this! For one purpose you are a State—for another purpose you are a territory, llow are you to regard this Constitutional amendment? You. have been officially informed that even although you accept of it, you will not therefore be insured the privileges of a State. You should say to Congress, "We will-hear all your terms first." Concession on this point is the destruction of all State Government. 1 speak to-uight uot merely for Louisiana, or for all the Southern States, but for my own State of Indiana for every State from New York to Oregon.

If the Federal Government can tell 11 State what it must do, then you lose the republican governuientgiven to us by our fathers. The position which I advocate is the position which the conservative men of the North wish you to occupy, aud that is to maintain unimpaired your State Governments. If every thing is to be swept away, aud you have finally to bow your necks to the yoke, let it be somebody else's work than your own. Ah! though a Northern man myself, yet,* in lookiug.over the bloody days which have lately swept oyer this town, I can see in you a highuiiuded, chivalrous people—andj as you have beeu bravo in war, 1 sec you can also obey the laws in times of peace.

When, thercforo, they ^ome to ask you to ratify the Constitutional amendment, ask them why? Once in the Union, there ii uo power to expel a State there is uo power to degrade—no power to diminish her rights as a State. If there bo such power, then I have to uulearu all my teachiugs. Upon this point/my fellow citizens, but a single word more. Even though every yrprd of this Constitutional amendmc'ut were right, this State can uot receive it without opening a breach for the current of .Federal usurpation. I plead this by way of estoppel to the domain! made by a usurping Congress to pass by the repudiation of the Confederate debt. No debt of a lost rovolutiou was ever paid. I pass by the question of pensions and bounties. The people will sec these paid without coercion, I pause, however, at that section which disfranchises nearly all the citizens of the Sonth. Death is preferable to this dishonor. This is a proscription that strikes at thosp who wei^pl'aced in positions of honor it is a prosciption to which uo people can ever give assent without Making th'cir name a synonym for degradation.

Were I a. Southern man, I would rather

orable. Those w'i'tii0K'nuV.!?, are twined, who did what' you wanted them to do, will not be subjected to the executioner or to proscription for no people who ever did au act like this could dare again to look upon the sun, I speak this as the sentiment of a large majority of the people of tlio North. But, my fellow-citizens, there is one other section of' the Constitutional amcndinant, aud that is with regard to universal suffrage: In reality, there are few outside of New England who really desire to force this thing' upon you. In my own State of

Indiana it would be opposed by a combination of 50,00U votes. Now, tho people of the North recognize the question of suffrage as a State institution.

I speak now, not for the wild, insane fanatics, but for the masses. These latter'do u'ot wish to enforce universal suffrage upon you as a condition. They recognize it as a State institution they thiuk that virtue, and intelligence are requisite to a voter, and do not think that this mass of lately liberated slaves would bring to the ballot box the virtue and intelligent requisite to make society secure. It is my duty not to disguise to you that great anxiety exists in the North at the present time in regardjjto the"qUestiou of your representation. But as this is a problem which you are in no condition to solve at present, I merely suggest it for your future consideration. We have confidence in your justice and your prudence. There is another tnattcr to which

I'may here allude. Your State' Constitution and laws with regard to colored men should certainly satisfy the most eager anti-slavery men of the North. I find that here a colored man may own property, and may be protected in the occupation of it that lie may bring suit in your courts—and when, in addition to this 1 am informed that a colored man receives 815 per month with his board and his house rent, and all his other expenses paid, I don't think that any nicu in the North will have any tears of commiseration to spare' for'the c61ored man in New Orlcaus.

I have thus touched upou the most sailcnt points of these questions. There is uo more difficult point than this which I have undertaken—I say, however, that we do not want to confiscate your property. It is true there arc some in the halls of legislation who favor this—that there are some in New England who believe themselves to be in partnership with the Almighty that there are some highminded women who aspire to the desire to cuforce all the bloody machinery that was put in operation during the war. On

States who shall be to them as ^qual sisters. From despair uo flower can bloom, but from hope springs prosperity.. Let us see with what Providence has favored us. A majority of the popular vote 'the support and assistance of the President, and above all, that of the Supreme Court of the United States. With tbfese, why should we despair? You need uot fear the territorial scheme. If successful elsewhere, it cannot be sanotioned by the

tho statute book at this time there is a I law which would take from the widowed mother evcu the bed on which she sleeps, provided her son had been in the Confederate army, and she had given him warning to fly "and escape J'roni being captured.

frage, to allow, all to vote on eloction day with New England Ideas. -This is the progranuub of the extreme men. How much you all owe to the

111

Although, theu, wo have this blessing although, also, tho Supreme Court unexpectedly comes to our assistance although tho majority of the people, North and South, are with us (and they are mighty)- yet you may inquire, "How arc we to avail ourselves of these circumstances— to avail ourselves of that power, to make, it political and to reap from it the benefits which may result?" Time, with its chauges, may be appealed to. If you arc right, you are sure that time will bring relief. Time is the test of truth. Let us, then, be^law-abjdingaud truthful. Let us cultivate friendly relations once more. The whistle of tho steamboat? is row the music of the Union. This day 1 saw a steamboat from my own State of ludiauu discharging four thousand bfirrcls of pork upon your lovee. With one of your hands reaching up toward the great

West, and bringiug tbe.ice all the, great staples of life, you may, with the,cither, beckon oyer the sea to the merchants of the earth to come and traffic,with you.

A few days ago a tariff bill was brought up before the Congress. This is a measure destined to cramp the labors, tho. productive powers, of the groat agricultural fields of the West and South. But while it robs the pockets, it will consolidate tho affections. Take comfort, then, iu the thought thabsoouer or latter you and I, upon thc platform of State equality, shall be once more together. Your starry flag. is there, as it was of old your cscutchcn is there unstained. Bear it bravely. I can not despair of this section of country, I never saw such a wealth of nature spread out, before me in all. my life. And although the oypress may mourn for your gallant dead,, the magnolia will yet. bloom for the Jiving. Although the Mississippi waters may murmur forever a rcpuiem, yet a newt future will spring up to the touoh of industry, enterprise and a cheerful submission to-thc wilLof Providence.

Severe reflection Upon the Late President and his Widow. The Rochester Democrat has au articlc on the "President's Salary" which reflects severely ^pon the late President Lincoln and his surviving partner. That paper advises us that nearly all the ox penses of the White House are paid by Congress, and that all "the recent Presidents" have saved largely out of the public treasury, and then speakiug of the re cent President, says: "Even his balls and dinner parties arc paid for out of the public ptii-so, oi- at least Mrs. Lincoln contrived to fihd public funds for the purpose in some 'icay or other."

The Democrat then gives the items for the support of the Presidency from the last appropriation bill, and with unusu al and commendable candor" explains in justice to President' Johnson thatthey are not chargeable to him.'r It say

With the exception of, light and fuel they are extra appropriations made neces sary bytho absence' of the articles c«r riedoff by Mrs. Lincoln,"

origin who occupies the presidential chair, you will never know. It .is he who has stood between you nnd ruiu, and to night, I say from my heart, "Thank God, for Andrew Johnson the President of 'these United Statos!" Errors ahd mistakes there may have been, but he has adhered strictly to the course he has believed to be right, in spite of .oalumnics such as I have never knowu applied to any body. I say theu, whenevor you see his line of policy clearly marked out, you may conclude it safe for a Southern man to be fouud lliere. He stands as a barrier to those who have tended you.

A Graphic Picture of a Bad Reality. A writer for the Albany N.'iY.
