RECEPTION IN CINCINNATI. ■A t the Little Miami Depot the gnests vrtfre received on Wednesday by Mayor, Therm's in n n<* it speech, immediately as- ! trr which they were conducted to the Burnet House. OES. CASS* SPEECH. On bis arrival at the Burnet r'oitso, General Gaus was introduced to the immense audience assembled, by Governor ÜBse, who tn « handsome and fit speech, itwo luced him as one of the old Pio.iet-rs identified with the State end West, whohad Served his country in t>>° field and abroad with dignity nn l patriotism, and wi«| now tiPinsj with ability and con-firfeh-e of his countrvmen, the distinguished ofii.-e of Secretary of State. Cass arose, his face bearing the marks of increasing age; but his voice j andhnotion exhibiting a large share of phi. 4. a| strength. li ■ said that the fatigue-. of the journi-y afforded a sufficient ®.®mse for short speeches, but he couldj not Avoid expressing hi? pleasures in agairj revisiting the seenerv with which he watimce familial. He looked upon tiiis Krgs assembly, and scarcely knew more: than here and there one; and they would hard! y recognize him. But there was a titnd when on entering this town he knew every one and they knew him. , He&iad seen the State when it was a wilderift is; where now lie saur tho citizen, be had|Be-en the Indian; and where he had) toen passed on the war path., he no-v C ; une on the railroad; where he had heard the W u tvhoop, he now listened to the j, "hurch going bell. He had been much 1 and return a wiser, if not a bet,pr man. He would tell them that there. *a»fr.ot on this earth, from the rising to ■ -. v ....„ coin

try, a better government, a happier peo- ; pie. The people of the West now hold I the power, and when, on cither hand, or I from any quarter, they her,rd the sound) of Disunion, they shoui 1 say, we have the i power, you shall not disturb this happy ; Union. The Hebrews of old had the pillar i of fire by night and the cloud by day, to ! guide them oa the way. So have you the ! cloud and the pillar, not to guid>- v>ei ,>u I the way, but to say con tin unity, with ; warning voices, ‘Keen sacred the Union.’ I We of the West will hold it sacred and , indissoluble, now and lorever. The general, immediately after the ad- i ! dies-, was called upon by a large number i )of his personal friend”, who were glad to i see the old pioneer in his old range, and ; to pay him the respect v.i ich is due to so I eminent a citizen. Among those pres- ) i ent we noticed, in addition to Governor' 'Chase, Ex-Gov. Reynolds, of Illinois, I i Governor Willard, of Indiana, and man, 1 I distinguished citizens of Ohio, Kentucky ! I aud Indiana. j,, One of th; Reason .. 1 We firnl A.; following instructive reve-1 i l itum in a»late number ot the Springfield . ■ ( Massac!,usetts) Argus: | ‘One of the reasons for the shower of I Fr.'inoiit Sermons in the last campaign jinny be accounted for by the following, j I which is doubtless oneoiscores of similar j ■ instances; 'A cL rgyman in one of t!ie county viii lag- s of Massa'diusetts, a Fremonter, but I nn honest, well- meaning man, was absent; I fr.-iai iii< tlock for a few days just before j I the elect:j.n. On his ieturti he found a i letter encl.'t>>nj a ten dollar bill as a com- : pensati.-v f .• a Fremont sermon which he 1 was requested to preach. The occasion j had pissed the test,. Unlike thousandsi engaged tn tiie sham republican cause, hi- ' I was too honest to pocket the money with- ; [out rendering an equivalent, and therei fore returned it tn tiie lemijter. .
