Continued from Fir.-t I'aje.j educated, and as we extern! the institution of free schools ami a free press throughout the South, let the ripht to vote go with these great blessings, and our free intitutions which can be supported ftiid perpetuated only by the di'inion of intelligence among those who are armed witli political power will gam strength as time rolls on. Ltit those men who are nor agitating this question propose to commence in the South, where the negro is ignorant and has been imbruted by the institution of slavery, while here in Indiana, where the negro is intelligent ami educated, they treat the question of giving these men, Lere in otirrnidv, the right to vote as a matter of no concern. As sr.on as the popular mind has been educated up to the proper standard, the pprjndices frnhift the negro will ii:ippear and justice will be meted otit to all. I do not think that when Thomas Je1!'erfon penned the Declaration of Independence and put into that instrument the glorious t.entence that "all men are created free and equal, anil were endowed by their creator with certian inalienable rights, among which are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness", and that to eenre these, (io-vernments were instituted among iuer. deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed ;" I say I do not suppose that

Thomas Jefferson bei;-ved that the people would at once put that sentiment into practice, but that he was willing to leave it to the ameliorating influences of time and to that mighty car of progress, whoso wheels turn not hack, and whose coii.scniiiiation will be in the brightness of the latter day. And the history of this country, yes, the history of the last few years, proves that he was not mistaken. Ten 3'ears ago nothing was thought of arresting a run-away slave, manacling him and bonding him back to his master. Now where eo'.iM you find a man who would be willing to do anything of the kind. When I first entered the army it was a common thing to hear our soldiers 6y that if they thought they were fighting to free the negroes they would throw their muskets down ami go home. Sow where is the soldier who would put back the institution of slavery, even if lie had the power to do so? Src have amended the organic act of the nation striking down the institution of slavery, and I believe that the principles of humanity and justice, the dignity and honor of the Covcrnment demand that we secure to the negro the freedom ve have given him. 1 care not what it takes to do this, if it be l'leedmeirs Hurcaus, Standing Armies or any other necessary agent, for lie must be secured all the immunities and privileges of a citizen of the United States. I am in lavor of making him equal before the law. I want no law between me and the negro. I am not afraid to enter the intellectual race of life with him. If he out strips me it is all right. If the God of the uiiiverttc has seen fit to endow him with a better brain then he has me, that is not his fault; or, if he has been more studious in the cultivation of the intellect Cod has given him, and has thereby made himself a more intelligent nuvn than I am, that should be set down to his credit and to my disgrace. But there are some men in this coun try who want a law between them and the negro, wlio are afraid of this thing of amalgamation, who, if they have not a law between them and the negro, that the first colored woman that they meet in the road will ruh into their arms and amalgamate iucui l ight otl Laughter. J lint I do not think that my t'oppet head friends need a law of this kind so bad as they think they do, for I do not be lievc that there is a respec table colored woman in the country, anywhere, that would think of marrying a Copperhead. Hut I will tell you what kind of a law I am in favor of. If I were in the J-egis-laturo of Indiana, I would vote for a law that would fine and punish any negro who might be found associating with or keeping company with a Copperhead. Laughter and Applause. J I do not believe that free society causes amalgamation. The history of all nations proves thrt truth of this assertion. Take for instance, China, the oldest nation on the face of the globe. In China proper, you find as separate and distinct races of people as they ever were, lint when you get over on the borders of China, where the Tartar race predominates, there you find a mixture of the races. Now, this will hold good in Ilindostan, in Persia, in Asia, everywhere. The Jews, a people who have been scattered ail over God's earth for fifteen hundred years, are yet to-day as separate and distinct a race of people as they were when the Koman eagles, under Titus, glittered in the streets of Jerusalem. Why ? Because they are free. They have the pride of race that all freemen exhibit, wherever you find a free man, I don't care if it be the wild Indian in the forest, if he is free he has a pride of distinction in his own race. I am in favor of expunging the 13th Article of the Constitution of this State, and all laws made in pursuance thereof, known as the " Black Laws. " I believe they are a disgrace to the State, because they say, even to the negro soldier of Indiana, who went South and fought ever so valiently ; though by his couraje and his prowess he may have helped to plant the stars and stripes, the ensign of the nation, the emblem of liber-tj-, everywhere, upon the dome of every rebel capitol in the South, yet when he returns here, this copperhead law meets him at the confines of the State and says to him, you cannot enter here. But the Southern traitor, whose hands and garments are dripping red with the blood of yoar fathers and brothers, or the draft sneak, the skedaddler to Canada, who staid away during the war and fied his country when it most needed his services, they can return ; there is no law that keeps them away. I say that this is uujnst, because I believe in justice to all men. I belieTe it is oue of the attributes of the Almighty God, which is as immutable as his own nature ; as high as heaven, as deep as hell, broad and boundless as the universe, enduring and everlasting as the Eternal Throne itself. I wish to say a few words about the democratic party and the record it lias made for iuelf during the war. If I had the power I would write that record of treason and infamy upon the American heavens so that every man and woman might read it in letters of fire. When the rebels under Beuregard and .Jeff. Davis were at Manassas, and Abraham Lincoln called for 75,oiX) volunteers

to defend the capital Against the torch of these conspirators, these copperheads paid Abraham Lincoln was a traitor and a despot. I heard Vallandingham say that Caszar had Lis Brutus, Charles the II had his Cromwell and Lincoln had better take care if he would avoid the fate that orei took them. He did meet that fate and his blood is upon the hands of the democratic traitors who by their teachings incited the assassin to the commission of this awful crime. The democratic leaders and newspapers decried the currency of the country and said the green-backs would never be paid. Men who love their country are interested in its eredit. These men did all that was within their power, all through the war, to weaken confidence in the national credit and to depreciate the value of the national bond. These

men bound themselves together in secret, mid night cabals, to plot against the Government and exerted themselves in every possible way to induce Union soldiers to desert ; secreted them from arrest; assassinated United States enrolling officers and mobbed Provost Marshals and draft officers. They did these things because they were opposed to the j War lit UriCIOC Wl Hit ii i . go, they declared the war a failure and an unjustifiable waste of blood and treasure. When the Government laid its strong arm upon that inhuman wretch Wirz, and after convicting him of crimes that in their infamous brutality excelled the darkest record of depravity that the history of the world records, executed bim upon the gallows, every democratic j leader, every democratic politician and ) everv democratic newspaper in the na- j . , . , , - p t, rt,, tion declared the execution of this fiend j itoihiR.v but "a judicial butchery." ! Now these men did not thus stigmatize the action of the Government because of any conscientious scruples against the shedding cf blood. They are on the record in this respect and cannot plead any excuse of that kind. When old John I'kown invaded the State of Virginia nnd made an attack on Harper's Ferry he committed treason against that State. He was tried and convicted. When the Governor of that State, Henry A. Wise, was appealed to for the pardon or respite of John 15rown he refused on the ground that the crime of treason was so great that he could not interfere to save him. Ahd I have never heard that a single democrat has found fault with Wise for not thus interposing. It was all right to hang John lirown, according to these copperheads, but "judicial butchery " to execute Wirz. Wise himself has since committed treason against the Government of the United States, and his olfence is as much more aggravated than that of John Brown's as the whole nation is greater than the State of Virginia. Is there a democrat anywhere to be found who would consent that ! Henry A. Wise should be tried, convic ted and punished for treason ? This proves that the opposition of the copperheads to the punishment of traitors is not in consequence of their opposition to capital punishment but because they are in sympathy with treason anil traitors themselves. And they cannot shake off this record. If you will take a cop' of any democratic newspaper published in the summer or fall of 18G4, you will see at the head of its editorial columns, in large letters, " Klectioueerincr Documents for Sale. " Prominent in this list of documents 3011 will find the "Great Speech of Alexander Long," in which, as yon all remember, he opposed the prosecution of the war, and denounced it as unconstitutional, stigmatizing the administration as a Jacobin club and a nest of traitors. Now the object of circulating such documents as that was to get people to believe the ideas that these documents advocated. They wanted the North to submit to the rebellion and ac cept such terms as Jeff. Davis might dictate. This was the position of the deraocrattc part y two years ago. Now, since our armies have conquered the South, and that section lies prostrate at the nation's feet these copperheads ask us to let by gones be by goues, bur- the past, and let us all be friends together. In concluding his speech Col. Gray referred to the recent address of Mr. Jihan, to the votes of this District, in which that gentleman claimed that he ought to be re-nominated because he had so much more experience than any other candidate. The speaker showed that if that was a sutlicient reason for re nominating Mr. Jt LiAN now, that it would be a still better reason two years hence, and in fact, if that consideration was to govern the case we had better make out a title deed to the office, for Mr. Jcliax, sign it and hand it ever to him at once. A gentleman in the audience asked the speaker what lie taought constituted a State ? Col. Grat replied that when Congress passed an enabling act, authorizing the people of a territory to meat and form a State Constitution, and after that Constitution had been presented to Congress and approved, if there was a suilieient popolatiou to entitle such proposed State to at least one representative in Congress, that that body declared them entitled to be considered a State, and then admitted them into the Union. The gentleman wanted to know if it was not men and women that constituted a State ; and if there were not enough of these in an' State who were loyal to entitle them to a representative in Congress, would such State not cease to ex ist ? To this Col. Gray replied that if there were not loyal men enough in a j State to entitle it to a representation, he i was 'Tilling to wait until there were-i enough. The rebels had beeu thirty ! 3-ears trying to get out of the Union, and if it takes them thirty years to get back into Congress he had no complaints to offer. The difference between Mr. Julian and myself is that he is willing that rebels should vote, provided the negro is also allowed the ballot, while I am opposed to a rebel voting at all. Applause. There is continued activity in Fenian circles in New York. The funds and arms are still flowing in. It is reported that O'Mahoney has, within a few days, sent off an expedition of 5,000 men to some point unknown to the public The total force under Sweeney ap to this date is given at 53,000 men. In the meantime the Canadians are busy with preparations to meet any emergency. Bostox, March 14.

Colonel Gray's Speech Congressional Nomination. We publish to day the excellent speech of Col. Gray, delivered in this city at aiarr iiau, wutcu we copy irom last i Saturday's Telegram, and we commend it to the careful perusal of our readers, as embodying, we think, views that will meet with their heart approval and endorsement. But a short ti me will elapse, before ' the Union men of this District will be called upon to choose a candidate to j become the standard bearer in the con- ! tejt at the next general election, and it behoves all true Unionists to consider well the claims of the gentlemen asking their support, and then to act upon what they conscientiously believe to be for fa , int0rests of the party in the : District and State. No man has any claims or life-lease upon the Union par- i t3 and, considering the squabbled con- j dition it has undergone in the past, by the rivalries of various political aspirants, let us now show to the People of the State, that we can unite upor. comnion ground and do not intend to jeopardiz? the State Tickett ftn(j proballv in- . , . . " . volve it in defeat in consequence of the 1 divisions among our own partizan friends, to please a few politicians who have no higher regard for the interests of the great Union party, than to make it subserve their own mercenary ends. The course of Mr. Julian, since his advent in political life, has been such as to make enemies and create discoid in the ranks of the dominant party in this Congressional District. These feuds and quarrels, have been intensified and increased with each succeeding canvass, until now we have been made the jeer and laughing-stock of the entire State. This is owing, in a great measure to the vindictive and uncompromising selfishness of Mr. Julian. This assertion will not be denied, and is substantiated by his record from 147 to 1866. He has been a common scold and political growler has quarrelled with every public man in the District during that period. He has used the patronage of the Federal government to foster and con tinuc the schism among our own political friends. He has dispensed the offices under his control to political huxters, who were ready to do his bidding, ami ignored altogether the many gallant and mertorious soldiers who were disabled in their country's defence. lie never visited a battle-field, hospital, or regiment of soldiers raised in this District or State, after they had left its borders, to cheer the weary veterans, contrioute to their comfort, or alleviate their sufferings. Upon the contrary, he manifested no sympathy with the oflicers and soldiers ; but steadily traduced and maligned the State authorities and growled at the administration of the lamented Lincoln, during the entire war as he now does at that of Mr. Johnson. He belongs to that class of men who live by extremes and are continually dissatisfij ed, aud whiue and growl at every measure not originating with themselves, and which docs not nicely accord with their peculiar views, and abuse all who will not become their willing parasites and tools. Had Mr. Julian been a resident of the South instead of the North he would to day have been as bitter a rebel as Henrj' A. WiscWigfall ,Yaney, or Jeff. Davis. No man who is acquainted with Mr. Julian will deny this. Like most Southern extremists, he mistakes bitter vituperation and intemperate invective, for argument, and lacks the dignity and sincerity to become a states-i man. As long as Mr. Julian remains the candidate of the Union party in this Congressional District, our troubles will iucrease, and the effect will be to destroy our usefulness, and our quarrels may loose us the State. The People have no interee t in these bickerings and are tired of being misrepresented and emboiled in the quarrels of politicians. There is only one way to settle this matter, and that is by throwing aside all feeling and nominating a new man. We believe Colonel Gray to be a gentleman who is entitled to the fall confidence, respect and snpport of the L'nion party; and, believing this, we shall support him with all our humble ability feeling confident that, if a full vote can be obtained, he w;n receive a handsome majority at the A R clectiori -- All Right. Senator Sherman has had an interview ' with President Johnson, and the latter j is said to have stated that he had no wish or purpose to invoke any issue or ! estrangement among his Republican ; friends and supporters. He admitted : that he owed his present elevation to the j men of that party, and that while in j some matters he might differ in opiuion ' with them, he did not purpose to set up his individual opinions against their combined wisdom or desires. In regard I to the copperhead fawning and flatteries ' which have so annoyed his republican ! friends, he said he had been in political ' life too long to be deceived by them. I The interview, as reported, toaether i j with expressions known to have einanat- j ed Trom one of his firmest adherents in the Cabinet, inspired a more hopeful J feeling.

Ha does not go into these details, but clearly his meaning is as we have expressed it. The amount of the testimony before the Reconstruction Committee is that we have a sick man in the South a source of wesknes-1 a vast territory offerin the inducement of opportunity to foreign and domest'.c eneanes. The real question beVre the cnuntrr is : How are we to cure this unfortunate condition T How are natii'nal health, wholeness and strength to be restored ? That is the question of questions for us as a people. It is before us and upon us.

" The military force is needed to prevent the indulgence of private animosities by the people. General Thomas reports favorably upon the condition of the freeduien, and says they " have no difficulty in obtaining employment at fair wajjes ; " and that another year of the Freedmen's Bureau would be enough. In this his testimony conclusevely sustains the President's veto.

Tho Vindication of Secretary McCulloch. The raid upon Sccertary McCuiloch has run a brief course. Mr. Clarke, one of the subordinates of the Financial Department, lead the assault with a stan-

ling array of figures, accompanied by a declaration that the Official report Of the ! rviblUHed r.4 -ineTcna- I Secretary, as pabhshed, was mc. , biy erroneous." In support of this deela- , ration, Mr. Clarke organized the Third House, or Lobby, and intruding himself House, or Lobby, and int ' Fn the fioor of C ongl -ress, displayed quite as much energy in the prosecution cf jjjp case as he has heretofore displayed - , , 1 i , -pi,;. in the legitimate duties of his office, lhis intrusion was sharply rebuked by Long John Wentwort't, who demanded that Iobhv be driven from the floor of the House. Mr. McCulloeu unwilling to compromise his position by a newspaper wraugle, proceeded at once to invite the closest scrutiny of his financial statement. The Committee of Wsvs and Means proceeded with an investigation and in a report to the House, fully vindicated Mr. McCuiloch by the unqualified indorsement of his statement as 'correct.'' This crusade upon the distinguished Seeertary of the Treasury, considering its source and its ingnomintermists in ttie House. It is the misfor- j tune of Seeertary McCuiloch to stand firmly with the leading members of the , Cabinet in support of the President. He j has thus fallen under the displeasure of s the Great Head Center of the House, j and the maresnest which Mr. Clarke dis- ! covered furnished the opportunity for assault. The damage to the public j credit by the "inexcusable"' misstate- j ment of Mr. Clarke was not taken into j account. Millions upou millions of our ( securities are held abroad, as well as among our people at home, and such ! reckless and unfounded imputations upon the iood faith of the Seeertan- of , the Treasury are miSClllCVOUS in the CXtreme.
