Gov. FEXTOV, of New York, favars the necessity of sustaining the national credit, opposes contraction or tho currency, and opposes any attempts at forccd payment el the debt, favoring postponement until the country has rccuperatfid. fie endorses negro suffrage, and holds that ai. i'r»e fall of the Confederacy tho Southern States were deprived of all civil Governments. President Johnson'3 courso is denounced and Congress commended.

PrBtNO the fire at the Military Asylum, in Maine, a barrel of whisky that was rolled out and ordered to be destroyed, was taken in charge by v.ime of tho soldiers who were able to hobble about. They were intoxicated in short time and commenced figlitiBg lights took place bp. tween one armed and one legged men. The scene in the laundry building was one fearful to witness men fought each other with the fury of demons' they were so crazed by the liquor they obe/ed nothing. Men laid dead drunk in the snow and could not ba aroused.

THERE is a largo collection of porsotu at Indianapolis, and tho delegates to tbe Democratic Convention is said to bs of a better class than usual.

IT is said that General McDowell is a better Republican than Gen. Ord, and is an especial friend of Chief Justice Chase. It would be amusing if tho sequel should prove that A. T. had caught a tartar

THK pressure of the times on the various manufacturing interests of the North is becoming daily manifest. In various parte of the country very considerable re* duction in wagos is being made. All this is hard on tho workmen, yet it is better than compelling the manufactories to slop.

CONORESS has a good deal of work to accomplish during the remainder of the session which was resumed yesterday. We trust both Houses will go to work at onco on our financial questions and digest and adopt such statutes as are needful to put the monetary affairs of the nation in some good shape. This is the great matter in which the people are now interested. All other questions are secondary to this.

THERE is a movement at tho Post Of fice Department looking to the reduction in size of tho various postago stamps now in use. It is insisted that by reducing them to one.half of the dimensions now used that an immense saving to the Government will result and no inconvenience to the public. If this is so, why not reduce the aizo at once The Government need9 sav* in everything possible?

THE Washington Post of the Grand Army of the Republic, has passed resolutions urging on Congress the adoption cf some measures by which the Heads of Departments connected with tho Government will bo directed, in reducing clerical forces, to rotain soldiers and discharge ci vilians Grst. Unquestionably, it is the will of tbe people that tha soldier? who saved the government, should in every case, have a preference for the places of honor in its gift.

OMB of tfie principal men now at Washington assisting A. Johnson to run tfco Administration, i9 Jeremiah S. Black, It was he that induced Buchanan to be* liavo that tho Government had no power to coerce a rebellious State, and thus af« forded the Southern rebels time as well as opportunity to consummate and. porfect their nefarious plans. Andrew Johnson was no sooner seated in the Presidential chair than Mr. Black appeared in the back ground,and by his subtle acts ingratiated himself into the friendship of that functionary to such an extent as to bo* come his evil and controlling genius. In his testimonybefore tho investigating committeo, Mr. Black acknowledged to have framed the message vetoing the Mil for the more efficiont government .' the Rebel States, passed near the close of previous session of Congress. It has si ice transpired that ho also prepared tbe recent messago on the subject of General Hancock. Humiliating as it really is to the pride of evory loyal man, yet His an sndeniable fact that he is tha controlling element at the White House at the present time, and is responsible for much of the evil that has befallen the country, by

SENATOR MORTON never makes speech that ho don't wake up tho Democracy ami create a flutter among the soro heads in thoir rank*. In his recent speech at Washington^ he said irvtny truths that Democracy will have A hard time to got round. Already the papers of that party are opening their batteries upon him in the attempt Id dmlpale lits arguments.— They have a heavy task before them, and one that wili take them tho entire campaign to get through with, and when thoy are done, the people will speak and De* mocracy will be vanquished.

ME. SKWABD denies that he is negotiating with Sweden for the purchase of the Island of St. Bartholome w. The Secreta. ry has already done a diving business in the real estate line with foreign nations.— Considering that the United Stales is just out of a war, and our financial matters pretty close, it is now time that our Secretary should quit his purchased.

EUGENE CASBERI.Y, just elected by the Democrats to the United States Senate, from California, in place of Mr. Cooncss, Radical, is a native of New York, and was a member ul tbe Free Soil Buffalo Convention of 1848, after which he acted as a constitutional Democrat. Subsequently ho wont to San Francisco and toot up tbe practice of law, where he now re-ide?. Ho acted with the Republicans, and was beaten in the nomination for Governor by Mr^ Conn ess in 18fl.— Baffled in his aspiration?, be made a combination to secsiro the Senatorship in 1862, but was again defeated by Mr. Conner, when be immediately went over to the Democracy, with whom he has ever sinre acted.

THK New York Tribune advocates Mr. CHASE as the next.candidate on the Republican side for .the. .Presidency, but promises to support the Chicago nominee} at hazards, whoever he may be. H.G. is never very steady in hia political gait and almost always bolts at some place in a race. It is, however, a comfort to know, in advance, that tha Th'ibune will support the Chicago nomination this time. The Tribune is a newspaper of commanding influence and large circulation, and whatever may be the vagariea of the erratic gentleman who conducts it, makes its impress broadly on every Presidential cam. paign. We hope Mr. GREELEY will stand to his pledge.

AT this time the .Democracy of Indiana are assembled at Indianapolis to nominate candidates, and to lay plans for carrying election'. Wo expect the old weather-beaten Constitution wili be ex tolled, and the warmth of Democratic devotion for it, will outstrip tho manifestations of Vesuvius :"p but notwithstanding, we will not cease to remember that there was a time, not very far back, when the attachment of the Democracy for the Constitution did not equal their regard for the welfare of the Southern Confederacy, and that the Confederacy might be established the old time-honored Constitution should be no draw-back. And we remember that Democracy in tho ferovr of admiration of everything connected with the Confederacy, said ''he Constitu« tion of the Confederacy was a better Constitution than the Constitution of the Union. As tbe Confederacy failed, we xl sy expect to hear ronewed pledges of fidelity to the Constitution of our fathers, and Democracy again announced as its special guardian

THIS day, the 8th of January, is a favorite day among the Democracy for jubilees, banquets, public meetings and State Conventions. It is a day hitherto chosen in. honor of Gen. Jackson and his victory at New Orleans. When Democracy used to have "war' for a hobby, not only any war that might be on hand, but in favor of the "next war," the day seemed appropriate but the last war being such •stunner" that the Domocracy could not throw up their hats in favor of it, the 8th of January does not seem any longer ap propriate for Democratic gatherings.— And Gen. Jackson said the Union must be preserved," while Democracy when put to the teat during the last war did not cheer much for the Union, but on thooth or hand signified in unmistakable terms that their sympathies were in behalf thee who set up a Confederacy of their own, the leader of which said, "the separation is final,v from the Union that Gen. Jrcksonsaid "must bo preserved."

The Democratic assemblage now at In dianapolis, will, in all probability, be exercised about the negro, for how can such a convocation of Democrats get along without that important personage. We shall not expect much complimentary, or in favor of his welfare, and it will not be published in the resolutions that more than fifty years ago Gen. Jackson called negroes "fellow-citizens,"' and complimented them for thoir valor on the battlefield.

No •iiii'h nonsanse as this from such a Democrat a* Gen. Jackson will be tolerated, and some folks wilt wonder what affinity there is between the Democracy of the present day and Gen. Jack«on, and the inappropriateness of their celebrating any day connected with his name will ba apparent.

Terre Hante as a Mnnaritctirfag SJte Tb» impossibility of obtaining water in any large quantity at our neighboring towu, Brazil, is a serious inconvenience to all attempts at the successful smelling and manufacture of iron at that place.— The large furnace has been compelled to "blow out7" from this cause. It may be remedied hereafter, but it is bad enough now. The prairie surrounding this city is the place to work the ceal and ores of Clay county, as we have always maintained. Here tbe supply of water is inexhaustable. No engine can affect the supply of a single well. It will at least be prudent and business-like, for all who wish to use the coal of Clay county to investigate tbe position and advantages of this city as a manufacturing site before investing their money immediately over the coal formations, A. rolling-mill or blast furnace here will never lack for water, and will have for all time, many Advantages. It will be well enough for those proposing to erect iron works of any kind, to consider of these things and We" think they will do so in tho future.— We predict that before five years have passed, the prairie surrounding our city wili be dotted over with iron works, and that Terre Haute will be found to be one

reason of the bad conduct of President 10f the best points fcr the successful manaJohnson. facture of iron in the West.

IT the Democracy gains the ascendency in the Presidential campaign of the coming fall it will be tbe result of a class of ideas in sympathy with those of the south4 em rebels. Our public debt which grew out of the war is now large enongb, but suppoge the Democracy gcj into power where would it then end..? If a Democratic President should be elected in the approaching race, with the political issues as they are now forming who is so ignorant as not to know that the payment of the rebel war debt, the pensioning of the rebel wounded, the payment for the slaves of rebels freed by the war will not be insisted upon as part of the results of that victory?

Reconstruction.

But for. the bad cohffubt Of President JOHNSON, bis Democratic ftiends of the North, and his Rebel allies of the Sonth the whole' matter of Reconstruction Would have been worked out in a satisfactory way months ago. It is amusing to hear Democrats and Rebels prating in the same language about the inadijquacy of the present laws of Congress to reconstruct the nine Rebel States. Nojblame is to be laid to any partips for their -not. having reconstructed .themselves long since, except to the Deihocrrfts fthd John sonites of the North and the Rebels of the Ssuth, who escaped slaughter in the war.

National Taxes,

The Rebels of the South and thfe disloyal portion of the Democracy of the North forced the war of the Rebellion on the country. We have now & large national debt to pay as the result of that War. The war which resulted In severely thrasbifig the Rebels and putting down their rebel lion, has entailed heavy liabilities on the nation. The South ought to be "reconstructed'' at once in some shape, and be made to pay its share of what is required to liquidate the debt. As things now stand the North is paying all the taxes required to carry the war debt, while the miserable devils who got up. the rebellion and really created the debt are doing nothing towards defraying it. Congress ought, speedily, to do something towards taxing the South to tbe full extent of its share of the public burdep3, whether it "reconstructs" or not, and that tax ought to be collected.

Tbe Public Debt,

Mr. MCCTTLLOCH, Secretary of the Trea« sury, seems to be possessed 'of an insane idea that the public bonded debt must be paid off at once and thst too in gold. There is no sense in uch an attempt, but en the contrary it s? ooth disastrous and ruinous. There is no need of any special haste in paying'off our war debt. It should be funded at a fair, economical and uniform rate of interest payable in legal tender, whatever that may be, and its ul--timate payment deferred until the next generation and until, the Rebels, who got up the war, can get into condition to pay their part of it. The rebellion oost the. North a hq.lt million of lives to squelch it and they were of countless more value thar. the millions of moiiey which were also required. The United States need not b« many epeoial hurry to pay off the war debt. Iet it be popsolidafed and put upon a uniform ba9is at ft fy'\r rate of interest and then let it run aldng. We protest against the efforts of-Mr* JOHNSON and his chief clerk of tba Treasury Department, in trying to bankrupt the country by the immediate payment of the War d-?b{ in specie fhnds.

Disfranchisement-

A good deal is said these days by tho. Democracy and the rebels about the terrible laws of Congress which disfranchised so many of £he fjyeet-scented rebels that got through the war with "yyhole hide." All this talk however ,i» rjdicujqiis— Under the present laws not more than fifty thousand persona are probably disfranchised. The leaders of the rebellion, in the South, and the chief officers of its ar mies, and all that perjured set of scoun. drels who often swore allegiance to the United States government only to betray it, with "the chief civil functionaries of the rebel States are the present exceptions. The under officers of the rebel government and all the ordinary rank and file of it& «.ra»lea are nol disfranchised. Every fellow who. shoul«J.e.rejl Ijis piusket and shot Union soldiers ought, if b® l}*d hj deserts, to be hang instend of being per-j mitte to go about to-day, but our Gov* ornment in its lenienoy does not even propose to prevent Jiearh

Of

onJBAf&B JHiit on fNintl" straet, Washington, was crowded last Monday evening with an audience attracted to listen to the speech of Senator Mortou, of Indiana,, on the political issues of the Presidential campaign in 4868, delivered at tho request cf the Soldiers' and Sailor?' IJiuod. A ofjiadiga were present, £i|d dMupie^frtofit sojite. §£he usuai.'buslhets bitheMSofeifitiTO ^assaspende^and' at 7J o'clock Mr. Morton entered the oacorted Lo the platfotm by Major Morse, President of the association, who introduced him to the audience.

Mr. Morton spoke as follows GENTLEMEN OF THE UNION AND FBL-l»w-ciTizkNs—In accepting the invitation to address you this evoning on the great political issues involved in the Presidential campaign the coming year, 1 had intended to carefully prepare my address, hut ill health and the pressure of official

professing to emanate from a "conferee efeuties have preventod my dcing so, and I shall be obliged to deliver my views in an off-hand manner, and the remarks will be confined as to what I regard the issues to be decided by the American people at the next Presidential election.

As I consider the subject, tbero are two great ideas uppermost in lh« minds of tho American people at the present time, both struggling for supremacy. Tho iirst is the justice and right on the part of the Government and people in putting down the lale rebellion by force ofarmsjthe second is the justice and right of tho rebellion and the cause for Which the rebels fOught. All the questions with which wo will have to deal in the contest will be but emanations from these two loading ideas. In other words, the struggle iu 1868 will be on the question of the right of the rebellion, and the right of tho United States in putting it down, 'us in 1964.

The man, therefore, who-votes for the candidates of the Conservative or the Democratic party, as it may be called, whatever may be his intention to the contrary, will certainly record his vote in lavor of the right of the rebellion and the man who sustains tho,candidate, of the Republican party will unmistakably record his vote on the side of the Government, and its right in crumbing out, by TorCe of arms, armed rebellion.

:y-

I may here refer to tho present cowii4.ion of the country, and to causes which have operated increase financial embarrassment, and distract the commercial prosperity of the nation—a condition of affairs to be attributed solely to the fact that the question of reconstruction is not yet settled.- And first I would say, it is the persistent effort on the part ot tho South and their Democratic ullies in the North, that keeps up these distractions

It may sound very well to the ears of foreign governments to hear that wo have been able to raise so large an amount by taxation but while they may admire our ambition to discharge the liabilities of the nation, they may reasonably despise our seeming sagacity. And I take occasion her® to say, as I have frequently declared my views on this subject, that we would be far more prosperous and happy if we had simply paid the interest on Uml debt. Why should wo be in a hurry to pny tho enormous amount which burden's tho people with such heavy taxation Have we not already given half a million of lives in putting 4°wu the rebellion, in restoring peace to tho nation liavo we not a large amount of Slate, county, ci'.y, and town debts to pay, growing out of that war? Have we not already done enough in our day and generation without being crushed down by the weight of rpecial taxation?

Tho policy which has been commenccd of endeavoring to pay off tha national debt rapidly, in tho present condition of affairs, I can not but consider as most ruinous and disastrous in its consequences.

Thoti, again, we hnvo added to our troubles the policy inaugurated !y the Secretary of tho Treasury in trie oontrnction of the oiir'cne.y, which has served to restrain, commercial enterprise, undermine the trade of tho people, and keep ilie money market iu an unsettled condition and confidence will never ba restored until the bill which is now before Congress, fntended to prohibit the Lecrotsry exercising thjs.power, ii passed.

It is true we wanl retrenchment—reform but we want real and substantial retrenchment, lor the '.•xpenses of the Government are indeed enormous. YV" do not want that kind of retrenchment that gives to clerks only starving salnrie.?, r.or that other kind which would prevent a Senator from getting paper enough on which to write his letters but wo do wanl retrenchment in the larger itsms of our public expenses and the lime has c-wrie when that kind of retrenchment can he commenced without injury the affairs of the Goyernment.

W'e bftve now an army of fiity thousand meu and we have a na?y that is much larger than is necessary for the country at the present time and I think the t"mie is at hand when both may be diminished, and thereby lessen our eXT penses millions of uollar®. Yerv many oi jour larger vessels now ia commission can be recalled, and laid up at the navy yards, «nd I trust that before long tho army can be reduced to at least one-half its present

The purchase of Alaska from tho Riw jsian Government can be justified on con aiderations of high political importance, |un4 oo considerations of great commerjcial importance for tho future. It is lecessary that we should have such a portion for the benefit of tho commerce of ,he weBtern portion of the nation but-1 japnot ee the necessity of spending ^even tnd one-half millions of tipll^rs in 'gold 'Or the purchase of tho Island of »St. Thomas, which may lie truly sanl to be *he very birthplace of yellow fever, an4 a Jocalil^' so often made desolate by hurri. canes and earthquake?.

It is important that vo should fund our national debt, and to put tbe bonds into mch ash ape, if possible, that they may pay lower rate of interest. I do not know that -this can be done at present, bat at-the B»m« time no one can doubt or tn^ffiDQt that such a, policy i» de» tirabta. The, question has been agitated alresidy in aflumber of States to have the rlght^of taxing the bonds, and whether cit taui be lone or not, it is not right that the Government should directly enforce a system

of taxation which doprivea tho people of tho several States of money that would be far better aPpropriated in paying tbe debts of thoee t.Hates|

The Democratic parly—and in speaking of it 1 inay as we'l state what institutes tbe strength of this' party, for ft is composed of tho Democratic party of the North, the rebels of tho South, and a few converts from tho Republican party since the close of the war-—has its financial scheme to relieve the country of the debt which is, in fact, the result of the party .Action which brought on tho war and ouufo tht debt and, though it professes to have the great remedy for our national lir.ancial troubles, 1 cannot myself think so, unless tho remedy is based upon the hypothesis that the ."hair of tho dog is good for the bite." But we think that

Congress will settle upon some policy that will be satisfactory to the whole nation and so far as any attempt on the part of the Democratic party to benefit the financial condition of the country is concerned, they may just as well make up their minds that tho whole matter will be adjusted without their assistance.

I said in the commencement of my remarks that thero aro tv/o ideas uppermost in the minds of the people.

The first of these will, as I havo already said, enter into the issues of tho coining campaign. If tbe idea prevails that tho Government was right in putting down the rebellion if it was right in putting forlb every energy that cou',i ^e suggested for the accomplishment of this 'purpose, then you soldiers and sailors, who bore a part in the struggle for the preservation of our national existence will certainly feel that you have not only acted wisely, but that you have borne an factorable part in the services rendered yov country in the hour of Its peril.

But, on the other hand, should the Democratic party succeed, and I trust to God that it may not—that the people of this great nation will avert such a calam ity by their votes in that campaign--then will it be, to you, a disgrace and a hishonor to have been a member of the Union army, and the places of trust will revert to rebels, and their names -occupy the position of honor in the pages *of historv.

One question we havo yet to meot in this campaign is, the manner in which the Southern States shall be fully restored, with" all of their political rig'nt3 and privileges as States, and the manner in tfhich these blessings may be fully enjoyed by all.

Ttie question is not whether that power shall be divided between loyal and disloyal men—whether it shall be conferred upon blacks or whites, or upon whites alone, fourteen-flfteenths of whom are rebels and bore a prominent part in the war against tho Union but we insist that the power, when it is conferred, shall

And hinders the Government from estab* *bo so delivered that its preponderance shall not be on the side of di8lo\Tal men. Nor do we ask all we should, oven in granting tni?, for it does not exclude thoso who have borne arms in the lata war against the country but we do demand that the power shall be conferred in such a manner that blacks and whites may have a voice in tho State government and on tho question of reconstruction.

lishirtg internal peace. Whoever is desirous Of peace and prosperity should be in favor of speedy reconstruction while, on the other hand, the efforts of the opponents of the proposed plan are directly operating to keep uine States in their unfortunate condition, -anil are so many labors to perpetuate these deplorable ditliculties.

Another source of_ trouble is apparent in the fact that since the Qr.~t of August, 18G5, the Government has paid $4C5,000r 000 of the national debt. It true you .see, in referring to the report of the Secretary of the Treasury in relation to this matter, the statement that, only $206,000,000 is the amount of the reduction of the public debt but it has transpired that over $200,000,000 of our portion of the unliquidated debt proper has been paid and though this amount is no.t so reported, il should nevertheless be considered as a part of the public debt, for it has been t-x-torted from the people and, I may say, wasted in paying expenses that ought not to have been incurred. .Need wo wondor that our -people aro restless under such an administration of affairs, when such an amount of nioftvy has been directly taken from tho North to pay a debt Vhich the South should have long since been in position to be made to pay a part of a debt which they forced upon llie country by rebellious acts, and which they should ba compelled to help liquidate as an evidence of theif loyalty II W.

It is true, the present laws of Congress disfranchise only a small number of those who engaged in the rebellion. It does not disfranchise the petty officers or soldiers, but that class of men who had once sworn allegiance to the Constitution in offices of trust, and this class cannot ex. coed 45,000 persons. When President Johnson issued his proclamation disfranchising those who had participated in the rebellion, it included not less than fourteen classes, numbering between ^250,000 and 280,000 men but the Congressional systcwi of disfranchisement will apply to only 45,000, and not to exceed 50.000 men.

Wo have heard, of late, much about an oppressed people. We are told -by the Democratic orators and by the newspapers of the Democratic party in all parts of the country, that the people of the South aro down-trodden and oppressed. Do they who prate about oppression boar in mind that tUese are tho very pooplo who, but a.few years since, arrayed themselves in arms against the nation—whoso actions have cost us over half a million of lives, the very people who developed the war that has'left us as a legacy a debt of thousands of millions of dollars, with an almost incalculable amount to liquidate, not to speak of the untold suffering and sorrow that has been thrust upon the people of the North And now we arecharg« cd with being oppressors and tyrants, because they have not bcon admitted to full political rights. And do you call this oppression Can you ignore the fact that they were the projectors of a rebellion, guilty of treason, and plotters against the life of the nation And are these the men who are to be welcomed hack as citizens oi the United States? Did they have tho right to run from tho battlefield to^tlie ballot-box, and declare who shall be their representatives in Congress—to abandon their arms, and resume the rights of loyal citizens—to wield again tho control of our National Government?

Yet lv.eso are the people whose agony is in the throats of tho Democratic party, and I tako it npon myself to say there is neither senso nor justice in it. When thoy talk aoout oppression thoy forget tho3T are favoring those who brought on tjio trouble and bathed the land in blood.

liiny have novcr been submitted for ratiflcation to the peoplo. Nor have thoy half tho mora} right that t|je constitutions hWG which have hf"*n inory recently formed. Those formed in 1865 con* tained certain conditions, such as prohihitinp slavery, prohibiting tho payment of tho debt contracted during the iato war provisions that were, required by the pro» (jlamation of President .Tohnson. i3ut yet they haye never been ratiiied, and were the Senators and Jtepresentative? of these State? admitted into our Congressional balls, they wou'd becastuside and ^norcd, aa they had never been ratified— and that I know would be tbe course pursued.

The struggle, therefore, on the part the Dpmocr^tic party, Jiorth and South, as.-I have spoken, w:ll bo in i8t3, for tho regtoratio.^ of these States into robol Viands, and the a-lminhtratlon of the af» fairs of these States on that basis.

If you are preparerf to say their hlackft ind loyj?! white men are to be turned fcrer to the tender mercies of rebel?, then i-fte tho Democratic ticket. But if yon ire in favor of impartial suffrage, And giving rights to black and white, then vote the Republican ticket.

41

There aro numerous olher questions ^rrapt op in these leading idea* I have Announced. The first one I shall men* tion is the payment for slaves emancipated during the war. And though this has hot been declared as yet to be a question Of the issue, I am as firmly convinced that it is to bo as though I read it in tha written platform ot the Democratic party.

The States of Maryland and Kentucky lave already provided for this anticipation of the su**"988 of the Democratic party at the next fc'ection. [Here Mr. Morton read from tbe constitution of the State Of Maryland, and from a report of the pipceedings of tho Kentucky

State Legis­

lature, to substantiate the statement made.] Georgia has also provided for tbis, and

oltbough other Southern States \uay be silent on this subject, they will bo ready to meet tho question when it time*

The Democratic party of the South will a a a me show that tho Democratic party -©if the North are ready to meet them. "I: basii my assertion on the fact that the members of this party yoted, without a single exception, against tho amendments when they were before Congress, and Democratic newspapers have denounced these amendments with ono voice so it safe to say that in the issues theN ortherh wing will concede to the South every- thing claimed by them and if they "do not, their action will bo very different from what it has been in years past for I never knew of a demand made by tho Sooth that was not readily conceded by the Northern portion of that party. Should the Democratic party como into power, the payment for the elavea emancipated may be considered a settled fact.

You remember when the question was up in Congress to abolish slavery in 18G2, and again in 1864 tbe Democratic members in both Houses were then united in favor of paying lor every slave emancipated, and it was denounced as morally wrong to take a slave oven from a rebel and not fairly compensate tho owner for tho loss and I say again, this question is inevitably involved in the gonoral issues of 18G8.

Another question is involved, that will follow ju|t as certain, and that is the assumption and payment of"the robe1 War debt. I ask you as reasoning and '.Sinking men, when the representatives of the Sonth are admitted to Congress, and aro called upon to vote upon appropriation bills, do you think thuy wuuld vote to tax themselves for our debt and not prov ido for their own

Tho Northorn States staked their financial power in the Governi cent bonds, and the South risked all sho had in tho prosecution of the. war, and lost all and you may expect on the advent of the Democratic party into power, that provision will be made for the payment of that dobt but I am glad to say that not umil then will it be thought of.

The Democratic parly were opposed to our debt being contracted in its incipiency, and you may remember that a prominent member of that party warned the people not to buy the bonds, as they would prove worthless on their imnds.— They wero hostile then to the debt, as the Southern wing of the Democratic parly ar3 now to being compelle I to help pay it. So that the demand on their part to tax tho people for the payment of tho debt of the South will be as surely conceded 03 tho demand is made.

I como to another issue that, i- also in' volved in tho contest—tho pensioning oi rebel eoldiers, and the widows a*«id orphans of tho-o who felt fighting for the rebellion. Does not tho present state of affairs in Maryland indicate tho feeling which prevails against tho soldiers who were members of regiments in the Union army Can a Union soldier bo elected to any office? Is he not proscribed in business and in society I ask if Union men, who are lawyers or physicmns, find any success in the practice of thoir profession? Aro they not proscribed on account of their sentiments Docs not the samo condition of affairs exist in Kentucky? I see horo to-night a gentleman who can t-11 you about that much better than I—who knows from experience and observation what tho feeling fsfthcre.— Rebels, and only rebels, aro clected to office. The presence of Union men is nowhere tolerated, and their position is made uncomfortable, so as, if possible, to rid tho State of their prosenco.

So, if you give the power of reconstruction into the hands of rebels, you may expect the same condition of affaire in all tho Southern States. And you may ask, what do I arguo from all this I will tell you. Wrhon tho Democratic party again gets into powor, do you suppose the representatives from tho South will vole for pensioning the soldiers and widows of tho North, and not provide for their own in tho South Lit human nature, I ask, for men to do such things? And, when you bring them into power, their rebol soldiers will as surely be placed on tho. same footing with tho Union soldiers of the North. This question then, I say, is involved in the issues of the coming campaign.

The point I mako here to-night is the inevitable consequences of tho Democratic party coming into power. Sopio men may liko the financial policy of tho party, and vote for it solely on that account but let him remember that he is voting to elevate the rebel soldier lo tho samo position as those who fought to preserve the Union.

Tho military policy of the party is foreshadowed in tho order promulgated by General Hancock, on assuming command of the Fifth Military District and, a8 it has been presented to Congress by the President for its admiration, I think tjiat criticism upon ft is perfectly fair. I will read tho order. [The order was read, as has been published.] Tho idea is, like the apples of tho Dead Soa, fair to Iho oye, but crumbles to powder if but touched to the lip.

Tho noticeable f«saturo of this order ii that it does not mention tho subject of re construction, for which, by authority cf Congress, ho is sent there and empowered to carry out. Ho goes on to say that tho civil rights of tho people must not'bo interfered with by military rule, and openly th:« order, thtiibtho very pur-

The law prevails in all well regulated communities that crime shall be punish dcclarrs, bv tn:« orue ed, and a sense of justice demands tnal! pojso for which ho wr outrages upon the laws and tho rights of! superseded and ignored. t|ie people shall be severely punished.— [Mr. Morton then reed from acts of We talk about the present StHte govern-1 Co'ngr« s= delining the authority and du mcnte that have been ignored in Congres-j Has of commanders yf tho military dissional acls. Can you tell mo by whom tricts.] By these I show that this order they were formed, if not by tho procla- is in contradiction and deliaucu of the mation cf the President ot the United [laws onacted by Congress. The very Slates? And if you will recur to the'Stuto governments which by these acts electior.3 in yirginia, North and South are abrogated aud declared illegal are the Carolina, you wiil find that less than ono- ones which General Hancock, by his adthird of th" white voters took part in vent, has regarded in general order.— forming tho constitutions of tho present Congress, to becxpicit, has, at a later day, S:fltos. The delegates formed them, and defined itself on this subject, and declared,

Xi sent thoro i. to be

iflhe«o Stato governments wero allowed to exist, illegal ancl unauthorised as they are, }t would only ba through the sutferance of the millitary commanders.

But General Hancock expresses open contempt for Congressional authority, and bows allegiance tothecivil authority of the State of Louisiana, and implies there by tho recognition of a State government that has been declare^ illegal and unauthorize4 expressly by Congress. What does he mean when ha esp'iot»sea himself about civil liberty? It looks very well, but what does it mean in this connection It means ttiat loyal men shall be triedand condemned by rebol juries. But it 13 said they will have justice done them.— Who has ever heard of the murder uf a singe TTnion man in the feJouth having beer, ferreted out, or tLe guilty one puni'shed

I admit the habeas ecrjius is aright dear to the people of tho country, and should npt be interfered with except in time of war, when its force would be antagonfstid to the interests of the Government. But ^hat doc-* the writ oi habeas corpus mean as seen iu the eyes of General Hancock and expressed in this order? Wliat does it mean, if it does not say to the rebel judge, you areciothcd with full.powor to demand the releasoof every man arrested by military authority,- applied, of eourse, to the oppression of loynl men of that State. And nil this in tho name of law and justice and right. Do you believe that it ia meted out to them Lot the-mss?** ere at Memphis an l^ffffifcrrible tra®J(W at New Orleans an«l^r«*t and t^jrpi of it, that order was wnWTn on the very spot where that bloody tragedy was enacted, an account of .which sent a thrill of horror into the heart of every being in Christendom—th^t order which declares that this power shall bo directod only to sustain tbeir laws and government. I read that order with mingled sorrow and contempt. General Hancock was & noble member of the Union army, and his rec-

ord one that any man might well bo proud of. He was wounded in the service of hfe caerilryj nn^ ji^Wy darned tho !turelf^ornei him I'IOTI fnany a battle* l'ut 8*w that'when be lent hll po|prA %'th§iiuiM |f|bo enemies otitis country, and" to thoso' who ought still to be his enemies, that his laurels would wither and his name gy down amid the condemnations of people whose honor he has insaltcd \r IT„

The great questions of tho campaign of 1868 aro, then, 1 repeat, the maintenance of tbia Government, the justice of the war, or the right of Iho rebellion. And these are the questions which aro to bo decided 1 j*.Uate^iji^.w^eU^this mentis lo remain in tho bands of Union riion, oj" to allowed to pass intu lhe hands Of Sotitherh men.'

My voice is growing weak, and my strength failing me, so that I shall have to close ray rrinmrkij, thanking yoo, ladies and gentlemen, for tire attention you have given me.

At the conclusion of the speech a vote Of thanks was tendered to Mr. Morton, after which the meeting adjounu'-d.
