Vutn speech.
Ou Thursday evening of this week Rev
II. K. J lines delivered an address in tho
Court-Uooui in this place, to a large and
attentive audience, on tho Union. Uiiclly
sketching tho position of parties in tho lust
Presidential contest, bo eliminated the sim
ple proposition that those who entered the
nrena to competo for a nation'1 favor who
sought to gain control over tho administra
tion of a nation's a Hairs tacitly and by
implication agreed to nbido a nation's
choice. This obligation a portion of tho
people havo ignored and refused to fulfill.
Proceeding, ho drew a graphic picture of
the advautages, of tho glorious prosperity
which had resulted from our Union, and liy
a few vigorous touches portrayed the mis
erable condition to which we would be re
duced if secessionism wero permitted to
destroy tho Constitution, tho fabric of civil
government which our fathers wero at so
much expense of blood and treasure in
rearing. IM in catmg strife ond bloodshed,
ho declared himself unequivocally in favor
of maintaining the honor of tho national

children as wo received from our fathers,

which no single star is blotted out. Alto

crowded house testified their approbation

Wo were particularly pleased at tho mani

decorum exhibited generally during the

ing tho meeting to the support of the Gen
crul Government to put down rebellion, to
the extent of their means and ability. Af
ter the adoption of tho resolution, speech'
cs wero inado by moro than a do.cn imli
vidua!, all of whom pledged their lives
and their all to tho maintenance of the
Union. Thcro was not a disuuiouist pres
ent, or ono thut dared ocknowledgo it.
Tboso who had becu regarded a " tender-
footed," as tho flag went np, joined in tho
general shout, and took an active part In
the after proceedings. They could not
(and who can?) see the American flag and
not feel as though they could dio for its
preservation. Xo parly spirit was man!
festid by any ono. Old men who had been
bitter political opponent from boyhood,
stood around and grasped each other's
hands beneath tho common flag. Tho past
was forgotten, aud they pledged themselves
each to the other, and all to their country.
Tho exercises of tho day wero closed amid
cheers for the Union, music from tho bund,
ana salutes trom mo cannon.

I'd. Amirs: Tho people of tho Waldo
Hill nro nearly all for tho Union. On
May 2rt, a largo crowd assembled nt Silver
ton, to raise a po!u and hoist tho glorious
old Star-Spr.ugled lJuiincr, but owing to
some mishap in raising the pole (which was
over 100 feet long), it fell and broke in
pieces, much to tho delight of two or three
"sympathisers" present. Tho Union men
then culled a meeting, chose Samuel Allen

tion, Dr. Hutton, Paul Crundall, Ai Coo

wero then culled upon nud addressed the
meeting: Dr. Hutton, J. II. Stephens, K.
K. Colby (not very sound on tho Union),
W. It. Dunbar, nud Sam'l Allen. Tho
meeting adjourned with loud cheering for
the Union and tho Constitution ns our
fathers gave it. There are only about
four secessionists In this section. All the
young boys in this vicinity ( aldo Hills)
urc partial to tho Stars and Stripes, each
ono carrying tho American Hag with him
wherever ho goes. The older boys nttend
ing the school of W. 11. Dunbar have hoist
ed tho Stars and Stripes. Tho scholars
of J. L. Cleary's schcol aro also making
preparations for a (lug-raising. God bless

6T Senator Douglas, in a late speech
iu the Senate, snid:
" Tho word government means coercion.
There can be no government without coer
cion. Coercion is the vital principle upon
which the government rests. Without
the right of coercion, and you dissolve
your government. If every mnn would
perform his duty nnd respect the right of
his neighbor voluntarily, there would be
no necessity for nny government noon earth.
The necessity of government is found to
consist in the fact that some men will not
do right unless coerced to do so. The ob
ject of all government Is to coerce and to
compel every man to do his duty, who
would not otherwise perform it. I do not
sulscrile to this doctrine that coercion is
not to bo used in a free government. It
must be used in all free governments, no
matter what their form or what their prin
ciple. But coercion mut always be used
in the mode prescribed in the Cwstitutiou
aud laws."
