There is no way to deal with such jeople. It jn idle to diacusa this question with men constituted as thene men are. Why, it was related to me by gentleman whom 1 know as thoroughly re-: liable, that ha held a con vernation the other day with a man who lIonj:s now to thisJnn--bin (action, that I once knew to le one oft he niot temperate, wise and shrHous men in thii State, but this man had t-ecome po imlnied with this spirit this Jarohiiiieal anil revolutionary spirit-that be declared to this getle-v man that the oppocers of radicals in thia State must go out ofthe State that they could not live in the State together." He said, also, ' that M be dhl not care so much about the negro;" the fact la, he wanted to get rid of the negro and the negro question ;' but the oppo-evra of the radical . party, their opponents their enemies aa he described them muat go oot of tLe State. . .. . Now. my triends, it is about time to see how they will go out of this State.Applause.--For my part, wen they com meuce that overt act of expelling :hoe men who are ' opposed to their fanatical and revolutionary doctrines I , shall feel inclined, wherever I niay be upon the face of thl eathi.' f hall fiel iocline.1 to " come back to this State and try the issue with them.

It is well known that since the 4th dav of Julv, or,. rather, since the -th day of Jnlv, no enemies of the Government in anv orgaizetibrce have been npon the Mississippi river within one hnndred miles of either oi'it? banks: that the commerce, tht prolucta ofthe Northwest have leen tiel up here in onr midst without a niarket, except oer the costly railroad befveen us and the E;ist, have ben so taxed and -burdened that it is scarcelr novel to us that the profits made hy the railroads eat np theprofits that should have been made by "the producer in the Northwest; and absolutely, my friends, to show how this thing has operated. I wiil state, to you that when Banks made his proclamation; declaring that the direct' commerce between New. Orleans and ports above should be freev unrestricted, and Untaxed, the stock in the Erie railroad, running from Dunkirk, on Lake Erie, ' to the city of New York, fell froni 106 to 1QI, and it was not nofed. The Opening of the "Missis sinni river 'ha! thisi effect upon thtsvrsmote railroad, which had enriched itself r r llie-cat ting off from ns ofthe free navigation of this river. As soon aa Uen. Banks declared the commerce free from New Orleans to ports above for he had tio power to make it free elsewhere aa soon aa he mafe this proclamation," we see the resalt. Now, I pat it to this community I pat If to any dispassionate. ! to any disinterested man, whether the Northwest has "not "done "her ti"I"fchare In euppreealie this rebellion:' ILoud cheers, and cries,' "Slie, has."!
