COLFAX AT PITTSBURG His Reception and Speech. Mr. Colfax visited Pitisbarg on Thursday, and during the evening made two brief speeches. He said there was a trinity of principles im the victory of Tuesday: Liberty sor all—justice tor all—protecuiou for ali—aud “by (hat sign we conquered.” There was ancther reasoa why this young and patriotic party succeeded. 1: decinred (hat we ought to enfranchiee rather than enchain—elevate rather than crusa—batld | Up rather than trample down, and because we Dore our cause down to the hambie aud belp- less. Though denounced by all the enemies of the right in this broad Inad, we weat forward to conquer Amd win salvation for the Union as we gave emancipation to the slave. [Ap- aus Pithere are two sharply defined questions which have been settled by the voice of the people. The Democratic platform declared, in ‘hat portion of it written by Wade Hampton, tat the reconstruction measores of Couzress Were unconsiiit!donal, revolatiouary, aud void and the American people trample late form under their feet as they bad trampled tus platform which tour yetrs before deciared the War a failare and demauded a cessation of hos- tilities. The voice of the people, from whos Gecision there is no appeal, bas declared tha the recousiruction measures of Congress ute ot unconstitutional, revolutionary, or void ve have declared the vu.ce of the people is to be obeyed, and the laws are to be enforced, whetber rebels like them or dislike them Cheers. (Cine selond principle ~vhich has been settled by *he popular vove is that every man bas the Tight to go South or North, as be is devoled to the principles of our Maz, and be protected by it against outrage and wrong. (Cheers.) To-day the only piace m this broad land where the people are prevenied from singing tie battle-songs of the war, such as “Dowa with the Traitors aud up with the Stars," is om the blood-stained fields of the South, where your soldiers fell. You could sing those songs among the banditts of the Alp= or among the thags of India. The only place where you could nut sing ¢hem is over the graves of our dend soldiers. But we are going | to have a land so tree and 0 loyally presided over by a man so tree to bis country that you may sing these songs anywhere. [Appiadse.) I speak of President Grant. From his own utterances you will find—before he wrote those magnetic words, “Let us have peac="—it you look back to bis accepiance speech. when th commiltes waited upon bim, and remember Dearing the words 2s I afterwards Tead them— that he snid he was for “peace aud qaiet and otection everywhere.” What be says he Konerally means. (Cheers ] He will bring to the qutices devolving upon bim as President the same enerzy, the same ability aud the same ‘Will that bas heretofore characterized him, and when he says there sbail be peace nad quiet and protection everywhere, jet traitors be- Ware, for be means what be says, aud he will cerry it out.
