T tell you, gentiemen, this banishment of Mr. Vailandigham to the South is an ‘mault to every civMian of the North (‘That’s go,” and cheers.) It was intended to be, yey the grosgest possible in- sult to him, and I rejoice that be bore with fortitude this outrage. Pardon me for a moment, while I read yeu what be said from his prison to the people of Obio before . ho was sent South. (The speaker read Mr. Vallandig- Bam's letter, which has appeared beretofore in the Hgnap.) Hegent South, said the speaker, in the hands of bie captors a prisoner, and was delivered over to the rebel officers, and with true dignity, with @ true appre- ciation of his position, he said, “I am a. citizen of the State of Ohio and of the United States; I am not @ friend of the Confederate States or their cause. but its enemy. I surrender myself a prisoner of war} and there he remains still under thie decree of the Presi. dent, made, as i have said, in violation of the spirit and letter of the constitution, Now, fellow citizens, I have not come here to discuss whether Mr. Vallandighim's views wore right or wrong. Peoplo may well differ upon’ snbdjects of that kind; democrats may well differ among themselves; it is not the question involved here, The question wn it not an outrage that the people will nevor permit, shall they bot riso in their majesty to declare Against sucl an outrogo? @Cuers.) Tsay it is, no mat. ter whether he was Fight or wrong in his peculiar views. He was a iriend of the Union; he had his own mode, ax ne supposed, of getting out of the difficuity, and no one doubted his patriotism. I do not believe—indeed, J am, snre—he never had for one moment a particle of sympathy witb the Southern rebolliom. He desired to bring it end, and posed peaceable means do it and preserve the Union. (Applause.) persons may differgas to this mode of effecting it, but all agree the l’nion must be preserved. Wo agree on Tesisting the acts of the government, not by force, but by openly discuesing these questions. Vallandigham did no more than we ers doing now—discussing tho acts of the istration, Men were sent there to report his say- ast agree there was nothing wrong in what ne. We must not forget that the prople are tho goverung power, The administration aro the ser- vants of the people. The pe ple are their masters, aud you hive a right to cail them to account, and at tb» bal- jot box to turn them out. This is the policy and theory of our government. The constituiion says Congress shall not bave power to abridge tho freedom or of the press. Therefore it i# tha! the right people to discuss the acts of the administration is autecd 10 them. It is forgotten by the administra- that they only hold power temporarily. and that you can turn them out.

Several thous sand armed refugees from the conscription have been for weeks intrenched in the mountains with artillery, suc- cessfully defying the rebePhutuority. ‘The Raleigh Standard bitterly complain that while the rebel conscription act has not been enforced in Georgia and Mississinp!, North Carolina “has been raked as with a fine tooth comb.’” It appears that in the battle of Chancellorsville twenty- nine No th Carolina regiments were placed in the frout to resist Hooker’s advance, sus: aining an immense slaughter, while the South Carolina and Virginia troops were held in reserve. This massacre of North Carolinians is boldly and freely denounced, and the confederacy is charged with gross injnstice and bad faith, The numevous and siudied indignities put upon this State and her pooplo are keeniy resented.
