Can u< had y thp bOOfr StOfC*. . c!**!! Atlanta Street R. R. On account of tin* great length of Mr. Hill’s speech, we have chosen to omit souie parts and conduuso some others. In doing this, we have taken pains not to do any injustice to his positiou or views. He commenced by deprecating passion and diminution as the greatest foo of good sense, and stating that there nro wise men who believe that the original theory of American Government do- 1 iciuls upon the results of the coming canvass—especially the material, moral and political destinies of the South; that whether the South shall continue to be oppressed and insulted—mere vassals of the Federal Government, or be restored to prosperity iu their own way, are ques tions many believe to depend ou this canvass. He, therefore, invited cool ness, culmuess and dispassionate reason in the investigation of the questions in volved; that ho was not there to address imics but friends; but should not em ploy language they had justly provoked, nor indict the punishment thus justly deserved. [Applause. J That his hearers might clearly under stand the political situation,ho reviewed a few late events which he said had brought it about. The war left both sections largely under the domination of passion. That war itself had been preceded by a long, heated sectional controversy, neces sarily engerdering passions of uuusual heat and animosity. Tho government was taken possession of by 1 he passions of the hour and statesmanship seemed to be the child and creaturo of passions. The South came out of the war prostrate and paralysed, the victims of passions aud prejudices; and it would not be extrava gant to say they suffered during the four years succeeding the war, wrongs and in sults exceeding in infamy if not equalling in losses, all the calamities of the war I itself. Two years ago, wise mtn, getting rid of passion, began to reflect. The party in power seemed to liud an end of what might be justly termed war meas ures, especially as applicable to the “Rebel States.” They passed the reconstruction acts, by which the govern ments of ten of the States were abso lutely subverted, and other governments treated by Cougress set up in their stead. They only passed amendments to the Constitution to preserve tho fruits of tho war, as they said, and continued to exerciso congressional powers unknown Ito the Constitution, absolutely start ling in their character, and exclusively of Jon#'wSf&io j»ower employed largely to govern this country, and the dominant party put a coustrucii.n upon them which gave absolute power, c ntralizing the General Government to the exteut of obliterating State Constitutions — Where the end was, no man could tell. This state of things justly alarmed many of tho best and wisest nu n of the Repub lican party. They saw that measures which they bad adopted iu a moment of passion, aud which tl ey ihowjht were necessary, wero to bo repeated aud re peated, until it seemed the party abso lutely intended to subvert Republican government, nml institute Centralism, and despotism in its stead. It was be lieved that there was a sufficient number of patriotic men in tho United States to correct this evil, if l»y any means they could combine together. Here, thin, was the situation. Hero was the Democratic party a unit against all these measures, and a large portion of the Republican party, daily increasing, that condemned these continued encroachments upon the Constitution and the rights of the States; and these added together, it was believed, would be sufficient to cor rect this rvil and turn out of power the party disposed to ooutinue encroach ment*. . .. , , Rut how could this combiunt ion be el fectedV Could any purpose have been higher or nobler, or more patriotic VI How could these different elements, agreeing in purpose, in principle, equal ly alarmed, aml equally patriotic, be com bined into one solid compactorgauization? The Democratic party had said in 1808 that all the Reconstruction policy was revolutionary, unconstitutional and void, and had proclaimed their purpose, if they acquired power, to declare it a nul lity. On that position it, was utterly im possible to got the dissatisfied Republi cans,the liberal—what I call the patriotic —Republicans,to unite with thoDemocra- ev. And why? Because upon that theory they would be required to put a party in power who proclaimed beforehand, that it was their purpose to uudo everything that bad been done; aud though they might deprecate much that had been done, that they had done themselves,yet the process of undoing, they feared, might work another revolution, and where would this process ond? It was impossible, therefore, for the Republi cans to unite with the Democrats ou this I oint. To ask this, was to nsk them to stultify themselves? On the other hand, it was impossible for the Democratic party ever to say that these amendments and reconstruction acts were wise, just, or right, because they were not. The D« luocratic party lin the South would have dishonored themselves by such a couceissou. [Ap ^ How) now, was it possible to bring these elements for a common purpose lofftbf f ,, ... When men really wish to accomplish a good common purpose, there is a wayl to do so. Here wus the solutionf The Democratic party] A H X Adjourned meeting of the A Hants Hired Rail road Company will b# held ou Haturdav, th* — ——■ at Uia Real hot*'- to ignore nil issues upon the reconstruc tion policy, put it back where you put the war and secession, as things of the past; unite together iu the living present to make a glorious future. [Applause.] Well, these gentlemen wero willing to do this uml uuito with the Democrats for these purposes, ou condition ouly that tho Democratic party should show that Jt VM mpuLln Of organizing upon that positiou, for if the Democratic party, in attempting to organize upon that posi tion, should go to pieces, or fail, of course there could be inducement for the Liberal Republicans to uuite with a di vided Democracy. I believe, and I will say it to their credit, that every single prominent leading member of the Dem ocratic party iu the Northern States be lieved that the Democratic purty would come to this position. Mr. Yalandigham made the initiative, because he was supposed to bo the last one to be suspected of infidelity to bis party. Dorn a Democrat, raised a Dem ocrat, incapable ot any infidelity to tho I principles or purposes of the party, but a patriot us he was, he came forward to make this movement, which I confident ly believe will succeed, [great applause,] with the solo purpose of saving t ho couu- try. This movement made not tho aiightc*t| concession of principle by the Demot^ll ic party. It conceded nothing but a his torical fact,and based that concession up- two ideas: One was that tho Centra! Government in every department would recognizo and admiuistcr these amend ments, right or wrong; that there was no right of appeal; that the Supreme Court would give no relief, because they were political measures, to be decided by Con gress, and beyond the power of the Court to review. That being the cose, there was no other alternative but to ap peal to the people, and tho people at this time, it was believed, wero not in a con dition to bear the appeal. I call your attention to one distinct fact: no member of the Democratic party North or South, ever dreamed under any circumstances of conceding the justice or the righteousness of the reconstruction policy. Every asser tion to the contrary, is u slan der which ought to bring the blush of shame to all who have uttered ■■[Applause.] There was no purpose iu this movement to collude with what is called tho Radical party in power. The avowed underlying purpose wus to or ganize tho pat riots of the country to turn that party oat of power. [Applause.] Higher, nobler, more patriotic impulses never entered the bosoms of any men of this country in any period of its history. [Applause.] Convention after conven tion of the Democratic party was called at tho North, and every one, I believe without a single exception, endorsed the movement. Hendricks and Hoffman and Seymour and Adams, aud tho whole body of intelligent leading Northern Demo crats concurred in the movement. \\ liy did the Democracy not succeed uuer it x ueoanso (^>puaitiuu iu me [party wuh mode, to such an extent os to ilofout auy organisation with all it* forces upon tbat platform ; atnl the saddest view of the fact ie that this opposition came in bitter terms, and chiefly from kill- Southern State-, which wero to be I’iiiefly bcuctttted by tho movement, friiat great aud good maD, that man whom I ahall go to my grave loving, our former President, Jefferson Davis, [ap- Iplume) iu tho State of Georgia, at this juncture, unfortunately said that he ac cepted nothing. These remarks wero circulated throughout tho North ns evi dence that the Democratic people of the I,South would never como into this move; would not oven recognizo tho amend ments as historical facts, or make any concessions, but wore simply rebellious still. Other distinguished gentlemen indulged in v.-ry extreme utterances upon this subject. Ilmvo no idea they intended wlmt was attributed to them, but they were understood as meaning that tho .Southern people wanted another war, Unfortunately then another great and good man, Mr. Stephens, com menced editing a paper, and his paper was full of slutemeuts that tlicso amend ments should bo treated os nullities, and when the Democratic candidate was elect ed, that lie was to proclaim them assuch. These men were held us the represent ative men of tho South, controlling the South, and without the South tho Demo cratic party was powerless; uml therefore the leading men at tho North, feeling that the party at theSouth was unjust to them, lost spirit, became indifferent and said if the South will accept no movement that will relievo them, lot tho South go. That indifference nt the North, thus produced, caused this move to fail. The Democracy was defeated in nearly all the State elections last fall. Gentlemen, it is one of the saddest portions of tho his tory of this country that tlioso who brought forward this movement were slandered aa unworthy of your trust aud eon Adeline. That great and noble man, Vullamhghnu), was declared to ho no Democrat, was declared to bo a traitor to Ids party. It lias been charged as an outrage that n few hundred thousand Republicans, at most, should require the whole Democratic parly, witli its re ported three millions of votes, to oouie over to them, and that is compared to a tug boat currying a big steamer into the liariior. The original lielicf was that these Republicans would come into tho Democratic purty, it it could show strengtli to win the tight upon that prin ciple, and if the attempt was made and failed by reasou of the extreme opiuimis to which I liuvo alluded, tho Republi cans could not bo expected to join a di vided Democracy. Rut wlmt was to be done ? Wus tut whole cause-to be surrctidtrod V Ws, centralism to go ou ? Wus tho General Government still to continue its oppres sion ?

A call was made for Republicans will ing to cui loose from the ruliug dy nasty, to meet at Ciuciunati aud orgauize upon that buhis. One of the most distinguish ed orators of the Uuiou, going into the different part* of the West aud coming as far South as Nashville, mado speech es in favor of the move. They wort grand orations, full of patriotism. Rut soon tho move seemed to wane, and those who looked to it with hopo began to grow faint; but ju«t at this critical period a large number of the Republicans of New York, with Horace Greeley at tho head, came out and joined tho movement. [Applause. boon tho Cooper Institute mooting was called, nml for tho first time Senator Trumbull, of Illinois, took open and firm position with the Liberals. It went ou swelliug daily. It grew into large pro portions. Ono of the most patriotic 'entions of our history assembled nt Cincinnati. The plutform which they adopted embodies in a large degree the principles of the Democratic party. They put iu a few words that contain a little pepper and vinegar, but they were slight. Nobody dreamed that Mr. Gree ley would become the nominee, because a reveuuo tariff was expected to bo a plank, nnd it was considered an insupera ble barrier to Mr. Greeley's nomination. Rut wiso aud patriotic men iu a great cause will not let small things stand iu tho way of success. It was proposed that this question of tho tariff should bo re ferred back to the people, aud let the people sottlo it to suit themselves. This removed tho difficulty, and Mr. Greeley, a timely supporter, was nominated; and Gratz Drown, one of tbs origin hi movers, who struck the shackles from the Demo crat* of Missouri, was put os the second mun. [Applause.] With this movement the Democratic party had no active connection. A great many sympathized with it, and declureil that if the Convention should ndopt a sensible plutiorm they would recommend their party to make no nomination, but uuite with them ill defeating n common enemy. Now, you have iu a few words the origin, tiie meaning, tho purpose aud the philosophy of what some have styled tho New Departure. [Applause.] Aud it is brim full of patriotism from its origiuul inception to this hour. Wlmt will tho Democratic party do ? That I came hero to diseuss with you to night. The regular Radical, tllrough- bred, centralizing partyjhave assembled nt Philadelphia, made a platform in di rect antagonisim with Cincinnati, nomi nated their candidates aud ask your sup port. The issue is joined between these two. They are getting ready for tho battle. It is to be a contest for liberty and against empire, against the suspen sion of the glorious writ of habeas corpus. [Applause.] Against Federul bayonet supervision of Htate elections ; and for tho equality of tho Ho u them ota ten «.uJ the Houtheru people. [Great applause.j •—o - ■» battlo has beeu given, aud these gallant men, who quit their party in tho zenitli of.its power, invite your co-operation. [Applause,] That’s all. Now, the Democratic party has to do one of two things: It must cither nomi nate at Baltimore, or it must support Ciuciunati. i need not answer another alternative propounded by Jiulgo Ste phens last uiglit. Ho said: Suppose the Convention at Daltimore should nomin ate Grant. I dost suppose any such a foolish thing. [Laughterand applause.] What I suppose is that tho Democratic party will either nomiimtc a ticket of its own, or it will co-operate with tho Cin cinnati move—oik! or the other, and whatever it shnll do will he ns a party l»y its organization. It is not going to dis band and turn you all loose to stray any where you want to go. Now this is a question upon which they ought to bo allowed to differ. I exceedingly deprecate tho feeling that is being engendered in some quarters. We arc all friends, we all desire tne same end. No enemy is engaged iu this move. I tell my frioud who spoke lost night so eloquently, no man is engaged in this move who i.> opposed to State rights. The only difference between us is, what is tho most effective policy to recover the lost rights of tho States. | Applause. | Homo think it iH by going with Cincin nati. Well, if you think so, you ought to go there. Some th.uk wo can succeed better at Daltimore. Well, if that bo so, thank God, no nan is more willing to take that course than tne ouo who addresses you. Dut who is to determine the question? When friends differ there ought to lie an umpire. I say Democrat* assembled in Daltimoro will determine it, and you aud I ought to go with them, whatever they determine. [Groat nppluuso. J Said my dutingubhed fiiend hist night, I will agree to ubide by Daltimore, pro vided Daltimoro w ill decide according to my ideas. [Laughter.] Well, everybo dy has a right to agree provided Dalti moro will dcoido the prinoiple as he un derstat'd* it, and every man is a party by himself. I put it to your candor, is it reasonable for oD \ two or three men, (for I lielievo that is about all,) [great laughter] to stand tip heforo the Democ racy of this country and say they will agree with tho party, provided the party will agree with them first? If that is rea sonable, there is no use of going to Dal- tiinorc. Just let the three call you to gether and tell you wlmt to do. ( Laugh ter and applause) Wo have either got to do it, or else we have got to he traitors and cowards, and thieves and Radicals [ Laughter. | 1 remonstrate against all such arguments. If I were firing shot at an enemy, 1 would make him feel it on this point, hut I am tiring only nt erring friends, aud from the bottomjof my heart I call to them to coin* hack uml let us go to Daltimore. (Laughter and applause. | Let us all go together, und lot us all co- opemto together, und if there is any fightiug to he done, let us all fight to gether, aud if there is any dying to be done, let us all die together. (Applause.] Now this is just what I want to do. Fellow-citiZ'-ns, if it wero not for a cer tain reason, which perhaps you will tec in the progress of this argument, I would end this address now, and not enter upon the diHCMMinii of that questiou . till be hind, in to w lmt nomination Baltimore ought to make. Whatever may lie mv individual opinion upon that subject, 1 want you to iiinl* r t .ml that if Diltiuior* di lb-m with in-, 1 admit that my opinion is w i on if, and I am going with Baltimore. | Applause. | 1 shall not set my judgment up aa again>t the whole party.

[Applause.J 1 anticipated Mr. YiUl.iudighum h movt went, by some mouths, for a reason applicable alone to Georgia. Kuowiugtliat steps would be[ Liken by certain parties to secure another reconstruction of tho State, by setting aside the election if it should go Demo cratic, I put myself in u positiou to I counteract that movement; and as far as this Statu has been concerned, the result lias been entirely satisfactory. Every where tho people are seuding up shouts that wo have tho Government in our owu hands. Let it be remembered that this result is not attributable, iu tho least degree, to our ultra friends. They have been accomplished, not ouly without their aid, but in spite of their folly. If those who took extreme positions had beeu concurred with, you would,to-night, he under tho administration of a Radical Legislature, with Bullock for Governor, aud bonds issuing like thumb-papers. Dut what shall Daltimore do? 1 con fess to you frankly that this question has given me great trouble. 1 do not dis guise it. 1 do not know that any tpies tion for solution has b on submitted to my luiud to which I have given more] serious nnd earnest consideration. Indcnvored to look at it in every light possible. I have endeavored ixerciso upon it clear, cool, dispassion ate reasou; suppressing my feeliugss, for 1 confess to you if I allowed my preju dices and my feelings to tuko ixissession of my judgment, I would every hour of my life pray God to spare mo to tho day that I could gather this whole record of reconstruction infamy into one pile nnd make ono grand bonfire of it. Dut hush! hush! You and 1 have been taught by bitter experience to submit to many things that were not agreeable, and we may have to submit to many more. We must obey the law. Wo must obey wlmt tho courts declare to bo law. We] have no right to set up our judgments as the only standard of our action. Therefore, [perfectly willing to gather secession, the war and reconstruction into one triune bundle of iufamy and bury them out of sight forever. ^Dut my reason brings mo to tho con clusion tlmt tho Daltimore Convention [will accomplish most good, by co-opera ting with the Cincinnati m jvement.

[Applause.] Ho has stood up like a man from the beginning, and proto-do 1 against every ono of these odi ous features of the rucouutructioa policy. You know that tho main reason why I mid, never can and never will, while God gives mo graco to remember that I am a Southern man and a white nun, approvo th so measures, is because they affect my honor.

As I said in 1HG7 aud in 1808, when all of you concurred with me, I do not and did not propoao to resist tho United States, nor anything they might do. But I said that when Congress passed out side of tho Constitution to oppress the Southern people, and trampled upon their own oaths to gratify tln ir feelings of vengeance against the Southern peo ple aud asked the Southern people to give vitality to that action by their consent 1 said" to Gen.

[Ap plause. | Now, Mr. Greeley comes to our relief upon that point. Though acting with tho Republican party, he, from the bo- ginnig, protested against these features of that policy. Therefore you and l do not violate that principle of honor that we should ever hold dear, by supporting him. This is the first reason why 1 am willing to vote for him. There is another reason why I like Mr. Greeley. He has never been what is culled a partisan ; nnd an independent thinker, 1 think has the greatest honesty. Lot us turn to his history. Bcforo tho war ho defied his party in tin* very hour of its fanaticism, and bold ly declared that if the Southern people desired to secede, they hud tho right to do so. But, said tho gontleni'in, after the war begun ho prosecuted the war. That is true. Can you object to that V Mr. Greeley honestly thought the Southern States had a right to ■(•cede. But when the North waged war anyhow, and the South waged war also, ho joined his own side. I opposed secession; so did a great many other gentlemen, but when our Slate seceded wo went with the State through the war. If you quarrel with Mr. Greeley for going with his State, you must proscribe tno for the same reason, l would go with it again under tho sumo circum stances.
