Immouse Meeting at Cooper Inst*
tute-
Indorisment »f the Pr* s dent’s Policy,
Speech by Secretary Seward.
llis views of the Present Crisis.
lie If usiulna the Peoideiit’i Courue.
New York, Nb. 22—Mr Seward
said, after a few words of introduction :
*• What shall I speak of, or about ? The
call of your meet iug specifies the subject
—but fir.-t let me say that. lam not here
as an alarmist. I am- not here to say
that the nation is in pf-ril or danger—in
peril if you adopt the opinions in peril
if you rcjei t them-—io peril if you adopt
the views of the appal ent or r al majority
of Congress, or if vou reject them.
It is net hi peril any way ; nor do I
think the cause of liberty and human
reedom, the cause of progress ameliora
tion or civilization, the cause of nation
al enlargement, present or future, ma'e
rial or moral, is in danger of being long
arrested, wlfeth tr you adopt one set of
political opinions or another.. The Un
ion, that is to say the Nation, has biOa
restored from all its perils.
The noble ship has passed from tem
pests ami billows into the verge o r a sale
harbor, and is now serenely riding into
her ancient moorings without a broken
spar or leak, starboard or larb ard, lore
or aft. There are some small reefs yet
to pass as she approaches those moorings.
One pilot says that she may safe-y sail
directly through them. The other say's
that she must back, and lowering sill,
eo around them. That is all the differ
ence. It is merely the difference of op n
ion between the pilots. 1 could not prac
ticetny habitual charity if I did not ad
mit that I think them both sincere ami
honest. But the vessel will go in safely
one way or the other. Tne worst that
needs happen will be that by taking the
wrong instead of the right passag •, or
even taking the right passage and avoid
ing the wrong one, the vessel may roll a
little, and soaie honest, capable, and
even deserving politicians, statesmen,
President or Congressmen, may get
washed ovei board. 1 should be sorry for
this, but if it cannot be he p d it can be
borne. If lam on* of the unfortunates,
let no friend be concerned on that ac
count. As honest, as geon, as capable
politicians, statesmen, Congressmen and
President, will make their appearance
hereafter faster than needed to command
the ship, as well and as wisely as any
that have here ofure s alked their hour
upon lhe deck, in the alternations of
calm and tempests that alaays attend
political navigation.
Nevertheless, although I do not think
that we are in a crisis, the question to
day is worthy of deliberate examination
and consideration. The subject before
us is a difference of opinion that reveals
i'Self but too clearly be. ween the Presi
dent and Congress. 1 l.e P... . ■i-'t,. as
we all see, is a man of decided convic
tions. The legislative leaders* are try
ing not to couiui ide with him in op u
ion. They have appealed to us outsid
ers, as it • weie, tv pronounce between
them.
The -peaker then went on to prove
that there was actually mi difference xf
ovimon between the President and Con
gr.ss, however much it may seem other
wise. He said they both have got the
Union restored as originally planned.—
it should be without slavery, secession
or compromise; not with fn- dmen and
refugees abandoned to sufie i g and per—
secu ion, but. with freedmen empkyed
in productive, seif-.-us.aimiig industry ;
with relugeea under the protection of law
and order. The President se-. s that it
has come out right at last, . and he ac
cepts the situation. Cougn ss, on the
Oilier band, hesitate, delay, debate and
agonize, not because it has not come out
right, but because they have not individ
ually had their own way in bringing it
to that happy termination.
I apprehend no serious difficulty from
the conviction that there never was and
never can be, anv successful process for
the restoration of the Union and harmos
nv ann ng the States, except the one
with which the Pr sidont has avowed
himself satisfied. Grant it that the re
bellion has been dispersed, ended and
exhausted, dead even at the roo’, then it
f illows necessarily, that the States, -soon
er or later, must be or(ran : zed by loyal
men, in accordance with the cbang* in
our fundamental law, and resume their
place in Congress All the rebel States
but. Texas have done just this thn g. and
Texas is doing the same as fast as possi
ble.
The President is in harmonv with all
the States that were in rebellion, and the
Executive and Judieinry departments
are rapidly resuming their functions, —
Loyal Representatives, more or less,
from those States, are standing at the
door of Congress and have been standing
there for three months, askiiis to he ad
mitted to the seats which the dish yal
represen'atives had previously lefr. Mon,
while Cor gross passes law after law, im.
posos burden after burden, and duty af
ter duty upon those States wh ch, against
their earnest des re, are left no represent
ed. I feel sure tha’ loyal men, from the
now loyal States, will, sooner or later, he
admitted into this Congress or the next.
When this is done the process of recon
struction is complete, for that is all that
remains to be done.
The speaker thoutrht that territorial
governments for the seceded States per
fectly impracticable. This was also re
jected by Mr. Lincoln. Say what you
will, the States arc already organized in
perfect harmony with our amended Na
tional Constitution, and are in earnest
co operation with the Federal Govern
ment. It is impossible to rt-duce States
to a territorial condition Congress has
had a Reconstruction Comm’t’ee, com
posed of members, who have
stopped the wheels of legislation three
months to enable them to submit a plan
different from that which is now on the
eve of a, happy consnmation And what
have they given us? One proposed
■ amend ncnt to the Constitution to compel
I the excluded States to equalize suffrage
upon penalty of abridgment of repre
sentation. Th's wis no plan of recon,
struct on, but one of obstruction.
Tne Re oluli in which ; a-sed the
House Tuesday last, directly declared
that loyal Representatives shall not be
admitted from loyal States until Con
gr< ss shall pass a law for that purpose,
which law cannot be enacted without’
the President’s approval, and which can
not be consistently given in view of the
O;i lions he is l,n wn to entertain, 'this
resolution, then, is not a plan for recon*
construction, but for indefinite postpone
ment and delay. When the rebellion
In ga i we determined to humb'e thee ,
ai d brought them backvvithhumiliat.cn
ai d lepentence.
No 11 ite has ever been hindered in
coming into the Uninn except on tie
question of African bondage, which has
now gone to the dogs, surely finished.—
Ni St-jiSe will hereafp r be 'hindered in
coming into the Union on the ground of
slavery. A territ >ry wants to be a State
because it is a pleasant and goi d thing
to possess the privileges of a .■state. I
would not keek a State in a territorial
condition any longer than compelled.—
In beginning, practically, every State
has slavery. We abolished it in some
States with t.isorder, and when slavery
raised itself in opposition to the Go -
eminent, we destroyed it altogether.—
W e have done all this in nicety years,
without imperial Government, or the
proconsular territorial system, and in
equal States presided over by a Federal
or restricted Government. They are
settling the whole case of the African
in the Wi st Indies just as we are.
Ti e confl ct of opinion between the
President and Congress, in reference to
t e Freedmen’s Bureau, is, in its con
sequence S, comparatively unimportant,
and would excite little interest if it
stood alone. Both agree that this Ba
teau was crea ed for the transition pe
riod between war and p ‘ace, and shmid
cease at the end of that period The
President thinks that period nearly
passed and the original provisions suffi
cient, while Congress thinks the origi
nal prpvisions need enlarging.
1 agree with the President in the hops
that the extraordinary provision which
the bJI makes will not be necessary, but
that lhe whole question may be simpli
fied by simple reference the existing
law. The law of March 3, 1865, which
C<rated the Freedmen’s Bureau, provides
that it shah continue in force during the
war of the rebellion, and one full year
thereafter. When does that year expire?
lu the President’s judgment, ah 1 under'
stand the matter, the war of rebellion
hus been coming, and is still co i ing to
an end, but is not yet fully closed. It
is on this ground that he maiut ins an
army, continues the suspended writ of
habeas corpus, and exercise of martial
law, when these things were found ne
cessary in the rebel States. The exist
ence of rebellion was illegally announced
by Executive proclamation in 1861; the
end of rebellion ought to be and may be
expected to be announced by competent
declaranon by the President suing for
lii.v. The popular voice tvt.s that
all Members of the family, however prod
igal they had been, would be received at
the board. These est >rts at obstruction,
then, are as impracticable, I think, as
tie. ate vicious. No S ate can keep it*
sett out of the Union, or keep itself in a
territorial condition in the Union.
The States which are in the Union
cannot be taken or kept out of its limits.
States that are in the Union cann it keep
any States that are outside from com ng
in. Congress is habitually inclined to
th s experiment. It hesitated about Mt
c i gau and Missouri, reeled and s agger
e 1 over Texas and California, and cm
v. sej the nation about Kansas. Yet
they are all in the Uuioo, all happy, all
loyal.
How many committees of conference
did we have? How many joint resolu
tions, denying that Congress ever would
consent to the admission of such unwel
come intruders? lluw many compromis
es securing guarantees for freedom and
for slavery, were broken and scattered,
when one after another of these States
came in as if by a headlong thrust, hurl
i d by Almighty Providence, who was de
termined the people of this comment
•should not be many discordant nations,
but one united nation.
lhe joint committee of 15, in 1849,
succeeded in excluding California tor
eight mouths, until the majority of the
nation should compromise and silence
forever the debate upon slavery. The
compromise was, by its terms, to be per
petual.
Tha comprom'se of 1850 lingered for
fmr years, and then p< r.shed, giving
p ace to the now happily consunim >t d
a ijustment ot the slavery question, by
the complete abrogation of that inst.tu
tiuu. When I left Congress, in 1861,
Comm ss oners and Conventions demand
ed stipulations that fetters be pot on New
Mexico, Nevada and Colorado. You
never can keep Stans out of the* Union,
lhe present distrust of future Slates, or
of existing States, have no sub.-t .ntve
grounds. Trey are b. gotten of miseta
ble tears aud tactions. If ever this thing
of keep trg out States by joint resou.
tiotis of Congress could harebad a ch nice
of pci maneiit success, that time m s pass
ed away. For all practical ,u ! ■ set the
rebellion will, in law, come to an en 1, if
the President or Congress, one or both,
officially announce its termination.
Now, suppose this announcement to
be made by the President and by Cons
gress, or by ei'herof them, to morr..w.
In that case the Freedmen's Bureau s
continued by virtue of the termination
prescribed in the act of March 3, 1865,
one year after such proclamation shall
have been made ; thus the Frec-dnn n’s
Bureau would continue, by the < tig rial
limitation, until the 22d day of Fcbiuary
1867, a very proper day on which io
bling it to an end. If Congress should
find st necessary to prolong its existence,
it can at once take the necessary steps,
lor it will at that date have beet; in ses
sion nearly three months.
Ought the President of the United
States to be denounced in the house of
! his enemies; much less ought he to be
denounced in the house of bis friends, for
icfusing, in the absence of any necessity
I to occupy or retain, and to exercise pow-
I ers greater thau 'Loss which are exercis-
ed by any Imperial magistrate in the
world ?
Judge ye ! I trust this fault of de
clining imperial power, too hastily ten
dered by a confiding Congress, may be
forgiven by a generous people. It will
be a sad hour for the Republic when the
refusal of unnecassary powers and pa
tronage by the President shall be held a
crime. When it shall be bo construed,
the time will have arrived for setting
up at the White House an imperial
thr me, and surrounding the Executive
with imperial legions.
The meeting was also aedressed by
Postmaster General Dennison, Henry J.
R )no d Fiancis B Cutting, Daniel S.
Dick nsou, aud George Opdyke, and dis
persed at a late hour.
