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. ATLANTA AD VER iISEMENTS.
