Splendid Banquet at the Revere House, Where the Hub of the Universe was Well Oiled. SEftENADE AND SPEECHES, The ovation which General Corcoran received on Fri day last In Boston, Hko that with which ha was honored bars In tha city and h<me or h a adoption, on hia return from the prisons of tha South, a week ago, far exceeded anything ever witnessed there before. The whole city poured forth to greet the hero of Bull run, aa ha is popu larly designated, native aad adopted citizens manifest ing in every respect a I Iks desire to give oelat to the oo casion, and to mark alike their appreciation of devotion to country and oou<-age under sufferings. It was Indeed a significant demonstration of honor to tha man?the re prasentat iva mac, It may be aocorded, of the Irish people In this great struggle?and tha nationality and oauae he re presents. The surrounding suburbs and oeuntrjr for miles poured Into the city and lined the streets marked aa the route of the procession, from the contiguous city of Koxbury, where tne train stopped, to the Common, where the military pageant was to be die. missed, and where the man whom the city delighted to honor was to addrcsa his assombled friends. From Fall River along the whole reute to hia destina tion, wherever the oars stopped, crowds of people assem bled to see him, to hear him speak and to cheer him upon his way. Tha most gratifying enthusiusm marked his progress throughout, the inhabitants, from their dwel* Hugs, waving handkerchiefs and flags whon the distance was toe great to allow of their volocs being heard. At Fall River, Myrlck's Station, Tauu'.ou and Manaflekl, the inhabitants had frem early morning assembled in great numbers to greet him, and at these halting points General Corcoran made speeches. He was at each of these places surrounded by hosts of friends, who, with al1 tho warmth of impulsive uaturos and dovated national attachment, pressed together, all anxioua to grasp his hand and spoak a hurried word of welcome. AT ROXBL'RTT the demonstration was exceedingly Imposing, and the exhibition of fouling on the part of tho people rapturous in tho extreme. There was a splendid tura out of mili tary, .and such a display of trade unions as only the prosperous free States of America are capable of making. The crowd that pressed forward, whoa tha railway whistle announced that the object of all this exuberance of sentlmont and welcome bad arrived, threatened to make the labor of tho few policemen around beyond all possible performance; but tho rush was but the im pulse of the moment, and in a moment or two a few words of persuasion sent the excited people back again outside the allotted space kept clear for forming the procession?all save one old man, who would not bo driven from the inner magic circle, hut who would see and talk to the "haro" at his leisure. It was, "thank God," not tho Princo of Wales that they cam# see this time, but a man that we eon s hako by th?> hand. Salvos of artillery echoed forth their noisy welcome as the General stepped from tha ears In company with llayor Gaston, of Roxbury, who joined bim in New York for the purpose; tho Boston Commltteo; Aldennen Farley and Iiaytou, and Mr.rinckney, Presi. dent of the Common Council of our own city, and attend, ed by his personal staff. Under the appointed marsbalf of the day the procession at onco took up the lino of march through the streets of the beautiful little city of Roxbury, and tho signs of welcome whteh everywhere greeted him hers?for tho most part from tho ladies and children who crowded door steps, wladows and bal conies?must have boen most gratifying to the object of all this attenfiwn, and who yet bore hie honors bo meekly as to increase the ardor and admiration of all. There were, In fact, two receptions here?one at Koxbury and tho othor AT BOSTON. Hdra at the city line the proccaakm halted for a few mtuutea to enable the marshals of the day, tn counection with the Boston programme. to-prepare tho order of march. Ilore alio Mayor Gaston formally Introduced Uenernl Corcoran to hit Honor Mayor Wightmau, of IJos ton . who welcomed the General in the name of the city government and of tha citieens at large. WKI.COUI BY MAYOR WIGHTMAN. Ho aald:?Gkxkrai.?It is with sincere pleasure that t welcome yon to the city of Ronton, and tender to you its hospital it lea during your brief but gratifying visit to this metropolis, it will be our endeavor to render your so journ us agreeable to you as I trust M wlii be worthy of the guest of our city. The General saluted the Mayor, and immediately took a seat in the barouche by bis aide without any further reply. THE PROCESSION then moved to the roar of cannon, the music of tlie b inds, which headed the numerous military and civic oomp-inies, oud-the cheers of the assembled multitude, which lied congregated in greet numbers at this |a>iut, In cotisouueuco of the halt and tho coremouy of welcome of which it wai the sceae. The military display was acknowledged to lie the finest ever before seen in Ponton; and us lor the trades and benevolent and other octehee, in appouruuuo and numbers thoir turnout w is beyond all former comparison. A beautiful feature in the procession was a carriage modelled ao as to represent tuo ship of state, in which were seated thirty-lour beautiful youug girl-, front nine to ten or oleven years of age, represent ing tlm "Vales of the I'nlon restored, which, n? we hope, through the providence of God und the bravery of tlie=e who art; fighting to that end, to see it ere long, i'hroc young damsels were dressed in white and wore garlands of tlowcrs <>u their heads, green satin ribbons round lliclr walls, and in their hands they carried amall flags?the stars aud Stripes?which tlioy waved ineca auDtly. They we>e enthusiastically cheered, us repre nentuiivi-s of the I ui<>n, along the whole line. Immouso crowds lined the streets through which tho procession purred, and the greeting from all was of the moot flut tering .mil euth'uivjt.c kind. Manners aud flags waved everywhere, bearing mottoes appropriate to the occasion, and all intended ss a tribute to f heir city's gue-it ON THE COMMON. The military and civic proportion or the precession p.o--ixl on to the Cnmmoa, w bore the baiou.hu tamtam Hg OeHfil Catooisn was baited favorably for a view of the scene which was here presented, and which, Indeed, ?ur(?saed description. The tmmcn&o gathering, a largv porte 11 of whom were ladies, occupied the mope ami stimuli of Flagstaff Hill, the line spreading to tho railing on the left, and to a considerable distance again to the right of the plat form from which the speeches were to be delivered.

As many ps >ple here are perhaps under the impression that the North is In part responsible Tor tins war, I would say, in order to dispel that idea, that the North is not In the most remote degree responsible for it. (i hcors and ''That's so!") Neither is the South, as a people, responsible for tbl.t war. A few disappointed poll tlctans. a few tbieves and traitors, who have beou plotting tuid concocting plans for the destruction and overthrow of tliia republic for at least thirty years, are alono responsible lor the misfortune* that have fallen upon if. tf th e contest was an attempt to nnkc war upon the South < u isvople, to tut'-rfore with any righU of thotrs th.it we.-c guaranteed to them under the constltnt'on.
