Secretary Boutwell bturod on Wedm? day last to a large audience assembled the Mercantile Library Hall, Boston, u-:n "Tho Transition Period of tho United States." He said that if the years of our national life were divided into periods of ten veaj, thedeoado now closing would, undoubt edly, prove the most important. The seventy vcars previous to liw bad been a constant struggle between two hostile powers of civiliz u ion in the nition. He had reasons to bolicvo that had there not been persons ol' eminence to defend slavery before the adoption of the Federal Const it ii lion, the system would havo be ;n destroyed. Every body believod that it would die out ; thU it was local in its character, and, destitute of power. T tie frtuuersof ihe Constitution recognizing it. j gave it political power in tho (ioverumen . ; The iniroduc'iou of cotton as the staple o the Slave section soon gave it a new im ; portance. Slavery was not denounced, but tolerated at that p-jriod. Subsequent Iv it was sitoeked and defended, when it i pretenled a new asjiect. It was inevitable j lha'. in a free couutry an investigation Of th' system by (lie peaiplo would end in lis l : des-ruotion. Iu the contest for tho mas tery each section iu its way succeeded; he South, by its wealth ceutered ill a few, aided by the Constitution in gaining con trol Of the QoTernnaent; the North, by its I industry sad eulerprise iu developing its 1 vast commer'-isl.mercantile and Industrial j ; resources. Thus, when tho war esjne the I North was rich in material; and, had the ! i Som h been compelled to rely on its own I i resources, tae contest would not nave i lasted more than two and a half years, j When the representatives of the South re I limiuished their seats in Congress they abandoned the power they hud gained. Tho result was the dost ruction of slavery, ; the adoption of the Xlllth Constitutional 1 Amend Went, and the subsequent ralillca 1 lion of the XIVlli to secure the ad van -tapes gained by the Xlllth. The ratlfiea I tiou oi the XVth Atueudtncnt will secure ; to all the equal right to elect and be elect ed to office; not ;ocial equably merely, but the equality which abolishi-s the dis- tiactioa between tha citizen and the serf. exemplifying the great truth that "all '. men are "created equal." Mr. Boutweli said theie was a misunderstanding in the (Rfbtie mind as to tho signification ef the ' words riht to be elected to public em ployment." It was simply that by law a i citizen was not excluded tne right ex- is-tu in ine peuiue to elect ntm who was ; best able to perform the duties. Those wise men who threw themselves upon the people for their suffrages by popularity, openly or indirect lv sought, in contradis ' Unction to those Who were sought for bv I the people, to meet the great public ever I ger.cifs. Popularity gainid as in ihe :irsi ! instance was a disgrace to its possessors; j in the lalier ease, glory. The lecturer classed in the latter class the bite, Mr. I Stanton, who, ho claimed, did as much tri secure the Vnlon victory as did anvsol I iier who fought (Jeltysburg, and whoso i character should bH held up tor the Imita ! lion of t he coming meu The great events i of the decade have furnished to tho peo ! jde.
