aocai ?L..*? night Hon. Frauds P. Blair, mem
b-r of Congress from Missouri, was honored with
aserennde by Dodwrrth's bind, at th? residence
of hi* brother, Hon. Montgomery Blair, Post
master General. A largo crowd was in attend
ance.
Aftrr the band had played a number cf airs,
Mr Chauncjr Schaffer, of New York, appeared at
the door holding In his hand the star spangled
banner, the flag which waved over the Freeborn
when Captain Ward was killed On the an
Bouocrirent hv Mr. SchxflVr that thla ?n tli? fl * a
above alluded to: that It wai a good old faabione3
one, with only thirteen atari; that It had been
shot at a good manv timet, but not a atar hit, the
crowd cheered loudly, and the band played the
'Star Spangled Banner " Mr.SchalTer then an
nounced that Col Blair, who had been chiefly
Inatrumental In ?avlng one border State to the
Union, waa preaentand wouldaddreaa the crowd.
(Cheera and crlea for Blair.)
Col Blair ahortly afterwards appeared, and waa
received wiMi deafening rbeera. He thanked the
people for the compliment tendered him, and
aaid that In tbeae timet be auppoted a man who

upon any other question than the ^rrat onewb'cb
now occupies the minds of the people, vis : the
present condition of the country.
While be did not know that he was competent
to paaa on what had been done, and what ought
to be done, be held himself entitled to hia own
opinion as to the justice of this war and tbe pro
priety of prosecuting it with vigor.
L'Ving In one of tne slave States, he knew the
feeling of a lar^e majority was against this rebel
1: a <V. _ -? - ? ?
in*", yei luty wcrr ueia in coeri Dy ? tyrannic
minority wbo had atnlen the arms of the govern
in* nt through tbe Imbecility of a corrupt admin
istration. and were now uelng them to cut down
tbe loyal pro, le of thoae Statea Shall we, be
aaked, prosecute thta war to deliver tbe South
from the oppreMoraT Look at Enat Tciimwc,
In which a lartre majority hca unmlatakibly de
clared for the Union; yet abe la fnvlroned by tbe
boatlle forcea of her enemlra la It not aa proper
for oa to lend Immediately for their relief and
place arma 1b their handa, with which to aaaert
and maintain their rlghta; aa It waa to aead aid to
Forta Sumter and Plckena
Mr Blair alluded to tbe State of Maryland, In
which only two weeka a*o tbe people d-c'ared,
by an overwhelming vote, their loyalty to the
Union; and yet they have In their mldat a neat of
oopper-beads?the State Legislature?who have
bean and are plotting and consplMng ?o revolti
tion.xetbat State, and drag her into this infamous
plot to break np and destroy the government of
th- United S'a'es
He ?poke in sarcastic terms of the boasted chlor
al y of the South that manifested itaeli In tbs aaaas
mritl of our picket*, but said that there was a
genuine chivalry there which would put down
Fbe rebels if promptly aided by the federal au
tLorlMes.
Nine out of every ten persons in Missouri, he
said, are f x the Union. yet her l<egltlature hive
been for six months plotting to carry th*t State
at of um U Ion. The loyal men of that Stat*
were not even permitted to defend the arms of
the government in the arsenal owing to the crimi
nal mlscuilduct of the Atata tilmlnlitfitlnn
Wben, however, the present administration came
into power arm* were pliced In tbe band* of her
loy?l citizens. of wblch tbey hart already and
would continue to give a good account. So would
It be is every southern State were all loyal citi
zens thus aaaiated.
Col. Blair declared that he waa for the war till
not an enemy ta left In hostility to tb? govern
ment He waa now, aa heretofore, agalnat any
compromise, for any compromise, In hla opinion,
would breed ten worae wan! We could Uavs no
lasting p*ace until tbe foca of tbe country were
rendered Incapable of further resistance.
A dragoon pa Med by at this point repealing

would no: leave tbla government a* our forefath

In tbe course of his remarks he highly com pll
mented Gen Lvon, of MlMourl, who bad always
fuugfct for victory, acting upon tbe principle, of
tbe Irishman In toe light, " Wherever you see a
head bit it," [excessive laughter] without waiting
for others to demonstrste hew many hard knocks
you can first bear, which wmi to be the policy
pursued by some general* now leading our armies
He df<1 not deem It proper or right to crltlclae the

fided tbe manageine ?t of this war; but tbe people
all ny that General Scott can gain us a victory
whenever be choses to do so, and tbey are wait
