SPEECH OP EX.PRESIDENT PIERCE.
1 alluded to a call made on Gen. P erce Saturday
light. Trie Patriot of to-day contains an account
of it, and also the General’s response, which I en
close. The Patriot says
* * At about 0 o’clock this mob, numbering
then from 1100 to 400, appeared about the door of
the residence of Gen. Pierce, and surprised him
with vociferous calls. Immediately the door was
thrown open, and in the blaze of the entry light
"The ex-President appeared upon tiie steps and ad
dressed to the assemblage the remarks which fol
low. It is due to the crowd to say that the mo
ment onr distinguished lellow-j ilizen appeared
and -I'tered one or two sentences, with the excep- \
tion of occasional remarks, such as “.hat’s so,’’
and “that’s good,'1 “that’s true,” absolute quiet
and si let. e prevailed while lie. was speaking.— I
When he uttered his “goodnight," they responded 1
with a hearty “good night," and three cheers for ,
Ihe General, and retired as juietly as though there
had been no scene of excitement in the day.—
This, at least, was creditable.

Fc.lote- lownsmtn—l eamo to ascertain the mo
tives of this call. W.hat is your desire?
[Some person in the crowd replied: “We wish
to near some words from you on this sad occasion.”
Gen. P erce proceeded :j
I wish 1 c aid address you in words of solace;
but that can hardly be done. The magnitude of the
calamity, in all aspects, is overwhelming. If your
hearts are oppres ted by events more calculated to
awaken p-ofound sorrow and regret thaT> >ny which
have hitherto occurred in our history, 40 mingles
its deepest regrets and sorrows with \ w s.
It is to be hoped that tho great wickedness and
atrocity was confined, morally and actually, to the
heads and hearts of but two individuals of ail those
who still survive on this continent; and that they
may speedily, and in obedience to law, meet the
punishment due to their unparalleled crimes. It is
well that you—it is well that I—well that all men
worthy to be called citizens of the United States,
remake manifest, in all suitable forms, the emotions
incident to the bereavement and distress which
have been brought to the hearts and homes of the
two most conspicuous families of the Republic. 1
give them ray warm, outgushing sympathy, as 1
am sure all persons within the hearing of my voice
must do.
But beyond personal grief and loss, there will
abide with us . levitably the most painful memories.
Bo:ause, as citizens obedient to law, revering the
Constitution, holding f»st to the Union, thankful
(\>r the period ot history which succeeded the
Revolt!'i>n in so many years of peaceful growth
and prosperity, and loving, with the devotion ol
true and faithful children, all that belongs to the
advancement and glory of the nation, we can never
forget >r 'ease to deplore the g eat crime and deep i

It is not necessary for mo to show my devotion
for the stars and stripes by any special exhibition,
or upon the demand of any man or b >dv of men.—
My anco tor-i followed it through the Revolution—
one of them, at least, never having seen his
mother's roof from the beginning to the close of
that protracted struggle. My brother followed it
in the war of 1812, and 7 left ray family in the
spring of 1*17, among yo.i, to follow its fortunes
and maintain it upon a foreign soil.
But this you all know. If the period during
which I have served our State and country in va
rious situations, commencing more than thirty-five
years ago, has left the question of niv devotion to
the flag, the Constituti m and the Union in doubt,
It is too late now to remove it by any such exhibi

—Such doubts from minds where they may have been
cultivated by a spirit of domination and partisan
rancor, if such a thing were possible, would be of
no consoqueoce to you, and it is certainlv ef none
to me. The malicious questionings would return
to reassert their supremacy and pursue the work of
injustice.
Conscious of the infirmities of temperament,
which, to a greater or less extent, beset us all, I
have never felt or found that violence of passion
was ultimately productive of beneficial results.—

briefer than mine, has led your minds to the same

this general thought id the final reported conversa J

and with that de-patch comes news to warrant the
cheering hope that, in sp te of the knife -f the as-1

fragrance and beauty as long as the sun shall lust upon
the earth and heart's remain to revere truth, fidelity
and goodness. Mr. Beecher then went on to speak of
ths Joyous feelings of the people just previous to the
tragedy at Washington and contrasted it with the over
whelming grief into which the nution was at suddenly
plunged. Every household in the land seemed as if its
first born wete gone. Bnsincss, pleasure, and even ava
rice stood still. Bear to his n une monuments found
charitable iuatitntions and write his name above them,
but no monument wi.l evereijual the universal, sponta
neous and sublime sorrow that in a moment swept dow n
lines and parties, covered up animosities, and in one
hou-brought a peoplo into unity of grief and fellowship
ot anguish. For the present he could not command h.s
feelings to delineate the martyr President's character,
but would doso on a future occastoi. Tho first point be
uvula uaa that tin* nation <linnl<l ne? mourn flint hia rii
I ui tare was so sudden, nor (ill the imagination at the
method of his departure. He led by toe bullet like the
soldier in battle, and yet there w«s not a drummer boy
or private for wh >tn the great heart of Lincoln would
not have bled. 2dly. The blow was but the expirirg rede!*
lion. In eli eidatinfjthis po nt Ur. Beec tier sp ike in the
most denunciator b no--of slavery. which was a two
edged sword cutting both ways destroying manhood in
the oppressed ind ins diously destroying manhood in
the 0 pi ress- r. Slavery began in a wanton des'ruetion
of all hu-nan right-, in the desecration of all the sanc
tities ol home, and was the universal enemy of man
ic nd, and it could only be maintained at the siorifl'-e of
every moral feeling in its abetters and upholders. The
prob em was solved that slavery wasted its victim, de
stroyed public morality, and the men living under its
inflioenoe were rotten and could not be trusted. Nor
can you find timber, raid be. grown in this accursed soil
of perdition, that is fit to build the ship of fe'trte or
lay foundations for households. The patriotism that
grows up under this blight, wh -n put to proof is selfish
and brn al; and he that leans on it shall be p creed.—
The honor that grows up in the midst of slavery is not
honor: but abasta:d quality that usurps the pla e of
its betters only to disg-ace tire name of honor and so
long as the e is -onecience or reason, Christianity will
be a byword and a hissing. The whole mosal nature
ot man reared to familiarity and connivance with
slavery was death smitten. Tne needles-rrebellion, the
treachery of its leade s to oaths and solemn trusts
their violation of the commonest principles of
fidelity, sitting in councils only to be betrayed
and ’ destroyed, and the unparalleled cruelty to
prisoners without provocation and utterly without ex
cuse showed that slavery was a deadly po:s<n. There
were single exceptions to this remark: but they weie
men who did not believe in the -institu ion " S avery
was barbarl y. andthit nation t lat cherished it wee
barbarous. It was fit that ita expiring blow should be
such as to take away from men the lest forbearance the
last ity, and fire the son! with invincible determination
that Ih1 bre dins g oui d of su h mischiefs ; nd monsters
shall be utterly ^ud forever destroyed. We needed not
that he should put on paper that he belie ed in slavery,
who, wit’ treason, w ith murder and with cruelty infer
nal, hover-d around th.»t msjestii man to destroy life.
H was himself but the long sting with which slavery
struck at liberty, and he carried the po son that belonged
to s:avery. And as long »s this nation lasts it ivi 1 never
be forgotten that we h ne had one martyred President—
never never. While time lasts, while Hc-rvet las's
while hell recks and froan«. w II it be forg >*en that
slavery by its minions slew him, and. in luying him,
made manifest its wlio'e nature and tendenc . Thirdly—
The blow was aimed at the life of the government r.nd
of lie niton. L ncoln waa slain, bnt A meric; was
mount. In mating th's point Mr. Beecher stated that,
in a council held in the city of Charleston, prece
ding the attack on Fort Sumter, the Federal commis
sioner who was appointed to go to Washington, t ad an
interview with Governor Pickens, who opened to him
all the setreta of the Southern council, and said
that the Scuth had never been wronged and
they knew it, that they had never been oppresreI
by the government, far they had go\ern»d the country;
yet it was necessary for honthern statesmen to make
thr peiple be i ve so. Gov. Pickens declared that the
two-cations were »o antagon ize n ideas uad iodes
trial policies teat they could not live together. Fourth
ly—the blow had signally failed. The cause is not

limself for his life long has known what it is to suffer
from the stings of slavery, and cnes ‘ liberty” through

with a woman’s tenderness and moderation of
sp.rit. which the heat of party could not inflame,
and then dwelt in pathetic strains upon the loss
which the coloted people had experienced in his

ADDITIONAL developments.
A Washington correspondent of the New York limes
says:
There is an immense force at work on the conspiracy
and the track of the conspirators. When the time conics
for revelations, such startling facts will b« levelled as
will make people shudder. It will then be seen that all
the talk abou' Kaights of the Golden Circle,” "Sons
of Liberty.” ‘ American Kniglits,” Ac., was not without
foundation that though much of the action of such
bands was either futile or betrayed, yet from tbe seed
thus implanted, fostered by inspiration drawn from the
enemy’s coffers, sprang the hellish idea of assassins
tion and the tools by which it was successfully exe
cuted were only a tithe of the class who would have
dme the same thing had they possessed sufficient
nerve. *
The people of the South will suffer the consequences
of this great crime, though they may have never con
nived at it. lint it will be known intheeui that the
chief instigators of the crime were Northern men. who,
under the cloak of "free speech." ‘ liberty of person.” Ac.,
denounced Abraham Lincoln as a merciless tyrant, aid
conceived tbe plot to take his life. .
ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE.
Somefdaya ago we garean account of the arrest of
Paine.who.it is alleged, attempted the assassination
of secretary Seward. On Tuesday it was discovered that
this prisoner had attempted to take his own life, by out
ting his bead against the iron wails of his prison. It
w*s lound that he had beaten his head almost into a
jelly, and was bleeding profusely. A cap was prepared
for him. padded a 1 over and fastened securely upon his
head, and his Jiands secured so that he can do nimielf
no for'her injury.
SOMETHING MOKE ABOUT BOOtfll.
J. F Duncan, a trustworthy citizen of Pittsburg
mentions a singular circumstance in connection with
Booth’s assassination of the President. While stopping
at the McHenry House in Meidviile on the 4th of June
last. Ilioth wrote on a Dane of gl s*. with his diamond
ring the following in-* ription : ' Abo Lincoln dejmrtwd

Booth's aami was written on the hotel register in the

times occupied the somi room. A complete register has
been kept of tbe names of the occupants of tLat room
since June last.

paper and gold.
What is to be the relative value of our goio and pa.
per currency, under the prospective circumstances and
conditionof the cou-ury ccnaot per naps be proximate
ly estimated ever now in tbe light oi the fas orab.e pro
cress of military measures fer the restorat ion of nation
authority in the seceded Btat*e. *--ept only by con
sidering the scope atd character of the existing legi-flu •
tion on the subject of paper issues. The amount ol th*
legal tenders and rational and state b«nk paper - atitn
t ng the cnrrency, is stated to be nine hundred million, o*
over. The legal tenders (including the interest leering
embrace over six hundred and fifty mi llions of this ag
gregate sum, and the idea is put forth that the fcecre
tury ol the Treasury will not authorize any in rr seoi
the amount of such issues, but, on the cotitrait. stead
ily endeavor to reduce it. Such policy, of cour-e world
tend to keep down the premium on gold, or more orrect
ly speaking, prevent or modify the d-ipreciatiou of j ape'
money. In the mean time, however, tlw arguments’Uon of
the national bank currency goes on at the rated from
two millions and a half to three millions and a half per
week. Up to the first of April instant, its total amount
was one hundred and eleven mil ions, six hundred and
thirty f ur thousand A partial, but ouly p.ulia .set
off to this will be found at present in the * i LJ.twal of
tire issues of the Mate b::tif • as they adopt the new *>'*
tern. But the aggregate of loth national and Mate
bank issues, must, under the tx sting law. after the Is;
1866, be I ■ It tbra* hundred mi IUom. This
.s estimated at quite a -iJlicient circulating ir.ed.ura.
added to the stock of prec’ous metals and s’eady goid
production. for the business and ex 1 ances of the coun
try when it shall have returned to u condition of peace,
or anything lile tie normal state of affair*. There
would, doubtless, however, le a more expanded field fo:
the employment of capital in the country than ever b»
tore with the war finally terminated, and the expense*
of govirnmtnt must ever lie large hereafter in comparl
son with what thev formerly were.
It a calculated that by the time the limit of three hun
dred mi lions for rite aggregate bank circul'tion be
comes effective, the fctate banks gene-ally will either
wind up or be organized on the national b sis. and one
potent provision to tbe accomplishment of that er.d is
the imposition of a ten pc-r centum tax on t. eir ciicula
tion. to take effect af er the 1st July, 1866. The- the
national bank system is designed to supercede, after Urn
establishment of pe*ce, not only ail local banks and
their currency, but the government paper currency,
which, it seems to l»e calculated may then be funded or
ultimately withdrawn and cancelled. This, of course, a J
on the basis of peace.
According to a statement recently made, the interna
revenue for the year ending the 80th of June. Ifc66, will
be two liurdrvd millions, but under the ne v system of
internal taxation which went into operation on the 1st o
April, it is estimated that it will amount to at least three
hundred millions. The estimate is further made that
this sum, added to the revenue from customs and the sub
scriptions to the new series of the seven thirties will give
to the government seven hundred millions within the year.
This is on the supposition that only one half the six hun
dred million loan be taken. Should it all be negotiated .the
amount which the government would receive daring the
year would be one thousand millions. It is to be hoped
that no such sum may be necessary but to whatever
extent borrowing bas to be dona, the nearer the currency
in the meantime comes to the gold standard, the more
nearly will the sum borrowed stand as a representative
of gold values and to the advantage of the government
I ana people generally. It is held in some quarters that
tt is only by adhering to the pol'cy from this time forth
of stesd ly reducing the legal tender issues, by setting
aside one-fonrth or more of the internal revenue rece pts
therefor, as fr»st as received, that the actual golJ
s'andsrd can be speedily reached—even when o*a-e
I ,hall have come.
