HE VINDICATES HIS CONDUCT AS SECRETARY OF WAR. Stands Up to tlie Contraband Doctrine, The Belgian Mnskcfs—Anns Contracts—Horse Trades —Transportation Accounts. FINAL SLAP AT “THE COH EITTEE.” Before Ms departure for Europe, to enter upon Ms new duties, Mr. Cameron accepted a banquet at Harrisburg, Pa., and made the only formal defence of himself aa Secretary of War that has yet appeared. The Mayor presided, and gave the following toast; Sihon Camebon—A Pennsylvanian who has never forgotten Ms native State—an American who has always been faithful to his country and his countrymen. His fellow citizens delight to honor him. The enthusiastic applause with which this sentiment was greeted having somewhat sub sided, Gen. Cameron addressed the company, and having spoken of his early life in Harris burg, he proceeded to the greater question of his public lUe. He said: In responding to the sentiment of onr worthy Mayor, my intention, gentlemen, was simply to speak to you familiarly as friends and neigh bors, without referring to my control of the ■War Department, over which I had the honor to preside, but in view of the charge recently made against me because ot my exercise of the delegated power with which! was intruat- Ed, it may be proper for me to say to you a few words in relation thereto. 1 took a seat last year io Mr. Lincoln’s Cabinet against my own judgment, without consuniag my tiistc for the position, and, I may say, against my own determination. I resigned that post, when I thought my mission was ended in organizing, equipping, and supplying, under the most adverse circumstances, a larg er ai my than had ever becu raised lu the same space of time at any period of Unman history. When I did accept the place it was with the peril ctunce Btan between Mr. Lincoln and myself that whenever I thought proper to resign I should be privileged to do so; and when a vacancy occurred in the appoint ment to Ku6sia,hc offeredmu the post,and I was glad to accept it, "Why, gentlemen, I toiled in that Department as no man ever toiled be fore : I have told you that in my younger years I worked for twenty hours out of the twenty-four for successive months; but that labor was nothing In comparison with the •verpowering toil wMch I underwent at Wash ington. To say nothing of the extraordinary necessities of the Department arising from an unforeseen and threatening nutinrjii emergen cy, the doors of my private dwelling.were be sieged from daylight to the latest hours of the night; The Department was surrounded on all hands and at ail hours. Certain members of Congress, who figure in the vote of censure, were ever besieging my doors, and often pa tiently waiting for hours to catch a part of the drippibgs&om the "War Department.. Mean while, 1 managed the delicate and trying affairs of my situation as well as I knew how. Of conrte I committed some errors, but I did not commit the wrong with which I am charged in the resolution of Congress. I solemnly assert that neither in motive nor deed can i I be justly chargeable with the commis sion of any wrong in the administra tion of those affairs, and I am proud to say here, in reviewing my official conduct, that I see no act which I would not repeat under the same circumstances. Upon my appointment to the position, I found the department desti tute of all the means of defence; without | gune, and with little prospect of purchasing j the maiaid of war; I found the nation with out an army, and I fouud scarcely a man throughout the whole War Department in whom I could put my trust The Adjutant General deserted. The Quartermaster Gener al ran off. The Commissary General was up on his death bed. More than half the clerks ■ft ere disloyal. I remember that upon one oc casion Gcu. Scott came to me, apparently in great menial tribulation. Said he, “I have BjHmt the most miserable day of my life; a friend of my boyhood has just told'me I am disgracing myself by staying here and serving this fragment of the Government, in place of going to Virginia and serving under the ban ner of my native Stale; and I am pained to death. ” But the old hero was patriotic, loy al, and wise enough to say that his friend was wrong; and he was right in remaining where he was. It should be remembered, also, that in these days ot peril and alarm, an outcry weut up from all portions of the loyal States, urging the Government to procure arms, equip ments, and*- supplies, by any means, and at any cost; to disregard the usual routine of contracts; to cut through i “red tape,” and at the hazard of encounter ing peculators, to prepare it scll to meet the Immediate dangers. Groat as w»-re the exertions then made, they fell far ebon of the'Ocruauds of the people. The Ad ministration wag at that time censured for its caution in guarding itself against imposition, because such caution was considered as an evidence of delay. But to procecdl Tou aB remember, gentle men, Ihe day erf the President’s proclamation calling upon the people ot Pennsylvania (be cause the demand was made upon you here, in common with other States) for troops to de fend the National Capital, ily son happening to be in Washington,! gent him hither with the utmost dispatch, and twked him to appeal to every man he met In this town, and through the country, to send down every soldier who would come. With in three days alter the issuing of tho proclamation, 480 troops from Pennsyl vania arrived la Washington. They were the first to.inspire the. Government with hope and courage to contend with the awful crisis then impending.' They came there without anus, ana were famished from tho arsenal at that place. Directly after this, within two or three days, three or four regiments were m ecmblcd at Cockeysville, Maryland, by my order. At the same time a number of bridges on the Philadelphia and Baltimore Railroad, via, Wilmington, were burned or destroyed. It was at tbis time that the mob in Baltimore murdered our unarmed soldiers In her streets on their way to the defense of the Capitol, and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad refused to carry our troops. At that time, when the loyally of nearly all of the inhabitants was doubted, Mr. Seward, the Secretary of State, in company with the Secretary of the Treasury called upon me and said, “We must have somebody in New York to assist the public officers there in collecting and forwarding troops, 1 ’ asking me to name any individual whom I considered competentjfor that purpose Xwaa acquainted with but a few people in New York, but hfler a moment's reflection I recollected Mr. Cummings, with whom I had an intimacy when bo was a citizen In this Slate. The two gentlemen then informed me that, they had appointed Mr. Cisco of the Bub-Treasury, Gen. Dlx, now in the army, Mr. Opdyke’ the present Mayor of the city ol New York,, and Mr. Blatchford, acitczen of Now York, and as I have stated, requested me to name some other gentleman. I gave the name of Mr. Cummings and associated with it that of Gov. Morgan of the State of Now Yok. To thow how guarded I was in these appointments, I will rend the order that I gave upon that occasion: “ Department of Wac, April 53,1861, “ In consideration of the extraordinary emergen cies which demand immediate and decisive meas ures for the preservation of the National Govern ment, I hereo •• authorize Edwin D. Morgan, Gov ernor of the State of New York, to make aH neces sary arrangements for the transport lou of troops and monitions of war in aid and assistance of the officers of the army of the United btales, until eommnnicaliou by mail and telegraph is complete ly rc-i aiablisbed between the cities of Washington and Hew York. Either of them. Incase of inabil ity to consult with the other, may exercise the au thority- hereby given. “ SIMOH CAMEBOH, Sec'y of War. It will be Been that I did not Intrust those gentlemen with the expenditure of any money. I was careful to give them no authority to act independent of the military offleeraof the Got* orameot. Sometime afterward, I received a telegram signed by Messrs, Morgan and Cummings, asking foe authority to draw money, which' I referred, in the usual manner, to the Treasury Department, That is all I had to do with the matter; and at the end of four teen days, communication having been restor ed, I revoked their authority, as will be seen by the following note: ** War Depabtxznt, Mar 7,1361 “Obntlsxxm: The extraordinary, emergency which demanded immediate and decisive measures for the preservation of the National Capital and the detente of tho National Government. rendered It utceeeary for this Department to adopt extra ordli arj mean* for that purpose, sod having ftil confidence In your Intelligence, experience and In tegrity, >on were authorised to make all necessary arrangements fur the tr asportation of troops, £c., in aid snd assistance ot officers of the Army ■ of the United States, until the re-establishment of ccmtunaicatioD. by mails and telegraph, between the riritF of New York and Wa-hington. * Uninterrupted communication between the two cities being now again established, andit be ing desirable that 'he duties heretofore attended tobyjon should bo hereafter performed by the officers of the army, to whom they properly be long.

The allegation has been repeatedly it- rebel army; tut, Lad I the leaders, 1 would crated that I made these contracts with an eye do utl them as I said I would do with to personal preference. Bat-1 have already the Mayor of Baltimore, when h« asked the prevtn, gentlemen, that the farthest limit ot President to send back the National troops even my official action in the ma.ter was sun- from Cockcysville, and not allow them to pass ply to order the making of such contracts as through Baltimore. I said, “ Let me alone, were necessary, leaving all that regarded price aEd I will hang him and his whole posse upon or quality in the hands of the Ordnance De- the trees around the War Department.” Had partment; and to this day I scarcely know j been allowed to do so, our troops would any of the individuals with whom contracts : never have been impeded in their march The special contract exciting public atten- | rebellion would now have been crushed. Such tlon was made with a party by the name of are my opmionson that question, which, per- Boker. On the sth of September, under cover baps, I sometimes express unwisely for my Irom the President, I received a note, which I qwr good; and this is another reason for the now read; passage of the resolution to which I have al ; inded. Every Border State Representative ' who thinks his brother, or son, or kindred in the rebel ranks does not deserve hanging for his treason, voted in lavor of that resolution. [After a short pause, General Cameron con cluded as follows:} Gentlemen, this is a contest in Which we all have a direct interest. Pennsylvania has a mo ral power which no other State in this Union possesses, and therefore every citizen of Penn sylvania can do a great deal toward bringing this war to an end. I have no right to give advice, but I shall be glad, in leaving the coun try, to believe there is to be no ’p&rty here but the party of the country, the party lor the war and in favor of supporting the Administration in conducting the war, because, whether men were opposed to Mr. Lincoln or otherwise, by his Administration alone is the war to be con ducted. If Pennsjlvania will stand bv his wise and patriotic measures, she can aid the Presi dent, and control the result. I remember that In the war of 1812 every man who opposed the war was considered an enemy of bis country. I trust that the same beneficial rale will be ap plied in the present case. [Applause.] If we falter in patriotic devotion. The people of the South will be encouraged to persevere in their rebellions and infamous design; for the war can only be ceded by a determined and united policy here in the North. Why, it was only the other day that a letter was seen from the wife of the traitor Davis, stating that “ Jeffi was cruelly deceived in Pennsylvania and New York, where he expected the support of half the people, because he wasled to believe more thair one half of the people in both of those States were going to join him.” That is the current delusion"in the South; and ao long as we give them aid and comfort by divisions among ourselves, just so long will they be en couraged to fight the Government. Let us all, with one heart, looking solely to but one ob ject, go through this war; and that being over we can rake up the old political carcasses of days gone by, and again attack each other with ail the spirit of Whig and Democratic futy. Iu the first place kt vs finish the. «w. [Long continued applause.] Short aa the interval is before my departure,! confidently expect to be able to carry with me the news of further vital successes, which will prove to the pow ers of Europe that the Union is safe, and that the day of the redemption of the nation is drawing nigh, and is even now at band. “pVAsnnffiTOK, Sept, 4, 1531. il Hon. Simon Cameron, Secretary of War. “Slit: Our resident partner in Europe advises us by last steamer of a lot of upward of 1(10,000 stand of arms—rilled, percussion muskets—new, cud in good condition—having been placed in his control by making advances thereon. ** We desire to oiler them to vonr Department, and should it appear to von of sufficient impor tance to secure the Immediate delivery there or so large a quantity of good arms, we would invite your attention thereto. “ We offer the arms at a price not exceeding £lB each, subject to the inspection and approvalof an armorer whom you shall select to accum- pany onr authorized agent. If the article is not salitfactory, the Government will Incur no ex pense, and if approved, you will secure an article much needed. “We also control, by advances thereon, 18,000 cavalry sabers which we offer as above at a price not to exceed $7.50 apiece. Very repecifully,your obd'taerv’ta. Hebilin Bokeb & Co. , No. 50 Cliff-st. “ Also of Liege, Solinger, Ecmecherd, Birming ham Brown.” This was at the time when the Queen’s pro clamation bad prohibited, among other things, the exportation of arms to the United States. Yon remember, gentlemen, we sent an agent (Mr. Schuyler of New York) ont to Belgium to procure arms for onr Government. He succeeded in purchasing 100,000 guns there, but being unable to ship them all directly, he sent a portion to England, where (the proc lamation to which I just referred being soon after issued) he was prevented from transport ing or using the arms in any manner. In this extremity, of the large army of soldiers in and about Washington not two hundred thou sand of them were armed. Upon the letter I have just read was the indorsement of the President, In his own hand writing, in these words; “I approve the carrying this through carefully, cautiously and expeditiously. Avoid conflicts and interference A. Lincoln.” —the literal meaning of the indorsement was that the world should not know of our mili tary deficiency and weakness until the evil had been remedied, and tnat care and caution were to be used as heretofore in keeping inviolate the secret of our defeat. Fully coinciding with the President, and in obedience to his order, I promptly directed this contract to be closed; and I assure you, gentlemen* without the arms it produced, wc should not have been able to achieve the late glorious victories In the West. I may add, in proof of the great anxiety of all to obtain arms, that bnt a very few days before ! left the War Department, the Cabi net agreed to adopt a conditional contnct made by Mr. Schuyler for 100,000 gnus in Bel gium, which I successfully opposed, on the ground that wo had guns enough contracted lor, and with the encouragement which had been afforded to onr own manufacturers, the supply would probably be sufficient for our future wants. By this means $1,800,000 have been retained in the country to be expended in those localities from which onr soldiers have volunteered, and this occurred after all those contracts bad been completed of which so much complaint is now made. The Investigating Committee of Congress have said that tbc muskets made at the Spring field armory cost only £l2 apiece. Tnat as sertion, like many others that have been made in connection with supplies for the army, is not the fact. Without taking into considera tion the expense of superintendence, the cost of buildings, machinery or capital invested, the mere net cost of the gun for Libor and ma- ! ttrial when there is no competition in time of i peace, has amounted to $12.60. But had those j guns purchased ou my order proved to bd twice more expensive than they actually wore, then, in view of the fact that the army was j-racliejdly useless without them, I would hare done exactly as I did with the beef contract to which other gentlemen have seen fit to refer. When we expected large arrivals of soldiers from Pennsylvania and other States, and there was nothing to feed them with, the Acting j Commissary General came to me and paid. u T J can now buy 2,000 beeves U I pay 2 or 3 cents } a pound more than they should be worth.”* I “Well,” I replied, “ pay it [applause], pay a dollar per pound rathor.than a soldier should euCt r, hut be guarded that your contract erases when a supply can he had at the custo mary' price”—which was done. Ho made a contract ‘for two thousand beeves, and the whole world rang with the announcement that tl«e Secretary of War had cheated the Govern ment is. order to enrich some favorite, and yet the contract was made with my personal ene mies. 80, again, I was censured at the timeof the battle ofßull Bun for not having sufficient cavalry In the field. Yet I could not sneak in my own defense, for the safety of the Govern ment compelled mo to secresy. Plenty of horsemen offered their services, but I had no Fields, swords, or carbines, to give thousand did cot want the world to know that such was our condition. My function was to raise an army of the largest kind in the shortest possi ble time, and to supply them with whatever needful material I could first lay ha««ta upon. As soon as 1 could obtain pistols, carbines, swoids, and holsters, I had cavalry enough. Lul then the cry was “ he his got too many.” Of course, then again I the Govern wait, by giving my friends all the horse con-, tracts. [Laughter.] "Well, Mr. Mayor, the horses have been in the service, and tne coun try has been saved. Those who then cried “no more horses,” tc-day can see advertisements for the purchase of an increasednumber; dud to-day I saw also a published'advertisement asking for proposals to famish more muskets. Had the material resources of the Govern ment been, in any manner, commensurate with the emergency, the war would have been terminated ere this. So far as concerns my self, I would rather have had a million of gnus ; too many than that a single soldier in any of our battles should have been sacrificed for the want of a weapon. X suppose that had I [ been the willing tool of every maa who wanted to rob the Government, and if in place of at tending to my duties, I had been content to receive men at my house and treat them to the hospitalities of my social and political posi tion. or allowed them to control me in the discharge of my .duties, those men who now aUempt to slander mo would still be most profuse in compliment and profession. More than this, bad I remained in the War Deport ment until this vote came off, I should doubt less have received the compliment paid to my late and esteemed colleague, Mr. Welles. [Laughter.] He was charged, with having im properlyemployed a man to purchase snips; .yet the Moose of Representatives voted down a reeoWtion to censure him by about the same vote that they censured mo forhavipg secured . the services of an employee. Mr. Welles ob 'tained the assistance referred to long after the excitement and confusion attending the com mencement ol the rebellion bad ceased. I did so at a time when the country was almost to tally bereft, of a Government, and when wo did not know whom to trust. ■ Now, gentlemen, I could narrate to you In this way many Incidents of official connection with the 'WarDepartment. Were it necessary I would give yon some particulars connected with the history of this man Dawes, who ap pears to bo most active in the persecution against me. . I understand he is a little prose cuting uttomey, living somewhere in Massa chusetts. lam well aware of the real cause of bis enmity, and I will briefly scale it* Some people of Massachusetts, especially about the good city of Boston, owu nearly ah the stock Inrbc Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad. Notwithstandlcg that road has accumulated more money on account of this war, by the transportation of troops and war material for the Government than it ever did before fat double the length, of time (which fact was chiefly owing to the confidence I entertained in its President); yet ihtr managmentof the road were displeased because- they coaid not have an entire monopoly of the Goveromeut’s business.. When the bridge's on the Wilming ton and Baltimore road were burned, It "be came absolutely necessary to construct a new lin eof travel to Washington, By my direction thcPrealdcnt of thePeonaylvama Rail road, Mr. Thompson, In connection with the Wilming ton Hoad .made arrangements to run a line of boat* from PerrjrUle to Annapolis, and suc ceeded in getting the project-into successful operation.. This new route was used until the Baltimore and Ohio road was taken possession or hr me for the Government, and until the bridees-of the Wilmington road were rebuilt. In the meantime an arrangement was made with the Harrisburg, Beading and New Jersey road? to reduce the fare from $6 to 84 from Now York tb Baltimore, per soldier. But my : action in this matter took money out of the purses of gentlemen in Boston, and Mr. Dawes, who appeared to represent the interests af fected, became my enemy. This is the only : reason for bis opposition ot which I am aware. I do not know him further than that he was fr* qnently hanging about the War Department i is common with other applicants for special i favors. Having my whale time occupied la Jin-pa rteg an army out.of rawand undlsclp-. iced soldiers, of course linayuave run coun ter to the desires of such gentlemen, and con sequently they now return the disfavor. This theme is by ho means * pleasant one for me; but after the recent wrong which has . been done.‘me I felt that - when talking to my ) ;oW friends* find neighbors 1 would do myself the simple justice.to Bpeak-pUlnlj* - It would ibe needWs for me to attempt to convince you - iofmy honesty of purpose and Intention in ; every official act of mv life. lam known-"to iyonyiersohaliy, and I feel WflUng toabide by :qtd-.wlllfully■ .appreciate jour decision upon r mj character as you r feUow-citlsen,, [Qreftfc’ .applause.] " n. r. iron aim Steel.
