After tho applansO;with which ho was wo! coined had subsided, tao Senator remarked that ho had uo intention of making a speech. Ile had tried to do so at Omaha, andas hothon broke down in tho midst of his remarks, ho did not feel oncouragod to repeat tho attempt on tho prosent occasion. Still, there wore ^BQgno thoughts which always suggested them selves in Kansas. Thcro tho great buttle be tween freedom and slavery hud boen fought out, and tho oause of liberty had triumphed. . If tho slave power had succeed there in its ^ . infamous efforts, it would have gonoonto na tionalizo tho accursed institution, but it was -.defeated, and now thcro was not a remnant of it left in tho land. [Applause] . ' 'Mr, Wade,then said that as hovhad,kept in . nd vance of tho poppte in the great 'strife bo tvr.coh freedom aud slavery, ho meant to du thc samo thing iii' thc contest willoh had just com menced for extending tho right of suffrago to women. . lie was -unqualifiedly in favor of equal rights for nil, not only without regard to nationality pud color, but without regard to sex. Wonicu wore moro virtuous thaw mon j their perceptions were quicker and .kecn . or} and When they gained political power they would rectify many abuses which luid thus far 'ireipainod Untouched. If ho ?iodipoj behoved .thj-t his own wife-hud sonso on^uglKto voto . ho novor would havo married, her [laughter nnd applause,] and if any of his hearers had wives, who wore unequal to tho discharge of tho right Of suffrago, bo would adviso thom-to go homo anti get divorced nt once. [Renewed laughter.] Tho'speaker denounced th?s'o wo mon who 'did not want to voto because it was not fashionable, and said that ho'had a prc 'diotfon td pinko- female s?firago will bo Ch oral in lesa.thau twontv ye?rs fu vo?tl?^'that's taO'fsr of?"*J,.ond h? thought it Uk?ly that in TT^Hteeateas ih?r JA?^?\^)t?:]^^'M^t\t? watter ' Btr?lght. [Applause.] Ilo repented that he '-intendedto keepin advance of tho people on this"subj?ot,' and that ho was now ready' to " * take another jump forward, if necessary. To bis view radicalism upon this and nil otlu.r questions was righteousness,,.whilo conserva tism- was hypocrisy and cowardice. Tho con . sorvative was a mere lick-spit t le and hanger-on ; ho was not only willing to bc trampled in tho dustj but wns willing tb remain there. ? As regarded thc political situation, lie would say-that the -Southerners now had the P^- mi?dost terms offorcd them they over would . '' ig^t. If they otioso tp accept them, well lind - good }/?thoy-.mi?ftLhavo all the advantage of such action ; '.ifi?jfflLrofuscd tljem another tum would bo givonUitlje screw, 'and they would bo compelled ii?, yield',whether tiny wished ?tooroot. Congress diad thus fur boen, with ^^^HHfe?ple, andit would ?Qt now desortHhem . "itndor.tlio lead of Johnson or the dovil. His ; hearers niighfrost assured of "one thillg, that ^construction was ns certain to take place ns *.~" inat,th;e ?un was Shining. , Se o a tor Wade th c u proceeded to say that tboro was another, question upon which he 'would express his views although his henrcrs . might differ from his opinions. Wo had dis fioscd of the question of slavory, and now lint of labor and capital must pass through the ordeal. Tho .shadow of tho approaching struggle bctwoen these two groat interests was 'already:up?n us, and it would do nq good to turo Our backs upon the'question.' It must bo mot. Propocty was not equally divided, and a-moro equal'distribution of capital must be wrought out. That Ooogross> which hud done so much fo-r the slave, cannot quietly regard tfio terrible distinction which exists between tho man that labors and him that does hot. [Applause.] " If you dull-bonds," . said tho speaker, " can't seo this, tho w?m?n will,"and will net' accordingly." It -will not bb long before tho laborers will .dejimtfd* of 'canvoscrs, upon tho ovo of an action, " What . ' will you do ipr us ?" and they wH?hirvett. sat . ' isfaotory answor. It is not right or just that any man should bo conipo}led to labor until - "'life is worn out and being is a curoe. The Almighty- did not intend that this should be tho caso, nor will it always remain so. Moro > leisure must bo given to pooplb for (ficntal ao fr:?onrnH?b'n^ent8, and labor-saving innchincs had'bot yet fulfilled their mission; sinco they had failed to effect ,this .result. Herein Kan 'aas^nffiPIn'Q spenucr, where ovcry mon Ja a cap italist to a^rcAtcr or less extent, these ine qualitlo? aro not so great, and ere not so keen ly felt os they^ro in tho Mast, and the speak . 'er would advise every men in that section, whe i issubject to a capitalist in nny degree, to cut loosofr?tn him and.gct two hours nearer sun . down forthwith. "Men of Kansas," liosaid, 'ff ijf you do as much for yourselves as thc Al >, mighty has done for you, you wi'l be tho.lords of creanon." Mr. Wade pledged himsolf to advocate the " natural rights of mau" boldly **iSnil persistently ;'spoke of. the groa* oom mer-' oi?l results which would inevitably flow from tjio completion pf tho Puoifio rnilwoy, and . thon referred to the striking fact that tho .ex . -cursion party hod, during tho two weeks of its tourneying, accomplish by rail a disto noe whtoh vould have taken a year io traverse by fh?*dl? modes of conveyance. Ho concluded . by thanking tho people of Lowrqn?ct for tho COVdtoJ welcome nnd kindly courtesies they , had extended to tho party ho represented".

The S?cr?ta ot the TioMgdry expressed his desire to do i ? he could, but ?\<\ not fool ut liberty lo make at .disbursements for objects not precisely wit in thc jurisdiction of lija department. It usual, I believe, when the appropriation f an object authorised by Congress is insu! oient to make, tho necessary expenditures ni trust to a " Deficiency Rill," but in thc e condon of those Acts this course will bc ii practicable, inasmuch as the principal d hurscincnts nrc for thc services of person's w depend upon their pay for support. 1 ho thc honor to suggest for your, considera tic and of your colleagues as well, that the inti oats pf thc publie, service require, without t lay, a further appropriation to executo t Acts of Congress. for tho government of t rcbclStatcs. . ..

"TIIE ?KURO.-Du Ofiail?u, says tha"'?Tew Yolk Kxpress," in his lccturo upon tlio Afri can, 'tn conclusion, gavn tho following ns his best judgment of tho ohnraoterof tho negro': Whntevormn'y ho our sympathy, primitivo mai, or rather tho least gifted tribes of man kind, must disappear before the higher intel lect. This is nota theory, buta fact. There* oro many causes to pcopunt for tho .decroaso' of tho negro \t think everything tonds to* show that Um negro is of great antiquity, and has remained stationary. Tho working of iron, considering thc primitivo way they work it nnd how. easily tho^ find it, musthnvo boen known to them from tho remotest time, and . to thom tho agc of stono nnd bronze must have been unknown. As to his future enpn I bilities,'! think oxtremo view? hnvo prevailed ' among us. Some hold thc opinion that tho negro will never riso higher than ho is; eth ers think" that he is capable of reaching the 1 iahest s tn tb of civilization, in fact that ho will become a white man. For my own pat t, ', T do not agree with cither of these opinions. 1 believe the negro may become a more useful I member of mankind than lie is at presonk; that be ean be raised toft higher standard, but ?hat, if left to himself, he wjll soon fall back into barbarism ; wo hiiv? no example to thc contrary. .Though a people m<\y bo taught the arts and sciences known by moro gifted nations, unless they hnvo thc power of progression io themselves, they must inevita bly relapse, in tho collive of time, into their former state. Of all thc uncivilized rnces of man, the negro has been found tho most do cile, and he possesses excellent qualities that compensate a great deal for his had ones. We ought) therefore, to be kind to him. and try ta elevate bini That ho will in tho cottrso of tin?<-, follow the lower races of mon and disappear, 1 have but little doubt.
