nd by the side of liberty, or by the side of oppression. The government of the Union had long been very lenient and discreet, but it had exhausted its patience. Patience had ceased to be a virtue. There was no question now whether war or no war; war had been wantonly and deliberately forced upon us, and they (the Germans) were ready for war. Mr. Wesendonck created coniderable enthusiasm among the thousands of Germans present. After he had finished his speech in English, he continued in German, and remarked:--It has often been asked why we make war against the South? War cannot last forever, and the South can be exterminated, but not subjugated. But this is not the question; we have to punish rebellion, and the victory will be on the side of the North. To be sure, the North was very slow; the South had had six months for preparation; they have taken a firm position; have armed themselves with all implements of modern warfare, and have the advantage of time. Mr. Lincoln has bee
apparently unconnected with any one in particular until you shook them, and then the subtle magnetic thrill told that there were bold hearts beating at the end. This continued until night closed, and, indeed, until after midnight. Within the cars the sight was strange. A thousand young men, the flower of the North, in whose welfare a million of friends and relatives were interested, were rushing along to conjectured hostilities with the same smiling faces that they would wear going to a German party in Fifth-avenue. It was more like a festivity than a march. Those fine old songs, the chorusses of which were familiar to all, were sung with sweet voice. We were assured many times, in melodious accents, that the whiskey bottle was empty on the shelf, and several individuals of that prominent, but not respectable class known as bummers, were invited to meet us on Canaan's happy shore. The brave old Harvard song of Upi dee was started, and, shameful to say, Mr. Longfellow's Excelsi

Doc. 248.-the Twentieth Regiment, N. Y. S. V. United Turner Rifles. departure from New York, June 13. The Turners constitute a great social, educational, musical, gymnastic, and semi-military popular society, to which every German, of whatever rank, so he be of good moral character, is expected to belong. The brotherhood affords so many cheap advantages that it is almost universal among the Germans; and in virtue of this fact, the 20th Regiment leaves with as many warm wishes for fortune and success from as numerous a circle of devoted friends as the Firemen's Regiment itself, and owing to the nature and manner of its organization, will live in the hearts of the brothers and sisters of the Bund, and be watched in its future movements, perhaps, more closely than any other of our volunteers. The regiment is not only thoroughly equipped and sworn for the war, but every man is perfectly and completely drilled in the manual and manoeuvres of the soldier, as well as ready and anxi
