most encouraging. Our friends are active and |
vigilant--they are fighting with spirit wor-
thy of the cause. and a glorious victory a
waits them. We have received score of let
tiers in the lass few days, all breathing the
same spirit and bearing us the same glad IL
dings. God speed them! They need have
no fears of the South, the old Wing guard
stands as firm as the rock of Gibralter The !
wings of the south will give 5000 majority, the |
north will do the same, and in the east alrea- |
DIV the anti-hond banner is shvering in the
wind. We have beaten them down in their
strong hold, and by November they will not
have men enough left to tell the story of their
defeat.
Actionl Action! Action! is all that is ne
cessary TO secure US a victory unparalleled in
the history Of the State.
