We are one. We can never be two. we
0 one, or we are nothing. "United we stand,
vided we fall" We must bear and forbear,
,reive and be forgiven. The Northern cap

4 the North has need of us. AS the etf-
,ncy of an army depends upon the courage,
i'll, discipline and health of each regiment;
id, as each regiment or company will be bet
r trained and led to action by having its own
licers, so let each state in its own way secure
e greatest good to its own people, and the
,od of the whole Union will be promoted.
Patriotism is not universal philanthropy! nor
it universal selfishness. 1t does not make all
yhts State rights, nor confederate rights. 1t
les not make the nation all South, nor all
with. But it does make the States and Ter
Cries Of the Union, all one.
