o,d;nation to their common opposition TO the So
allied Republican party, and to stand ready tor a
sheerful and cordial Union, and hearty co-opera-
on whenever it shall be necessary. to prevent the
.nccess, or the ascendepcy Of that most perncious

Soary efforts, and eyincing extraordinary deter
mnation to grasp the powers of the Federal Gov
srnment and when Republican Governor is
shielding an escaped Harp Ferry murderer,
,,Ser ansey technicalities from arrest and deliv-
.ry under our just demand, it is particularly in

both adj antage and encouragement to those who
are plotting our ruin.

no sympathy with such aims and such teachings,
hut true and loyal TO the Commonwealth, are rea-
DIV to unite heart and hand for her defence, wheth
or In council or in camn.
