some balderdash about "peace." Lovejoy
madea Characteristic reply to the latter, say
ing: "There is no peace, saith my God, to
"tle wicked no peace to rebels and traitors
"but gibbets md gunpowder to the erd"
John Hickman spoke vigorously to the same
effect.
Recent speeches and votes disclose the fact
that there are but five enemies to the Govern
mt Mt in the House, and seven or eight in the
Senate. They make themselves conspicuous on
all occasions, and seem to glory In their base
sirgularity.

Two Ohio and two Kentucky regiments

importance Of this movement cannot be
cyercstimated.
