Further on be saws: After more then sew n
months of war. the enemy have not ONLY failed
10 extend their occupancy Of our soil, but new
States and Territories have been added to our
CSnfedsracy, while, instead Of their threatened
march Of unchecked conquest, they have been
driven at more than one point to assume the de.

en- them great advantages in the contest-a stem
which was not ONLY ,ustified by the necessity OF
self defence on the mart of the Confederate
States but also by a desire to aid the neonle Of
Kentucky. It was never intended by the Con
