amazingly well.
What is this theytel us about truce of sixty
DAYS? Can it be that our statesmen arc still to
be led by the nose, by the abolition foxes, the
traitorous, villainous Seward and his fellow
workers of iniquity? | am greatly afraid that
they have been frightened little by the conse-
quenccs of their late wicked plotting, and are
now more anxious to retrieve the ground which
they have lost than to give us fair and hon
orabIc peace.
