''Tic President and the other members Of tho

Tie Atlas and Argus is oIe OF that very
emnll class Of miserable newspapers who still
defend treason in the North. They do aot
openly avow their real feelings, but go as near
present Laws upon The sutjs:t of sedition will
permit While protesting to eervs the Demo
cratic patty, they Geek to rcpress the patriotic
enthusia. N Of tEe people, to denounce the
P.eei5.nt ard bis Cabinet, to sne:r at cvsry
