Let the blow, as II must be terrible, be
therefore quick, hard, decisive. Let there
be no halting at the capital; no hating at

halting at Montgomery longer than to hang
the traitors who have plotted treason there:
and no battling even at the EXTREMIST SOUTH
ern coast of the Union, until freedoms
troops shall have planted freedoms starry
Tag upon every battlement aud every fort
