FoR THE KENosHA TELEGRAPH
Eds TELEGRAPH.-Itis gratifying.t to lover
of the Union, to see the onward progress Of
events, that tend to develop the martial spirit
of our Government, and her brave soldiers, Yet
must confess that I am disguised as often as
take up some public journals, by their gross
Misrepresentation and foul lies. | see in such
papers as the Chicago Times, that the present
war is called an abolition raid, and that the alb
olit,onists are as much responsible for the war,
and Us guilty Of treason as the damnable rene
gades Of the C. a I would like to know
who the Chicago Times calls abolidonistsG 1t
uses the term as applying to the present admin
istration, aud the party that represent it. Its
vituperative examinations on the character OF
Sec. Seward are but the maniac rawlings of q Sc
cessionist demon.
Why is it that four ffths of all the so called
democratic papers are finding fault with the
government from the President down to the
lowest official? Why is it that they are pick
ing at every imaginable fault, and surrounding
the same with dark mystery to mislead their
readers, aud harden their minds wit h grievaR-
ces that never were? Why is it, ifthey ar
the friends of the Government, that they are
venting their sickly spleen in abuse of the same?
Why is It, that they indulge in such invecCives
against this unjust and uuholy war 2" Why
is it that they are forever harping about tara
ton. aud the ruinaton of the country? Why
is 1t that they are petting the poor rebel
prisoners, and at the same time inquire of them
with knowing wink, about Vallandigham
& Co. My opinion is that nine tenths of the
editors of democratic journals, are Knights of
the Golden Circle, and derive their principle
support from reasonable sources They, and
their constituents have a deep laid plot. Their
policy is to ruin the political reputation OF the
| present administration party; and by their
| sympathies with the rebellion, they hope as
soon as it is crushed, to cOnciIiate their dear
brethren South, and unite with them in build
ing up mongrel democratic party, and thus
regain their lost power. They are exceeding ly
sore upon the subject which is the direct cause
| of all the evils that are now upon US. Slavery
ssthat twin relic of barbarism, must not be in
| terfered with Foster and nourish 1T Let the
| by dra headed monster reign supreme. 1t may
| furnish political stock for another rebellion.
These miserable sneaking demagogu es watch
/ ing Win VuibuIe oyer "iV ieduI W Rooulc up
the Offal of secession, and receive back into
their arms those rebelious leaders, reeking with
the miasma of rotten principles, and polluted
with the stain Of treason as dark as midnight
Why is it that the political aspect of some cit
les and states have changed within the last six
months? The secession journals tell us the
cause is the corruption Of the abolition party
| the administration party.
Why don't they tell the truth and say of all
the seven hundred thousand men in the field
six seventies are ofthe republican party. No
slavehodng, officiating, doughfaced democrat
has gone TO the war, unless he had high office,
and could pick the "loaves and fishes" These
you may know by their oficiousness in hunt
| ing up fleeing, painting contrabands, and return
| ing them to their dikloyal masters. They were
only fit for this dirty work and they went where
the could do the most of it. I am a lover of
my country hold inviolate her sacred ami
immortal principles OF freedom, justice and
truth | hate political demagogues, lying edi
tors and secessionists. VIGILANCE.
