| met not one man, woman or child
who was not resolved to perish rather
than yield TO the pressure OF arms, even
In the most desperate extremity" "And
t. they are better prepared, every
way, to make good their inexorable pur-
pose than at any other period since the
beginning of the struggle" =
Neither, however, let me add, did meet
any one, whatever his opinions or station
political or private, who did not declare
his readiness WHEN THE WAR SHALL
HAVE CEASED, AsD INVADING ARMIES BEEN

CHANGED. Vallandighom's Address.
Vallandigham says he has Travelled
over the Coniederacy--usine the term
'Confederacy' for do not acknow ledge
the existence OF any authority or govern
ment in America aside from that Of the
United Stltes)--and has not met man,
woman or child who docs not sustain the
war, and who is not determined to fight
il out to the death or the bitter end.
Vallandigham, here simply lies. lie
tells what is not tue, and he knows it,.
ValIandigham, aside from the leading
men-Jef. Davis, Toombs and Stevens
did not, venture to say, speak with a
dozen persons while taking his invOlun-
tary trip through Dixie. Had he done so,
his report would have be en- of different
color.-[ Speech Of Gen. John A. Logan,
an Illinois Democrat, who was opposed
to "coercion."
ut is for your Legislature to tell Lin
coin that he can have no more soldiers
for the prosecution of the war; Rep

"IIe did not believe one half the peo-
ple of the North cared whether JEFF,
Davis was at Washington, or Abe
Eincoln."- Attorney General Critch-
fields Speech.
"Tbere is not Democrat in the land
but will oppose this war with oil his
influence, as II is now to be carried on
under the Presidents Proclamation."-
Cincinnati Enquirer.
at has been proclaimed that il never
was the Confederates' intention u invade
the Northern States. YET IL THIS WAR
IS KEPT UP, BATTLES FOUGHT, NO RELEH-
TING SPIRIT, no PROSPECT OF PEACE, no
SOUND OF CONCORD To REACH THEIR EARS,
THEY OUGHT TO BE INDUCED
TO MAKE THIS lNVASl0N."--[Val-
landigham's Speech at Newark, New
Jersey.
If Vallandigham is elected Governor OF
Ohio " he will not commission another
officer of Ohio 20 prosecute this uncon-
stitutional war, nor will he suffer the
militia of that State, of whom he is Com
mander. in. Chief, TO be Dragged away
from the State without their and his
consent. If Lincoln acquiesces in this,
his war will be at an end; If he tries to
thwart it, he will have another sovereign
State to subjugate. e.--Rome (N.Y. Senti-
mel, peace Dcmocrat.)
He Is OUR STYLE OF MAs."-Chat-
tanooga Rebel.
." IfaDy one OF more Of the States of
this Union should at any time secede-ior
reasons of the sufiiciency and justice of
which, before God and the great tribunal
of history they alone may judge--much as
mOy deplore it never would,os Repre-
sentative in the Congress of the United
States, vote one dollar of money whereby
one drop of American blood should be shed
in civil war; Vallandigham at Cooper
Institute, Nov. ., 1860.
The following is passage from one
of Vallandigham's speeches: Then, sir,
am not Southern man, either,ulthough
in this unholy and unconstitutioal crusade
against The South, in the midst Of the
invasion, arson, insurrection and murder
to which she has been subject, and with
which she is still threatened, with the
torch Of the inccndiury and the dagger
of the assassin suspended over her-my
most cordial sympathics are wholly with
her."
o. And now,under a sense of respon-
sbilty moro weighty and enduring than
any which is merely official,I declute my
belief this hindrance of the military, in
GLIDING naming and MURDERS due to the
course in which Mr.. Vallandigham has
been engaged, in greater degree than
to ony other cause and is due to him
personally, in q greater degree than to
nny other one man. Presidents Reply to
