The main dependence the only hope
Of the traitor slaveocracy, as declared by
their leaders and proclaimed by their
press, is outside aid. And they look for
that from the intervention of foreign
powers, and the success of the peace party
Of the North. And their chief depen-
dence abroad is the British government,
and at home in the North their hope il
in the vote of Irishmen, who constitute
the bone and sinew of the peace party.
Think of it. Irishmen, you are account.
ed by Southern traitors their best friends,
and it is to you they look to act in con.
cert with the British aristocracy, to over.
this great Republic, established by Wash
ingtou and his compatriots, which ha.
furnished you an asylum from British ty.
ranny, and equal rights under our free
republican institutions.
Should you succeed by your votes in
aiding the British to destroy our free
government, what justification can you
render for your conduct to your oppress'
ed brethren in Ireland, and to posterity
deprived forever, through your blind
completely with the British, Of the bene
fits and blessings Of this asylum of the
oppressed, this home Of the free, the hops
of the world, the Republic of Washing
ton and Jefferson.

EXECUTIVE MANSION,
Washington, May p, lse3.
Gen J. u. SchofeI.
DEAR SIE: Having removed Gen.
Curtis and assigned you to the com
nand OF the Department of Missouri, l
think it may be OF some advantage for
me to state 10 you why | did it. did
not relieve Gen Curtis because Of nav
full conviction that he had done wrong
by commission Or commission. / did il
because OF conviction in my mind
,ha. tie Union men Of Missouri. CON
stituting when united, vast majority of
the whole people, have entered into a
pes'ilent fac,ional qnarrei among them
selves General Curtis, perhaps not
Of choice being the head of ore faction
and Governor Gamble that of the
otter. After months labor to recon.
ellie the difficulty, it seemed to grow
worse and worse, until | felt it my duty
to break it up somehow and AS
could nei remove Gov. Gamble, | had
to remove Gen Curtis. Now that Won
are in the position, wish you to undo
no,hirg ,,serelv because Gen. Cnrtis
or Gov. Sansa.c. did it but TO exercise
your own Judgment and do right for
the public interest. Let your military
measures be strong enough to repel
the invaders and keep the ,eace, and
and not SO strong as to unnecessarily
harrass ard persecute the people. Il
is difficult role, and 50 much greater
will be the honor if you perform i, well
II both factions, or neither, shall abuse
You, you will probably be about right.
Beware Of being assailed by one and
praised by the other.
Yours, truly, A LINCOLN.
