Of the intriguss Of the conservatives, and
copperheads, and rebel sympathizers
generally, TO preventive government from
carrying out It's policy for 3 vigorous
prosecution Of the war, for making
treason odious and furnishing traitors"
It assures the country that the determine
ton 90 happily expressed by Mr.. Beeeher,
At Exeter Hall, "frm and immOyabls.
deep 90 the sex, high as the mountains,
but calm as the heavens above us, 10
fght this war through at all hazards
and At every eos'," shall not be frustra-
ted by the ignOble policy of the weak
and vscillating, or the treacbery and
e1Wardice Of cunning, smOoth-tongued
traitors, who seek TO accomplish by. in
direction what they dare not openly
profess and advocate. True men every
where win rejoice. The nation will
take no step backward, but move on

land:
A glorious victory, under the providence
of God, has crowned our arms. In pro-
ducing this great result, your yalor has
been most signally displayed.
Ordered on Monday afternoon to make
q reconnaissance of the enemy's position,
you converted q reconnaissance into q
substantial attack, most calamity carry
ting . position strong by nature and in
trenched. But your browning glory was
achieved on Wednesday afternoon. You
were ordered to carry the line of in
trenchments at the foot of Missionary
Ridge for the purpose of making diver
sion in favor of our troops engaged on the
left. This you did, but you were not
content to stop at the base of the Ridge.
Your enthusiasm bore you on in splendid
style, carrying the rihe-pits which
crowned the summit-capturing many
pieces of artillery, small arms, and pris-
Oners. The enemy began to retire in
disorder.
Your achievement in carrying the rug
gee, fortified heights of Missionary Ridge,
displayed gallAntry and steadiness un-
der fire and produced results unpAral-
leled in the annals of warfare.
Your conduct was witnessed by many
officers distinguished ON other battle
fields. Their admiration and spprecia-
ton of your services are unbounded.
return you my heartfelt thsnks.
