VINO ARE FIGHTING OUR BATTLES
1t has been frequently asserted by Demo
cratic orators aud their press, that the men
who are fighting our battles are Democrats.
Since the draft in this State, however, they
are changing their tune, and now we are
given lengthy tables to prove that the great
majority of those drafted, are members Of
the copperhead party. The editor of the
Gazette, was invited and took seat on the
stand, aud admits that the draft was con-
Quoted properly, and the inference is, there
fore, fair that the great mass of the names
put in the wheel were democrats, because
hose already in the service were not subject
to be drafted The result is given by the
Delawarean, copperhead journal, as fol

claiming fercey, " am indebted TO you for

At this point the whistle of the locomotive

soon lost in the distance with the train. But
