men on the left Of the train 10 cedar thicket

the captain, and giving orders 10 the men who
were just beginning TO skirmish with the enemy,

We read in Scripture that God will shake
terribly the heavens and the earth, and all that
cannot be shaken shall remain. No man OF q
sincere Christian faith will at this time forsake
his country and go over to its avowed enemies.
The Democratic party is to-day what the Hart
ford Convention was 10 the last war with Great
Britain, and will go down to pOsterity with the
odiun attached TO il. The Democratic p-rty
has. for the last twenty years, been welded
soul and bOdy--.o Southern slavery. In that
party were fouAd the leaders Of the rebellion
Ia that party were found the Knights Of the
Golden Circle. In that party we're found the
eppressors Of the African race. both North
and South; and in that party also are DOW
found all the rebel sympathizsrs Of the land -
The loyal have no controversy with those that
love slavery better than their country. Argu-
ments before them would be like pearls before
swine. Our only hope is in the Republican
principle. Every Democratic triumph ia hailed
with greater joy by the rebels Than by the
Democrats themselves, while its only effect her,
Is to divide and distract the country and pro
tract the war;"
