Democrats Of the army against the copper
heads who fight agains, nothing but their own
government, has already produced rich fruits.
The reasonable scheme Of Peace Conven-
tion at Louisvllc, Kentucky, to be composed
Of such delegates from Northern States as
will meet delegations from the rebel States,
was originated by the copperhead', and at
one time seemed TO be in a fair way for adop-
tion. The Legislature Of Kentucky did adopt
it, and did the Illinois House; but the IL
inois Senate thanks to two loyal Democrats
defeated it; it as also failed in the Indiana
Legislature; and finally the Kentucky Legisla-
ture has rescinded its resolution have no
doubt that the credit for this check to North
ern treason is mainly due to the loyal Demo
Gratis in the army and one evidence Of this
