Northern and Southern
Traitors.

What is the difference between Southern
rebel and a Northern copperheat.? There ID
no man North or South but what acknowl-
edges that the South seeded for slarery and
arc fighting for slavery. The Alministra-
traton of Abraham Lincoln proposes to
knock out the foundation Of rebellion-to
kill rebellion by killing its acknowled sed
cause-to overthrow the system of slavery
and make the slave serve tor IKE Union in-
stead Of against it and for this the copper
head condemns Abraham Lincoln. The trail
tor at the South is fighting to establish a
slave power and to overthrow this govern
ment. The traitor at the North refuses to
fight and refuses to support the government
because it proposes to destroy the slave pow
err. The South raises armies with the hope
Of getting possession Of our Capital and con-
quering the North. The copperhead asks
that the Union army be called home and
that nothing be left to oppose the destruet-
ion of the country. While the South is
forcing every man into the service against
US. The Northern copperhead is calling
upon the President to dcsist from drafting
recruits for our army, and upon conscripts
to resist the draft.
The copperheads in their State and county
conventions have boldly denounced the war,
waged by our loyal citizens as "uaholy, un.
Just and lcllish." They have nominated as
candidates for State, county and town officers
only men who would avow themselves as op.
posed to this war and in favor of peace on
Southern slavery terms. Then what is the
difference between southern rebel and a
Northern co7perhea4? They must both be
fought-the one on the field the other al the
ballot box.
