the rank and file are suppressed by officers in
tho army, aud we hereby declare that we arc able
and do now make u full and free expression Of
our sentiments.

and sacred honor we recognize no other Govern
mcnt and desire no other, aud regard MS treason
any effort To destroy it from the so-salod Peace
Party" of tho North

wherever it appears and we earnestly call tho
attention of tho Government to these yilo traitors,
c. l.. Vallandigham, of Ohio, and the whole tribe
Of Iutternuts in the entire North.
4. We hail with joy the late order Of General
Rosecrans sonding all traitors in midst beyond
our lines, believing that armed foes in front are
preferable to pretended friends in our rear, and we
recommend its enforcement throughout the entire
North.
5. That we iudorse the proclamation of the
President believing, il fully sustained, it will tend
to the extinction of slavery and to the establish
ment OF our Government upon tho principles of
justice, without which we can never have permn-
ment peace.

gr0ss, known ~ the CWnhscation and Enrolment
bills, wise and patriotic measures, calculated to
fill up the ranks of the army, punish the traitors,
and tighten the burdens of taxation upon the loyal
Z. That we rejoice ut the recent uprising of the
loyal people Of the North we thank them for their
sympathy and support, and we will assure them
that we are not wenry in well doing, and will take
care of the armed rebels in font il they will, as
believe they can, dispose of the traitors in Our
rear.
x. Wo are glad to more stringent measures
/ adopted by our Government for the return of de
serters and we urge every loyal citizen to aid tho
authorities in their efforts to return these men to
their respective commands and furthermore, we
request every loyal woman to treat the dcscrer like
the porjured criminal he is
.. That we assure our friends at homo that we
have no sympathy for traitors, either North or
South, and that We do not sanction the course Of
some Of OhiOS would-bc great men, ia trying 20
