on oooasion of the celebration of Washing
toms birthday IN New York City. John
il still In favor of vigorous prosecution
of the war, and in his bold advocacy OF
the war policy he puts to shame the pu-
sillAnimous and craven advocates Of peace
in Iowa and other States Of the North
west. 1t is indeed a burning shame that
our miserable sympathizers by their cow
ardly begging for peace and an armistice
AT the hands of traitors in arms, have
brought reproach upon such States as
Iowa, Illiaois and Indiana, whose gallant
soldiers had earned an imperishable fame
for these States on the battle fields of the
South.
How are the peace Democracy Of the
Northwest who propose to embarraas the
Government, and to resist the draft, to
manage now that the Democracy of New
York have come out SO boldly for the war?
In the meatime the thing to be done is
to put down this war, and organized re-
sistance in the South. This Is serious
matter. In will be determined in the
next Twelve months whether We are to
live ~ confederate government, or
whether We are to cease TO exist. Those
who talk to you about dividing this Union

the South go-those who tell you to leave
New England out in the cold, those who
tell you to let the Northwest unite with
tho 6outh, and those who tell You that
New York can set up for herself, give to
you LESSONS that would be for the total
destruction of this government. IF We
are to exist among the family Of nations,
We ara to exist as the United States Of
America, or to be the contempt OF the

fore the FIRE. Thus the exterior will have

and ro:s the stitching and leather; but
the resin gives it an antiseptic quality,
