The daily register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1863-1864, 1863-09-15
The Twins.

The careful reader of the Register must see
in its compilations of articles from papers
North and South-for we copy from all
sides-that the Secessionists, South, in or
der to keep up secession, and the Abolition
lists, North, in order to keep up Abolition,
resort to like species of tactics-unite arti
clss only to fit localities and prejudices.-I
The Richmond papers thus furnish exciting
material for the secession papers. Each
copies from the other, to fire the Northern
or the Southern heart. We sometimes
think, articles must be purposely written
North, to be printed South, or South, to be
printed North-in order to enrage both peo-
pie. Indeed, in this way principally, is the
faction of Secession kept up, South, and the
faction of Abolitionism, North.
There is striking instance of the sini-
larity of the productions of these twins, in
the articles written for the especial con-
sumption of the soldiers. The reader will
often see, in the Southern extracts we make,
how certain editors, South, use the South
ern soldier to frighten off, and to put down,
Union, or Peace Editors there, or a Re-
Union. or Peace feeling. Just as we are told
here, that the Ohio soldiers are Mortified by
VALLANDIGHAM and his peace ideas,-so
we see in the Southern Secession papers,
the North Carolina soldiers are Mortified by
the the peace meetings, and the rising peace
feeling in North Carolina. Gov VANCE, of
North Carolina, is set down as Southern
"Copperhead;" just as Gov. SEYMOUR, of
New York, is set down as Northern "Cop.
perhead." All peace men, South, are coop
perheads" there, just as all men friendly to
peace are "Uopperheads" in the North.
The following article from the Augusta
(Ga.) Constitutionalist, reads exactly like
great many Abolition editorials in the
North, charging only "HoLDEN," say, for
some Northern Conservative Editor, and
North Carolina, say, for New York or.
Ohio:
THE UNION MOVEMENT IN NORTH CAROLINA
BEWARE OF TRAITORS
From the Augusta Constitutionalist.i
Uader this head the Knoxville Chronicle
contains the following article. We com
mend its perusal to our readers now, for the
time may come when personally it may be
applied to some in our State, who like the
serpent, Holden, would involve Georgia in
a strife that cannot blu. end in their total
discontinue and disgrace:
"For some time pasG, We have noticed par
ticularly our North Carolina exchanges,
and more especially the discord and strife
which seems to be increasing in some Sec
tons of the State, caused by the proceed
ings and meetings gotten up by the editor
Of the Standard, published in Raleigh, the
capital of the State. These meetings, in our
estimation, are useless, uncalled for, hypo-
critical and diabolical, in their tendency to
the vital interest of our country's cause
The editor of this paper, VIM. H. Holden,
has been lever since the commencement of
our national dificulties) uo:ng all within
his power to create division of party feel
ing in the old North State. He is undoubt-
edly the leader of this party, and daily is
sues fuel to the flames of discord and strife. |
he is Northern man-at heart corrupt
Yankee, and yet he IS allo,ced n, or midst
to lead a growing party, and circulate poJo5y
which is eagerly grasped and pe,used By a..
armed foe and secret enemy.
Holden should be dealt Nth to the tu7t -
tent of the la10s Of our land. In our opinion,
his paper has already giuen cent to treason,
able sentiments sufficient to muzzle his press.
Unless he alters his political course, Justice
60 our cause will yet require such. 1t will !
be we'll for the whole country to under
stand this clearly. The Republican party
will not recede foot, will not yield a lot
of its principles, so long as we have such
men as Holden to contend with in our ,nidst
Holden and has party seem to be satisfied ,cith
the Constitution inst as II acaS up to the time
of the first bloto upon Fort Sumter They
speak to us in substance: eff you love and
want peace, strike hands with US under the
Federal flag; enjoy as we'll as you may all
your rights. and freely grant to us ours. -
Furthermore, this party becomes more
bold; it's days of infancy have passed, and it
again says, in substance: '1f YOU are not
satisfied with the rights you could enjoy
under the old Constitution, you do not de-
serve reace" The cry of this party is
peace, peace, and it is striving to bring it
about through the channel of Union meet
ings No one would have peace with more
pleasure than the writer, but it must be Sc
cured with honor to our arms. We must
be free, separate and independent people.
In accordance with the laws of our Consti-
tuition, we should frown Indignantly upon
all such conferences, compromises and plans
of adjustment as are presented by Holden
and his unprincipled party.
How very like corresponding articles in
the New York Tribune. Cincinnati Gazette,
or the other leading abolition journals, now
daily directed against the Democratic and
Conservative Press!
