The Cadiz Democratic sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 1854-1864, 1863-09-23
The preSfdemsa rassifyer.

We have waited until now for some an.
swer or palliation on behalf Of the President
for the falsehood or eeuivccation which is
fastened upon him in the correspondence
with Mr.. Wood. No answer or excnse has
been afforded. The Times (his New York
organ) waded through two columns on Sun,
day last in its erdeaVors to show the ssgaci-
ty OF Mr.. Lincoln in declining Mr.. Woods
propositions, but not one word was offered in
extenuation Of the deliberate ialsebood con
tanned in the Springfield letter, to the effect
that no propositions looking to peace from
the South had been received by him.
The truth cannot be disguised that Mr.
Lincolo uttered deliberate falsehood in bis
Springfield letter. He could not have for
gotten his correspondence with Mr.. Wood,
and relying upon the latter's privacy, ven>
tured TO declare what he supposed would not
be contradicted. But the answer came, i'm
mediate and overwhelming, and we now see
the desperate straits to which he has been
reduc, d, without defender for his want oi
veracity-N. Y. Mems.
