seems to have been devoted to encouraging the

pg If the reader will turn to the Record,
he will find that the speech from which the
quotation was made, was delivered on Decem4
Der Is, 1859, long before the commencement
of the war, and that it had reference to the
John Brown Raid, and nothing else This
was the crusade, the invasion, the arson, the
insurrection, the murder, which Mr.. Vallan-
digham characterized in fitting terms-such
as became patriot and Christian-such as all
felt and expressed who were not brutes or
scoundrels. 5'a s=" asa 90 nm
What do the people think of men who, with
the date of the speech before them, and the
occasion on which it was made, carefully spec
flied, will yet assert that it had reference to
the war and to the soldiers engaged in the war
The man-we care not who he is, or where
he may be-who will commit a forgery and
falsehood such as this, is an ingram villain,
not to be trusted in any relation, deserving
nothing but execration and contempt.-Logan
