have paid SO little attention to the mighty
and terrible events of the past three years,
| as not to have become familiar with most
if not all the names which appear in the
above lists. Every reading man certainly
knows them all. He knows them and he
knows their antecedents, and the attitude
they have occupied toward the nation
during its fearful struggle against dissolu-
! ton and destruction. Arrayed on one
side, in support of Lincoln and Johnson
and the Union and the Constitution, we
behold long list of brave and noble gen.
erals, who through blood and fire have
borne the glorious and beloved flag of our
country to battle and to victory, and
planted it in triumph on the soil of every
rebellious State. We see the name of the
gallant Admiral before whose navy the
aeets and forts of rebeldom have sunk and
crumbled and surrendered. We behold
the names of veteran statesmen, whose
names will live in history as the most
earnest and powerful expounders of that
Democracy. the name of which is to-day
orostituted to the purposes of bloody
treason, but who have abandoned the pol
luted banner, and sinking the party name
are carrying out lis true principles under
the flag Of the Union party. Whom do
We behold arrayed in antagonism to these
great and patriotic men, and in favor of
Mcclellan and Pendleton, and "negotia-
ion with armed rebellion: Look at the
black and traitorous list. Two Express
idents of the United States One of
them. Franklin Pierce, stands recorded on
the roll of infamy in his oVn handwriting!
His infamous letter to Jefferson Davis

ne doubling. Passing his abhorred name,
we come to that of James Buchanan, who
if the curses of twenty million patriots,
reiterated daily for four long years, could
lffect an immortal soul, would be to-day
leeper in hell than a quartz stanper could
iall in a century. He it was who, with
full and direct notice of the coming armed
attempt TO overthrow the Government, de-
voted the last six months Of his admins
.ration to the armIng and titting-out of
that rebellion. Like Cain, from the CORY
pool in which he left his slaughtered
brother, the hoary wretch fed for season
from the oceans of blood of his murdered
countrymen fearing (ths co'cardty in'6e-

would be allowed to cut the bloody thread
Of his traitor life. No fear of that! As
in the terrible justice of the ancient law
which inflicted no punishment on the par

and loathing himself, so will the life of
James Buchanan be heightened out that

until loathing life and fearing death, he
shall at last lie down and die, cursing and
accursed. Fit men these, Franklin Pierce
and James Buchanan, TO stand forth as
bright particular stars in such galaxy of
traitors as compose the list Of those we
have named as the supporters of this
" Peace" party of the North, with Geo.
