constitutional government Of their country.

peace and how attained otherwise than by a
base surrender to armed rebellion, it does

save and reconstruct the union upon fair

an urgent letter to allow his name to

politicians wrote him on the subject.
Haskin sent him second letter, stron.
ger, if possible, in language than the
first one, beseeching him to be can
didate, and assuring him of the hearty
support of the New York and other
eastern delegates. Gen. Logan un-
