Pendleton, whose sympathies, speeches and votes
have, from the commencement of the rebellion,
been with the rebels, would take supreme command
of the government, army and navy. If true pa
triots can have any confidence in Mcclellan, they
can have none in him. The records of Congress
show that he has opposed every measure that has
there been introduced or advocated for putting
down the rebellion. In his speech, January 18th,
1861 he urged Congress if the seeded States could
not be persuaded to come back and be rcconccd to
the government to "lct them depart in peace; let
them establish their government and empire and
work out their destiny according TO the wisdom God

A. If we elect him, our present victorious generals
who have been leading our armies so successfully
against the rebels and driving them into their last
skulking places, will be at his mercy, under his
control, and will undoubtedly be superseded by
such MS he and his copperhead friends will prefer
The two generals now at the head of our armies
have demonstrated how unfit he was for the position
when he had it, and how unwisc it will be in us to
place him in a stii higher position.
3. If we elect him, we crafty the rebels in arms
ms we'll ms their Northern allies, and induce them to
continue the war, in hope of success under his adj
ministration
6. If we elect him. he is bound by the Chicago
Platform to grant the rebels an armistce, thus Civ
ing them what they so much nced-a chance to re-
cover from their defeat, and to strengthen their
works, and if "pcaco on any terms is not granted
them they will be better prepared to renew the
conflict. And this to be done at time when the
successes of our arms this summer and fall should
be followed up by vigorous efforts in the spring to
completely crush the rebellion, remove its cause,
and secure a permanent peace.
