written in the pinched aud starved face of
the orphan it is visible in the deprecated
currency Of our country; we have no need
to pay s2 per hundred for that.
Whils, you are publishing those docu
ments, could you not print few hundred
thousand Of Wade and Davis protest
against Linco.n's usurpations? Publish
also few thousand Of McClellan's report
the people will buy them. Publish also
few hundred thousand on the suspension
of the Writ of Habess Corpus, they will
60 eff like bot cskes. Publish also few
million copies Of Washington's Farewell
address, the people wan. something of
that kind. A few million copies Of the
amount Of the national debt, and how it
is to be paid, would be acceptable. Tell
us also how many whi.4 men have been
sacrificed to free one negro. Such reading
as this would enligh,en the people, and if
you don't publish them Democrats will,
and the people in retaliation will elect
Mcclellan A few thousand copies Of the
life of Fremont, is needed just nov.
The Harkeyc asks the question "Whas
do the copperheads mean BY the slang of
"A free ballot or a free fight p" We can
answer him by saying We mean exactly
what we say. We mean TO vote at the
Presidential election and If We arc disturb
ed BY the presence of Lincoln bayonets
we intenl'to have fight. We mean if
the voters are driven from the polls, or the
name OF our candidates are stricken from
tho poll books b. military power Us they
were ia Kentucky and Delcware, that
those selected by such arbitrary means
shall no. enter upon the discharge of the
duties Of the office toawhieh by fraud and
violence they we're elected--we mean to
say in that case, having been deprived of
1free ballot we will have free fight. We
mean to say when the scenes enacted in
Kentucky by order Of the military autho'
.rity IRE attempted to be re.enacted here
tha. the fight begins. Does the editor OF
the Hauksye understand what we mean
