what's a Copperhead !

The Copperhead glories in being afraid. He
haunts his CoWardicG and imbecility under the
nose of the whole civilized world. He con.
fesses with pride that the Shareholders have
beaten him and cowGd him. He acknowledges
that IL Is pure fear which makes him give them
all they ask, and glories In 1t. He tells you
with chuckle what Davis wants, and what
Lee will have, and what Beauregard wont 70
without; and calls on his neighbors and friends
with all the smiling zeal of London tunkey
sent down stairs for his masters boots, to hand
II over Immediately. He will parade his shame
on platforms every night In the week, and call
II wisdom, and invoke the Divine blessings on
II. When you talk TO him OF selfTespect, he
hears you with the air Of a Turk listening to q
disquisition on hGbcdS corpus.
He glories in having no country, except II
be the little community called a State which,
however, he passes most of his timo in abusing
depreciating and comparing dsadvantageously y
with South Carolina or Mississippi. He be
longs TO no order or race oI men. He gathers
To himself the base and degraded OF every breed
or country, and Is never so much at home as
amid the ignorant and degraded portion of tue
foreign Immigrants. 1t Is his special delight
that he has no nag. Ho abhors the stars and
stripes, and Is always delighted when II Is dis
honored or humiliated; the Confederate flag he
rather admires, and ID proud Of but IL does not
belong to him. He has one quality In common
with the negro, one which more than aught

unfortunate TaceI 1t 10 impossible to insult him
or rouse in him any feeling OF resentment.

brother who has been engaged In defending the

menced, aud after exhausted my own funds,

bers Of Congress, and no one has beon moro
ready and willing TO respond 10 the call than
Hon. Reuben L. Fenton, Of New York.
A poor soldiers widow, and his wife and
children, from the State Of Now York, are often
found here with no means to get homo; and l
consider II q disgrace to the state TO see them
around Washington begging for bread; and
when have used all other means, have gone
to Mr.. Fenton, and havo never applied In
vain. He has often told me that whom
needed funds for this or hospital purposes 10
call on him; and have often thought he was
too liberal for his owu good.
1t has given me as well as many others of his
numerous friends here, great satisfaction u
learn that he has been nominated for Governor
Of the State Of New York, and wish thus pub
llcly to give my testimony for him.
! would also say to the soldiers In the hos
pltals In and around Washington and In tn,
army that wish they would bear this In mind
and give Col. Fenton and Lincoln and johnson
at least so 900 majority In the State OF New
York at tue November election.

Tho GIFTED States General Convention Of
Untyersalists, at its session In Concord, N. H.,
September 2lst, 1854, unanimously adopted
the following resolutions;
Whereas the fsarful war with which our
nation has been scourged for years still con

courage, eoergy, patience and faith. Therefore,
Rssolvsd, That We recoEBize In 1t the punish.

between our professions Of love for liberty and
the support ofsHvery.

Under which King, Bezonisp :

Let US ask any candid man to show how
Mcclellan and Pendleton can, with any honesty
and fairness, be placed before the people as
candidates on the same party ticket, protesting
as they do principles so dlametrlcally opposite
TO each other. We have proven Pendleton's
reasonable position by citations from his own
speeches, wherein he openly advocated the re-
cognitlon Of the rebel confederacy and peace
on any terms, however humiliating, rather than
to have war.
Gen. Mcclellan, on the other hand, in his
letter accepting the nomination, makes plat
form for himself, which his friends claim TO be
In favor OF the restoration Of the Union as q
sine qua non. Now, one of these must repre-
sent the party. Either Pendleton has no busl-
ness on the ticket, holding such sentiments as
he does, or else Mcclellan is deceiying his
party aud is trying TO humbug the people also.
Pendleton's treason does not rest on any
isolated passage In any of his speeches. II
tincturos his entire political course since the
war began. 1t enters into every speech, vote,
and public act of his. He Is Nallandlgham's Is
very echo. Now the public can tell for itself
| how nearly the position of Vallandigham agrees
with that of Mcclellan. The latter has taken
much pains to preserve an appearance of pa
triotic devotion to the Union and of opposition
| to tho rebellion. He has tried to Keep up
| reputation for being In favor OF enforcing obe-
dcnce to the Constitution and the governmental
authority, and he found the Chicago platform
SO utterly opposed to this that he deemed II
necessary to make platform for himself in
his letter accepting the nomination.
Pondlcton, however, is In hearty sympathy
with the Chicago platform, for he was one OF
Its prime movers. Which of tho two mon
represents fairly the present position of tho
Democratic partyi Both cannot. One must
be dcceiving the public. II surely cannot be
Pcndleton who Is opposed to the party, ior he
has written no letter and made no speech since
his nomination. He was In tho Convention,
helped to make the platform, agreed TO II
heartily, and the party as there represented
unanimously agreed with him.
There ls but ono alternative, then. McClel.
Ian knows that such is the true state of the
case, and by his letter Of acceptance he is try
ing to hoodwink the people by setting up a
sort of war platform as his own. We have
heretofore shown that the declarations in that
letter are delusive, and we now repeat that the
letter has no other purpose than to cheat the
people by an appearance OF patriotic devotion
