II the deFll were eandlidte against HIM ,Y d" I!
been forced ani compelled to deuounce him as tra-
tor aud have good right to do TO-DAY. l have
heard from his lips in the halls Of Congress before
he thought Of a candidate words of trea-
AMI dislovaty. He ha~ denounced this var from
the time it commenced He has never voted solitA-
~ dollar, in favor of prosecuting this
matter how the money was to he expended
whether for grub for the soldiers anything else not
one dollar has he voted that could be spent in way
against tae rebellion and in favor Of tie t'verum .Ht
defy his friends TO-DAY, to point IN - "na line or
syllable written uttered by him in favor of
restoring Government hy pdttuE down the rebel
lion not a word But If you will read his speeches.
you viii md that lac has justified secession. You
viii hnl that he has advocated State rights. AMI sand
that he believed the people OF the ~oath had right TO
s.cete. and tat the t'aFernmtnt iad no right t. Co
erce them back into tie Mon h2t Is the doctrine
he has advocated, and upon tnat record people ask me
to vote tor him. Again, defy any man To show me-
his letter accepting his nomination the Chicago
platform. Where : t2 Wv is il ta; can
ma It. lie has never accepted taat nomination eN-
ccpt by simple ac4gesence AMI by his being put on
the ticket. ny l. TINS say : because the thIcaso
Convention knew when they adopted that platform
thar Mcclellan would write soft letter sort Of fpr
war. saying that he knew the Convention for the
war, but they forgot to say and all that kind OF
thing. Laughter. They have prevented George
IT, Pendletou from writing letter, and venture TO
that he will never write one. Because If taey
wanted letter from him. unless they It them
solves, he has been much IN the habit OF speaking
treason thai he could not write anything II
Uolii damn Llm before tie country, AMI they knew
it.
