s<s- buchanan was powerless il the
hands OF the pro slavery chiefs and trail
tors who composed his Cabinet, and con
lrolled Congress, and filed the Govern
ment Offices. Davis and Toombs and
Floyd and Cobb and Wise and the other
slave propagandis,s ruled Buchanan and
moulded the policy of his administration.
So, if the loyalty of Mcclellan were
pure as that of Washington, yet Seymour
and Wood and Vallandigham and voor-
hies and Pierce and Richardson and the
iesserC Copperhead satellites who have been
spoutiug treason duriog the war, would
come in with his success, and fll the ua.
tional otiices, compose his Cabinet, be.
come his advisers, aud Copperhesd coun-
sells would prevail in the Administration.
and the treason and overthrow Of the
Government plotted and commenced By
the Democracy under Buchanan would be
