"The nation aOas bankrupt to- day. Treasury

''Savery was one of those things which be

Emil Rothe, delegate from Jefferson coun-
ty, and two years ago the candidate for
Secretary of State on the Copperhead ticket
moved three cheers for Gen. Hobart the

an The State Senate, Sept Is, 1862. "..E
S. A. PEAsE, of the Marquette Egp res,
was a delegate. Here is one extract, among
many of similar spirit that might be made
from his paper:
"To submit is to them the rebels destruction

political rights, their landed Interests, and Their

Judge J. G. MALLORY, of Milwaukee,
was prominent man ia the Convention.
Here is a single extract from one of his
speeches during the war: 81
4 ~ am now ready to say that this war, as nov
prosecuted on the negro basis, ought to be stoppe1
and cennot be stopped moment too so0nt'' :
JudgeJ. G Mallory an the Democratic stat
Convention Feb. 25 1868, npOn resolution de.
ciarqag that The Union could nor be maintained
By force of arms. and that armiSttce Sh0Gld
be Immediately declared 49,.
We haven't room to day for any further
"allusions to the past" In the extracts Civ.
en- above, however, can be found fair and
truthful exhibition of the spirit which, dur.
ing the war; animated nineteen twentieths
Of the Convention which has presented Gen
HOBART as candidate for Governor. That
same spirit still survives, If southern indie.
Ipendence is no longer deemed practicable,
there is yet an opportunity for political
strategy and chicanery to labor for such a
settlement of the questions growing out Of
the war as will substantially blight the le
gitimate and wholesome fruits of national
victory For this end the men of the North
who opposed the Union cause during the
war; can still work, can borrow the gart
and assume the language Of patriotism, and
place upon their ticket officers who fought
in the Union army, side by side with cop
perhesds who staid at home and openly la
nentedwhen they heard of Union vi ctories
