To the Soldiers Of Irish Liberty:
CorNTRYNES AND FRIENDS: The procla-
nation Of President Roberts jus, issued calls
upon you to stand firm by the cause; that
our movements will advance under these cir
cumstances, and the faith that Congress will
in very few days. either repeal the neutral
ity laws or to extend TO US belligerent rights
in the name Of Ireland, we beg of You to do
your duty. Let no Fenian SO disgrace himself
as to accept the ignominious offer Of the Gov
ernmen for transportation. Never, Irshmen,
torswear your right as a citizen. or your de
voiion to the cause for which you have sacri.
feed so much and for which you are ready to
die. Such conduct would be unworthy of
your manhood and race. BE patient, glo
rious future awaits you, and ere long orders
to march will gladden. your hearts.
Therefore stand firm; don't allow the in
trigues of officers who are in pay Of the
british to cause you to swerye from the only
paths Of duty and honor; await the orders of
your military officers; conduct your
selves as you have in the past wnile
here, and the citizens of thus city will not
neglect you.
