The Radical press and their stump
ers are trying hard to make the people
and Particular the soldiers believe that
Andrew Johnson has turned traitor,
we woui ask what he turned traitor
to2 BIC eimple truth is that he has
been true to the platform upon which
he was elected and that no has refused
to be seduced from his allegiance to
the Constitution of his country. Surely
the soldiers and people of this enligh-
tened country have not forgotten the
anathemas and cry raised against
President Lincoln on the reconstruc-
ton policy put forth by Lincoln, which
was more merciful to the rebels than
the policy advocated by President
Johnson. So far did the Radicals 90
in the matter, as to threaten impcach-
ment against Lincoln. These same
men, Thaddeus Stevens, Summer a. Co.,
met in Cleveland and but Fremont and
and Cochran in the field as candidates
for President and Vice President, on
the same platform now cOnteuded for
by the same party-in opposition to
my policy as they call it. Did the
Union or Republican party indorsc
these proceedings them No, they
met in Convention and nominated hin
coin and johnson on the opposite poll
cy, upon the policy enumerated by Pres
ident Lincoln.
Lincoln and Johnson were electedL
but these same ultrists hung to the
skirts of the Union Republican party
and came into power. As soon as they
come into power they renewed the
fight-against Lincoln = and subse-
quently against Johnson. AT first they
did not succeed very well. The lead.
ing papers of the Republican party
were against them, and some of them
even denounced Thad. Stevens and
Sumner as fanatics and impracticables

to denounce their hypocrisy and. self
ishness. lie has been speaking, bed
ding and eating with Brownlo'y, Jack
Hamilton, IIunnIcutt and the others,
attended their secret conferences, and
was in their confidence. He says their
secret designs startled and Disguised
him. Their main object he declares to
what money they can while the present
excitement lasts. In order to success
fully carry out this game, they are
ready to make their speeches TO suit
the locality and thcr audience. Negro
suflrage~and equality will be advocated
where Radicalism is rampant, and not
mentioned where the doctrine is to be
kept in the back ground until after the
election.
In their meetings among themselves,
they make no secret Of their determi-
nation, after the fall elections, to incitc
negro instruction. They must have
immediate negro suffrage or negro in
surrcction. In their conversations,
they say this is a good way to get a
living to-day. When the elections arc
over, something new mu9t bo started,
and their only hope is ID d ntgro in
surrection. That will bring on anoth-
war, in which they expect The Southern
people will be annihilnted
The discovery OF those designs, Mr..
Norton says, detcrmined him to leave
their company. II did not need this
exposure by Mr.. Norton, of the de-
signs of these torch d-turpentine in
cendiares toward the South. All that
a person need do, 10 discover what
their aim is, to read the speeches of
