CoHRADEs: The din Of battle has ceased,
but the conflict Of ideas still eontinues. The
shock Of arms ended with the surrender at
AppomAttoz Court House, but the struggle
Of principles still goes on. Had Abtaham
Lincoln lived, doubtless onr labOrs and tolls,
ere this, would have been over and past.
But the bullet that carried Andrew John.

been an eye-sore and offence. 10 every loyal

shameful course as q party throughout the
war, now again confronts the country with 4

insult TO every living soldier, a mockery 70
