AT the wharf in front of the city, there are enough
arms, muskets and cannon to freight steamer. The
owners of these implements Of crime would employ

come agents of tyfants. Money is offered in yan and
the boxes of guns and munitions gathered by the ad
herents of him who pirates about peace lie exposed to
rains and trosts and to the depredatons of thieves
If Grant sought the countrys peace rather than the
promotion Of the selfish ends Of petty despots who rule
the South his soldiers would seize and destroy these
munitions of war. They should never be distributed
in the South The prosperity of this city and peace of
the whole country demandst their destruction. VIII

sble the eonsummation OF plans devised by advenur
ers in the South, who would precipitae another war;
