zation Of the country
Ur,n'oRs. SOLDIERS AND SAILORS,
National Republican tx, Committee,
4i6 l4th 81, Washington, Oct 10, 1865
Comrades: You met the enemy in
Maine and Vermont and struck him a
telling blow Again in Ohio, Pennsylva'
MIA, Indiana and Nebraska, after an un'
precedented struggle, victory inclines IN
your favor Rest upon your laurelS'
Your work is not completed until the last
ycstage of treason and secession is tramp
led ont, Dismaycd, demoralized and
broken, the enemy waits but your eager
advance all along the line to surrender al
discretion. On your success now depends
the future standing Of the loyal veteran
soldiers and sailors; Of the widows and
orphans Of your dead comrades Bold
riders Of Sheridan. Wilson, Fitzpatrick
and Pleasanton, your old commanders
summon you again TO the charge, Veto
rams OF the Tennessee, the Cumberland, the
| Potomac, the james, the Gulf and tn,
Z trans.Mi Mississippi gallant tars who sailed
under Footc, Porter, Dahlgren and Far
ragut, repeat your victories. Let no va.
cant place be found in your ranks on
the third Of November. The war record
of the Democracy clings TO it like the
shirt of Ncssus il must be its shroud.
But seventeen days for earnest, effective
work remain. Relax not your efforts and
never again shall the hated flag of trea'
son, secession and national dishonor con-
front you. Dress your lines advance
your colors let the bugles sound the
charge Push things Anovcrwhelm'

sentci. We do not know that the Dem
ocrats entertain any strong hopes of gain
ing members Of Congress in any OF the
northern States yet To vote. Illinois,
Iowa, Massachusetts. New Jersey, and
Wisconsin are reasonably sure To send us
strong Republican delegations as in 1866,
and any loss in either of them will be
more than made up by our hoped-for gains
in California, Connecticut, Kentucky, and
New York 1t is possible that the Repub-
licans may lose one or two members in
Missouri, probably one in Maryland, and
the defeat of Mr.. Donelly in Missouri by
another Republican OF Democrat is ex-
pected by some. 1t is too early yet to
speculate upon the probabilities in the
Southern States, but it is clear that Gen
Grant will be supported by Congress
scarcely less strong than that which ha,
held Mr.. johnson in check. 1t is TO b,
sure, unnecessary that the party should b
strong, but it is not an event over whicl
we are disposed to mourn.
