crowned with d glorious victory,
and the line Of march to q final con-
quest of the enemy is straight for
ward, with a steady, unainehing
tramp, tramp, tramp, and a solid
charge upon the enemy's works Oh
the Sd ofNOyember, and the already
shattered hosts of opposition TO
the,cause Of Republican liberty and
Union are forevorcrushed out.
To our Republican friends, and
the friends of Republican liberty,
we say, Stand firmly to your posts
until tue final battle is fought and
gallantly won, as it will surely be
on the Sd proximo, if every man
does his duty to bis God, bis country
and himself, Let every friend Of
peace and unity in the government
resolve that we win .R5ht II out on
the line that led us to victory on
the 18th inst, and with Grant and
Colfax at the head Of the grand old
Union column, we are as certain Of
victory as was our gallant leader,
when, after gaining the victory at
the battle Of the Wilderness, he saw
the way open tothe capture Of Lees
army at Richmond. Move steadily
forward, and our triumph Is as GER
tain as was bis on that memorable
occasion When youobtain an adj
vantage of an enemy in'an engage
inent, be sure to maintain every
inch yob have gained, and press
forward with renewed energy and
| vigor. i Let there be no relaxation
in the ranks until the final battle il
fought, and the victory nobly AM!
gallaptly won, Let every man do

b nv The election Of Lincoln, in
1860, foreboded the overthrow Of
the Constitution, and the dissold-
ton of the Union, and civil war; all
of which was realized. The election
of Grantdh 1858, ifitis allowable
to suppose that such d curse can, be
inflicted upon the American people,
