seymour-BenedIet Arnold.

The New Y ork Commonwealth has
discovered, shrewdly, striking SINH
larity between the arraignment of the
action Of Congress in the Revolution,
by Benedict Arnold, and that of A bra
ham Lincoln BY HOratio Seymour, in
his Milwaukee speech Of 1864. After
Arnold's treason had become patent
with the founders of the Government
by his desertiOn to the British, he
issued q Proclamation to the Citi
zens and Soldiers of the United
States, in which he thus assailed the
action of our Government:
Y on are promised liberty by the
leaders of your affairs, but is there an
individual In the enjoyment Of it, saw.
ing your oppressOrs? Who among you
dare 10 speak or write what he thinks
against the tyranny which has robbed
you of your property, imprisous your
sons, drags you to the field of battle,
and is daily deluging your country
with blood?
Y 'ur country once was happy,and
had the proffered peace been en-
braced, the last two years of misery
had been spent in peace and plenty,

Americans in the attainment of peace,

objects in taking the field.
Nv hat is America but a land of
widows, orphans and beggars? But
what need of argument to such as
feel infinitely more misery than
tongue can express? | give my prom

who are disposed to join me In meas
ures necessary to close the scene of
our aftiictiOns, which must increase
until we are satisfied with the liberal
ity Of the mother country, which still
offers US protection and exemption
from all taxes but such as we think
tt to impose upon ourselves.
BENEDICT ARNOLD.
October 20th, 1880"
A careful reading of this document
win show that it would make first
rate modern Democratic platform.
Indeed, so striking is the similarity,
that We place the views of Horatio
Seymour, as enunciated at Milwaukee,
alongside extracts from the proclama
ton Of the arch traitor of the Revo-
luton, that our readers may see that
we correctly represent the case:

games played between ten able contestants for

greeted with loud applause as he advanced To receive
his prize. Tho proceedings having thus been
