There is earnest work yet to be done;
every citizen who values good govern
ment should gird on bis armor for the
conflicts yet before him. The eremy is
vigilant, desperate, determined if posi-
Bile to break through the lines of public
virtue. and carry the fortress by storm.
Our whole line should be strengthened!
every point should be guarded: clear
heads and brave hearts should be active
everywhere. To fail in our defence of
the grand old party of progress, would
be to betray civil and religious liberty
into the hands of our enemies. Let the
puIpits speak, let the press thunder forth
its warnings, let patriotism be aroused
as never before, for the hordes of igno-
rance and vice are pressing forward to
conquer and destroy. All intelligent
men must unite to beat back the van
dals and preserve the Government in
all of its original purity.
