comrades q he tehfed Getd : Tho.
leaders OF the Republican party have
undertaken to arrogale to themselves
the absurd claim, ana are acting upon
tho assumption that they represent
the party, or that portion oil the North
ern people that dld all the hghtlng
during the war OF the rebellion that
kepuohcans alone illlod the ranks oil
the Union army, led them to battle,
conquered the South, and freed the
negro Now, comrades, reference
TO the Army Register discloses the
fact that out OF tho seventy MAJOR
Generals at the commencement OF the
war, fiily'tivo were pronounced Dem
ocratic, and of the rank and file, New
York sent more troops into the field OF
native people than any State IN the
Union. Whereas, Massachusetts,, the
strongest Republican State IN the
North, sent fewer OF her own popula'
tion, native or foreign, into the war,
than any state IN the Unloni butirom
tho proceeds Of government contracts
her people were enabled to hire Cana
dian substitutes TO fill her quota, most
of whom deserted before they reached
the army, and LETT our own population
to do the fighting.
In the carly part OF the war the vol
unteer regiments from most OF the
States were largely Democratic. Then
the war was supported and carried on
by the union sentiment Of the whole
country irrespective ofparty, but party
lines soon began to be drawn by those
who had control oi the National and
State Governments, and preterments
and promotions were conferred upon
those, and those only who were will
ing TO shout: "Down with all that is
Democratic, and TO appease tho cleo
tion of Woodward and McClelland.
Loyalty TO The Government was now de-
fined as iealty to the Republican party,
