principles and energy OF the people of
the United States. The whole world
looks to us to omit nothing that will
bring about the complete triumph of
those principles and the complete vim
dlcation of the honor and sovereignty
OF our government. which have been so
grossly violated and invaded The re-
Spouse ought to be such as will put
America at the front of all civilized
peoples. Sincerely YOURS
