1691 - L. Aug. 15; ed:2/2 - It is evident that the "Copperheads" have
exulted in the distraction of the Union party due to the "protest" writ-
ten by Senator Wade and Henry Winter Davis. It is reported that they
will use it as a campaign document which will be a good weapon unless
Unionists waive criticism, and unite upon the man who can give victory
to the Union.
"The first duty of every loyal man is to sustain the Government
in crushirg the rebellion, and establishing Liberty and Union through-
out our whole domain.
If defeat and betrayal of a great cause are to be the consequence
of manifestos and protests, we cannot understand how it is consistent
with the duty of loyal men and that of keeping the Government in loyal
hands, to inflame prejudices and passions of the people and thus lose
the very cause to be gained." (8)
