Ever the characteristic manners of cowardice.

Ever the characteristic manners of cowardice.

God bless the Union; - it is dearer to us for the blood of brave men which has been shed in its defence.

And what I should do, by the grace of God, I will do.

A great character, founded on the living rock of principle is, in fact, not a solitary phenomenon, to be at once perceived, limited, and described. It is a dispensation of Providence, designed to have not merely an immediate, but a continuous, progressive, and never-ending agency. It survives the man who possessed it; survives his age,--and perhaps, his country, his language.

Freedom may come quickly in robes of peace or after ages of conflict and war, but come it will, and abide it will, so long as the principles by which it was acquired are held sacred.

The heart of the People, North and South, is for the Union.
