' Yes, indeed, it is true. Who are they ??

The real traitors who are responsible for the disiiiption of the American Union and the present civil war, are Win. II. Seward, Alio Lincoln, Hannibal I lain I in, Charles : Sumner, Henry Wilson, John F. Hale. <fcc. Tliev have accomplished the disastrous result hy preaching abolitionism, denouncing union with slaveholders, and oll'.-ring in Congress petitions for the dissolution of the Union. If there nre any persons in this country who deserve the doom of traitors, they are these authors of our national calamities. And if this war continues three year-, tiiey will ho obliged to llee their country or receive a traitor's fate. They I.i4vs.* misled and deceived the people to the ruin of tlie country. And when the reaction takes place, as it surely will, popular vengeance will ceek them for punishment When disaster and suffering pervade the North, as they certainly vv ill ; when the people cry out under the burden of taxes and debt which this war will force upon them, I then will coiuu the day of reckoning for the j real traitors?the political demagogues ? ! who are the authors of the nation's calamines. Hence their superhuman etforts to crush the South before the reaction takes place, llut, they rnnnot evade their accountability to God and the people.
