"THOSE DEVOTED COPPERHEADS."
"Our sympathies are all confined at home; yet it is just
possible we may help those devoted Copperheads in the only
way we know how—also, that they, on their side, are now
about ripe to aid us in the only way we could accept their
aid. If our troops should this summer appear within their
borders anywhere between Cairo and Philadelphia, they would
be hailed as friends by a population pretty well cured now of
Pluribus Unum. Their cry would be, not Union, but deli-
verance. Wait then, and watch, and keep your lights burning,
ye Knights of the Golden Circle!"—Richmond Enquirer, 18th
May, 1863.
