Title: Philadelphia, April 15, 1861. To the president of the United States The unparalleled event of the past week has revealed to the citizens of the United States, beyond question or possibility of doubt, that a peaceful reconciliation under the form of our Constitution, is repelled and scorned, and that secession means, in the hearts of its supporters, both treason and war against our country and nation. We, therefore, the undersigned, loyal citizens of the United States and inhabitants of the city of Philadelphia, responding to the proclamation of the president of the United States, hereby declare our unalterable determination to sustain the government in its efforts to maintain the honor, the integrity and the existence of our national union

Title: What Jeff. Davis thinks of the war The main plank of the Chicago platform is that which pronounces the war a failure, and on that account demands that "immediate efforts be made for a cessation of hostilities." ... Now let us see what Jeff. Davis thinks on this point. He has recently been in Georgia making speeches on the aspect of public affairs, and especially on the progress of the war waged by the United States for the supression of the Rebellion. ... It is now perfectly evident that the best way--indeed the only way to end the war and restore peace--is by sustaining the government and pushing on the war. ... If you approve this, vote for Lincoln!
