Title: Peace & disunion! What is mean by an immediate cessation of hostilities? ... In short, it means dismemberment of the Union! What is meant by a convention of the states? It means that we shall beg the South to grant us a treaty of peace, the first condition of which they have proclaimed to be the recognition of their independence. It means that we shall surrender to them half the territory of the Union, and hold the rest on such terms as they shall dictate. What is meant by a separation of the Union? It means two or more military nations involved in perpetual war with each other. ... Citizens, reflect that this is what you vote for if you vote the Democratic ticket
