aad manhood or hla owa Sea aad blood. Aaa ue
same is doee by aim who harbors aad eoaecals the de
serter. . For who caa reepset either the oae or the
other? What hoaest man will ever wish or permit hie
ewa brave sons er patriotic daughters, who bore their
parte with credit ia this-great etroggle for indepeod
eoee, te associate, area te the third aad fourth gea
rratioes, with the eila wretch who ikalked ia tbe
weeds, er the still iler coward who aided him, while
hie bleeding country was calling la vain for bis help T
Both are eaemies, sneaking, mean enemies U their
eoaatry, before whom ear opea foes will be Ufiaitely
preferred. Both are foes to their ova kindred aad
aobie eouatrymea who are electryylog the world by
their gallant deeds, and pouring oat thair blood apoa
the field of battle to protect those very men who ere
napping the vitals of oar strength. And woe aato
you, deserters, aad year, aiders aad abettors, whea
mim be'ji made aad independence secured, these
brare comrades whom ye have deserted ia the hoar of
their trial shall retura honored and triumphant to weir
homes! Ye that hide yoor gailty fce by day, and
prOwi like outlaws about by night, robbing the wife
aad mother, of your noble defenders of their little
means, while they are far away facing the enemy, do
vou think re can eacane a Jat aad damning vengeance
whea the day of reckoning comes? And ye that sheW
ter, eoneeat. aad feed thee miserable depredators aaa
stimulate them te their infernal deeds, thiak yoa that
ye will be spared ? Nj! rot aMurvd, frUetridg1 and
nerer failbg eyes hare marked jeu, enry one. And
when the. orerjoyed wife welcomes onee more ber
brare aad honorable husband to his home, and telle
him how )a tbe long years of his absence, ia the lonely
hoars of the night, you who had bee his comrades
radelv entered her house, robbed her sod her children
of thair bread aad heaped insult aad indignities
apoa her defenceless head, the wrath of that heroic
kaahand will make tou rerret in the bitterness of yonr
cowardlv terror that yea were ever born. Instead of
a few scattered militia, the land will be full of veteran
soldiers, before whose honest faces you will not have
eourap te raise your eyes from the earth. tf permit
ted to live ia the State at all, you will be inamout.
You will be hustled from tbe polls, kicked ia the streets,
aa honest jury will not beHeve yoa on oath aad honest
men everywhere will shua you as a pestilence,
for he who lacks courage and patriotism caa have no
ether good quality ,pr redeeming virtue. Tacgk
many of you rejected the pardon heretofore offered
you, and I am Dot authorised to promise it, yet I am
assured thst ao man will be shot who shall voluntarily
return to doty. This is th only, chance to redeem
yoarselves frun the disgrace and Ignominy which you
are incurring. . .. - .-.
Ag-iin our troops hare met the enemy and a great
aad glorious victory has been won. But several thou
eand of our soldiers fell achieving It for as. Every
man is needed to replace the gallant dead, aad preserve
aa unbroken front to oar still po werfol enemy. Unless
desertion is prevented our strength must depart from
'aur armies, aad desertion ean aever be stopped -while
either throagh a false aad mistaken sympathy or down
right disloyalty, they receive any countenance or pro
tection at home. . I therefore appeal te aU good citi
zen and true patriots ia tbe 8iate to assist my officers
ia arresting deserters, aad to frown dova all those who
aid and assist them. ; Place the bread apoa them aad
make them feel the scorn aad contempt of an outraged
people: Unless the good and the patriotio all ever
tbe land aria as oaw maa to arrest this daageroas
evil, It will grow until oar army is well atgh rained.
Tbe danger of starvation having happily passed away
the approaching aad apparently bounteous harvest
giving evidence of ample supplies far tbe coming year
our great army ia Virginia agala jubilant over a
mighty victory I'aia well assured that oar danger
aew lies in the disorganisation produced by desertion.
Yoa can arrest it my countrymen, if yoa w!l but make
a vigorous effort, if yoa will bat bring to bear the
weight of a great, a patriotic and united eommunlty
