THE
ENDORSEMENT
OF
HIS
ACTS
AND
SENTIMENTS
BY
HIS
PARTY.
g^^
It
is
snid
by
one
of
the
ablest
of
American
Controversialists,
that
 
tchile
no
»peak^
or
writer
should
mi^rfprrsetit
an
op/n-nent,
he
should
not
be
allowed
to
misrepresent
himself.
This
rule
has
had
i\
controUiutc
influence
in
the
preparationof
this
pamphlet.
The
render
will
therefore
observe
that
its
leadingstatements
or
jiositions,
are
sustained
hy
a.
reference
to
either
offii-ial
publicationsor
to
those
issued
by
Mr.
Vallandigham
or
hisfriends.
These
onh/
are
made
to
speak.
This
fact
gives
more
than
ordinary
value
to
the
pamphlet,
and
will
justify
a
calm
and
patient
perusal
of
its
contents.
The
present
crisis
of
our
country
calls
for
[
constant
vigilance
and
ceaseless
activity
on
the
j
part
of
every
lover
of
Republican
Institutions.
It
demands,
too,
the
dissemination
of
import-
ant
facts,
and
theblunt,
fearless
utterance
of
vital
truths.
No
one
should
be
misled
or
de-
ceived
by
false
issues
or
artful
words,
or
party
prepossessions.
The
true
views
and
real
aims
of
every
candidate
for
office
should
be
ex-
j
amined
and
made
known.
Clement
L.
Vallandigham,
not
because
he
'
possesses
any
special
intellectuality,
or
is
dis-
I
tinguished
by
any
peculiar
moralworth
or
'
social
standing,
but
because
of
his
excessive
vanity
and
audacity,
his
fanatical
passions
andmorbid
prejudice.-;,
his
destitution
of
patriotism
and
traductionof
the
National
Government,
has
acquired
a
mure
than
ordinary
notoriety.
It
is
important
that
his
sentiments
and
aims
be
exposed.
This
shallat
once
be
done
by
areference
to
his
votes
in
the
lower
House
of
Congress,
and
by
extracts
from
his
speeches
in
that
body
and
in
various
sections
ol
the
country.
It
will
then
be
shown
that
his
supporters
and
advocates
entertainsimilar
opinions,
and
aim
8*
the
same
ultimatepurposes.
This,
indeeu
iinol
well
be
doubted
;
for
the
rally-
ing
cry
of
Copperheads,
self-styled
Democrats,
in
nearly
every
section
of
the
Union
is

liANDlGUAMl
It
is
clear,in
fact,
from
their
words
and
deeds
that
they
think
more
highly
of
him
than
they
do
of
the
imperiled
interests
of
the
na-
tion.
They
stamp
his
n.ame
in
huge
capitals
and
in
extended
italics
in
their
papers
;
they
cm-
blazon
it,
and
wave
it
out
on
their
l)anuers
:
their
orators
Hop
it
and
thunder
it
;
their
con-
|

scream
it,
and
their
children
shout
it.

With

On

2d

an
address
in

He
there
said,
