We are struggling for everything that is dear to man: our lives, liberties, families, property — all dependent upon the issue. The young men are baring their bosoms to the foe. Let the old men, and those whose purses are plethoric, pour, out the life-blood of their riches as freshly as our brave soldiers do their's upon the battle-field. By carrying my proposition into effect, we shall not only benefit the republic at large, but will secure an additional defence to the city of Richmond. Very respectfully, Blankon Duncan.
