In these ten States Mr. Lincoln's majority in 1860 was 208,066. In 1862, the Opposition not only overcame this, but secured a majority of 35,781. The expectation of conscription to carry on the contest, increased taxation, high prices of fabrics and food, and a depreciated currency were made powerful instruments in turning the public mind to thoughts of peace by means of compromise; especially when, after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued, the Peace Faction, assuming to speak for the entire Opposition, declared, with seeming plausi

General Butler, the officer alluded to, was a political friend of Davis's, until the latter became an open enemy of the Government. In the winter of 1860-61, Butler was in Washington, and told Davis and his traitorous companions, that if they attempted to break up the Union, they would find him (Butler) fighting to preserve the Union.
