The Samoayer Belchers and Copperhead Plotment in Politics
The article rails at Republican figures Horatio Seymour and Charles Mason over ballot stuffing and war aims. It links Confederate sympathy to Northern Copperheads, cites harsh condemnation of the plan to steal soldier votes, and mocks Democratic leaders while praising Lincoln and Sherman. It also includes a long dispatch from Oskaloosa Iowa praising local loyalty and detailing Civil War battle reports from Resaca and nearby fronts.
