BENEDICT ARNOLD & HORATIO SEYMOUR! THEIR IDENTITY OF VIEWS. WHO IS TO BE THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES FROM THE New York Times OF SEPTEMBER 19 1864 caption title
1868WRCAM48472Brooklyn: D.S. Holmes 1868. Broadside 13 x 10 inches. Some small tears chipping and loss at top and right edges. Minor foxing. Very good. Broadside printed for the U.S. Presidential Campaign of 1868 which pitted former New York governor Horatio Seymour against Gen. Ulysses S. Grant. This broadside points out Seymour's Copperhead tendencies and statements made by him in 1864 linking him to similar sentiments made by the notorious traitor Benedict Arnold. Seymour's Copperhead utterances during the war haunted his campaign and he lost decisively to Grant. The text printed here strives to demonstrate: <br> <br> ".the points made by Horatio Seymour against the Administration in 1864 are identical point by point with those made by Benedict Arnold against Washington and the Continental Congress in 1780.The Copperhead chiefs of these times who draw so lavishly upon the sophistries and fallacies of 1780 for the furtherance of their factious designs cannot too well understand that the sequel to all this is endless disgrace. They must not expect to fight the Government with weapons of the Tories and of the blue-light Federalists without sharing the same fate." D.S. Holmes unknown books
