"A surrender to the rebels advocated--a disgraceful and pusillanimous peace demanded--the federal government shamefully vilified, and not a word said against the crime of treason and rebellion. "FAU Libraries' copy copy with untrimmed edges and unopened pages. Summary: Extracts from speeches at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Aug. 29-30, 1864, designed to put the speakers and the Copperhead theme of an "honorable peace" in a bad light. The Copperheads were a vocal group of Democrats in the Northern United States who opposed the American Civil War, wanting an immediate peace settlement with the Confederates. Republicans started calling antiwar Democrats "copperheads", likening them to the poisonous snake. During the American Civil War (1861-1865), the Copperheads nominally favored the Union and strongly opposed the war, for which they blamed the abolitionists, and they demanded immediate peace and resisted draft laws. They wanted President Lincoln and the Republicans ousted from power, seeing the president as a tyrant who was destroying American republican values with his despotic and arbitrary actions.
