They have not stumbled upon a single act of wise statesmanship since this war commenced. If the policy of Lincoln had been especially shaped for his won discomfiture and for Southern advantage, by a Cabinet of Southern men disguised, it could not have been done more to the satisfaction of the South than it has been done by Seward and his Yankee colleagues.

They have not the first idea or instinct of statesmanship; they are as ignorant of political science as they are of the lost arts of antiquity. They have no political ideas in this contest beyond Lincoln's notion, which would have been worthy of Sancho Panea himself, that there are no States; that there is but one Government — the one at Washington; and that all who oppose it are " rebels."

Griffin (search for this): article 3
"Rebels" If epithets had been effective missiles of war, as destructive as the projectiles of rifled cannon, the Yankees would long ago have had the South conquered and subjugated. The Tribune, Herald and Times would have done the work more thoroughly and quickly than all the Sherman's, Griffin's and Rhode Island batteries that could have been brought into the field. The war in that case would have been short, sharp and severe, in fact. The favorite epithet with the Yankees is "rebels," a term implying a right on their part to govern, and the duty on ours of obedience. They have convinced themselves that we are an inferior sort of people; that it is they who support, feed and protect us; that we are under the ban of mankind and the frown of Heaven, for the sin of slavery, and that it is by virtue of their own extraordinary righteousness and favor in the right of the Almighty, and of the countenance and protection which they choose to vouchsafe unto us, that Heaven mitiga
