It's the one that makes sense. UP and AT them (chores).
Up and at 'em makes more sense when you think about it as a whole phrase. When does someone usually say this? When you're lying (or sitting) down, right? Like when you first wake up, or when you're being lazy. So think about it: the "up" is as in "GET UP." Get up and at' em. GET up and GET at them. Think about it that way, and then "Get up and get Adam" doesn't make any sense (unless there's somebody named Adam nearby). Nor does "up and atom."
Spain gave up her claims to Oregon, ceding them to the US. She also gave up Florida to the US.
"Let 'em up easy"
Congress did not regard the South as a foreign enemy, and it would not suit them if that suffering community became even more devastated. Lincoln had said "Let 'em up easy", and Grant promised there would be no hangings or jailings, if the Confederates just handed in their weapons, signed the pledge never to take up arms against the United States, and went to their homes.
"It didn't come up" is correct.
Held up.
No actually that is what is mistaken for the phrase "Up and at 'em"
I think that you mean "Up and at 'em". I believe this saying came from the great war of 1914, when the troops came up out of the trenches to advance on the enemy. The cry "Up and at 'em boys" would have given the troops encouragement.

Up and Adam!!!! Probably closer to the phrase: up 'n' at 'em! [loosely, get to it; go for them.. the new day's tasks] Rise 'n' Shine
