Important from Europe.

A tclegraphic despatch, announcing the
arrival of the steamer Washington, gives
the important information that the London
Times of the 18th announces that the Car
had rejected the Vienna note as modified
by the Sultan, and that war seemed inevi-
table. The English and French consuls
had left Jassy-an act which had oecas-
ioned great alarm. General Luders, with
fresh corps of Russian troops, was advan-
cling into Moldavia. The Emperor of Rus
sia was to proceed at once to Warsaw, in
order to meet the Emperor of Austria at
Olmutz on Sept. Esd.
The Turkish troops under Omer Pacha,
on the Lower Danube, insisted on fighting
the Russians, and it was feared that the
Pacha would be unable to restrain their
fanatical zeal
ltwas understood that Mr. Soule would
be received at Madrid Washington IN
ion.

Union! ActiOn!! OrganlzatiOn!H
Fellow Democrats, once more we call
upon you to unite yourselves into one band
and enter the field with renewed action
and determination that cannot be mis-
understood. If you organize properly,
the falsehoods, frauds and deceptions of
the mongrel race will be as chaff before
the wind. You have only to will it and
victory is certain, and that we may have
grand and decided victory, let us one
and all enter the field with well organ
lied band, prepared to do good work, in
the cause of Democracy. In other days
we rejoiced over the good work of our
party. and now because few traitors are
in the camp, shall we be less active?-
We hope not, but that on the other hand,
that it will cause us to be more vigilant
and determined to fight until the last
trump is sounded on Tuesday, and the
victory declared in our favor.
The boilers are now Dragging over the
supposed credulity of. part of the dem
ocracy, and laughing at the idea OF
our defeat; and will you for moment
neglect the duty you owe to yourself and
your party, where an enemy. .tenfold worse
than any open opposition ever was, is
standing ready to swallow youup?
Democrats, let it not be said that you
have permitted an Arnold to betray and
sell you to the enemy, as some men are
now trying TO do. Come out mall your
strength, and then we can defy all the mon
grels that ever presented themselves be-
fore people for support. With you alone
rest, the work, and if well performed, the
bastards will receive defeat that will
last them while time remains. Then
again, let us urge upon you, the .impor-
tance of the labor to be performed You
have mean skulking enemy to defeat and
good ticket of your own to elect. Ev-
cry Han On tne ucHnOCrdIlC uckcL Is wen
qualified for the station for which he is a
candidate, while the boilers have men up
on their ticket, neither honest or in any
way qualified. These are stubborn facts
that no man can in truth, gain say. Some
men arc placed upon the bolter ticket who
cannot and will not support it. They
were placed there without their consent
or advice, merely to purchase their in-
fiuence, and yet that deception is not sufi-
cient to purchase honest and worthy dem.
ocratic American citizens. Then lend
your strongest help to defeat the bastard
and elect your own party.

There is no Mistake.

We have been informed by reliable
person, that Judge Cary and his friends
are clectioneering by attempting to pref
udice certain portion ST Wyandot coun-
.ty against the town of Upper Sandusky.
Now why is all this hatred against the
county town? The idea that the railroad
through this place is going to reduce the
price of grain in an about Cary, is as false
as any thing can be. The more competi-
ton, the higher the price everywhere
This is an indisputable fact, that no sane
man can getover. If Judge Cary is op-
posed to the known interest of thisstown,
and thereby the county, why does he not
openly avow his opposition? If he will
explain his reason for his opposing Upper
Sandusky, we will attempt to show the
weakness Of such opposition.
o 1t is said that in Ridge township an ar
gument is putin circulation, that the rail
road through our town, when put in ope-
ration, will reduce the price of grain in
that section of country. Now who does
not know. that to be false? Why it will
vastly increase theprice here and at Cary
both; for the Cary folks will have to pay
the same price that is paid in this place OF
else the farmer will bring his grain here
So it will be here, for unless our dealers
pay the same as is paid in Cary, our far
mers will take their grain to that place.
Here then, you sec that instead of redu
cling the prices, for all manner of produce
must rise. If men will examine.this mat
ter for themselves, as they are capable o
doing, Judge Cary and his associates cai
pocket all they make out toffsuch weak ar
guments as they are putting forth in thi
matter.

Base and False!

Colonel Joseph McCutchen, is either
crazy or very much inclined to ''lie the
big lie,' as the dirty little miserable slip,
edited by him and printed some where,
will prove, without us saying one word.
This man charges, in his slip, that the
Pioneer received for part of last years
printing, over pay to the amount of $500
For the information of the public in
general, and this wicked and unscrupulous
lying hypocrit in particular, we just say,
that seven hundred dollars would pay
more than the whole bill received by the
Pioncerfor one years printing. Now Mr..
McCutchen, how will you get over that
$500 extra pay for some of last years
printing! Oh! shame on such wild,
reckless and ridiculous statement; to
charge the Pioneer with getting 800 ex-
ira pay for part of years printing, when
the Pioneer never received extra or other
wise, fora whole years printing, over from
$500 to $500. Now where is your 800
over pay. Stick your head in sack and
forever hide your face.
This vile man dare not circulate his dir
ty little bantling in town. No, he carries
it to the country, where he supposed it
would never be seen. He knew there
was not word of truth in the whole of
his publication. But the richest idea OF
all is, he is going to establish a press of
his own, and take away our bread and
butter. Well now is not that ungenerous?
Why Col. we like yourself, have been
performing great labor for this county, and
deserve better fate than you promise us,
in case of your election. How can you
be so destitute of the better part of man
hood? But probably we can sell to you,
as we have offered our establishment at
much more reasonable rates than you ap-
praise lots.

Whig Meeting.

On last Thursday the Wings held a
meeting in the Court house, for the pur-
pose of explaining their position in rela-
ton to their own and other tickets. The
meeting was well represented. The wings
were out as well as quite number of dem
ocrats, and very few boilers or mon
grels.
Some of the bastard politicians were
permitted to speak. DIR. o. Ferris open
ed the meeting by contendingfor the gen
uine whig ticket, and exposing the hypo-
critical designs Of the mongrel race, and
sore headed democrats. Mr.. Brinker
hoff, followed in one of the weakest at
tempts at speech that is often the lot Of
man to make. He attempted explain away
his letters that were published in the Pio-
neer. He read letter from Mr.. Beery
to prove that he was not at this time ac-
ting occording to his own notions of mat
ters, but was entirely controlled by other
persons. Well this is ust about as much
as we expected of the man. He is not SO
much to blame for his corruption, for he
is only the instrument in other mems
hands to perform dirty work.
Moses Gibson then took the stand, and
like his Maine Liquor Law Speech, deliv-
cred one of the most ridiculous things for
speech that any assembly ever listened
to. He said much about honesty, thing
from his remarks, he never knew anything
of or read about. His address possessed
neither sense, honesty, brevity or wit
If Mr.. g. had just once thought of Burns
sayings
''Oh! wad some power the giftie gieus
To see ourselves as ithers see u.s.
He would never have made such an ass
of himself as he did on that OCCASION
After preaching honesty, he showed that
his whole practice was weak dark decep-
ton
q. w. Beery, Esq, followed these men
and he gave them as nice trimming out
as any two asses ever got. He showed
by their own admission, that they cared
nothing about Wing or any other princi-
Piles. That their whole aim was to elect
men who possessed neither honesty or
qualification. Mr.. B. showed up the cor
ruption existing in the mongrel party,
from the beginning; that that party had
no real object in view other than office
He said that they presented nothing to
the people only men, and if asked what
principles they advocated? the answer
was, Judge Cary. What are Judge Ca
ry's views on the Maine Liquor Law?--
Come and take little. What are Judge
Cary's views in relation to any State mat
matter? Judge Cary. Mr.. B. showed
plainly that no principle; no good was ad-
vocated by the mongrel party. He tho't
that Mr.. G. was not showing much hon
esty in his remarks, and that Brinkerhoff,
if presented at the county fair would take
the premium, as being the greatestsquash,
pumpkin, or cabbage head in the coun
try.

Who is to BE Believed.

Itappears that Col. Joseph Nc cCutchen
and Joseph E. Fouke, both boilers, differ
materially in the price of property in Up
per Sandusky; Mr.. Fouke, under oath,
appraises the whole of the lots resold
with improvements, made since the SAFE of
said lots, at $1,000. The improvements
are worth over 5000, leaving the naked
lots worth, at his appraiser1cnt, about
S40O. Col. McCutchen, in his hand-bill,
appraises the same naked lois, Though
not under oath at $3.50. Here you see
a difference between a sworn man and
Col McCutchen, on few lots, Of two
thousand one hundred and fifty dollars.
Well, we can say to the voters of Wy
andot county, if Mr.. Nc Cutchen should be
elected, Ca thing that is not possible and
he should attempt to keep his own books,
the figures will generally correspond with
the ones here compared with Mr.. Fouke'
appraisement.

We have been prepared to see some
foul dirty tricks coming from the mongrel
party, and already have we in possession
the proof of the first step. Fraud and
corruption they seize upon us as the only
way to power, and no act, however mean,
will stop them from an attempt to deceive
the people of Wyandot county. This
mongrel party has procured tickets as we
said would be done, and headed them
Democratic ticket, one of the basest lies
that ever went unpunished. The mem
bers of this foul corrupt and designing par
ty will have every description of fraudu-
lent tickets, as you will see by watching
the polls on Tuesday next. Look out for
all manner of false pretetions, false
charges and mean actions, for half the
candidates on the mongrel ticket have not
the first qualification to Eli an office if
elected.
Democrats you must be vigilant, or
these wolves in sleeps clothing will palm
off some of their fraudulent tickets upon
some unsuspec ing voters. If you wish
to see specimen of their corruption, call
at our of and you can see an attempt
at counteffeiting the democratic ticket
Can you vote for men who have nothing
genuine about themselves to recommend
them to the public? We think you will be
found arrayed against all such corrupt
men as these mongrels are. Go to the
polls carly and stay until they close-be
vilant, and a grand victory will follow
your labors.

A Bad Year.

This Is the very worst year Tor candl-
dates we ever read Of We hear of more
men sacrificing themselves at the altar OF
the "dear sovran people" than ever we
before heard of in the history of time
Why here is Judge Cary, Judge Leith,
Col. Joseph McCutchen and two or three
others in Wyando who have moth
inc at all in view but the interest of the
"dear people," (take their word for it. }
Now, are these not self-sacrifcing men,
Judge Cary Gel ltainly could not want the
office of Representative, if any other man
in the district of Hardin and Wyandot
counties, were qualified for that Office
Then, who believes Judge Leith would be
Senator, under any circumstances, were
it not that the 'welfarc of the State" of
Ohio demanded his services ? Here
is Col. Joseph McCutchen, man than
whom none in the State, has sacrificed
more in the last twenty years; and during
the whole time he didnoth hold office more
than fifteen gears.
Now, are not these men generous in
their offers to sacrifice themselves, at the
altar of the people?
1t may be necessary to here state few
facts in relation to these individuals, as
they have been before the people SO sell
dom. To begin this history of these hon
est people loving deceivers, we will ask a
few questions. How often has Judge
Cary been a candidate for office? We
think the answer will be very Often
Was Judge Leith ever candidate for of
fee, and did the people elect him? He
has time and again been candidate, and
we believe was never elected.
The dear people did not think either of
the gentlemen worthy of their support
Has ever an election passed by in the last
eight or ten years, that Col. Joseph Nc
Cutchen has not been candidate for some
office? Not one. He has been candi-
date in every democratic convention for
nomination, since forty five up to the pres
ent Year He has pledged himself to
support the nominees of those conven-
tions, and then in violation of his pledges.
opposed the nominees. Is he qualified to
fill the office for which he is offering him
self? He is not. Can you believe that
men are honest who are on all sides of all
questions? If you do you will find your
selves deceived the very worst way
They have neither honesty or frmness
about them.
Let every voter read over the actions
and political course of these same men
for the last ten years, and the most decep-
ton ever practiced upon community
will mark them throughout They have
not attempted by any honest or fair means
to get office, without meeting defeat on
every occasion. Have not the democrats
set aside the mungrel candidate for Audi
tor, whenever he offered himself as can
didate? They have, and for this reason,
he is now proclaiming himself as the peo-
ple's candidate; more absurd idea new
er entered the brain of man. Such men
the peoples candidates; why they will
find themselves very much disappointed,
as the people want good men-well quail
fed, in office.

BalIOOning in California.

A boy named JOSEPH GATES, aged six
teen, made remarkable balloon ascension
from Oakland, opposite San Francisco, ON
the 28th. The balloon was fthe largest
size, but was not sufficiently inflated, and
would not rise with the mronant. The car
was then taken off and small boord LASH
ed across the hoop. Upon this the aeroant
took his seat, but he was too heavy. The
crowd then called for boy, and GATES,
who was near, peddling fruit, gave his
basket to his partner, and jumped on the
board; and without any provisions or cloth
ing, more then his ordinary suit, he rose,
before the eronant could give him any in
structions, more than pull the rope when
he wished to come down. The boy sat
upon the hoop, (Which was only an inch
square, J and leaned back upon the cords.
When up about halfa mile, he pulled the
cord, and it broke. The balloon flew ra-
pldly to the northeast, at hight of about
two and half miles. The boy retained
his presence of mind, took out his knife.
opened it, putt in his teeth, and tried to
climb the cords for the purpose OF cutting
the balloon; but the cords were only a
quarter of an inch in thickness, and be
could not climb them. The gas finally
escaped SO that the balloon descended
about fifteen miles from Benicia, in Suisun
Valley, and fifty miles in direct line from
the starting point.-Gn Eng.

To the Young Democracy.

Once more, young Democrats, let us
urge you to prepare for the battle. Come
into the field united and ready to meet the
enemy on every side. They will charge
your party with fraud and corruption,
while this very mongrel party has placed
in nomination defaulter, and other men,
dishonest and without any qualifications.
Such is not the case with your ticket. You
have ticket made up of men that will
honorably discharge every duty as officers.
These men are good democrats, not boil
ters. They belong to the old Jefersoni-
an school. Then let us hear from you on
the night of the election. Roll in with a
majority that will cause loud shouts and
many of them.
Remember, that upon the young men
of Wyandot county, depends much of our
success, and that it may be complete, give
your full strength at the election on Tues
day the II day Of October. Get every
young and old democrats in your town
ship to the polls. Hitch to your wagon
and make one grand rally. Go to every
man know and urge upon him the neces-
sity of full vote to defeat these bastard
politicians that are begging your votes,
and calling themselves independent
Why they are the most corrupt and de-
pendent men in creation.
Again let us say, come out one and all,
and let your township be the bannertow
ship, andnthen when you come in on the
night of the election, you will be loudly
greeted by every democratic voter present
Do your duty as young democrats, with
out fear or favor Yours will be Nigh
ty influence if properly exercised, there
fore we will expect much of you Yo,
will be met by boilers and old fogies, witt
stories, false as they can be, and give then
to understand that you are not to be de
ceived. Look out for your tickets. D.
not vote without reading every name OF
your ticket.

A MAN WITH TWENTY WIvEs.-A man
calling himself DR.. VIM. Hunter, but
whose real name is said to be Nathaniel.
Bird, is in Jail at Camden, N. j., on a
charge OF bigamy, and various other
charges. On Sunday, Elizabeth Harring-
ton, a lady of Philadelphia, visited him in
prison, and ascertained that he was the
man to whom she was married on the 9th
of July last. On the same day he was
visited by another lady from Kensington,
named Mary Thomas, to whom he was
married in May last. 1t is also stated that
he has wife in Reading, another in VIII
mington, Del, and another yet in Phila-
delphia. The prisoners is only about 90
years ofage, and, and, it is stated, de-
clares that he has twenty wives-a state
meat which may be true, as more than
one-fourth Of that number has been found
within few days. tits alleged that he
abandoned each wife soon after marriage.
All the women in Camden-bless their
carious souls-are trying, in droyes, to get
sight at him!

fancy is no. very valuable.

Leith to read the quotation we take from
his letter offering himselfa as sacrifice for

bring myself under no obligations, how
ever, to support the individual interests of
any distinct political party
Who ever heard of greater absurdity
than this? Judge Lieth might as well at
tempt to make the people believe that the
moon is made of green cheese, as to at
tempt to make any person believe he will
not lend his influence to certain political
cliques. Who was it that attended two
or three conventions in Wyandot county :?
No other person than this same sacrificing
individual. 1t is a pity that the ''interest
of his constituents and the welfare Of the
States,' should compel him to make such
sacrifice. Judge, we really believe that
the people will not ask you to make such
a sacrifice, as you are offering to them
1t is our honest conviction, that Robert
Lee, the Democratic nominee, will get the
largest majority ever given in this Sena-
