The LATE LIEUT.. MILLER.-The Co.
lumbus Journal pays a well deserved
eulogy to this gallant officer. from Ham
ilton, who. our readers will recollect,
was killed near Gauley Bridge, the
other day:
He was one Of the FIRST to answer to
his country's call. and Immediately
raised a part OF company. which he
generously handed over TO Capt. Smith,
Of his place. in order to expedit the for
nation Of a full company. He was
afterwards put in command Of Camp
Hamilton. where he did excellent service,
until bis troops were moved to Camp
Dennison, and placed in untitled regi-
ments. Captain Miller, not having a
full company. again gave up his men
to Gil up others nearly full. and joined
Company B Of the Twelfth Regiment
as a private.
From the ranks he was soon elected
Lieutenant, and for the last four or FIVE
weeks, Oh account Of the absence Of his
captain, has been in command of his
company.
In Hamilton, Lieutenant Miller has
always occupied a very prominent posi-
tion as leading citizen, a consistent
friend OF the people. a prominent ed
ucationslist. lawyer. DC, and a gentle
man in every sense Of the word.
Lieutenant N. leaves wife and
four children.

EThe "peace party" in New York
End il as difficuIt TO make their nomi-
nees "stick," as in Ohio. Two gentle.
men have already declined the nomina-
ton for Atty General. The State
Treasurer has also declined. They al
appreciate the honor conferred on them.
but cannot indorse the Infamous resolu-
tions, passed by the convention. They
protest against the party spirit, perva-
ding the whole, and wish to see Broad
er patriotism manifested. The desire
to save the remains Of a demoralized,
rotten party, even though the Govern
ment should perish, does not meet their
appreciation. The certainty of defeat,
by at least 100000 majority. may in
some degree. be assigned as the cause.
We believe Dickinson's majority will be
even higher. Spslding's glue is celebra-
ted for making anything "stick." Our
"pesce party" friends might try it on
their nominees. with as good prospect
of success, as they have in the coming
election. Try it by all means-not on
ly in New York but in Ohio.

E We are informed that among
the "secesbers" taken by Capt. Vance,
was one VIM. F. Riggs. This fellow
was one OF the gang of villains under
Jenkins who robbed the McBurnie
steamboat a few months since. Had
this fact been known the evening
he was in Gallipolis as a prisoner,
the Sheriff would most likely have
placed IN "durance vile" this scoundrel.
and Col. Guthrie relieved of any furth-
er trouble. As it is we think our au.
thorities should at once take steps to
secure the scoundrel, and administer
the law as he deserves. A good long
term in the penitentiary, would enable
him to realize "that the way of the
transgressor is hard" This man is in
no way connected with the Riggs family
at the mouth of Raccoon who are
amongst our most respectable lOyal
Union citizens.

PANIC ExrAoRDINARY.-Last SatuT-
day the secessionists held a grand bar
bacue at Simsonville in the county OF
Shelby, whereat the secessionists OF
the surrounding counties assembled
in large numbers, including 3 eon-
pany of cavalry and two or three
companies Of infantry. The crowd
seemed equally equipped for frolic and
a fight. and judging from their air and
conversation, were even more eager
for the latter than the former. Time
rolled onl A 6ne dinner was spread
in 9 grove. and a fine assemblage,
dashed gaily with the trappings Of war;
were on the point Of sitting down or
standing up to the sumPtuous visnds,
when lol the word came that Rosseau
and his men were marching upon the
place, at which announcement. we are
credibly informed, the gallant throDg,
cavalry aud infantry and all. took to
their heels and kept to them vigorously
until the hindmost was safely lodged at
homel The stamrede is said to have
exceeded anything and everything Of the
sort ever witnessed before on this side
Of the Alleghenies. Compared with
it our informant is Of the opinion that
the Bull Run panic itself was but faint
exhibition Of domestic solicitude.-

~The time is short. The election
is at hand. In two weeks our readers
will be called on to vote for county and
State officers. Party lines are ignored.

terests are at stake. David Tod has de-
clared this to be question Of self de-
fence. Tits SO. The black flag of Sc
cession fisunts in full view of the Capt.
toi. The rattle Of the snake is plainly
heard in its stealthy approaches to our
own fresides. They must be defended
at all hazards. While our noble volun-
teers are absent using bullets, let us not
fail to do our part with ballots. The
force and power of the one is physical,
the other, moral. The South admit be-
ing deceived, in the number of their
friends in the North, at the inception oil
this rebellion. Let us show by our
unanimous vote for Tod and those on
the ticket, that they have gained none
since. The moral effect of this upon
them will be tremendous. They will
find that even the 200, 900 in Ohio who
were once opposed to coercing them,
are now in the field against them. New
York boasts of giving 2oo, 900 majority
for the Union. We know Ohio will do
as well. Friends of the Union, IN eye-

of your duty. Get out every vote
Because party lines are obliterated, and
no effort made to stir up party feeling,
furnishes no reason why you should re-
main idle. Appoint Union meetings in
your districts, we will find you compe-
tent speakers. Show by your energy
and devotion to the cause, that you are
more than mere party men. Every vote
left at home, only by so much wesk-
ems the moral effect, of our election,
net only at the South, but upon our sis
ter States. Let old Gallia at least dc
her duty. Let US see how many trait
ers we have amongst US, and in what
townships their nests are located. The
enemy are on the verge of attacking,
or being attacked at all points. Longer
resistance is scarcely possible. Our
troops are done retreating. They are
completely organized and equipped
Success is certain. Toencourage them,

Notwithstanding their dangerous posi-
ton. The other day wishing to occupy

ton, to avoid the fire Of the rebel pick
els, whilst making port holes, they placed
large stove pipe on set OF wagon
wheels in imitation of cannon and
placed it in the road in front Of the shop.
The rebel camp was greatly concerned
about the battery, and shelled the old
pipe most vigorously-knocking all
sorts of holes in the shop. and afording
our men an excellent view Of what was
going on. A tall Michigander trims up
corn stalk, places his cap on the end,
and elevates 1t above his picket rampant,
score of bullets are fired at it BY the
rebels. when he coolly pushes it up
about 8 feet or so. showing cornstalk to

There was one John A. Washing

~Tbere was one John A. Washing
ton who fell heir to Mt. Vernon and FOR
years lived by peddling canes and walk
ingslicks to visitors to the tomb of Wash
ing. and at the same time offering to
sell the bones of his great ancestor
to government for consideration OF a
few hundred thousand. At last he did
find purchaser in our patriotic ladies',
and received the snug sum of 5000, 900,
we say for the bones of General Wash
ington, because without them, the
lands never would have been purchased
at all, unless by some one at sheriff sale
for said Johns debts. In the battle at
Elkwater, John A. Washington paid the
debt OF nature, and received his reward
Of treachery. A fitting end for such a
man. His body was generously sent
to his friends by Gen. Reynolds. How
different from the conduct of the rebels
to Col. Cameron. The flag of truce
sent for his body are arrested and taken
to Richmond, the prayers Of his sister,
unheeded. and to this day his body
has not been recovered. The body oI
John A. Washington should have been
retained, until Col. Cameron's was re.
stored, or his friends set free.

s Will the Union men in the seve

H Will the Union men in the seve-
raj townships in our county, see to it,
that proper means are used to get out a
full vote. The "peace party" small
and weak as it is, are at work, insidious-
ly striving to keep those whom they can
influence from casting their vote for
Tod. If this can be effected in no 9TH
er way. they will pursuade them to re-
main at home on the day Of election
Tothis end they assert this tobe black
Republican war, made to free the ne
groes &c, thus operating on the preju-
dices of men who would be loyal, and
wish to be SO, but for these rattlesnakes
of secession. Remember that many Of
our Union men are away in the army.
The loss Of their vote falls on the Union
party alone. II added to this, Union
men stay at home-en election day, our
vote must be small, and the result only
serve to increase the boldness of the
disunionists.

H Our young friends Aleshire and
Woods need few more men to fll up
their company in the 18th Regiment.
They now have about 60 men in Camp
Wool. near Athens. These gentlemen
have been untiring in their efforts TO
raise a company. and If they had not
been interfered with, would now be in
actual service. We urge our young
men who have any idea of going to war
to "fall in" Capt. Aleshire has had
some experience and stands high With
his Colonel, and as to our friend Felix

TT We have had numerous inquiries
OF late made in regard to the probabil-
ity of any thing being paid to our far
mers, draymen and others who fur
nished supplies to the 9lst Regiment
whilst in camp Darlington. Not hav-
ing any connection with the Quarter
masters department we cannot answer.
One thing is certain, our people have
been very badly treated in the whole
business.
The regiment came on, without any
properly authorized person to prepare g
camp. contract for supplies, &c. The
officers without authority contracted
with various persons for camp ground
fuel, water, lumber, straw, drayage
&C., to the amount of several thousand
dollars, not a dime Of which has vel
been paid. The regiment has been paid
off and disbanded, whilst our people
who furnished the necessaries Of life
are not only unpaid, but can receive nc
satisfactory assurance that they ever
will be.
How mot to do it" seems to be the
order Of things, which is the more read
lily effected by frequent change Of Of
6cers, each OF whom repudiates the
contracts Of his predecessor.
1t is the opinion Of many, that the
fault does not lie SO much with the
Government as with those who fai
to make known to the proper depart
ment the existence OF such CLAIMS
Such ought not to be the case, and We
hope the Government will at once send
an agent who can give the claimant:
some satisfaction. and not put them of
with the stereotyped reply, 81 dom
know" We shall recur to this subject
again, as soon as it is ascertained where
the fault lies. Let justice be done all
parties. Our citizens ask only their
Just rights, nor do we believe the Gov.
ernment wishes to deprive them oI
them.
