DEAR S1R:AI am 'ilfa receipt of a eommuni-
cation from you uoder datesof the 18th inst
but am at a loss whether I should reply to it
as l was. not sthe chairman of the Committee
on Resolutions at the 18th of August Demo
cratic Convention"
If you designed the letter for the official or
gan Of that committee, it should have been ad-
dressed to the Hon. II. e. Smith, of Stark
County. read the resolutions before the Con
vention at his request, and this act probably
led you into the error of supposing that I was
the Chairman" Unless, therefore, you special,
ly desire reply from me, will return the
letter to you, or forward it to Judge Smith, as
you may prefer. -- s A',i =

We commend the following spirited article
from the Hamilton Telegraph, the Democratic
organ Of Butler county. 1t has the true ring,
and should be read and inwaplly gdigested by
"croakers everyBhere:s --....f ..-ez zs..'s,,'
Read! Read! d!--Taxafiou and Huin.
This is all the cry in certain croaking papers
about the costs. aud ruin of this ''fratrieidal
war" as they say, brought on by Lincoln
'Tis true that they will be onerous. They
will lessen the value of land and Ot produce,
and very much affect the interests of farmers,
as well as everybody else, aud it would be very
desirable that the war should cease as soon as
possible, but does not the farmer know that if
the war stops just here, and the South be al
lowed to dictate the terms, as she will if set
tlement be made. under present circumstances,
that their taxes would not cease when the war
is over and our national debt paid, but there
would be everlasting. taxation on the Miasis,
sippi river..by a duty being placed on every
pound of pork, and every bushel Of grain, and
every barrel of -four and potatoes, and every
horse and head of stock that would be shipped
in that direction, OF, perhaps, ten to twenty
per cent. on the dollar, Farmers, let US not
deceive ourselves nor be decciyed by others on
this point, Can it be possible that the l0,-
100000 of the people of the North west are
ready to stop the war at the risk ofduty being
placed upon every article of produce that is
shipped down the Mississippi, or without a
free and untranmeled trade as heretofore p
Let us all be Jealous of our rights and not be
led into error by dishonest politicians, and
never stop the war till we can get q fair, and
honorable settlement of our difficulties.
This duty on our articles for rthe. Southern
market would be as bad as taxes for the war,
and besides they would be perpetual, It will
lessen the value Of land and produce as much
If not more than war taxes. "a .s .r..-
s Don't listen to politicians who are making
all this hue and cry about ruinous taxes.
They neither care for their country, or for you.
Examine for yourselves and do your duty, and
d9n't listen to men who use the arguments and
associate with and sympathize with rebels aud
traitors Observe the men aMen are known
by the epmpvny they keep" ....t
