Col. MAsYprsNY Y-Sir: The mutations of
mankind to which humanity 10 heir, induced the
Of Jefferson, Ashtabula county,
the Court House clique, the John
Brown sympatbiEers, and J. R. Gi1dings's pu
pills, peeled sticks and all, TO resolve TO make q
virtue Of necessity, and which they have done
by appending their names, to the nlmber Of
forty -four, to paper announcing their Intention
to 20 10 for the black no. party Convention to be
held at Columbus on the 9th day Of September.
Among the names are three or four Of tboee
who have generally heretofore voted the Dem
ocratic ticket, probably unaware Of the con.
demnstion they were bringing upon themselves
BY sym mpathizDg or acting with the higher or
mob law AboliIionists, the real provokers and
non-c ompromisers of the Southern eecessionists,
who are now in insurrection. The intolerabe
pslIce shown at all times by their leader, Gid
dings, against every thing and everybody south
OF Mason and Dixon's line, would and should
disgrace Hottentots, to cay nothing Of negroes.
-GiddiDgs came home to control the Ohio elec.
tion, and he supposed the majority which Ash.
tabuls county generally gives, would enable
him to do IL ss heretoforei but bis pupils have
warily left of bis and his sons names, since
the apparent rebellion of Cleveland, Portage,
Mabonipg and Trumbull counties, where they
have had the hArdlhood to recommend David
Tod for Governor. Anything 10 the shape Of a
platform and any person who denies the doc
trine that the negro is born free and equal, will
be ignored by these pupils Of the higher law.
Pomeroy's bill before Congress was the true
Interpretation Of Abolition higher law, which
ignores the Constitution and Federal laws made
under IL. I think we shall see lively times
when the result Of the Republican no party Con.
vention transpires think the priesthood North
and South, generally, are playing game which
after the war 10 over, they would be very glad
TO ignore and get out Of when the people Al
large are BUNDLED In the dust With debts and
poverty, and when their brothers aud sons are
lost In the war. Then and then only, suppose
they will have recourse to Christ's sermon on
the Mount. Il tseems to me that II they believe
anything at all Of what they preach from the
New Testament, usually, they must feel self.
condemned in blowing up strife and bloodsbed
for the very temporary applause Of politicians
and spectators.

Of the country on the proceedings Of the Democ-

One OF the humanitarian movements OF our
time,, although little known 90 sucb, Can hardly
be over estimated 10 It's importance upoo the
wsll.beipg Of our widely scattered communities.
Toe population Of the American States 10 In
msuy sections 90 sparse, that skillful physicians
are hardly available 70 them. Vast numbers Of
our people are obliged 10 employ, In sickness,
such medical relief as they can hear Of from
each other, or, indeed, any they can get from
any quarter. Hence arises the great copBump.
tion OF Patent Medicines smoDg rs, greater BY
far than In any Of the old countries. where skll-
ful physicians are accessible TO all classes. Un.
princi pied men have long availed themselves Of
this necessity, to palm OF their worthless nos
trums, until the word has become synopy nous
With Imposition aud cheat. One Of our leading
chemists in the East, DR.. Aver, is pursuing q
course which defeats this iniquity. He brings
not only his own, bat the best skill OF our times
to bear, for the production Of the best remedies
which can be made. These are supplied to the
world, In Q convenient form, at low prices, and
the people will no more buy poor medicines In
stead OF good at the came cost, than they will
bran instead Of hour, The Inevitable consequence
Of this 10, that the vile compounds that hood our
country are discarded for those which honestly
accomplish the end Ia view-which cure. Do
we over.es,imate its importance, In believing
that the prospect Of supplanting the BY word
m msdIcInes, with those Of actual worth and sif.
tue, 10 frsughs with immense consequences for
good, 70 ths masses Of our people. --Css.ffs :nd

The Democrat says Of the tickets
The vote was the largest ever polled In this

let them unite with the only Union party now

The seat OF War.

Taking up the map of the United States, and
beginning at Fortress Monroe, and following
the Western shore of the Chesapeake TO the
mouth OF the Potomac, then proceeding up th'
Western side Of that river to Washington City
and thence stretching far Westward along the
Northern border of Virginia and Kentucky tc
the mouth OF the Ohio. aud thence Soulh"ard
through Southern Missouri TO the Western
boundary of that State, we have Q bird's.eye
view of the vast belt Of county, the whole Of
which ie, either at present or in immediate pros
peet, the seat of war.
Even this does not incluje the whole 6eld Of
hostile operations. Recent adsices inform US
that large rebel force from Texas has invaded
New Mexico, and that a conflict Is now going
on there between the Secession aud the Union
troops
Il is probable that the Federal Government
has already taken steps for sending across Ken.
tucky large and effective military force to
succor the Union men in East Tennessee who,
from the returns of the election on the first Of
August, appear to be largely ia the majority 10
that section Of the State Should this force
succeed in reaching Tennessee without serious
obstruction, the seat Of war will DO transferred
to more Southern point than it has heretofore
attained, and more decisive results may be ex.
pected.
Recent accounts state that the rebels have
concentrated force in Tennessee of from Atty
to seventy-fye thousand. II Is probable that
this is an over e:timase. But one thing is pret-
-ty certain, that they will make vigorous and
deter mined resistance to the entrance of Fed.
eral troops into Tennessee, for 1t seems from
the beginning of the rebellion to have been the
plan Of the Confederate leaders to make the
border slave states bear the brunt and become
the arena Of the bloody conflict, which Is to de-
eide the success or failure Of the conspiracy
against the Union. They will, therefore, doubt
less endeayor to make a stand in Kentucky,
aud we may before many days see that noble
State, G majority of whose citizens are true and
loyal to the Union, converted from q neutral
into O ''dark and bloody ground"
Should these anticipAtions be realised, the
feld for the decision of this civil war may be
in the West instead of the East. In that event.
the whole Northwest will be aroused. The
vital interests of Ohio and the other North
western States, as well as of the entire Union,
demand that the rebels should not make head
way 10 Kentucky, and that the loyal y Of that
State should be protected and preserved. We
trust that this will be done.
