The Boilers.

The little handful Of discontents In and about
this town are doing some tall lying for these hot
days. One report is thai Kibuck township poll
ed gu votes more than tho Dainocratic strength
OF the township. Another that some twenty voted
from Coshoctcn county. Aud still another that
the tally sheet Of Killbuck township shows six
teen more than there were names on tho poll
books. Every person who knows nytliing about
1t knows that those reports are all false. We
have said before that there were doubtless votes
cast that should not have been, it woad be strange
indcedif 1t were not SO, for there has probably
never a State election held in this county on ANN
other, in which there has not heen one or more
Illegal votes then, why should there not be q
fewRt party nomination that is not protected b,
Tie forms'of law. But no man will be bareiaoet
enough To claim that there were enough wrong G
votes TO change the result on any candidate.-
The plain state Of the ease ia that two o, three
men are dissatisfied because thoy were not Don,i
mated by the Democracy of tho County, and In
violation of every principle Of honor and good
inith they seek, By a union Nth Biaek Repnbii,

them in olfce. Men who come before any party
Tor nomination and afterward refuse to abide by
she decision of that party will not he sustained
by the people to any great extent. A fruitful
crop of contempt is tho harvest usually gathered

The dropping ofparty lines and going for
Union is carried ont admirable by the
Republicans everywhere. Governor Yates
of Illinois was warmly appealed to by
his own parti2an sheets, many Of them, to
give ut least one little indication of a
disposition to acknowledge the magnan-
unity of DOUGLAS in rallying to the sup
port ofa successful rival, by allowing the
interval before the meeting of the next
Legislature to be filled in DoUGLAs, SEN
ate seat by DoUoLAs man. "Not any,"
says governor YATES, Il will appoint a
life long opponent of Judge DoUGLAs,
OH. BnowNlNG of Quincy, who in lS43
run against DOUGLAS for Congress.
Gov. YATES well knows that the Dem,
ocracy are Union men anyhow, and al
ways were, and will be Just as good and
reliable uader insult as favor. Browning
is man of good abilities, Wing like
Lincoln as long as there were any Wings,
and then like him a Lincoln man.

phree months Men.

As much honor is due our "three
months men" who sprung, all unprepar.
ed, to meet n sudden emergency, and who
find, now that tho immediate danger is
over, the calls of neglected business or
family, or even shabby treatment, requires
that they should return home, as those
who later and better prepared and with
more time to deliberate, enlist for three
years. Our blood bols with Indignation
at hearing of mon or companies who de-
cline to re-cnlist, being sneered at or
hissed, or drummed ont of camp, or sent
home in rags. How have they dishon-
ored themselves in the eyes of lazy louts
who did not enlist at all. Every sneer
and taunt at these "First on the Field
heroes should be frowued down with in.
d'gnstion and tho perpetrators held mp to
public seorn and contempt.-PiaEdealer.

The present Attitude Of EM gland
and France toward tic UnitcG
STATES.

One Of the most interesting items in the
recent foreign news is, that Lord John
Russell the Minister Of Foreign Affairs,
had announced in Parliament the determin-
alton of the British Government to pro-
hibit privateers from bringing their prizes
into British ports; and that the French
Government had also resolved to pursue
the same line of policy in regard to priva-
teers fitted ont by either Of the bell!gerent
parties m this country. 1t is further said
that both England and Franco will re-
spect any blockade of its own ports that
the United States Government may mako
effective. .....
Should England and France adhere to
this policy in regard to privateeiing it will
doubtless, be adopted by other foreign
governments, and jeff Davis's letters Of
marque will be of no account. Before q
prize taken by privateer can become the
property OF the captors, it must by the
law of tho nations, be taken into the port
of some recognized power, and be con-
demned or coniscatcd by Prize Court,
acting under the authority of the govern
If the foreign ports should be closed to the
Rebel Coniederacy, and its own ports
should DO blockaded so eliectualy as to
shut them out, there will DO little induce
ment for desperate and lawless men to en-
bark in such unpromising, piratical expe.
ditions.
If England and France should carry
a., Al, |. 4 l. Al 1
indicated, it will serve to strengthen the
hands of our Government and greatly
mitigate the calamities of tho war, by free
ing our commerce in tho high seas from
all danger of loss or interruption by free
hooters under the name of privatecrs--
At the same time. it would enable the Gov
ernment to use our entire naval force in
the effectiveness Of the blockade beyond
all question.
Admitting that the present attitude OF
England and France toward this country
is such as it is reported to be by tho re-
cent arrivals from Europe, it may be chan
ged by next news from this side OF the At
antic.
The monarchial and aristocratical govern
ments of Europe have no real love for the
republican and democratic institutions of
America, and they will only be neutral or
friendly toward us as thoy are prompted
by considerations of their own safety and
interest We can only hope to prevent
them from siding with :he enemies of the
Union by prompt and vigorous demon.
STATIONS of our superiority over the Reb-
ell Conlederacy and our ability to crush it
ont of existence.
Hence, the absolute necessity, if we
wonld be respected abroad, save our ocean
trade and commerce from piratical depre-
dations, and prevent foreigners from in
teriering in our domestic broilS, that the
guerilla warfare that has been carried on
for some weeks past, should cease, and a
decisive military move be made in the
form of victorious march or ereaS bat
tle--that some daring enterprise shall be
undertaken aad achieved, which will as
sure our own countrymen and the world of
the ultimate triumph of our cause, and
give an abiding confidence in'the strength
and stability of our Union.-StdteSm0a.

To THE EDITORS OF THE PATRIoT:-Deem-
ing it my duty to those afflicted, and to the
one who cured me of two malignant Fever
Sores upon my legs, which made my life bur-
densome for five years, having applied to
several physicians who could give me no re-
lief, and trying all kinds of medicine l could
get, which was recommended for old sores.
All seemed to fail. gave up ever being
cured, and wishsd for death to relieve me of
my misery. For many months my limbs
panied me to that extent L could get no
sleep, until my father, who. being cured of a
severe Rheumatism by the Indian Doctor,
at No. 100, High street, purchased for me a
bottle of his Blood Purifier and a box of his
All Healing Ointment, which relieved me
Immediately. My legs are now sound and
well. My general health and strength is
better than it ever was in my life. And if
owe any man on earth debt OF gratitude,
that man is Doctor Anderson. wish every
man, woman and child in the world, who are
afflicted as have been afflicted, who have
suffered as l have suffered, may read this
letter and thus find where they can be cured.
l am of the opinion his remedies will cure
any sore in existence, and l would recon-
mend all thus afflicted to apply to the Indian
Doctor, No. 100 High street, where they can
be relieved ofmisery, and also be permanent
ly cured. MERTON SANDERS,

ELoPENEST.-On the Sth of July Mrs. En-
ma Amelia Scott, the wife of a rich merchant
in New York city, eloped with Mr.. Newton
st. John, one of the fast young men that
abound in that metropolis. The relations of
the lady were almost frantic at her su dden
disappearance, and two New York detectives
were sent in her pursuit. They arrived in
ST. Louis few days since, and left the minia-
lures of the runaway couple with the Chief
of Police of St. Louis, who had them arrested.
Previous to starting on their journey Mrs.
Scott drew $500 from the bank, end also took
with her $500 worth of jewelry. When ar
rested she stated thatit was useless to take
her back to New York and the home of her
husband, as, added to the shame of facing
those she had injured, she loved the man with
whom she had fed, and was determined TO
live with him.
