From the Louisville Journal
Approaching Storm in Ke1S
tucky.

Union Men! We know that you
have struggled earnestly and honestly
for peace with the Secession party Of
Kentucky. You have quietly submitted
to outrage after outrage from Secession
lists both within and without your State.
You have submitted to the persecution
Of your brethren in Southern Kentucky.
You have succeeded in three elections
within the last four months by over
whelming majorities. The people have
sustained you. Secessionists are for
s7bjugating Union men in the Seeded
States for refusing to submit to the will
of a majority, but they are unwilling to
submit to the voice Of the people here
They agitate and agitate, and agitate,
notwithstanding their odious doctrines
have been repudiated time and again
They do not intend to rest satisfied un-
til they succeed in bringing civil war to
your homes and fresides. They have
entered upon system of bullying and
bravado. They have announced that
Union men of Kentucky shall not re-
ceive arms from the Government. They
have announced that Kentuckians shall
not rally under the flag of their country
upon their own soil, for their self-de-
Tense. They are instigating the burn
ing of railroad bridges and tearing up
Of railway cars. Their purpose, if un-
checked, is to institute reign of terror,
and thereby overcome the brave and
loyal Union men of Kentucky. Will
you quietly submit to it? VIII you
permit to be established in this State
such military despotism and terrorism as
exist over your brethren in the Seeding
States? We imagine that we can hear
a universal 'No" shouted by all the
Mnion men in Kentucky. We fell that
you are worthy sons of the ''dark and
bloody ground" We say to you, then,
that you are passing through fearful
crisis. Fiends and devils in human
shape are plotting your ruin and subju-
cation. They are laying plans to have
Confederate soldiers in the employ Of
King Jeff. Davis introduced into this
State. AWAKE! AROUSE! AND PREPARE
TO MEET THE INVADER! GIVE NOT AN
INCH TO THE CONsPIRAToRs IN YOUR
MIDST, FOR THE MORE YOU GIVE THE
MORE THEY WILL Advances! MEET
THEM AT THE THRESHOLD IF THEY
DARE INTERFERE WITH THE EXERCISE
OF ANY CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT WHICH
YOU POSSESS. EVERY MAN OF YOU TO
HIS POST, AND WHILE YOU WILL NOT
INVADE ANY SISTER STATE, If WAR Is
RENDERED. TO YOU, ACCEPT 1T FEAR
FULLY, AND IF YOUR STATE Is. IN
VADED, WELCOME THE INVADERS with
BLOODY HANDS TO HOspITABLE
GRAVES" We do not desire unneces-
aarily to alarm you, but. we tell you
that we understand the movements of
this Secession party. THERE IS DAN
GER AHEAD. BE NOT TAKEN UNA
WARES. Eternal vigilance is the price
of liberty!

The Enquirer's Liberty of the
Press and the Working Men.

The Enquirer would fain convince
the working men of Cincinnati that the
freedom of its publication-by which it
means the liberty to furnish aid to the
enemy which threatens our satety-is
essential to the welfare of the working
men The Cincinnati working men
know its course too we'll to be overcome
by this snakish fawning. Was it to ben
eft the laborers of Cincinnati that, DUR
ing all the last Presidential campaign,
the Enquirer laborcd to convince the
South that all the people of Ohio who
voted the Republican ticket we're de-
termined to deprive the South Of its
constitutional rights? Was it to benefit of
Cincinnati mechanics that the Enquirer
exhausted all its ability in persuading
the people of the South, that the major
ity of the people Of Ohio were so hostile
to Southern rights that the South could
not safely live in Union with US?
1t was the Enquirer that did its ut
most to make the prosperity and bust
ness Of this city depend upon political
elections--that undertook to make the
industry Of this city hang upon the sue
cess of the Democratic ticket so that
the people should not dare vote any
other. The rebel papers can find moth
ing better adapted to spread the rebel
lion than the charges made by the Gin
cinnati Enquirer against the people of
the North. If those charges were true,
tie rebellion would be justifable. The
Enquirer cannot be in favor Of suppress
sing the rebellion until it has taken
back its charges against the people of
the North and of this State.
This is what its liberty of the press
has done for the working men of Gin
cinnati. 1t has devoted itself to fur
nishing falsehood for exciting sectional
hatred among the people of the South
against this city and this State. The
cause Of that fapatical hate in the South
which is now gloating oyer its threat of
burning of this city, may be found in
the editorials of the Cincinnati Enquirer.
The working men of Cincinnati are not
prepared to get up any zeal for such
liberty of the press, now when it would
betray the Government TO the enemy
which its own falsehoods have excited
to rebellion Cincinnati Gazette.

UI5H HOU,
WILLIAM DENNISON,
Governor of Ohio.
The Ohio State Military Ap-
pointments.

We print elsewhere in this paper a
statement of the appointments to the
command of Ohio Volunteer Regiments.
with some remarks, showing tie mill
tary and political status Of each. We
invite the people to compare this with
the charge of favoritism M ade against
the Ohio War Deparement, by resolu
ton of the Democratic State Convention,
and to compare it also with what, ac
cording to their experience in Demo
cratic management, would have been
done if a Democratic Administration
had the control of these military ap-
pointments. Does any one suppose that
any Republican would have had the re-
motest chance for military command?
And does not every one know that if
Democratic Administrator had the con-
troll of war expenditures, the party gull
lotine would be applied to any represen-
tative, politician, or press, that dared
lisp of extravaganza or unfaithfulness.
and that the first object of the war
would be to see how much could be
sucked out of it for the benefit of the
party?
Here are forty-one Colonels of Ohio
Regiments, of whom eighteen were
Democrats, eighteen Republicans, three
Americans, and two unknown. Coy
ernor Dennison has appointed twenty
three Cnlonels for the three years SER
vice, of these, twelve were Democrats,
nine Republicans, one American, and
one unknown. Out Of these twenty
three Colonels, eight were educated at
West Point, five served in Mexico and
in the three months service, two in
Mexico, six in Western Virginia in the
three months service, and two were
without experience in active service
So much for the political favogitism,
and SO much for evidence of competency.
Yet in the face of this the Democratic
State Convention adopted resolution
denouncing the War Department of the
State for favoritism in its appointments.
The full details of these appointments
may not have been known to the Con-
vention, but ignorance would be no ex-

cuse for charge intended to destroy
confidence in the Government in time
of war. But every member of that
Convention knew BY his own knowledge
of the officers in the service, that when
he voted for that resolution he voted in
favor of a false charge against the Gov
ernment, which could have no other eff
feet than to damage the public service,
destroy popular confidence i'm the army,
depress the zeal of volunteers, and deter
them from entering the army, at q time
when the very existence of all Cavern
ment and the safety of our. lives and
property demand every energy of the
country to be thrown into the war.
Weisay the Ess1nbers of the ConEon4
ton knew, they, were reaiag4a.. false
charge which could only have this eff
feet. Could it have had any other mos~
tive? When a deliberative body votes
a deliberate falsehood, they are entitled
to no charity to cover their motives, but
may be. justly held to have, purposed
that which the falsehood only could ef-
feet. There is not a member Of that
Convention, who has any character for
veracity to maintain at home, who will
make that charge, personally ; which he
voted for in the Convention. There is
not one of them that does not know.it
to be false. Yet we have q Democratic
Convention voting, in body, a charge
which every member of the Convention
knew to be false, and which not one of
them will reiterate on his personal yer
racity.
The circumstances admit of but one
conclusion. The Convention made this
notoriously false charge against the ad.
ministration Of the military department
of Ohio, for the purpose of creating pop
ular disafection against the military Or
ganization, depressing the zeal Of the
people. for the war and keeping volun-
.teers out of the army, when the peril Of
the country demands their services
To the extent Of their ability, regulated
by a nice regard fortheir personal safety,
the Convention furnished aid to the en-
emy. It was an act of moral treason, and
there is no room for doubt as to their
motive when there is not so-called res
spectacle member Of that Convention.

the charge by which they sought eto

THE POETS LEISURE.
BY RURNs JUNIOR.

To breathe upon the poets Tyre
The theme Of life the muses. tell,
Inspired me with sacred fire
That permeates the trembling shell.
The rosy light of youth illumes
The varied path that lies BEFORE
And sacred memory assumes
To reproduce the gone-before.
From this Gull the choicest flower
That ever bloomed in Flora's dress,
And interweave with Jealous powers
i The fair bouquet Of childhood bliss.
And, as it blooms in riper years,
place within it's silken folds
The flower of Friendship, bathed in tears
asE And born in beauty tender molds.
But not as rhymers idly sing
Would the name of Friendship use;
To make of every "airy thing ..
A confdant, insults my muse
The precious diamond and the pearl
Are not for ALL to find, ween; 1.
The virtues, too, and friends we love
The dearest are the most unseen.
The life we live, and world we love,
Tie path we tread for social bliss,
Would pain our heart, as false they prove
We're there no life inside of this.
The hopeless heart with sorrow wrung
Had not staff on which to lean; l
Heard it no words 'bore human tongue,
Had it no friend in--God, unseen.saa

RESURGAMUs.
BY R. II. sToDDARD.

They say the battle has been lostl-what then?
There is no need of tears and doleful strains:
The holy cause for which we fought remains,
And millions of unconquerable men.
Repulse may do US good-it cannot harm;
Where work is to be done, It's well to know
It's full extent, before the final blow;
Power neryed to crush, must bare it's strong
right arml
Let them rejoice, then, while they may; for we,
Driven back a moment, by the tide of war,
Re-gathered, shah pour on them from afar,
AS mighty and resistlcss rs the sea! :
The battle is NOT lost while men remain,
Free men, and brave like ours, to fight again!

it is very reprehensible conduct, meri-

ST. Louis. August 27.

Gen. Pope has information from
North cast Missouri that Martin Green,
instead of threatening TO attack Kinks
vile and Athens, as heretofore reported
is rapidly retreating toward the Mis-
souri, river. Gen. Hurlbut is pursuing
him from Kirksville, aud Col. Moore
from Athens. Green's force is estima-
ted at 200, and is supposed to be now
in the lower part of Monroe county,
moving South, and will probably attempt
to cross the river in Galloway or Boone
counties. This will rid North- east
Missouri of his presence, and restore
quiet in that portion of the State.

Recipe for French Mustard.


This condiment has lately come to be
almost indispensable with all good livers.
1t is equally good with fish, or fowl, and
wonderfully helps bachelors bread and
cheese to go down savorially. Its COM
position has been mystery; but the fol-
lowing recipe, says the Scientific Amer
ica,,, is an excellent way to make it, and
plain table-salt may be used in place of
the anchovies, where there is any diff
Guilty in pouring them. Take one pound
of -four of mustard, quarter of an
ounce each of the following plants in
green state, and quite fresh: parsley.
tarragon, chervil, and celery, together
with one Or two eschalots, or garlic, and
half-a-dozen picked anchovies. Mince
all these latter very fine, then rub them
with the mustard. Next mix one ounce
of honey, one onnce of salt, and wine-
glassful of vinegar, in half pint of
water, more or less, as you wish the con.
sistence of the mixed mustard to be;
then put the mixture into small pots.
with teaspnonful ofvinegar on the top.
Cork we'll down, and as its flavor inn
proves by age, it may be kept month
or six weeks before it is brought to table.
