er, not exceeding 400. The total loss in

will be reduced by men returning to camp,
as they are constantly coming in.

How the War shoaId be COnduc-
ted!


The late Union. State Convention in Ohio,
which nominated David Tod for Governor,
thus defined the object Of the war. 1t said:
"Iu this national emergency we, banishing
all feeling OF mere passion or resentment. will
recollect only our duty to the whole country;
that this war is not wsged upon our part in
any spirit OF oppression, nor for any purpose of
conquest or subjugatiou, nor for the purpose Of
overthrowing or interfering with the rights or
established institutions Of the States; but to
defend and maintain the supremacy Of the Con-
stitutioh, and to preserve the Union. with all
the dignity, equality and rights of the several
States unimpaired; and that as soon as those OBJ
jects are accomplished the war ought to cease"
We are glad that the Convention has put on
record the above declaration as to the manner
in which the war should be conducted and we
trust that the Administration will, under no
circumstances. allow departure from it. 1t
can not be disguised that there is certain
class ofpoliticians in the North who have favor
ed this war from hope which they entertained
but only copertly expressed, that it would result
in the emancipation Of the negroes Of the South.
ticians, who are looking to the over brow Of
Of slavery and the destruction Of State rights as
the consequence Of this war, to give them to
know that it was not to be permitted, that Crit.
tenden introduced the resolution, and the House
Of Representatives sustained it. No event could
be more disastrous to the country, North Of
South, to both races, white or black than the
abolishing OF averyin the United States. 1t
would be almost as great disaster as the loss

may be sure that his patriotism Is Of cheap

value to the Government. We want to see
our men Of wealth Of Cincirnati lead OF with
handsome subscriptions to this national fund,
and set an example Of condolences and patriot
ism, which those Of less pscunisry means will
be sure to follow. The books that contains the
subscriptions will be an honorable record, and
We would suggest to our Collector whether It
would not be advantageous to the pub

the subscribers from day 20 day, in order that
the people may be apprissd Of the progress 1t is
making. Without money, the ''sinsws Of war"

The Democracy and other Union men ofOhlo
in Convention assembled, adopt and declare the
following resolutions IS the basis upon which
they appeal to all patriotic Union and liberty
loving citizens 10 unite and rally in the support
OF the ticket this day presented; tEEaf IN
1. Resoivea, That The evil war by which our
country Is ut present distracted, Is the natural
offspring OF misguided sectional;sm, engendered
by ianatical agi,ators North as well as South;
and that the Democratic party having equally
opposed the extremists OF both sections, and
having at all times zealously contended Tor the
administration Of the General Government
within It's constitutional limits, that party is in
no way responsible for calamities that haYe re-
suited from a departure from It's doctrines, and
a disregard Of its warning and advice.
2. Resolved, That in this National emergen-
CIV. the Democracy and other Union men OF
Ohio, banishing all feeling Of passion or resent
ment, viii recollect only their duty to the whole
country; that this war should not be waged in
any spirit oil oppression, nor for any purpose oil
conquest or subjugation, nor purpose OF over
throwing or interfering with the rights OF estab.
lished institutions Of the States, but to defend
and maintain the supremacy OF the Constitu.
ion, and to preserve the Union with all the
dignity, equality. and rights OF the several States
unimpared, and that as soon as these objects
are accomplished, the war ought to cease
8. That while we deem it tho duty ot every
citizen to support and sustain the Government
constitutionally administered, we recommend
that the Legislatures Of the several States adopt
the proper measures for calling National Con-
vention for the purpose OF settling our present
difficulties. and restoring and preserving the
Union.
4. That the corruption, extravagahce, incom-
peteney and fayoritism shown in the adminlstra
ton Of the War Departments Of the State and
Federal Governments, deserve and receive our
unqualified condemnation, and ought to be i'm
mediately corrected and reformed.
s. That the volunteer soldiers who at the
cali OF their country, promptly went forth to do
battle in defense of its Constitution and Laws,
and who, in many, cases, have been compelled
to fight under inexperienced officers, are enti-
tied to our hearty thanks :or the gallant man
ner in which they have discharged their duties
6. That the privilege oi the writ OF habeas
corpus is one Of the great bulwarks OF freedom
and that no citizen can be legally deprived o.
the benefit thereof except by Congress, and then
only in case Of rebellion or invasion, when the
public safety may require it; and that the late
attempt OF the President OF the United States
to suspend the privilege Of the same is unwar
ranted by the Federal Constitution.

The Same Object in VieW--Sta Md by
taAe Old u niOn Democracy.

The Cadiz, Harrison county, Republican,
floats at its mast head the "Repnblican county"
ticket, regularly nominated, and says in rela-
ton TO the new Union party, as follows:
ave think it would have been best to have
kept up the Republican organization, and 10 in
vite all loyal, patriotic Democrats to CO. operate
with US in the support of the Government; bat
our State Central Committee determined o,her-
wise. and we acqu,esce, kaoging that The olject
of the Union organization is The same as that had
in vieo by The Republican party" a.i sa
This is certainly reason enough to induce the
Republicans to support the new concern. but
why not soiu reference to the county ticket? !?
Simply because Harrisoa county is q strong Re-
publican county. ~
We confess, as Democrats, we should feel
proud Of the POSITION ofour good old National
Union Democratic party. Party organizations
by the dozen have arisen and fallen, contend,ng
against it. And every party that has fallen has
been SO odious that 1t has been absolutely ne.
cessary for them to seek candidates from our
ranks.ar .e.gBfa st,st.ssy... q, ......
So odious has the party that tTiumphed with
Lincoln become, that every State officer has
been swept from the State House, and none re.
nominated for fear of communicating the ticket
with their unpopular doctrines, though some of
them have been very good officers. sg.
Not only this. but the stronghold OF tbe par
ty--the Western Reserve (which gave its tens
Of thousand majority Tor the Republican party,
they were compelled for expedisncy,s sake. TO
entirely ignore and repudiate. Not o Republi.
can dared they nominate whs ever .livsd in that
section. 50 odious have they become in the pub
Inc estimation. ~ a3sg,t 'lyig A,a.
I. Even delegates came here from Oberiin who
sad they re.instracted not to put a man on
the ticket who was suspected Of being an Abo
litienist but to put as many democrats on as
possible. With what pride Democrats must
look uponthis state VI things! And what an
Insult to them it rs toiask Them to desert their
time-honored party and principles in this hour
Of our country's danger. .b lr.
. Stand by The old Democratic flag ship or the
Constitution and the Union; she ia ireighted
with the last hopes off the country; at its mast
head floats the name Of Hugh j .Jewe,t as gal,
liant Union patriot as ever breathed, who has
ever been the fast friend OF the Constitution. -
Stand by The government and that flag, and sus
tain our gallant volunteers, and all will yet be
well. - Ssdtesman! gd44 Is .plt5t Is 48a 'Ysf3B

A Ir8Deful Sign.

It is pleasant 10 see radical Republicans &C
knowledging the error Of their ways--as. in
deed, is it to see any class Of individuals do SO
worthy an act-ard coming down from their
higer-law fanatical plat osm to one Of common
sense and patriotism One Of those who show
return to reason is Rufus P. Spaulding, Of
Cleveland. This gentleman, in 1856. was a
delegate to the Philadelphia National Rspubli
can Convention. He made speech to that body
in the course u which he said:a aA.
~ In case Of the alternative being presented. Of
the continuance Of slavery or a dissolution oi
the Union. l AM FOR DISSOLU TION, and

Mr.. Spslding has got over th't nonsense -
In letter OF the 7th INST, announcing him

OF "ihe late Republican organization" avows
himself as among apd Of the, Unionists who
lately, at Columbus, declared for sustaining sla-
very as a State institution and gives assurance
that all his efforts wilfbe 10 ''msntain the Con
stitutoa and the Union, in their integrity and
their entirety. This determination of Mr..
Spalding shows that the radicals themselves
some Of them, at least--are ready to acknowl

are destructive Of the great interests OF the
country, The sign is hopeful one,-Eaq.
