New Oregon plaindealer. (New Oregon, Iowa) 1859-1866, 1862-08-15

We publish elsewhere the proceed
ings of the Board Of Supervisors, to
which attention is called by those in
terested in the liberal bounties offered
by that body to those volunteering in
to the service of their country.
That the Warrants issued may bring
their full face to those to whom, and
for whose benefit they are to be issued,
an association of ta~ payers is about to
be formed, who are to deposit with
the Treasurer Of the association sum
Of money equivalent to their county
taxes, and receive therefor Warrants
issued to the volunteer, or to his fami
ly to its amount. This is Just and
right, if any man is entitled to his
money, it's him that serves his coun
try faithfully, and especially his fami-
ly should not be the victim of those
who speculate upon the ills Of their
country.

A CoRREcTloN.-Having been alb
sent on our last day Of publication, an
error was made in publishing a resolu-
ton adopted at the Democratic Co.
Convention Of Allamakee county. It
vas asserted by Mckay that the Dem
ccrats Of that Co. had refused to aid
the president in the use of means for
the suppression of the rebellion. In
our article we referred to tho 18th reso.
ntion, as our readers will sec, yet the
hands in the Office published the 5th.
The fourth resolution We now publish,
thus proving him who reported the
scandal against the Aiiamakee Democ-
racy either . wllfal falsi6er or an igno.
ranus
4th. Resolved, That We will sup.
port the Constitution of the United
States as it ia and use MI the means
given US by the Constitution in putting
down this Rebellion which the Aboli
tionists Of the North and the Secession
lists Of tho South have brought upor
the country.

We are informed that the P. NJ. at
Vernon Springs has, in anticipation of
the draft to be made, had two Deputies
sworn in, in addition to the one hereto
fore employed. We hope this informa-
ton may prove unfounded.-We are
also informed that young man, of
Paris Township, this county, ardent
for War has left for Canada to escape
draft. We hope no citizen has disgraced
himselfby fleeing the country that has
given him protection to escape the du-
ties Of citizenship. From tho report Of
the War Department to Adj. Gen.
Fuller of ILL.,, elsewhere published in
our paper, we infer that no number Of
men enlisting, will enable State to
cvade draft. Nor do we desire they
should, q draft will bring tho people to
their senses.

M,srAKES-The patriotic, and self:
sacrificing editor of the "Dog.Star''
said at the war meeting Tuesday night
that no more young men could be
spared for the War, and made patri-
otto appeal to the wives that they pre-
vail on their husbands to 60. Now,
Mckay, We not only think you are
mistaken, but We have heard nearly
every young lady in town say that you
can be spared, and every married lady
so far as we are informed concars u,
the opinion.

ADHESIVE CURRENCY.

Congress seems to have exhausted
its ingenuity in the attempt to invent
a currency that would STICK: to the peo'
pie. Postage stamps gummed with the
best adhesive, sticking to sweaty fin
gers were wholly unknown in the prim.
tive ages, while now they supersede
the necessity for silver. 1t is gravely
supposed by many that a high duty
which will devolve upon our next nation
al Congress will be to make molasses
candy legal tender, providing for its
being issued in Jumps worth from one
cent to ole dollar,
