are no match for the army Of the Union
aud unless something extraordinary should
occur, some exhibition Of martial spirit OF
military genius and skill for surprising any
thing hitherto displayed by them, the con-
viction that their cause is utterly hopeless
will soon be admitted all over Europe. To
abandon their capital now, and be driven
out of Virginia before the advancing forces
of the Union would be so plain and start
ling and announcement of weakness and de-
feat, that their best friends abroad would
lose all faith in their cause.
The loss of prestige and the confession OF
feebleness which such step carries with
it, would be no less pernicious and irrepar-
able at home. The rebels cannot quit Nir-
ginia now, without quitting it forever; and
the men of Virginia who form much the
largest part of the secession forces, will not
leave their native State, and giving up all
they have. retreat South to fight for the in
dependence of the Cotton States. 1t is well
known, and doubtless admitted by the lead
ing rebels, that Confederacy formed OF
the Cotton States alone or of them with
other States, without Virginia, would not
stand. In all their plans Virginia has been
considered an essential and indispensable
portion of the structure. OF the secession
back arch, she is the necessary keystone,
and they all feel that without her, the whole
fabric would fall into head of ruins
Hence the struggle for the possession of
Virginia is with them life and death strug-
gle and whatever of courage, or ferceness,
or endurance can be found in their ranks
whatever of ardor or valor may be inspir-
ed by the hope of the near triumph of their
cause, or whatever of grim defiance or des
parate fighting from the fear of utter ruin
may be looked for in the stupendous con.
hict which will soon take place near Rich
mond
As one looks back over the long scroll oi
human history and sees the many red spots
marking the great battles of the world, and
scans closely their causes, or follows dOwi
the long train of their vast results for good
or for evil to the whole human race, there
can no one be pointed out, of which the
consequences seem SO tremendous as those
that are suspended or the battle of Rich
mond 1t is not too much to say that al
that's highest and best in civilization; all the
richest fruits of religious cultur and hu
man progress; all the fairest, best and
the highest growth of the past and all
the highest hopes of the future for mankind
are SO far as we can see hanging on the issue
of that struggle. If the rebel banner shal
be borne in triumph over the field, thu
hope Of freedom will droop, for a time, anC
justice, humanity and religion seem smit
ten down, and overwhelmed with disaster
If the blessed cause of the Union and Liber
ty, one and inseparable, shall be victorious
we shall from that moment enter upon
higher path of progress and greatness, thar
our own or any other country has every be
fore known. May God prosper the right
give victory to the cause of our countr.
and establish freedom for all mankint
throughout the length and breadth of on
once happy country.

Cen. HaIIeck,s Position.

An intelligent gentleman, direct from Gen.

Louis Democrat, some highly important and
satisfactory information in regard to the
present disposition an intention of our army
which lately occupied Corinth He states
that Gen. Buell. with an army of 60,000 men,
embracing two divisions of his original

pursuit of the Rebels under Gen. Polk. At
last accounts he had reached a point below
Guntown, on the Mobile and Ohio Railroad
which is the next station below BALDWIN,.

MORE VOLUNTEERS WANTED.

GOVERNOR TOD appeals to the patriotic of
Ohio to volunteer to fill up the five regiments
of three years men authorized to be raised
in the State. His appeal will be found in
another column. 1t is brief and direct and
we hope will meet with an immediate and
satisfactory response. Troops are needed,
more troops than are now in thu field and if
they are promptly supplied, the war may
soon be brought substantially to close
Thus far Ohio has not been behind any of
her sister States and we hope she will not
be found behind hand at this period of the
work of putting down q monstrous re-
bellion.

may possibly travel over large portion of Wood
county. Should few local items relating to its
soil productions, commerce and improvements, be
acceptable, it will afford me pleasure to communi-
cate with the JOURNAL occasionally.
Pemberville, at the forks of the Portage river.
IS now assuming the proportions, and exhibiting
the thrift of prosperous village. The Evangel-
ical Lutherans (German,) are building a church
which, when completed, will be an ornament to
the place, and, with gallery, will accommodate
five hundred persons. Its dimensions are AZ feet
by 3S, with stceple 70 feet high. Much credit is
due German friends for their enterprise in church
building, and also for their Christian ibcraity in
sustaining resident clergyman, the Rev. J. Baugh.
The water power at this village is of great capaci-
ty at present supplying three saw mills with their
motive power. Rightly used, the advantages here
existing will be a source of wealth to its owners,
and of prosperity to the citizens in general.
Webster township by the skill and industry of
its citizens, is being made 20 bud and blossom as
the Forests are being cleared old stumps re-
moved, wet lands drained, and the rich quality OF
the soil is demonstrated by its productiveness. In
regard to crops, the prospects cheering. Fruit
of all kinds indicate an abundant supply. Corn is
backward, and looking yellow, and owing to its
low price during the two past years, the farmers
generally in this township are applying themselves
to raising wheat in place of it, the quantity of aud
sOwn to wheat is double that of any previous year.
Up to the present time there is not any evidence of
damage 70 the crops from cut-worm, wccv fly, OF
any other destructive agent. An idea may be
formed of the extent to which our farmers have
gone, in raiSir. wheat, when we state that Mr.
Reed, ION the river, beyond Householders corners
has fifty acres of wheat, and q. Williams, ESD OF
Bowling Green has three hundred and twenty five
acres, sown for the first time on land which has
hitherto been applied to raising corn, Walter Da-
wilson, Esq, County Commissioners that with
in the district of which he has supervision there
is increase of nearly fifty per cent. in the guam
tity of land is to wheat, and the prospect OF
the crop is beyond the average. Grass, clover and
potatoes are also very promising. BY the courtesy
of Mr. Davidson, | obtained view of farms that
any man may be proud of; with sapacious barns
and granaries some of which still hold the corn
crop of the two preceding seasons.
The shinglc machine at Househoder's corners
is quite novelty and also very effective inis opera
tion. Good white wood shingles are made at the
rate of eigh. thousand per day, which the propri
cor is ready deliver at Perrysburg at one dollar
and fifty cents per thousand.

OHIO WOUNDED AT WASHINGTON.

A TIMELY movement has just taken place
among the citizens of Ohio resident at
Washington, having for its objects, atten-
tion tc the condition and comfort of wound
ed soldiers from regiments in the armies
now engaged in Virginia. The movement
is timely and we hope will accomplish good
results. This movement was brought about
by the neglect of the proper authorities to
care for our wounded soldiers from the
battle of Port Republic; details of which
we publish elsewhere.

Gen. Morgan at Cumberland
Gan,

General Morgan praises the conduct of
his division in its arduous march through an
extremely difficult country He says that
the cannon were dragged up the precipit-
Gus sides of the Pine and Cumberland Noun
tains by the aid of block and tackle, two
hundred men having been employed upon
the ropes of a single piece, In his progress
considerable skirmishing with the enemy
had taken place, but without any loss on
our side.
Cumberland Gap is a post village of Clai-
borne county, Tennessee, The great thor
oughfare from Kentucky to Carolina passes
through Tazewell, the county scat,
The population of the county in 1860 was
9,6i4, of whom only I43 were slave.
At the election held in 1861 that county
gave majority ofabout 900 votes against
secession.

UNION PARTY IN MARYLAND.

THE Unconditional Union Convention
which recently assembled in Baltimore took
the most patriotic and encouraging grounds.
The emancipation policy of President Lin
coin was most heartily endorsed, the recent
attempt to revive political party under
the auspices and leadership of rebel sympa-
thizers was most unqualifedly condemned
and the policy of the Administration sup
pressing the rebellion approved. This is
sign of promise and one we trust to be
rapidly followed by other signs of equal or
greater significance.

TROUBLE BREWING.

THE last arrival from Europe brings an
important rnmor that the Russian Govern
ment has addressed circular to all its
agents in the East, recommending them to
make preparations for their departure, a
rupture of diplomatic relations between St.
Petersburg and Constantinople being i'm
minent. 1t is further reported that Napo-
leon intends to support the Emperor of
Russia in his designs upon Turkey. So
"the sick man" will soon be in greater
trouble than ever, if rumor tells the truth.

RULLY For ILLINOIS.

THE people of Illinois have passed Judge
ment upon the infamous constitution recen-
tly concocted by a set of secession sympa-
thizers, and defeated it. The majority
against it, as far as heard FROM was over
q 900. The soldiers are still to be heard
from, and they are said to have voted al
most unanimously against it, SO the soil
of Illinois will not be made pleasure
ground for slave breeders yet while.

INDIANA Union CONVENTION.

TuE Indiana Union State Convention last
week seems to have been an unbounded
success Judging from the telegraphic alb
stract of its proceedings and from the more
extended reports given in the Cincinnati
papers. The greatest possible harmony
and enthusiasm prevailed and everything
betokens the overwhelming election of the
ticket put in nomination.

Over all other combined machines. Some may

but none will do both as well as the KIRBY. Those
intending 10 purchase Reaper and Mower will
hhd it to their interest to call at the Agricultural
Warehouse, and examine the one now on exhibition
To those wanting Mower simply, he would say
buy Woods Improved. 1t is very strong, light,
easily managed, and does its work to a charm. Do
not be deceived by agents that are going over the
