"tOppcrhcads About.

Dming the lato political contest in thi,
State, tho Abolition papers exhausted
their blllInSsgate vocabulary in searcl
OF eplthets to apply to the Democrati,
party and its candidates. Among othe,
nice names thoy call us "copperheaas. u
Well, Judging by tho returns, our State
is alive with copperhe ads; on the day OF
the election they were in towns, valleys,
and mountain tops, and many sanguinc,
tmcving, impudent negro worShippers
were Stung to death. Gurlcy, Bingham,
West, Shellabarger. Welker and other
Republican candidates for Congress, felt
the poison the copperheads. and expired
without struggle. Hurrah for the cop
perheads They have done much in ban
shlng treason from our State.

stamp Duties.

Our business men and farmers will do
well to remember, that the stamp duties
imposed 10y the act, of 1862, took effect
on the first day of October. And that
notes, drafts, checks, certificates of de.
posite, powers of attorney, protest of
note. bill of exchange, bond, mortgage,
probate OF will, letters Of administration.
deed ofgrant, lease, article of agreement,
entry OF dry goods, bills of lading, re-.
ceipis DC, are not valid in law and can.
not be en- forced unless stamped. And a
heavy penalty is attachad to each of the
above named articles for making, signing,
accepting or paying them without being
stamped, ranging from $50 to 1000, and
in some instances including imprison-
ment for period not exceeding five years.
BE careful or you will lay yourself liable
to the law ignorantly, and in law igno.
rance is no excuse. The law presumes
every man to know his duty.

"OUr Great COuntry,"

We hear the Abolition presses and
speakers daily mouthing "our great coun
try" Well, who made it great? Echo
anSwers-"The Democracy" WHY is
1T great, or rather was it great? Because
1t extends over a boundless, rich and
varied territory. Who added this terri.
tory and thus made our country great?-
Echo again answers. "The Democracyr'
Who opposed, for half a century, the ma.
king of this "great country?" The
New England Feieralists and the M odern
Abolltionists. When was our "great
country" destroyed? When these New
England Federalsts and m odcrn Aboli.
tionists got into power. What impu.
dence is it then for these men to noao talk
about "our great and glorious country?"
The Democracy made it, and the De-
mocracy alone eau restore it. All men,
therefore, oppose to the Democracy, are
opposed to the restoration of this .great
country" and according to their own
logic, they must all be traitors Ohio

But, we have not touched upon the

The Dayton yyom;c;,,c.

The following notice of the killing OF

Empire, Of Saturday, Nov. /:
/ We are called upon to perform tho
most sorrowful duty of our life. j. II.
p',,neyer, my, senior editor and proprietor
oi this paper, was killed this morning
on sc ond street, by Henry M. Brown
natter shooting him through the neck'
with revolver, causing death in n Gou,
minutes after. We have no heart NJ
present. to comment upon this most das
!a.dly and infamous outrage. The most
lntence excitement pervadcs the com
muhity' and it is with difficulty that the
trends OF MIR. Bollmeyer are prevented
from going to the Jail and demanding tho
person of Mr.. Brown fer immediate nm
iShment. To all such we advise modor.
ation. The murderer is in tho hands of
the law-let it take its course.
we have been connected in bps;,oss
with the deceased for over two years. and
a more upright, honorable, noble hearted
man, it has never been our fortune to
meet with. An unialtering friend, kind
husband, an alfectionate father, his untimc-

thousands of friends here and elsewhere.
lie was about thirty two years of age,
and leaves young wife and child to sor-
row over his early death.
The following account OF the same sad
affair is given in the Dayton Journal of
Monday, November 3:
1t is with deep regret that we are COM
PEELED to record the death of j. f. Boil
meyer, Esq, one Of the editors and pro-
prletors OF the Empire. Cn Saturdv
morlng asst, he met Mr.. Henry NJ. Brown,
on Second street, and personal al:erca-
ton ensued, at the close o. which Mr..
Brown shot Mr.. Bollmeyer. the ball pass
ing upward through the neck to the brain,
causing immediate DEATH
This sad and unexpected occur
renee, has proved a terrible blow to the
friends and family of the deceased. In
the very verge of manhood, and endear-
ed to large circle of friends, by his gen.
erous qualities Of character, his untimely
and violent death shocks them and the
community with horror.
Mr.. Brown also, has large circle of
friends, who deeply regret his palticipa-
ton In this unfortunate affair.
The finding of the Coroner's Jury, Is
that the deceased came to his death at
the hands of Henry M. Brown. Mr..
Brown is under arrest, preliminary to
judicial investigation. The facts will be-
fully developed then, and the communi-
tJ shonld patiently await the result OF the
trial.

Abolition Outrage.

i he postmaster at Rowville, in this
county, received from the Department at
Washington an order for his removal.
and the removal Of the Post office to New
Bedford, Coshocton County.
The reason for the removal, as stated
IN the order, was the disloyalty of the COM
munity. This is utterly groundless, and
the true reason Is the large Democratic
mnJorlty that township gave at the late
election. No doubt this is the work of
some of those sweet scented Bingham
Aboitionists of this section. who are eter-
nally up to that kind o. mean tricks. The
removal Of the Office is discomodity to
about two hundred citizens, who now will
have to go four miles for their mail mat
ter.
lhe Postmaster was Democrat, and
as the proceeds Of the office did not nav
over fifteen dollars per year, of course.
that was no inducement for the appoint
ment of an Abolitionist, and all because
Of the disloyaly cfMe community Aboli-
tonists, who have been defeated in their
schemes, and now seek their revenge un-
der the wings of this Abolition Admins
trat'on. Is it because the people have
come to the conclusion to try and save
the Union, and vote as their opinions
prompt them? Is it because they have re-
buked the party that has been laboring
for years for the dissolution of the Union?
TO this the people will say yes. What
Kind OF a community was there in Mill
township when petition for dissolu-
ton of the Union was circulated and
signed by over forty. The Abo'itionists

A Grand Truth.

The Chicago Times utters a grand
truth in the following quotations. truth
as potent TO allunprejudiced minds as the
light OF the sun at monday abolition
is the primary cause of our difficulties
not slavery. Slavery was entitled to be
let alone within its proper sphere aboli-
tion arose and assailed it, and undertook
to teach the people that the Union could
not survive half slave aud half free
Then appeared secession, and between
the two denominations the Union is in
deadly peril. 1t is the mission of the
Democracy, Joined by other conservative
people, to bring it out of this terrible cha -.
os. We pray Democrats never for a
single moment to lose sight of this grand
truth.

The Abolition papers are unceasing il

They give all reasons but those which arc

The popular reverence for the letter and
spirit Of the constitution, which the rev.

over. the country. Another cause is the
rampant corruption developed in the Re

Let all Democrats remember that the
glorious triumph which they have Just
achieved, is only the beginning of til,
great work which they have to do. w,
have, in this State, to elect a Governor
and Democratic Legislature, before re
form can be effected We must clean ont
the State House, which is now more fill
thy than II brzzard's roost. During
eight long. sad. calamitous years.-the
Republicans have had control of Ohio.

How TO Obtain u Pension.

There is no necessity for paying a heavy
percentage of the pension to an agent,
who often dishonesty makes an intricate
case ont of simple one. In obtaining
a pension the steps arc simple. First, the
declaration with two witnesses is made
before any court of record, or an officer
representing it; second, the certificates of
two surgeons as to the injury received or
disease contracted, and the degree of dis
ability is necessary; third, the certificate
of commissioned officer having knowl,
edge of the facts, stating time. place and
facts.

---Tricks and Fraud by the
AhOtitiOniStS

The Democracy OF this Congressiona
District have achieved one of the mos
signal triumphs in the history of politics
Democrats Of Wayne, Holmes and Ash
land were, under Welker draft pro
gramme, ordered off to Camp Mansfield
while the drafted men of Lorain and Me.
dina were kept at home to vote for the
trickster. In addition to this, over two
hundred full blooded negroes voted in
the Oberlin region with the Abolitionists
Democrats took the trouble on the day OF
the election, to obtain tho facts, and
when the full report is made and publish.
ed-as it will be-we venture the asser.
tion that white men, Republicans as well
as Democrats, will be shocked at the
amazing infamy and villainy practiced by
the radical Abolition DiSunionists in
their dying struggle on the plains of Ober-
lin. But all would not do The peo-
pie have spoken in favor of the Democ.

Such IL AbOlitiOnism.

An Exchange truthfully remarks that
man accused Of murder, robbery, bur.
glary, arson or any OF the most Infamous
offences in the catalogue of crime, may
demand a hobeaS corpus, be confronted by
his accuscr and learn the nature of his
accusation, and be discharged on bail,
even IN murder, except in cases where the
evidence is too plain for doubt. These
are constitutional rights declared to be
inviolate.
But how is it now ANY civil dis.
posed person, orpcrsonal or political enc
my. may set policeman to arrest You,
drag you from your family and business
hundreds of mics away to some prison
or fort. The accusasion and your aeon
ser are kept secret, the ha6eas corpus is
suspended, and you can get no hearing,
or when you do get one, you have no way
to get your witness to establish your in

A New Test.

at least. it used to mean that The

however, have established an altogether
new test of loyalty, to wit; devotioa TO men.
1t Is the test that monarchs prescribe to

countries. but hitherto unknown one in
America.
