We published. the other day, the fact
that the name of Judge R. p. hASNEY had
been taken from the Democratic ticket at
the head Of the Ohio Eagle simply and
solely because he had tnads speech Cd
couraging the enlistment of soldiers un.

this, we published letter, written by a
responsible citizen Of Lancaster. stating
in few words the substance Of treason
able speech made by Edison B. olds.--
In response we havea shower of abusive
anonymous lettora from Lancaster. abOun:
