County CLERK.-The Democrat of yester-
day gives several reasons why the people
should vote for s. II. Packard for County
Clerk at the coming election. We know Of
one all prevailing reason why they should
not. Mr. Packard is one Of the editors Of a
paper which advocates such abominabse doc
trines as are contained in an extract which
we publish this week under the title Of "The
Future" Read it, ant. there find embodied
Mr.. Packard's political sentiments, and then
say if you can, he is the man to receive your
votes. We know what your answer will be.
No man thoroughly imbued with secession
principles, and who through the press boldly
advocates them, can be elected to any office
in this county. Mr.. Coleman is an uncon-
ditional Union man, and therefore will be
elected.

ANOTHER HERO GoSE.-Brigader General
Thomas Francies Meagher has fallen in de-
Tense of his adopted country. One Of the
bright geniuses that loved liberty better than
life. he offered his all on the altar Of freedom
and fell under the banner that he loved
Gen. Meagher was young man Of brilliant
attainments and extraordinary abilities. He
had already distinguished himself as an ora
tor; his cloquence had won him name
among the friends ofhuman progress or those
who sympathized with down-trodden human
ity, He used all his faculties to advance the
cause he loved, and he died fighting nebly
for 1t.
None who have fallen on the battle field
of America better deserve a national cenotaph.

GEN. FREMONT RELIEVED.

The treatment this officer has received at
the hands of the powers that be is the sub
ject of remark throughout the country.
With his trials in Missouri, our readers are
quite familiar, and with his appointment to
the Mountain Department We had expected
new order of things. But we were DOOM
ed to disappointment. No sooner had he
got on q successful tour of operations against
the rebel Gen. Jackson, than again another
change was made which absolutely forced
him to ask to be relieved. He was not only
by this change placed under subordinate
who had been one of his first division COM
manders in Missouri, but under an officer
five grades his inferior in rank. Gen. FIRE.
mont was the ranking Major-G General in the
regular army, next to Mcclellan. Pope,
who Jumped" him, was Captain of Engin-
GERS, and his Major-General rank was in
the volunteer service.
Fremont, it will be recollected, was call
ed from the field of service allotted to him,
known as the Mountain Department, to as
sist Gen. Banks in repelling the rebel Jack
son, and by extraordinary marching had
driven the enemy out of the Shenandoah
valley. Then a portion of his force was de-
tached, we believe, TO support Gen. Shields
Next, new military department was crea-
ted, and Fremont virtually taken from the
field assigned him and placed under sub
ordinate officer. In view of this fact, gem
erous public will attach no censure to FREE
mont for declining to submit to this meas
ure of humiliation.
Of the necessity for head to the opera
tions in the Shenandoah valley, all agree !;
but the manner and circumstances under
which that head was chosen, will be cause
for general regret. Not from any want of
confidence in Gen. Pope, but from the fact
that Gen. Fremont has proven himself a
sterling, persevering and competent officer.
1t would only have been mark of respect
due Fremont, at least, to have ordered him
back to his original command west of the
mountains. Brig. Gen. Rufus King takes
command Of the First Corps of the Army of
Virginia - refused by Fremont.

FoURTH OF JULY.

NEXT Friday will be the eighty-sixth an
niversary Of our American Independence,
and the principles for which our fathers
then fought are now going through the or

the advent Of June was the acknowledged
messenger of time for commencing prepara-

in by the beating of drums and the roar OF
cannon. Old veterans of the Revolution
came forth in the dewy morn Of that day

God for deliverance from the iron heel Of

their many scars, their war.worn features,
their costumes that Freedom flung to them
from the rock-built heights where she bade
them fight for their country, their hammered
emblems, their rejoicing children, their
happy wives all spoke for them in Ian
guage unutterable!
There too, were matrons, whose woman
souls dared all for Liberty! The day the
iron tongue of that old bell announced the
Declaration of independence, three millions
of battling fremen answered its peal a
peal that rung from mountain to mountain,
from lake to ocean, and away up the dark

We have said the principles for which
the early fathers fathers waged war were
again being re-fought. As we pen this ar
ticle, we are electrified by the startling in
telligences of the conflict of arms now rag

Two DAYS, hard Fiehting.

THE silence which has been maintained
for two or three DAYS IN regard to opera
tons near Richmond, is being broken, and
we begin to get intelligence of the most ex.
citing character, although the results are
not yet stated with satisfactory definite.
ness.
BY our morning report we learn that the
n. Y. Tribune this morning issued an ex.
ira. containing a letter dated ION the battle
field" giving an account of two days des-
prate fighting, in which 1875, 900 men (includ
ing both sides, probably) were engaged
The battle occurred on Thursday and Fri
lay last. The imperfect account received
says the attack was made by the enemy in
immense force, who crossed the Chcka-
hominy near the Railroad above Mechanics
vile on Thursday afternoon. They tough t
desperately, but were unable to drive our
men single foot, though the enemy We're
ten to one. The only forces engaged that
day were Metals Division, the battle lasting
from 2 till Q p. NJ, when the Division was
ordered back.
Gen. Mcclellan was on the field, express
ing himself satisfied with the result.
A despatch from the proprietor of the
Baltimore american says he is writing for
his paper detailed account of events at
White House, before Richmond, and on the
Peninsula during the last four days, incud-
ing facts obtained from Washington, hav-
ing been sent for by special train to coz
municate with the President. He adds
1--WE have the grandest military triumph
over the enemy, and Richmond must fall.
| LATEn.--We have this afternoon the
| TifbWne's account of the fighting before
| Richmond, which shows it to have been a
long, desperate and varied struggle; but
leaves the mind in painful suspence and un
certainty as to the results of the contest
The impression seems to be general thai
our forces gained important advantages
and yet there is an indefiniteness which
in view of the past, is not satisfactory.
The War Department announces that uT
to noon to-day it received no intelligence
warranting the belief of a serious disaster
Telegraphic communication has been broker
between Washington and the battlefield.
1t seems that Jacksons army had arrived
at Richmod and took part in the recen
battle. Mondays BLADE.
Last nights Blade contains nothing ad
ditional to the above of particular interest
The exact position of affairs before Rich
mond was still in doubt. 1t seems that tht
right wing of McClellan's army fell bacl
about two miles, and was closely FOLLOWED
by the rebels. The movement of our troop
was apparently satisfactory to General Nc
Clellan. Further particulars will be looket
for with the utmost anxiety. If the sign
indicate correctly, Richmond cannot hol
out much longer.

He Did say Ii.

In an able speech lately made By Mr..
Edgerton, Member of Congress from the
Summit District, upon THE New Conspira-
cy," in the reorganization of the Democra-
cy under the lead of NalIandigham, very
thorough and scathiug review of Nalandig-
hams political record was given, and among
other proofs of his sympathy for treason
the following:
More than that My colleague, during
the dark days of the last session of the Thir-
ty-sixth Congress, when this House was
filled with traitors-when State after State
had gone out of the Union-my colleague,
in my presence, and in the presence OF
others, said, that the troops of Ohio. before
they should march through his district TO
coerce the South, would have to march over
his dead body. True tits, that he denies il
but in that his memory is at fault There
we others who heard it, who are now
members of this House.
As yallandigham had often, previous tu
Mr.. Ell gerton's speech, denied tho remark
attributed to him, this proof Of its truth is
important.

DIsCHARGING PAROLED SOLDIERS.

By a general order of Adjt. Thomas OF
the 18th inst, it appears that those of our
soldiers who have been captured by the
rebels and paroled, and exhibit "satisiac-
tory proof of their being paroled prisoners
of war;" can be discharged from the service
at their own request, otherwise they will
be furloughed until notified of their ex-
change, or they are discharged from the
service. By this it would seem that our
soldiers who have been captured and parol-
ed, must request to be discharged from the
service, otherwise they will not be.
