Fever persog#as "fleeihe fI0p tbe,
wrath to come," our Abolition ,eplempora-
ry is in that business. Realizing the mis-
cry his doctrines have brought upon the
people, he has ceased rejoicing at their ca
lfamity, and now, cowardslihes.seelrs..tO
eyade the just responsibility of his paryis
action. No, sir, the people know who is
responsible for thedraft, as well as the high
taxes and negro legislation which aflict
the country, They know that had the ad-
vice Of Mr. Vallandigham been followed,
there would have been no draft, no civil
war, no high taxes, mo divided Union
They know, too, for the sad experience of
the past has, been an Instructive teacher,
that the suicidal course pursued by those
in power--thatjust such an Abolition pol.
icy as that now advocated BY the Dayton
journal, and, enforced by Abraham Lin
coin is what rendered the draft necessary.
You can no longer gull the people. They
are fully as well posted, and much more
honest than yourself =. aao -a.'tI .1a
&C. L. Vallandigham is responsible for
the draft" in this county, is heg We be-.
lieve there are but ten counties out Of the
eighty-eight in the State, which are exempt
from draft. Among those which are not
exempt, are most Of the Abolition counties,
Each of these counties would give alarge
majority against Mr.. Vallandigham and
for Abolitionism. Who is responsible
for the draft in these counties, Mr. Vallans
digham, or, this Abolition Administration? |?
Butler county isamongthe few which have
filed their; quota, and is a county in which
Mr.. Vallandigham is more popular and
has more influence than any other man,
and yet there is no drafting there, There
is to be or has been draft in every North
ern and Western State, save perhaps one!
Who is responsible for it, this Abolition
Administration or Mr.. JVallandighsuf? In
FConnectcut, the drafted men paid no re-
Fspect to the law, and we expect that the
l.Abolitionists will, in their desperation, next
4 charge this upon Mr., Y. sI 4
But let us look at home moment.---
! Who are these men who charge the'respon-
Isibility of the draft upon Mr. Vallandig7
ham? Abolitionists each and every one
lof them, who have for years worked and
voted to bring on these very troubles. A
draft has taken place in Montgomery coun'
lily. Why? Because enough men did not
lSolunteer to fill up the county's quota. n Il
lis recorded fact that there are about foui
!, Thousand voters in this county opposed t
Mr.. Vallandigham,, all of whom We're wa
men, and over whom he could exercise M
influence. Why did not they volunteer
They favored the war, and ought to haV,

would have saved the necessity for a draf
