is to overthrow this, Ga free,) the best

APPEAL FROM GOV. TOD.

To the Press Of Cincinn0t'
Lees rebel army is advancing in
force upon Pennsylvania, Western
Virginia and the eastern bortion of our
own State. To meet this horde Of rob
els the President of the United States
has, by proclamation, called ont 100 900
MALTA for the period Of six months,
unless sooner discharged. OF this
force 10000 are called from Ohio.
And now, gallant men of Ohio, will
you promptly respond to this ncccssa-
ry call without hcsitancy? | have as
sured the President that you will do
so. Remember that our own sacred
homes are threatened with pillagc and
destruction and our wives and daugh'
ters with insult.
To the rescue then, at once, and thus
save all that is dear to man. As we
have but few, ifany, regularly organ,
lied companies Of volunteer MALTA, |
can but invite and imploro you to du-
ty. The icw companies which have
recently boen organized are requested
to repair at once, with their entire
force to othccamps hereinafter mention
ed. All others will go forward in
squads, and be- organized into compa-
MES after their arrival in camp, for
which purpose efficient officers will be
designated
Railroad transportation has been
duly provided, and every provision
necessary for the comfort of the men
after their arrival in camp. A reason
able allowance will be made to every
volunteer for his subsistence when en-
route to the camp; the pay and allow
ance for clothing will be the same as
that of the volunteer service. Should
more respond than the Government
requires, the surplus men will be sent
home free of all expenses to them

man Vallandigham never voted man
nor dollar to sustain them.
Speaking of the slave power, he de-
MES the aggressions of that power, but
acknowledges his sympathy with it in
the following words;
GIf that power did govern this coun-
try for the sixty years preceding this
terrible revolution, tnen the sooner this
Administratio and Government return
to the principles and policy Of Southern
Statesmen, the better for the country.
The following is his plan for res
toration of the Union. 1t is simply
practical dis Union. 1t is plan to
give the rebels breathing time, and
time to accumulate men and supplies to
renew the war. 1t is virtually an in
vitation to them to invade the North,
after we are disarmed, and unable to
resist them:
"Stop fighting! Make an armistice
no formal treaty. Withdraw your
army from the seeded States. Reduce
both armies to a fair and sufficient
peace establishment. Declare absolute
free trade between the North and the
South. Buy and SELL Agree upon a
Zollverein Recall your fleets. Break
up your blockades. Reduce your Ma
Wy. Restore travel. Open up Rail
roads Re-establisd the telegraph
Rc.unite your Express companies
No moro Monitors and Iron -clads, but
set your friendly steamers and steam
ships again in motion. Visit the North
and West. Visit the South Exchange
Newspapers. Migrate. Intermarry
Let slavery alone"
He acknowledges that what he pro
poses is practical recognition, as fol
lows.
"But certainly what propose is in
formal, practical recognition"

says
Certainly, it is not consistent will

we nave before us tne platlOrm auopJ-

at Columbus. The preamble declares
that the Democratic party has certain
rights, and that said party will exercise
those very rights. To which we have
no objection, excepting the right to op-

Free, and every other FREQ, save free

free speech gives aid and comfort to
our enemies, or stirs up scdition and

constitutional right of tho people to
cuss and discuss the measures Of the
government. Which is sound on the
discuss question, The third, that all
these rights are rights in time Of war ms
we'll as in time Of peace. The fourth,
that they will not submit to violation
of these rights Which is all right,
rights, rights. The fifth that there is a
difference between tho government, and
tho Administration Sound But how
can you help it. Cursing the Judge
and the Jury, will not save a criminal
from the effect of law, Notwithstanding
there is difference between the law and
