Important Railroad Arrangement.

We understand, on what we consider
good authority, that a railroad arrange
ment of the greatest Importance to our
citizens and the public generally has tax
en- place. 1t is reported that the Allan
tic & Great Western Railway Company
have leased the Cleveland & Mahoning
Railroad for a term of n~inety-nine years,
guaranteeing a rate of interest to the
stockholders of the latter company that
will probably give a handsome dividend.
The line is to be COMPLETED forthwith to
the Old River bed, where the depot bull
dings viii be erected, and a junction ef-
fected with the Cleveland & Toledo Rail-
road.
1t is also asserted that the Atlantic &
Great Western Railway has quietly be-
come possessessed of the controlling in
terest in the Cleveland d Toledo Railroad
which will put hat road in connection
with the Cleveland & Mahoning Road.
and probably break up the proposed con-
solidation with other lines here. The
stockholders meeting of the Cleveland 4
Toledo Company takes place on the 18th
instant, when tbs course of the Company
in the latter question will have to be de-
cided upon.-CTE. Herald

Cavalry Reconnaissance.

Our cavalry in the vicinity of Somerset,
Kentucky, appear to be kept pretty busy
scouting and accommodating, and they
meet with success whenever the rebels
make a stand. The night of the Sth a
detachment of the I'd and 7th Ohio Cav
airy crossed the Cumberland at Waterloo

and were joined in the morning by de-
tatchments of the I'd Tennessee and 4th
Ohio, under command of Lieutenant Col
onel Adams, at Mill Springs. Skirmish-
ing commenced at s o'clock, and contin-
ued eight miles. The dispatch says our
boys behaved splendidly, and the rebels
could not stand. Lieutenant Laws how
itzer battery did fine work. The rebels
left two dead and ten wounded on the
field. Others were carried off. Twenty
prisoners, one hundred stand of arms, and
100 rounds of howitzer ammunition were
captured. We lost none killed, and but
three wounded-of the I'd Ohio, 7. G..

Farmington Correspondence.

Eds. Uronicle:-Although we have no
railroad facilities, excepting such as are
afforded by the "Clinton Alright" yet
we sometimes move as fast as the general
ity of people, "or any other man." In
proof of this let me say that at 3 o'clock
this A. NJ, our citizens we're aroused by
the ringing of the Seminary bell. At
daylight a number of teams were seer
collecting about the building, and soon af-
or away went students and teachers in
high glee to enjoy a picnic breakfast on
Nelson Ledge. After sufficient rambling
among the rocks to secure a good appe-
tite they sat down, or rather stood up to
a sumptuous repast, spread upon a table
as old as creation itself. Breakfast ended,
a collection of six dollars and a half was
taken up for the benefit of the soldiers,
and placed in the hands of a teacher,
to report at the Union meeting to be held
in the afternoon at Pennington center
Some now repaired t. their homes ; 9th
ers continued their rambling amid the
wild scenery of the place.
At l o'clock P. NJ, a large and enthu-
siastic meeting convened at the town
house. A patriotic speech was delivered
by Rev. C. R. Pattee. A few remarks
were offered by several other gentlemen,
after which a collection amounting to
$50, 81 was taken up for the benefit of
the Soldiers Aid Society. A surplus
bounty fund of SS7,47 was appropriated
to the same Society. So you see, Mr..
Editors, though we live OIL a hard soil,w We
have appreciative hearts, and if Friend
Hutchins will only send us out that daily
mail route which he got through Con-
gress last winter, we shall be obliged to
him. We would sooner have it in the
shape of a wheel barrow branch of the
Atlantic & Great Western than not to
have it at all. Yours for speed. T. Y.

The Democratic Convention.

From the editorial correspondence of
the Cleveland Herald, we clip the follow
in relation to the Democratic State Con-
vention of the Ilth
On the assembling of the Convention
at its permanent organization after din
ner, ex-Gov. Medill was chosen President.
Rules were adopted, one of which was
that the nominations should be by ballot,
but as o as adopted that rule was bro
ken by the terrific yells that responded
to a motion that Vallandigham be the
nominee of the Convention without bal
lot. The Convention, however, reconsid-
cred its determination, and to please the
Cuyahoga delegation, agreed to call the
counties. This was done, but Vallandig-
ham got all save perhaps a dozen votes,
whereupon his nomination was again
made unanimous.
Thus far the marty" ticket went
smoothly, and it was supposed Edison B.
Olds would by reclamation be nominated
for Lieutenant Governor. But that was
more than even some of the Vallandig-
ham men could swallow. To head that
design, ex-U. S. Senator Pugh, of Cincin-
natl, was put upon the stand. The first
part of his speech was distasteful to the
Convention, for he did put a portion of
the responsibility for this rebellion upon
the Southern traitors. Seeing that his
remarks were received coldly, and that
the audience were impatient under any
alluson to the war. he changed his base,
and talked about Vallandigham and his
trial, and delivered certain messages to
the crowd which he represented as en-
trusted to him as Vallandigham's coun-
sci to be delivered to the Democrats of
Ohio. Finally Pugh warmed up and de-
nounced Burnside's Order No. 80, and de-
clared he would tread it under foot, and
if that assertion was treason Burnside
might make the most of it. This met
the sympathy of the crowd and immedi-
ately the yell was raised for Pugh as Lieu
tenant Governor, and he was nominated,
as was Vallandigham, by reclamation.
Thus was Olds foiled and Vallandig-
hams lawyer carried off the second honor.
The martyrs came in for recognition also,
on nomination for Supreme Judge, that
nomination falling upon Van Trump, of
Fairfield, who was the Judge that Odds
relied on in his prosecution of Gov. Tod
and Col. Bliss.
The nomination of Mr.. Knapp, of Ash
land, for Treasurer, was very worthily be-
slowed, for Mr.. Knapp is an honest man,
though an ardent partisan.
Of the resolutions and other matters,
we cannot now speak, for the Committe
on resolutions at this Rriting.(7 o'clock
P. M.)have not yet reported, having been
in session since twelve, at noon. The OBJ
ject, however, is to give the Wa Demo
ceats the platform, the Peace Democrats
having the Gubernatorial candidate.
Yours, G. A. B.

A calm succeeds the Juror of yesterday.
A few of the leaders still linger at hotels
to talk over the nominations.
A rich affair came off on the Camp
Chase Pike. Four wagons full of half
inebriated delegates came up the road
from Columbus, and when opposite Camp
Chase, they yelled for Vallandigham.-
The convalescents, cripples and all, turn
ed out en- masse, surrounded the wagons,
and captured the crowd. made them get
down in the road, hustled them roughly,
and compelled each and all to kneel
down and take the oath of allegiance and
an oath to vote neither for Vallandigham
nor any other rebel. The oaths were adj
ministered by the Sergeant of a Tennes-
see regiment.

CAMP WEAR TRuYNE, Tenn, June 3.
Dear Gronick:-After a %sojourn in and
near Franklin for nearly four months, or
since the 18th of March, the order has
been given, Forward" Accordingly at
5 o'clock yesterday morning our Division
commanded by General Gilbert left the
old camp, near Franklin, and marched to
this place, a distance of twelve miles
We arrived early in the afternoon, pitch
ed our tents in a beautiful, field covered
with nice green grass, and were soon en-
Loving the rest which tired soldiers know
so well how to appreciate.
There had been a good shower the day
previous, and the dust which is generally
so annoying to troops was completely set
tied. Our route lay through the most
beautiful country that l ever saw, Large
fields of wheat and corn were to be seen
at all times during the march. The
wheat will soon be ready for harvesting.
1t looked very promising. The corn was
late; just large enough to commence hoe
ing. There were a few negroes at work
in the fields, but the most of them have
"done gone and run away" leaving their
masters to get along as best they can. l
was surprised to see that there was so
much land under cultivation but l think
that there is no danger that the rebel sol
diers will be benefited by the grain that
is raised in this section.
The fruit crop will be large; peaches
are nearly full grown, and raspberries be
ginning to get ripe. We have been
thinking of petitioning Uncle Sam to di-
vide up the large farms of these secesh
owners and give them to US to settle on
when the war is over. What right-eith-
er legally or morally-haye these traitors
to one, two, or even three thousand acres
of the finest land in the Union +? And
then if we soldiers are allowed by Uncle
Sam, 1--WE shall not ask any n elseJ to
settle in this country, there need be no
fears of another rebellion. We vii lteach
these people the true and fundamental
principles of our government, and in q
short period Of time show them by our
school houses and churches, our work.
shops and our superior skill in the arts,
the great difference which exists between
the land of the free, and the land of the
slave.
The Union soldier feels that he is fight
ing for a great principle, and that if he
fails to establish that principle, then has
all his labor been in vain-then is his
having been a soldier been in vain, then
has all that has made us a great and en-
lightened people been lost to III and to
the generations which follow after us, and
feeling thus, he tolls on earnestly and pa
tiently, knowing that his reward lies at
the end.
We are expecting TO march again to-
morrow, and l presume will soon be more
closely connected with the grand Army
of the Cumberland. Look for stirring
news soon; for when Rosecrans move il
means something. Colonel Opdycke
grows more popular with men and officers
every day. W. have the utmost conf
dence in his skill and daring as a leader.
Our Regiment is now in good fighting
condition. The sick have all been sent
to Nashville. Yours, W.

last week, from the sting of bees. While
working in the garden, one of the chill

Dispatch from Governor Tod.
COLUMBUS, June Ii

COLUMBUS, June 10.
The people of Okio:-Lee's rebel army is
advancing in force upon Pennsylvania,
Western Virginia and the Eastern part
of u own State. To meet this horde of
rebels, the President of the United Safes
has, by proclamation, called out one hun
dred thousand Cl00,0 00) militia for the
period of six months, unless sooner dis
charged. OF this force, thirty thousand
3 0,000)are called from Ohio; and now, gal
liant men of Ohio, will you promptly re-
spond to this necessary call without hest
fancy ? l have assured the President
that you would do so.
Remember that our own sacred homes
are threatened with pillage and destruc-
ton, and our wives and daughters with
insults. To the rescue then at once, and
thus save all that is dear to man. As we
have but few if any regularly organized
companies of volunteer militia, / can but
invite and implore you to duty. The few
companies which have been recently or
ganized are requested to repair at once
with their entire force to the camps here
matter designated. All others will go for
ward in squads. and be organized into
companies, after their arrival in camp,
for which efficient officers will be provid-
ed.
Railroad transportation has been duly
provided and every. provision necessary
for the comfort of the men after their ar.
rival in camp. A reasonable allowance
will be made to each volunteer for his
subsistence when en- route to camp. The
pay and allowance for clothing will be
the same as that of the volunteer service.
Should more respond than the Govern
ment requires, the surplus men will be
returned to their homes free of all ex-
pense to themselves, with the regular pay
for the period necessarily absent.
[Trumbull County troops will render
vous at Cleveland until further orders.
The Military Committees of the several
counties are especially requested to exert
themselves in securing prompt respons
to this call. The troops will all be organ
lied into regiments and well armed be-
fore being ordered into the service. And
now, fellow-citizens of the State, in be.
half of the best Government on earth,
let me implore you to lay aside all other
duties and obligations, and come forward
promptly and cheerfully for the preserva.
ton of all that is dear to US you will
thus secure the gratitude of your chill
dren's children, and the smiles and bles-
sings of heaven. DAVID TOD, Gov.
