En-. JEFF:-The last Courier says
that "Brough's speech in this place
last week, did not suit the Republic
ans. We have heard of three in
Blanchard township who were so dis
gustcd with his speech that they now
support the Democratic ticket" Now,
Mr.. Glessner, if you will and must lie,
and can't get along without it, you
might as well lie about Blanchard as
anything else. Oh, yes, you say that
''we have heard about those three. v
Well, who told you? Was it not that
lying fool of yours, who kept his wife
home last Friday, at work in the har-
vest field binding oats, while he was
at the Vallandigham meeting in Kali
da, for the purpose of reporting to
you, as he said. | hope he told you
all about their load of ladies if they
can be called such that left this place,
representing the States. suppose
he thought that South Carolina and
some others would not be well repre-
sented unless the representatives were
helped in the wagon, and cheered for
JEFF Davis. Mr.. Courier you ought
to send your Blanchard informant to
school and learn him to read and
write, rs then it would not be so much
trouble to report to you. lam afraid
that his memory is treacherous.--
There are no such three men in this
township-not one-not Republican
that heard Brough's speech but was
well pleased. But there are lifelong
and influential Democrats here that
will not vote for the Clifton House,
Canadian Candidate, but will support
the Union ticket.

RESPECTED MOTHER:
The rebellion is pretty near played
out | think the rebels had better
knuclile under rather than fight any
longer, for they must be pretty hard
up by the tone of their deserters. -
JEFF. Davis has called for every man
able to bcar.arms, and has also made
II call for Negro volunteers. He of
fers every negro that will volunteer
and fight the Yankees, his freedom
and eighty acres of land, and pay and
allowance the same rs the white sol.
diers. They call us Abolitionists be,
cause we were freeing the negroes
but now it's tit for tat---if one party
is Abolitionists, so is the other. But
they want to show little fight yet

Flax Stra w

There was a very large amount oil
Flax raised in this county this season
the crop of seed being estimated
at 10000 bushels. We believe there
is, as yet. no market here for the
straw, and some farmers may destroy
it, as in days of yore. This straw
is worth, in places where they have
facilities for making use Of it, from
S5 to $40 per ton, and before the
year has passed there will be mar
ket for it here. 1t costs nothing to
put it in dry place, and it will he
valuable before long. Save your flax

Important Arrests.

Last Thursday morning, the 18th
inst, Capt. John b. May, Provost
Marshal, arrested Jacob and George
Litzenbergcr, Adam Myers and Jas,
DonelsoD, of Amanda Tp., charged
with harboring and concealing desert
crs. They were taken to Lima and
handed over to the civil authorities,
and taken to Cleveland, where they
were released upon bail.
In barn in the vicinity was found
a beautiful place for secreting the
lost sheep of Uncle Samuel, A hole
was made through the hay, through
which the gentlemen could slide on
of concealed door into corn field
upon being alarmed. The business
of harboring deserters is probabl,
broken mp in that vicinity.

THE C0NSCRIPTION BILL.

This bill has passed the House of Rep
resentatives, and is now only awaiting the
concurrence of the Senate on some amend
ments before it shall become the law of the
land. It places the whole militia of the
country under the supreme control of the
President without reference to the authori-
ty of the Governors of the States.
It now remains to be seen whether the
people will submit to law made by a Con-
gress that represents minority of the pop
ulation, and that is unconstitutional in many
of its provisions. For our own part, we do
not believe that it will be obeyed in the ma
iority of the Northern States. On the con-
trary, we regard it as most impolitc meas
ure, and likely to create the most wide
spread disaffection towards the Administra-
ton. 1t is we'll known fact that the draft
was resisted in several parts of the country,
and that the officials of the Government
were not able to carry it into execution
How, then, can such sweeping conscrip-
ton law be forced upon the people when
such strong evidence exists of dissatisfac-
tion with the ruinous policy pursued by the
Administration. If the Presidents procla-
lamation has not succeeded in bringing out
those nine hundred thousand men who were
to have responded to'ts call, there is cer-
tainly little hope that the conscription law
will put new army into the field. Can'it
be possible that the wise Solons of Con-
gress believed that such a bill could. be put
in operation? Some shrewd people insist.
hat they were convinced it could not. Who
are right9 Time and the people only can

Cost of Keeping Contrabands.

$4,000 per day, is the sum which, it
is said, the Government pays out daily, to
support the runaway negroes, called con-
trabands, now within our lines. These
creatures, instead of being employed in
useful and profitable labor on the planta-
tions Of their masters, are now spending
their time in idlcpess, living upon the
charity of the Government. The white
men and women of the North are taxed to
support these now worthless creatures
At the rate of $4,000 per day, the sum
total for one year will be $780, 900 !
Such are tho bitter fruits of the Abolition
policy which has now ruined the country.
The final result of this policy will be, not
tho freedom of the black man, but the en-
slavement Of the white laboring man -
He will be enslaved by the immense taxa
ton wich the Abolition policy has brought
upon the country. It is Taxation which
crushcs and enslaves the laboring masses
of Europe, and binds them hand and foot
to the car of monarchy and aristocracy,
by which they are ruled Abolitionsm,
in its blind and cIazy attempt to set free
o few millions Of African slaves, better off
here in the condition of slaves than in
their native country, has brought the ter

congenial soil Of New England, and
then mako their own separate treaty or
treaties of peace with the South. 1t is
obvious that in the States just mentioned
the Lincoln government is viewed by
large majority as a vile tyranny, and they
may soon come to think its destruction is
demanded by their highest interests
These States will be blind to every motive
of profit and advantage if they do not
adopt this policy. This is their only
mode to escape the burden of a gigantic
debt fastened on their shoulders by New
England fanaticism and cupidity and as
New England has reapcd the profits of the
war, they may conclude to turn over to
her the burden Of payment. Having thus
cleared away the rubbish they may pro-
ccld to found a government which will
give them some promise of stability, or
der, conservatism and peace with tho
Southern Coniedcracy as well as the rest of
the world. 1t is not at all impossible that
this war may finally end by the separate
adoption of these Northern Suites repudi-
ating Lincoln and New England together.
They must soon feel that the old Union is
gone forever, their Constitution rendered
Il by-word and Il mockery by their own
rulers, and in this temper of mind it is ev.
cry way reasonable that they should look
out for their own safety, and not stand
upon nicctics in dealing with the guilty
agents who, to carry out selfish ends, have
involved tham in q ruiuouS ,v,r Tho
thing would be easily accomplished by two
or tbrce States acting together. Ii Illi-
nols aud Indiana, tired of selling corn at
ten cents per bu>hel, should form sepa-
rate treaty with the Confederate govern
ment, it is evident that Lincoln has not
the power to cocrcc them, and the war
would at once break down. They arc
