Following Good Advice.

The following letter is significant. Itpre-
sents but one case Of thousand existing in all
parts of the State. The fathers and brothers
of our brave soldiers are daily receiving letters
from the army similar TO the one here spoken
of; and the good advice thus given will be fol-
lowed by those at home who care for the absent
ones;
Mn. EDITOR: wish to say through your pa
per that have a son in the army, and cheer
fully gave my consent for him to enlist, in or
der to put down the rebellion which existed in
our midst. l will also say that have always
been Republican, as have also my three sons
who are at home with me. We have letters
from my son in the army, saying that "ff you
could see your frst,born waaing in the mud
half-leg deep, with sixty pounds upon his back,
with nigger by his side on horseback with
his gloves op, you would never vote the Repub-
lican ticket again. and We have taken heed to
his advice, and we have oil voted tho Republi-
can ticket for the last time. We shall oil of
us vots the Democratic ticket next spring
We are satisfied that the Republican rule will
never bring peace to our distracted country.

The HoUsE was opened with prayer by the
Rev. Mr.. Goodwin. The following new bills

The wUnion ~ Demonstration on Tues
day.

The leaders OF the soc.led "Union" party
of Ohio had for some days put forth extraor'
dinary efforts to get up big meeting in this
city, on Tuesday. Ii was advertised that "a
triumyirate" Of Governors would be here, to
grace o occasion with their presence, and al
dress the expected Thousands, and that there
would be q grand milit,'y display under the
immediate command of Governor TOP AS
surance was given, that the railroads would
bring people in at half fare; ann sundry other
inducements we're presented to ineure large
attendance. Governor JOHNSON, Of Teunee,
see, srrived on Monday night, before he
was expected. Tuesday came, and with
it snow storm that continued
throughout the day; but the people
came not. A number of Republican politicians,
from points along the principal thoroughfares
of travel, were here; and the military display,
made by several companies Of infantry, caval.
~, and artillery, wac q success salute of
one hundred guns was fred on the State House
Square, between one and two O'Clock in the
afternoon, iu honor of the arrival of Governors
MORTON and WMeHT, Of Indiana. At two
o'clock, the speaking commenced in the Hall
of Representatives, which was we'll filled, by
ladies, citizens, and soldiers.
Lieutenant-Governor STANTON made short
reception speech, welcoming Governor ANDREW
JOHNSON, of Tennessee, to the capital Of Ohio.
Gov J then took the stand and spoke three
hours. The tenor and texture of bis speech
we're conservative. He reviewed the history of
the rebellion, and defended some of the acts Of
the Administration; claimed to be Democrat
STILL but deprecated party action and party strife
during the war; was for the Constitution, the
Union, and the Government, against oil who
would oppose them or destroy them. Gov.
JoHNsoN's speech was an able one; but we by
no means agree with him in all that he said.
In the evening, Speaker HUBBELL, in few
welchosen words, welcomed Ex-Governor
WMeHT to Ohio and to its capital The Hall
of Representatives was about two-tbirda full,
and the Ex-Governor proceeded so speak.
We heard him about on hour and half, when
our duties called US away He was speaking
when we left. His speech, 30 for as We heard
it, was chiefly in defense of the Administra-
tion. He justified lie acts of arbitrary power,
and only fsQnd fault with It for not going far
enough in t3at direction. He was frequently
applsuded by the Radicals who were present.
The object Of this meeting is understood to
be &otold: lst, To sustain the Administra-
tion in its present policy; and %, To bolster
up the so.called "Union" party In Ohio.
All efforts to reinvigorate that party will
fail. The people have tried 1t once; but they
will never try 1t egain. The Democracy will
defeat 1t overwhelmingly next fall, in whatever
guise or under whatever name it may appear.

The Abolition secessionists of Indiana


The indianapolis Sentinel Of Saturday, in
speaking of the secession Of the Abolition
members from the Indiana House OF Represen
tatives, and thus blocking legislation in that
State, says:
These absconding gentlemen assign no reason
for this willlul and criminal absence from their
seats 10 the House, but there are vague rumors
that they fear that the Democrats intend to
pass the militia bill now pending in that body,
a measure perfectly innocent in itself, and the
prominent features Of which are that it confers
the right upon those enrolled under it to elect
their own officers COMPANY and regimentaD,
and reserves to the General Assembly its con-
stitutional right to cay in what manner Major
Generals and Brigadier Generals shall be ap.
pointed. n
This is the plain story, and if these Repubi-
cans are afraid to trust the fighting boys with
the selection of their own officers, and the Rep.
resentstives OF the people with their iDcontesti-
BILE right OF passing wholesome and sAlutary
laws, the Democrats are not. Whenever the
minority shall aim to overturn legislation by
acts of revolution, they will place themselves
in the same category with Mr.. Jefferson Davis
and his confederstes in crime against Constitu-
tions and laws

nisl, his seat In the House of Lords.
II has sometimes occurred In the history of
Great Britain that the marriage Of the heir ap-
parent, and his separate establishment, have
introduced disturbing influence into the poll
tics of the state. Prince Frederick held rather
o pleasant court at Leicester House while his
grim parent dwelt austerely at Kensington, en-
vironed by the most ponderous bores in the
kingdom, The nuclei Of parliamentary oppo-
sition gathered.about the heir; restless and am
bilious politicians in the drawiDgrooms of the
monarch in posse found some compensation for
their exclusion from the grim court of the sov-
ereign in esss. No such result bids fair to flow
from the marriage of the present heir. He will
in all likelihood be, even when he ascends the
throne, ss hls mother has been, tranquil, de-
corous sovereign, content With tho shadow,
while his ministers and Parliament possess the
substance of power.-Nep York World.

The Abolition Disunion Leagues.

The Abolitionists all over the country are
organizing what they call "Union Leagues" ="
Their objects are, ss svowed by the papers who
advocate their formation-to unite and strength
en- the Abolition faction; to put down the "cop-
perheads," as they call the Democrats; to sus-
tain the Administration in its schemes of uni
verssl negro freedom, and TO supply our soldiers
in the field with Abolition books, pamphlets,
speeches and newspapers.
These partisan organizations, in order to
blind and deceive the people, are nick named
"Union Leagues" II is as If an association
of infdels should call itself "Chriatan" The
gettersup of these Leagues" have no more
faith 10, or regard for the Constitution than
Ton PAINE had for the Bible. They care as
little for the Union as he did for the Christian
Religion. He had some sort OF a belief, or
ekepticsm rather, which he worked hard to
make the world receive; so these Abolition
Lesguers have On indefinite scheme Of govern
ment or plan Of some "New Union," being
little else, however, than an entire want of faith
in the "Old Union," to which political skep.
ticiSm they ere determined by fraud or force to
make everybody in this country yield an uncon-
ditional assent.
The most seductive means are to be employ.
ed to draw unsuspectiug men Into these Dis
union Leagues, and make them sworn brothers
with such men ss GARRISON, PHLLrPs, BEEcHER,
CONWAY, LovEJoY, GREELEY, and all that radi-
cal tribe. And this is to be done-we must in
truth add that it is now being done-under the
preteuse that these Abolition associations are
not partisan, but formed Of men of ell parties
for the support of the Government and the
Union. This is a gilded bait; but it has been
80 often nsed, and the Abolition hook 30 plainly
appears, that we think but few gudgeons will
be caught. These Leagues, as every man of
sense must see, if he reflects a moment are
formed for the sole and express purpose
Of carrying out, by means of fraud and the
military arm, the most stupendous partisan and
sectional schemes that the bitterest enemy of
our Union and National Government could have
devised.
