Four Years of the Pilot.

This number is the commencement Of the
Fifth Year Of the Nanitovoc Pilot, and
IN announcing the fact we feel tha. we
have more than ordinary reason for thank
ing the public Of this and tie adjoining
counties for the many acts of kindness
shown, and the generous support rendered
US since our location in Mansov oc. We
came here comparative stranger, unac-
quainted with nearly all of its citizens,
and with but very little capital except a
fair amount Of energy. honesty Of purpose,
and the intention TO DO right. The Pilot
was started with only the confidence and
support OF few personal friends, while its
enemies could be numbered by hundreds

We have borne many trying trials since
our residence here-mahy jeers and many
rongs-aA Of which did not come from
the opposition party; but We believe we
are correct in saying that as far As the
Pilot is concerned to-day, it has not one
eDsmy in The ranks Of the Democracy,
while many Of It's political opponents are
free 10 give It credit for consistency in its
principles and watch(uness Of the Interest

all earnest and active support Of Demo
cratic principles. We have faithfully en-
deavorei to fulfill the pledge, and no bet
ter proof can Ae shown than the band
some majority which the Dem ocracy pos,
sess in the c"unty--its thorough organj-
zation. and the union, harmony, and good
feeling which exists among its members
If we have aided in the good work, we
have only performed a pleasant duty

This is the bloody suggestion Of one now

Vallandigham, twin conspirators against

devilish efFrOntry, they proclaim their de-
termination to contest the soldiers vote,
if it be cast against them, and IF THE

to call a Convention of Copperheads TO

The New York Tribune publishes cal
culation upon the vote Of Pennsylvania
next Tuesday, by which it estimates Cur.
tins majority at 19, 200. 1t says that the
absence of the soldiers, whereof seven
eights we're republicans, and nine-tenths
are now heartily for Curtin, will just
about neutrslize Curtia's majority of
Thirty two Thousand in 1850; but the
War Democrats who opposed him in 1860
and now heartily support him will nearly
make up the loss. We're every soldier at
home to vote, his majority would be Fifty
Thousand but ss the case stands, it
will probably not exceed Twenty thou
sand being just about the number of
returned soldiers, invalids, ci,, gLo sill
be on hand to give him lift at the polls.
We trust that this estimate may not be
under the true result, and that the loyal
lists of Ohio may unite with those of her
sister State on Wednesday next in CEN
gratulstions for having forever put at rest
any fears Of Copperhead and rebellion

Duties of the Police

We have no desire to become a diots' Or
to our very efficient City Marshal, regard
ing the responsibilities of his force upon
election day, but cannot refrain from pub
fishing the following extract from the Pre-
clamation CT Mayor Harris of Cincinnati.
Having ordered the closing of saloons, and
offered reward of one hundred dollars to
any person who will cause to be arrested
and convicted any fraudulent voter, he
adds these excellent directions to tie
police force:
" At the polls you will keep the peace at
all hazards. Citizens must not be driven
from the polls. 1t is their privilege to vote
and electioneer for the ticket of their
choice, and they must and shall be protected
in SO doing.
"You will not take part in any discus
sions, nor will you interfere to prevent the
same among citizens but when it is clear
to your mind lhst breach of the peace is
