The Rebels Nominate VaIIaudia'
ham.

The rabel4 have nominated Vallandig
ham for Governor of Ohio. They admire
him because he has from the start been
opposed to the war and in favor OF con-
ceding everything to them. They have a
little the start of their sympathizers IN
Ohio in making the nomination, but, COM
ing from such source, the latter will
doubtless see the propriety Of accepting
and acting upon the nomination. The
Chattanooga Rebel of the 9th ult., after
a conference with Valladigham, says;
ale was received by Col. j. Stoddard
Johnston of Gen. Bragg's staff, and by
him conveyed in carriage to Shelbyville,
where comfortable quarters were provided
for him. There was no demonstration,
but everywhere he passed, those who had
heard of his coming greeted him kindly
and with silent tokens of sympathy and
respect. Mr.. VaIlandlgham
looks cheerful, and seems to breathe easy
on escaping from the Lincoln despotism.
His (Vallandigham's) road,
which lays up the steep ascent OF the flu
ture, is direct and gas lighted all the way.
1t leads first out of confederate port to
Nassau, thence to Canada, and finally to
the Gubernatorial Chair of Ohio. The
return of Napoleon from Elba was the sig
nal for a general reaction in France
Thousands flocked to HIM on the instant.
Nothing could keep the Little Corporal,
bars nor iron, nor prison nor island. lie
stood once more on his native heath. The
superstitious popular heart chung to him,
and he triumphed. Let Mr.. Vallandlg-
hams return be as speedy let the absence
of single month find him issuing an
address to the people of his state, from
Lower Canada, proclalming these things
to them:
Il, loyal citizen of the Union, and a
soldier thereof and of freedom, banished
against law and constitution, thrown con-
trary to my will across the lines of pub
lie enemy, whose refusal TO receive and
recognize me establishes before all men
nv patriotism and honor |, G. L. Val
landlgham, prosecuted, exiled, mobbed,
and coerced by cowardly tyrants and by
bayonets, but not dead nor dumb, issue

oThe effect would be magical" The
Rebel further says, ''his prospects fol

has recently taken place in Illinois, to
fill a vacancy caused by the death OF one
of its democratic State Senators since the

wing Senators stood IL to II, rendering
the election in question an important one.
The result of the election, covering SIX
counties, is given in tabular form IN the
Tribune, with the following result; The
vote last fall in the counties IN question,
gave democratic majority of 2,0O2; IN
this election democratic majority lSl -

says the Tribune, of an important special
election. with the Union triumph at the
late Charter Election in Springfield, which
went heavily Democratic last Fall, and the
result OF the Charter Election in Chicago,
which showed large Union gain in spite
of an immense fraudulent vote, and we
cannot doubt that the action of the pres
ent Legislative, and especially its strong
ly marked sympathies with the rebels, has
revolutionized the state, demolishlng the
late democratic majority.

THE New CWILIzATIoN.-After Gen.
turtles Of what was supposed TO DO pro-
gress towards a right, civilization and a
right basis Of government, - progress
through painful study and often terrible
struggle,-thc world is fatty informed by
the wise mon Of rebeldom that its course
has been ono grand mistake. A hight has
fallen upon them, not vouchsafed to the
Ignorant people of the world at LARGE
They have, it is true, never been remarka-
bic over the rest Of mankind for profound
study, or PIN losophy, This must therefore
be the result of inspiration. How useless,
worse than useless, Gin view of this, have
been the struggles, the sacrifices, the sui.
fenngs of the "perverse generations in
the many years gone by, for the hncied
blessings of free government and mis-
taken ciyilzationn
Read the following from the Richmond
Examiner, and learn what is true civiliza-
ton, what the true theory Of government !;
learn that the " Confederacy F" is " God
sent missionary to the nations, with great
truths to preach" that the world is to be
restored to the good old times when despo-
tism and darkness were rampant when
the people, white, black or yellow,
were slaves, and those only were equals
who had the power to sustain their "equal-
ity," and then appreciate the calamity
which viii befall the world, if the "mis-
sionary " schemes of southern traitors are
nipped in the bud by the blind devotees to
the Union, and to free government and
equal rights, bound up in its maintenance.
Here is an argument for Fernando Wood
and his peace men.
In the course of lengthy article the
Examiner says;

that he forgot to 90 and get married,
keeping his affianced waiting long while
at the clergyman's, and it was not till he
had been called again and again that he
could be reached and reminded of his en-
gagement. "Therep said he, 81 had
forgotten all about that business, but I'll
be there in moment;" and up he came
TO fulfill his promises.
