Good News fV0ua the Western

Good News from the western
.et Reserve.
The Cleveland (Ohio) Herald, Re-
publican, in a late article, says:
1T is passing strange that in this
great struggle the Western Reserve
should be asleep. But asleep she is.
Will she not awake and rise in her
might? ..
''Copperheads, to-day, boast more
of their strength on the Reserve than
of it at any other point in Ohio. They
count their allies, township by town
ship, and they boast that gains will be
told at the ballot box. What are our
committees, doing? What has been
done toward a thorough canvass of
the townships? We fear nothing
We hear Of nothing, and we end as
we began, by saying that if the Union
cause is lost, and the traitor Nallap
digham elected, the responsibility will
be at the door of the Western Re,
serve
The truth is, the people on the
Reserve, who have been so tenacious
for the personal liberty of the negro,
agree with General Fremont that
President Lincoln has been wrong in
his warfare upon the liberty of the
whites. For very shame they can not
sustain the Administration in this,
they think even white men have
rights! ..s ..... -. ...,.'.....

The Clermont (o,) Sun publishes
letter from a voter in General
Grants division, whichindicates what
the boys intend to do. We here sub
nit an extract, as follows:
awe will have q warm time at the
ballot the coming election. Our Col.
is hot-headed Abolitionist. He is
of the opinion that one negro soldier,
we'll drilled, can whip five white sol
diers. But we will learn him a lesson
worth two of his on the day of elec-
ton. Our rights shall not be trans
pied upon, as is the case in Ohio. We
soldiers are all on an equal war foot
ing, and justice is all we ask, and no.
thing short will be put up with. We
are soldiers, but not to be trampled on
by military despotism. l would ra-
ther leave my bones to bleach on the
plains of the sunny South than be ru-
led by despotic power, and not per-
mitted the privilege of the elective
franchise, and d suffrage to be chosen
according to the dictates of my own
heart-which now is, and shall be, a
straight Democratic ticket, headed by
the victim of tyranny, Vallandigham,
for the next Governor. a

diers' votes as we have in Rosecrans'
Gen. Grant, we believe, has never

The Resources ard Feeling of
the Rebels.


We saw, a day or two ago, a citizen
of Ohio who had just returned from
a six months search through the Con-
federacy for young son, who had
run away from his home and joined the
army of the South. He was through
Virginia, North Carolina, South Car
olina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi
and Tennessee. We know him to be
a very reliable, trustworthy, intelli-
gent gentleman, and can, therefore,
believe what he says, He tells us
that the people Of the South have no
more idea of being conquered by the
! North than they have of being con-
quered by the King of Dahomoy. The
reverses they have experienced since
the 1st Of July they consider as post
poning only, not defeating, the day of
their independence. To a question
we put to him, as to whether the South
was not nearly exhausted in fighting
men, he replied: "The South can raise
an army twice as large as they have
already had in the field, and you will
discover before two months that they
have q bigger army than they have
yet h&d.i'a He then enumerated tho
classes, heretofore exempted from mil
itary duty, that will be required here
after to create new armies. THE towns
and cities are sacpinSIyasfQl Of fight
ing males as our own in proportion to
population, AS to munitions of war,
they have an abundance.
TO the question: "Do they intend
to raise troops among their slaves p
he replied: "Thoy have no idea Of do
ing so. They say they have plenty Of
white men to do their fighting"
lie was at Charleston when Gen.
Gilmore commenced to shell the city,
and left with the rest of the non-com-
batants-about three-hundrcd. The
people had put their houses under the
control of Gen. Beauregard to be used
by him as he pleased, except that he
must not surrender the city to save
their property from destruction. They
left the city never expecting to see
their houses again.
Such he represents the feeling and
condition of the South at the present
time Gin. Eng.

While Mr.. Vallandisham was an
exile in the South, the Cincinnati
CommerciaI published the following:
"Vallandigham, though he never
came heartily up to the support Of the
Government, voted men and money
for the prosecution of the war, a fact
which the Richmond Enquirer remem-
bcrs against him now, and of which it
taunts him while yet a guest at Gen.
Bragg's headquarters"
This is sufficient answer to a great
many lies that now daily appear in
that print.

fssED.
In the late speech Of Ex-Governor
Dennison, delivered at Akron, Ohio,
September y, and reported in the
Cleveland Leader, (Abolition,) we find
the following:
"My friend this morning reviewed
the record of the Democratic leader,
and will not repeat it. lie is man
of ability and experience. 1.-The were
not, we should care little for him.
We fear his talents. The devil him
self would be insignificant were it net
for his brains"
1t is because Mr.. Yallandigham Is
a man of superior talents, and is de-
voted to the Democratic organization,
that this superhuman effort is made tc
break him down inthe public estima.

In his Correspondence with his
Government at home, Lord Lyons,
the British Minister at Washington,
says that Mr.. Seward, then as now
our Secretary Of State, said to him;
My Lord, / can touch a bell on my
right hand and order the arrest of a
citizen in Ohio. | can touch the bella
gain and order the imprisonment Of a
citizen in New York; and no power on
earth but hat of the President can re-
lease them. Can the Queen Of Eng
land in her dominions do as much?
Lord Chartham, of England, said;
The poorest man in his cottage
may bid defiance to all the forces Of
the Crown. 1t may be frail, its rooI
may shake; the wind may blow through
it; the storm may enter; the rain may
enter; but the King of England car
not enter it. All his power dares moi

The great fayorite Of the Abolition>
lists, General Ben. T. Butler, in late
speech in Philadelphia, as reported in
the Inquirer, a Republican print, said:
"You may think it heresy, but, for
one, do not wish the Union rccon-
structed on the old basis. Suppose
you would wake up some fine morn
ing, and learn for fact that all the
rebels had laid down their arms and
consented to return to the Union un>

Democrats say they want the Union
as it was"
Butler don't want the Union recon>
stru,tcd, and would be much distress
cd if he should learn some fine morn~
ing, while reading the paper over his
cup of coffee, that the rebels had
agreed to come back into the Union as
lit was in 1860, He would not let
them in, but would shut the door in
their faces. 1t is only the "honcst
Democrats" according to Butler, who
want the Union as it was, Another
Abolition champion, Hon. Thaddeus
Stevens, of Pennsylvania, in a late
speech in Cheshire, in that State,
said:
"The Union as it was, and the Con-
stitution as it is-God forbid i'll That
may be Abolition doctrine, Tut it is
the right doctrine. y
God forbid, says Stevens, that we
should have the old Union and Consti,
tuition. These are the orators of the
Union party, which acuses Democrats
of being opposed to the Union.

gy-We heard Republican, yes
terday, say that he would like to have
Brough seized by the military and
confined until after the election, or
sent into Canada to keep Vallandig-
ham company, for he was doing the
Ada inistratlon party mischief by his
speeches, and his absence would be
its gain. The main complaint against
Brough was, that he was constantly
throwing up to the Wings their oppo-
sition to the war with Mexico, tell.
ing them virtually that they were
fools and traitors then, and that they
now acknowledge it by running him
as their candidate for Governor. He

HGg~ All the great victories Of the
war have been in spite of the Admins
tration. Lincoln's letter to Gen.
Grant admits it. Thus it is. AboIi-
tion rules at Washington, and whcrey-
cr it can reach, it palsies the army
But where the army is unfettered by
this perniciou8 influence, it wins. Put
the Democrats in power, and we'll
soon send AboIitionism scampering a
way from the Capital, and then the
Union will spring up again.
