"a We have received communiea-
ton from Sergeant G. B. Green, of the
25th Indiana regiment, now at Memphis,
sharply criticising the Wadesville Con-
vention. We do not publish it because
the doings of that Convention have been
endorsed by majority of the people of
Posey county, and we sympathize too
much with the loyal Union men, who
struggled to avert the disgrace that has
been brought upon the county, to circu-
late their defeat any further abroad than
can be avoided. The least said about it
the better. We are glad to know, how
ever, that before another election Ser
geant Green and his companions will
have an opportunity of talking face to
face with those individuals who cast
aside federal officer as unfit for Dem
ocratic candidate, while they gave their
sufrages, in convention, to an Individual

To the Citizens Of VanderbuPgh
County.

You have been told, through our news
papers, that this county has done nobly
in the way of volunteers for our army,
and you know that those brave men have
left their families, friends and homes, for
the purpose of protecting you in your
rights.
You also know that many families are
in our midst who will suffer, if some pro-
vision is not made for their relief. Many
cases of want have been brought to the
writer's knowledge. 1 will cite one
amongst the many cases of distress.
The writer has been handed note from
the wife of soldier, which says.s Is
there no way in which / can get help2
My husband was in the army, and is now
dead. l have four children, none of
them large enough to help me or them
selves. Please do something for me-"
In cases such as quoted, the liberal
hearted give and give all the time; but
there are many, very many, amongst US,
who button their pockets the tighter
when appealed to for reliess. They say
they did not bring on this war; they did
not persuade this or that one to enlist;
and when yurTask them if they have not
prospered in their business, they tell you
that is none of your business. But they
viii not give a cent
You still urge them to give, telling
them that our soldiers, whose families
you are asking aid for, are protecting
their property. They tell you, again, it
is not their war, and you have to leave,
sorry that there are such mean people.
Citizens, there is one, and only one
way that these mean creatures can be
made to aid their fellow men in distress,
and that is by appropriations made by
your County Commissioners and your
City Council. Then the burden comes
equally on all, each man paying accord
ing to his ability, and these mean ones,
whose hearts are of stone, are made lib
eral.
/ want the people of this and every
county in this State-I mean the liberal
the kind-hearted the feel-for-another' s
woe people-to rise with one accord, and
make it their business, for one or two
days, to circulate petitions to the County
Commissioners, City or Town Councils
to make, of the peoples money, liberia
appropriations to suecor distress wher
ever it is found, so that none in our Stats
shall be hungry or cold. That all ma,
be made truly religious, and undeflet
before God, let the fatherless and wild
oWs be visited in their afliction, an,
thus keep themselves unspotted from tn
world. Citizens, the cold winter is neal
provisions of every kind are high, an
fuel is high. Work, work earnestly, wor
with will, so that all sufferers may b
made comfortable, if not happy.
Circulate your petitions. Speak i
words not to be misunderstood to you

The Miners COUnterblast.

! The Manager, in his last communica-
ton, endeavors to destroy the force of
our "Reply" by ridicule He says that
mining is not more dangerous to life and
health than carpentering or masonry,
&c. If anybody is so ignorant as to be-
ieye this statement, we have only to ad-
wise him to try it experimentally The
noticeable fact that the laborers who
work under ground and are exposed to
the gases, &C., aforesaid, are paid only a
trifle more than those who work above
ground, is the Managers strong point.
Unfortunately for him this noticeable
fact" is not fact at all. The laborers
who work below are not exposed to the
"gases aforesaid" in which the miners
work. The duty of these laborers is
simply to drive the cars from the cham.
bers in which the miners work to the foot
of tie shaft, and these laborers are, con-
sequently, in pure air nearly all the
time. The statement of E, Reeves ac-
count is incorrect in fact, in this: that
he paid on the last day but one of Au.
gust S. for keg of powder, so that his
account, in fact, was 81 kegs, or nearly
instead of g kegs, and, his net receipts
about $75, instead of $S0.17. The Man
ayers calculations are at fault. 1t is
wrong to calculate by the per centum, ai
he does. The unit of the calculation i:
bushel of coal. Look at this a mo
ment: One year ago coal was cents
and the miners got q cents; now it IL!
cents, and the miners get A cents. 1
appears that at 7 cents the Manages
could make money. How much does h
make at III cants? Deducting 4 from
III we have u, SO the Manager actuall,
receives now, over and above the amour
paid the miners, more by ] cent for eacl
bushel than he got for his coal one yea
ago. When he paid the miners p cents
he lad A cents left for other expense
and profits. Now he pays the miners
cents, and has y cents left for profit
and expensesl These expenses have nc
materially increased since 1862 =. He
now clearing 3 cents per bushel NOR
than he ever made before, and is maxim
nearly twice as much money as he eve
made before-in the proportion of Il t
4 cents more
An increase of II cents on the miner
wages does not represent the same rati
as an increase of cents on the profit,
As the mine is Low making nearly twic
as much as in October 1862, it shoul
pay twice as much to the miners, for th
reason that this excess of 8 cents
clear gain Or nearly so to the mine, owe
and above its gains of last year, an
while the expenses of the mine have br
slightly increased, the expenses of th
miners and their families have enormous
ly increased. The manager is very muc
mistaken in his allusion to Bellevill
The miners there make more now wor
ing on half time than we do on who
) time, because they get 5 cents per busl
ell, and work in FIVE foot vein and hay
very little blasting to do. The reaso
that they work only half the time is thu
