The testimony of Col. Sherman is

AS to the character Of the meeting
Bucyrus on the 9th Of October; the
shouting Of the men who composed it
for JEFF Davis aud Beauregard; their
violent treatment of Union men, their
calling for Hall and Jackson to make
them speech, as they had promised;
their often repeated declarations to
resist the draft, etc, etc, are all full
" corroborated by w. c. Lemert
Benz. Eaton, A. NJ. Jones, Martin
Deal, NJ. C. Archer and others. Eat
on Saw Tuttle post up the placard be
ginning, 'Resistance to tyrants is pat

The drafted men whom Hall en-
deavored to persuade and did per
suade not to respond to the draft
are all either in the army or fed thu

Arbitrary Arrests.

The Democracy have howled loud
and long against Arbitrary Arrests
and the cases of Hall and Tuttle have
been cited as evidences of the Unjust
ice of the Administration. The fol-
lowing is the report of the Investi-
eating Committee. Hall and Tuttlc,
as will be seen, were injured inno-
cents:
Lawrence W. Hall was placed un-
der arrest whilst in Camp Mansfield,
on or about the 10Th day of October,
1862. and was discharged on the 9th
day Of November following

My DEAR FATHER EDWARD: The
rebels grabbed the last letter wrote
YOU, hut they. will draw very little
consolation from It's contents
am happy to see the splendid
stand you took in the Telegraph
against slavery, with its horrors, bar
barbarities aud base immoralities.--
Slavery is dead. Nothing can resus-
itate it, TO learn this fact fully, you
should pay us Il visit. There is not
negro in the South who does not
know he is free. Around here, they
squatted on the plantations: mnd re-
fuse to work for any one but them
selves. They have sown little crops
of their own, and the masters have
ceased to exercise any control over
them.
As an indication / will cite strong
case The lady ot the house whore
nm staying, attempted to punish one
of her negro women this morning. l
had to step in to save the mistress
from being badly used up, as the dar-
KEY was belahoring her with the stick
intended for her own punishment
''EE uno disce omnes." 1t is needless
for me to say that I applaud every
sentiment you have expressed in the
Telegraph. Your course is that of the
prudent navigator, who, Watching the
black speck on the horizon, sees it
expand into portentous storm, and
calls up his crew to take in sail and
prepare for the contest with the cle-
ments. The storm will pass away
and YOU will he found sailing under
full sail. while those who took not
heed viii be scattered by the gale.
! l am heart and hand with you in
! this carSe. Slavery is doomed. and
hose who would now uphold it will
