County.

We are led to copy the following local item

citizen readers:

TIE correspondent OF the Commercial WI
ting from Springfield, says Of the Champaign
Lancers:
" A body 500 spearsmen. on horseback from
Champaign County, made fine disply whom
Chaplain Collier, of the 34,h Ohio Infantry,
in his speech, said ought to have been in the
army with some weapons more effective than
in spears"
Now, il is the general impression " in these
parts" that if all Champaign county was in the
army and injured the enemy no more than
Chaplain Collier has, tlsis rebellion would last
several weeks longer. His weapons are not
very effective.
