No Dran In Ohio.

The indications now are that there will be
no draft in Ohio under the late call Tor sthree
hundred thousand more victims. This is a
new dodge of Lincoln, Tod & Co intended to
influence voters at the coming election. They
are only delaying what they dare not under
take to do at present. Let the people be
warned in time, vote against Brough and Draft
and in favor of Vallandigham and Liberty

By MRS. A. c. GnAyES.

A mournful cadencesaoats upon the air,
Andlow, deep signs make sad the passing
breeze;
The joyous bcaming of the daylight, fair,
Falls dulled and dimly thro' the naked trees
There is no warmth within the cherries walls,
The are-lit hearth burns with m~ocking glow;
Each lightsome word, or careless lootstep falls,
In painful contrast with the spirits woe.
'Tis thus when Death tears from our clinging
grasp,
The dear ones that we hold in fond embrace;
Unncrvcs the hand, affection loves to clasp,
And stamps his image upon form and face.

report Of The Journal we quote;
Abiding to himself, he had> been

as he preferred another one; but he
could lay his hand upon his heart and
say that he had rewarded no mar
because he was his friend, or withheld
appointment from any man because Of
personal dislike.
Tue cause, he said, is above all per-
sonaI or political considerations, and
the mar who, at Il time like this, can
not sink such considerations, is un-
worthy Of power. In conclusion, he
said our prospects are bright. Fill up
your regiments, and let us all lock
shields and stand together, and in the
end you viii enjoy an amount Of pros
periy you never could attain connected
with the Yankee nation OF eXtortion-

and Withdrew t.deafoning cheers.
Hon. W. Il. Yancoy was then loudly
