Gen.Eohn A. Losan.


b Gen. Logan, a lifelong democrat, a friend
and supporter of Douglas, is doing good
work as a soldier, and true friend of the
Union. He formerly represented a Southern
Illinois District in Congress, but his democra-
scy did not make traitor Of him. He made
grand speech at Garbondale, Ills, a few days
since. We extract a paragraph or two
"If was President I would have no mobs.
The first m,n that raised his hand to resist
the law, l would hang. to til first tree or
lamp-post | don't blame tn, President 70
being more lenient; l only say, what would
do.'' 9ili 7.'ei'' "a
.ro.' don't care what the President does, if he
will only out down the rebellion. If he
could send elephants to trample down the rob
els, 1 would say, amen! And all of you, my
friends. would feel as do, if you had been
down there. Here men will hurralr for ] Jeff.
Davis, and revilc our Gov ernment if arrested.
What do you think would be done with them
if they went down South and hurrahed for
Lincoln or the Union ? Let me tell YOU
Sixty men were in Jail in Vicksburg for hur-
rahing for the Union, one man, sixty years
old, an Irishman, simply because he said be
| thought Grant would take icksburg. Some
men had been confined in jackson Jail more
than year, nearly rotten with filth and dis
ease, because they had voted for the Union.''
"There is a great change taking place in
the issues presented TO you. The test will
hereafter be, were you loyal And men will
be found who will be compelled to defend theiI
loyalty. 1t was so after the Revolutionary
War, and it always will be so; for only men
who are true in war can be depended on"

The rebels south of the Union line, nomi-
mated vallandigham for Governor Of Ohio
The rebel politicians and papers laid out the
plan of his Campaign. He was to go to
Canada by the identical route he did go by
He was to station himself at the Clifton
House or vicinity, and there issue his, address
es to the people of Ohio. This rebel pro-
gramme, dictated in the heart of. the Confed-
eracy, is. being carried out to the letter. The
reader is familiar with all that has SO far trans
pired. Now we have address. .No.,2, sent to
a vallandigham meeting at Toledo: # after
reading that any one doubts that Vallandig-
ham is traitor and rebel, it is because his
sympa.hies are with the rebels and their cause.
To-day single extract is presented Next
week the reader shall have the full address
q aAnd, if We ourselves scorn to yield up
our constitutional rights and liberties to this
monstrous demand, does any honorable man,
arg sane man, ask d, expect the States and people
of the South to surrender so long as q man sur
viUes TO STRIKE Jloa0, or s0onaaa to strengthen
has heart or nerve has arm e''
For a matter Of choice, We should prefer to
have JEFF. Davis the rebel candidate for Gov.
ernor of ohio-but vallandigham mey suit
the southern rebels the best. He is as great
arebe1 as any Of them. and none cah be truel
to the "Confederacy'' and its interests than
he. '4a q =

The election in Kentucky has resulted in
the triumph Of the Union ticket. which is
elected by majority, varying but little from
twenty thousand. BrutusiJ Clay, brother of
Cassius M. Clay is elected to represent the
Ashland district in Congress- by a large ma
jority So in the Louisville district, Mallory
the Union candidate is elected and in the 4th
district Harding has defeated the rebel candi
date. The election of Col. Bramlette for
Governor is splendid triumph. The cleo
tion of Wickliffe, would have. given Ken
lucky to the rebels just as. truly as if JEFF.
Davis had been the man The result of this
election is srecorded joyfully, hopefully The
loyal people of this border State can now look
forward TO better days They will be no
longer polluted with the foul atmosphere Of
secession, and its disregard of rights, liberty,
property and happiness. OF the contest the
Frankfort Common Wealth says
a The issue was distinctly made of .sfno
more men and moneys to fight the war for
the Uniona Every effort known to political
warfare was used to deceive the peopje-false
colors were carried by the enemy, false men,
with specious and plausible. words and speech
es,s Joined in the unhcly effort to divert the
people from their attachment to the Govern
ment and the Union ;oeyery, trick and device
was resorted to, but III spite of all thesethings
and all these influences, the people to-day
stand true to their duty and interest, true tt
their ancient fenown, true to the faith and th'
teachings of their fathers" = ssasi,oss : +.

The Indian TrOubIes.

A Milwaukee dispatch, of the 1st inst, says
that hostile indians have appeared in Juneau
county, Wisconsin, Five Indians, on Satur-
day last, attacked the, house of. Mr. Austin,
four miles from the village, Of New .Lisbon.-.
Mrs Austin was in the house alone, with two
small children. She, proved herself a hero
inc. With a good rife, and the assistance of
a faithful watch. dog, she succeeded in killing
one Indian and severely wounding another,
when the rest took to, fight. The greatest
excitement prevails, and threats of, the total
externination of these, scourges are made.
A st. Paul dispatch, of the 1st, to the Chi
cago Tribune gives. an account of a, desperate
fight with two Indians. a, party o, six far
mers, twelve miles from Forest City, had their
horses stolen on Monday night, In the morn :
ing, fifteen soldiers, who We're patroIIing the
country, found Indian trails, and followed for
ty miles. They came up with and surround
ed the Indians, sleeping on a prairie. The
soldiers fred upon them, wounding both, but
they jumped up and fought desperately
One Indian had double -barreled gun gun 9 and
! fred eight times before he was killed---the
other Indian fred four shots before he, was
killed. Two soldiers were wounded, one
horse killed, and another wounded. The des-
pcration with which the Indians fought, aftel
being mertalIy wounded, was astonishing. A

A few days since y. S. Marshal Sands of
the Southern Ohio District, arrested Peter
Harbinger. Of jackson county, and Edward
Hnes, of Adams county. on charge of pilot
ing John Morgan and his men through the
State Of Ohio during the late raid. Several
affidavits have, been filed against the two men,
one of which states .thatrnot only did Hues
accompany the raiders IN their ride through
this State, but also pointed out who were
Union men as they passed along, and actual
ly shared in the plunder the the thieves sue
ceeded in collecting. The Gazette states that
both the Williams announce themselves to be
"good Vallandigham Democrats" and that
the proofs of their treason appear too strong
to give them much chance of escape.
