John: Your cowar0ly aud dIsgraceful
letter is just reclved. You can better
Imagine than | can define my disgust at
receiving such a cont plible and treas-
enable letter from one claiming to be a
citizen Of the American Republic man
raised and educated under the auspices
of the best Government ever enjoyed BY
any people, who has SO degenerated In the
scale OF morality and love of country as
to become an object of contempt rather
than of sympathy. | blush to think that
one of my former associates, who but a
short time since boasted of love for his
country and her free institutions, is to-
day, from motives of dastardly cowardlce,
cnnging in the attitude of supplication
at the shrine of the Southern Confedera.

spirit Of your dreams, that you can thus
meanly repudiate both your God and your

The "Arbeiterbund' or Working

meeting held ON the 2Oth inst, unani-
mously adopted the following;
Whereas, There is party which
calls itself shamelcssly by thonamo Of
the Democratic party, and which as
scrts liberty to be clicentiousncss and an
archy, and that the liberty of the press
is u justified means to undermine tho
free institutions of the people Of tho
Union, and establish n Government
with Slavery as its basis, spreading
treason abroad, and which sympathizes
with the damnable rebellion of the
South, apd provokcs opposition to the
legally constituted Government and
laws; producing dosertion, mobs, mur'
dcrs, and incondiarism.
Among the papers of the disloyal
party, the Cincinnati Polk$treuad is one
that does homage to all this aforesaid,
blamablo tendency in the highest de-
gree, and in spite ofall moral rectitudC
and truth, We as citizens of the Uni
ted States hold that tho liberty of the
press is an essential part ofour liberty
Therefore wo cannot be silent when il
so disgracofnlly, shamofully and dan
gorously abuses this fundamental prin
ciple. ~ . ~
Therefore, be il Resolved, That WI
condemn the Cincinnati VolkStreand, !
which bears the convict traitor NalIan
digham at its head, and we look upor
itas degeneration oftho German press
and declare it TO be a production dc
serving tho contempt Of every loya

We learn from the Athens Messenger
that the gallant Col. Uonnell, ofthe 18th
o. V. l., has received the nomination
for Senator for that district, by the
Union Convention held at Logan on
the oath ult. The Colonel has been en-
gagged for the past two yearsin squelch-
ing the rebellion in the South, and par
ticipated in the glorious victories
achieved over the enemy under Gen
eral Grant. He is the very man for
old Athens to nominate and elect
CrcleriHe Union.
The Union is evidently under the
impression that Col. Connell is an
Athens County man. If so, it is a
wrong impression. Col. ,Connell be-
longs to Fairfield county, resides in
Lancaster, commands the 18th Owl,
most Of which is from this county, and
has been in the service since the out
break of the rebellion. The Union is
also mistaken in saying that Col. Con
nell participated in the victories Of
Grant He participated in the victo-
ries of RoSccr0ns, and is the author OF
the Address Of the Ohio Soldiers to the
People of Ohio, which Murdocll is
reading to admiring thousands.
