II it WIRE not for the evidence we hav,
OF the conspiracy Of the leaders of tn,
Democratic party. and their identity will
the late raids and riots, we might reason
ably hope that thewicked rebellion wa,
near its end. Our recent victories have
been sufficient, we should think, to clusl
the expectations Of the rebels in arms,
and to induce them to give up the con
flict. Yet we know that they still feed
on the hope that their allies in the North
may be able, through fraud or otherwise,
to obtain the control Of our government,
in which event they might bargain for
peace upon their own terms. We can
not. therefore, look for an honorable ter
mina.ion Of the war. until the democrat.

oughly beaten through northern ballot
boxes. 1t behooves, then, the lovers OF

great conflict which is impending at the

SIR "A copy
Of the Democratic Union, of the 93d, o
July, having found its way in camp, ant
carefully read by the soldiers of Co. F
l23d 0. V. l. l will try and tell you a,
best can, what the soldiers Of, Wyandot
think Of Bob, and those men who are
trying to make the people believe tha,
Vaandigham is all right, although,
think it is impossible to make the major.
ity in Ohio think SO, for the history is be
fore all, and all can read. 70 ....
In the first place Bob. says, that Val
landigham is all right and every one tha.
don't support him is wrong, We think dit
ferently, we think any man that will sup
port ValIandigham.is a traitor to his coun.
try, and would like to see the South gain
its independence.
In the next place Bob jSstifes the peo-
pie IN resisting the draft. He says con
cernng the riot in New York, it was
nothing m IRE than tho people asserting
their rights, and resisting the laws of our
Government this he seems to lhink every
true Vallandigham man will do, We think
so too, and do believe every man that
is Union man will, when drafted shouI
der hls gun An! march into the field with
out n murmur, but on the other hand ev.
cry coward and traitor will resist the
draft.
Now | would like to have BIB show me
one place in his paper Of the 2 I'd, where
he sympathises with the Northern Sol,
diers, that are now in the field undergoing
all the hardships. subject to camp lie
| believe if the boys were at Upper San.
dusky to-day, Bob's power Of speech
would be stopped, for they say he encour-
ages mobs and riots, and they think they
would be justified in taking down his tent,
and making him pitch it farther South,
where Improperly belongs, we were OH
Bell Island "a days and had a chance Of
reading the Richmond papers: every day,
but never read an article in one, that
was quite SO hard on our Government as
Bobs is, of the Esd, the only hope the
South has. is the resistance of the draft
by the North, and that is what Bob is try

JOHNSONS FAMILY ATLAS.

We would call the attention Of our readers
to the following, from the pen of one who
knows what good Atlas is. Mr.. Smyth wrote
his opinion Of Johnson's Atlas after examining
il side by side with the best English works one
of which sold at fifty guineas.
Office Of Ohio State School Commissioner, |
Columbus, July 1860. J
have carefully, examined Johnsons New
illustrated Family Atlas. Inmy opinion, il has
no superior in the way of accuracy and general
excellence Both the plan and execution are
such as to secure my hearty Approral. Icom-
mend it to the favorable consideration of the
public, confident that it is worthy of general
patronage. -, ANS0N SMYTH.
After having the atlas on his table for nearly
three years, Mr.. Smyth writes: Subsequent
and repeated examinations of this work hare
increased my estimation of its rare value. 1t
is the best Atlas within the limits Of my ac-
quantance, and l cordially renew my former
recommendation. ANS0N SMYTH.
State School Commissioners.
Since the above was written by Mr.. Smyth
this noble Atlas has been sastly improved, and
is now far in advance of any othee'" work OF the
kind. We hope every intelligent man IN rue
county will take occasion to examine and pro
cure this necessary addition to any library

for this Atlas, will give all an opportunity Of

Daring ExpIOit--FOuF Men Sur

Kill Five Men and Capture
Thirty One Horses with all
Their GUNS aud Clothing.
SOMERSET, KY, May IL.
One Of the most daring aud success
ful exploits of this war was performed
by four men on Saturday night, May l.,
on Rock Greek, in Wayne county. Benz.
Burk, a citizen, Hudson Burk, dis
charged soldier, James Burk, of VOL
ford's cavalry, and another citizen named
james Davis, having received intimation
of band of twenty eight men, under
command of Capt. Evans, of the famous
band of rebel robbers that infest Wayne
and Clinton countiesof this State known
as Champ Ferguson's men, having stop.
ped dt the house of Jonathan Burk to
spend the. night determined to attempt
their capture. Four men against tweu-
ty.eigbt fiends who had revelled in the
blood of innocent peighbors for year
think of it 1t seemed like madness,
yet the attempt was made. Coming to
q sentinel, who stood watch over their
thirty.one horses, Davis ordered him to
surrender his gun, which the coward did,
and received in return blow that knock
ed his brains out. The way was now
clear to the house, where the remainder
of the party were asleep, Surrounding
the dwelling, they at once raised hid
eo9s yell, crying "Wolford, Wolford, " at
the top of their voices. The rebels,
awakened by the noise, supposed at once
that Wolford's cavalry, whom they dread
as they do death, was upon them, sprang
from their beds, leaving their clothes
and guns behind, and rushed for the
doors. Out they rushed with nothing
on but shirts and drawers, some without
the latter even, to take leg.bail. Hud'
son Burk met Captain. Evans az the
door; both fred at the same time. BurE
was slightly wounded in the head, but
the infamous Evans was Instantly killed
-Four others were slain, the remainder o
the party escaping. But they abandon
ed everything; all their horses, personal
property, guns, and several thousand
dollars in greenbacks, in addition to Q
considerable amount of Confederate
money. Nothing remained for the vic
torious few to do but to gather up the
fruits of their victory; that they divided

soldiers, Doctor Shaw promptly offered
bis services, and If we mistake not, he
proceeded at his own expense to one Of
the battle fields to proffer bis assistance
to the wounded and dying soldiers.
And yet these are the men whose
houses are to be stoned without wonder,
in order to CRAFTY partisan hostility.
We forbear saying more at present,
but repeat the words of warning we pub.
lished some weeks ago, as follows:
AWOrd of Warning.
A portion of the Republican leaders
in this eolnty are doing all they can to
foment a civil war at home, and array
one set Of citizens against another ia
strife and bloodshed. Some of these
men have no property to be destroyed
but there are others who have property
and if they have no regard for political
opponents, they ought to remember thai
in times of tumult they may become tht
victims, instead of the ;ndiscreet mer
who are forming political leagues anG
going round calling Democrats traitors
and other epithets. These are time
when it behooVes every good citizen tt
use his utmost influence for the mainte
nance of order, instead of melting, by hi
acts and words, i'll feeling, hatred and ;
spirit of revenge among men. We eau
tion the Republican leaders to bewar,
ere it is too late.
To our fellow Democrats, we woulC
say, be discreet aud give no cause for al
outbreak. Let us all mass ourselves
like great army of patriots behind ou
principles, and await events. By pru
dent reserve we can do more than in on,
other way, to disarm our enemies, emf
this calamitous var aud restore TIN
Union.
