The AprIi TounshIp EIec,ion,

The Columbus Statesman, Crisis, Gin
cinnati Enquirer, and Democratic organs Of
the State generally, are urging upon the peo.
pie the Importance to their party Of Carrying
politics into all the township elections this
spring. They urge a strict party organiza-
tion and tickets from road Supervisors up to
township Trustees, and exhort full vote
in view Of the important State contest next
October. m
Such being the fact, every loyal voter has
a duty TO perform. Every man who has a
relative or friend in the army, should re-
member that the ballot-box in April will
speak encouragement or discouragement
to the brave soldiers away in distant SER
vice. They have spoken their loyalty and
devotion to the country aud its cause by
deeds as well as words, and they will hold
no Union man guiltless who fails, without
good reason, to discharge his duty at the
April election.
AT this crisis old party feuds and ami
mosities must be laid aside, and true men
and patriots stand shoulder to shoulder in
support of the Union and the government.
Former party antecedents are nothing now
the existence of the Republic is what all
have to vote for and to fight for. See to it,
loyal men of Sandusky that disloyal SYM
pathisers are everywhere rebuked through
the ballot-boxes. Such response to the
appeals from our soldiers in front Of the
rebel foe, viii give courage to their hearts
and more strength to their arms than public
meetings, speeches and resolutions. .m.,s

AThriIIinE TncIden.. z

On Thursday evening at the great Union
meeting at Sturges Hall, Chaplain Collier,
while referring TO the desertions from the
Army in consequence Of the advice Of Cop
Iperheads at home, said: Sir, the letters
our soldiers receive from certain mon at
home, advocating peace measures and dc.
nouncing the war, have worse effect upon
them than any defeat. The letters are al.
ways discouraging, and these traitors per
sistently and continually urge the men to
desert. Why. to-day received letter
from the Assistant Adjutant General oi
my brigade, in which he aunounced the
arrest Of a number of men who deserted,
because of the encouragement received
from persons some of whom reside in this
livery city, (Mansfeld) and / have their
names. And while ten of these deserters
iton night lie in q wretched cell, guarded
and ironed, under sentence of death for
their offence, see before me seated in the
audience one of the men who counselled
them to DESERT" The effect was thrilling
beyond description. Applause and hisses'
and cries of "Nams himp "Put him out |
were intermingled, and for several minutes
the uproar continued. Every body looked
around 10 see who the individual might be,
and whoever he was, he kept quiet, and
the speaker did not name him. Mansfield

a Speclr OF War IN Ohto'
Tho Cipoipneti Gazette Of Thursday
says;
Last week aUuited States Marshal, With
four soldiers proceeded 10 Hoskinsville,
Noble county, Ohio, for the purpose OF ar
restina two men---ouo q desertef and an
other who had written letters encouraging
desertious. Over one hundred men turned
out with guns and prevented the arrest.
The Marshal, with his squad Of soldiers, es-
capped, aud returned 10 the city on Saturday.
Yesterday morning two companies Of the
115th Infantry proceeded with Marshal
Sand, on a special train, for the purpose Of
enforcing the law.
They arrived last night at Cambridge
and will proceed this morning 20 miles, tc
the disafFected locality. Our dispatchs from
Cambridge report that the butternuts have
resolved TO resist TO the last, and their mum
bcr Is variously estimated at two TO eight
hundred. The inside figure, however, Is
believed TO be nearest the mark.
The most exciting rumors bad reached
Cambridge, and our readers win bear il
mind that il is upon these the reports tele
grsphed are foundered. There isno doubt
however, Of an armed organization, whicl
has resolved TO resist; but it is our opinion
that as soon as sthey get sight Of the soldiers
who are quito ready for a fight, their cour
age viii ooze out, and tho "hiding policy
spoken Off our dispatches, will be adopted
This is the natural fruit Of the teachings o
disIoyal presses and politicians, who have
been permitted by too lenient Govern
ment to incite IN ignorant people TO resis
the authorities. But the time has come
for the government to make its power felt
so that deluded men, such as those in Noble
county, will discover the terrible conse
quences OF Ffeir febelious conduct. i'atn

impressed had no alternative but to obey.
