IF THE RESULT Of our election he what
il ought and what We all hope it will be,
that result will be secured by the
fidelity of individual effort Too much
ought not to be expected of the
State and County Committees. They
can and will do much, but their action
cannot take the place of individual zeal
and fidelity Throughout the length and
breadth of tine State, every loyal man
should constitute himself committe NJ
one to look after the halting, the hesita,
ting, the weak and fearful, and see that
they be confirmed, encouraged and
strengthened, that in this great issue he
tween freedom and slavery their votes 20
on the right side. Freemen there is
not one hour to lose b up und doiDg

UNI
MECHANICS AND woRKINGMEN, remem
Der that your own best interests and wei
fare demand that you should elect Hon.
NATHANIEL b. SNITHERs to Congress-
Should the Republic be maintained you
will enjoy the same degree of prosperity
and happiness that has heretofore marked
your career but if the insurgents should
prove successful, in the desoaton that
will follow you will be the real sufferers
Business will be broken up. A crisis will
ensue which will tell with the same fear
iul effect us that now experienced in the
South by the laboring masses Poverty
and starvation will invade your homes
Recollect that in the next Congress the
two parties will be nearly equally divided
On the one side are the friends of the
Union, pledged to sustain the Government
and vote supplies TO carry on the war; OIL
the other the COpperheads, elected on the
principle that they will interpose every
imaginable obstacle to the efforts of til,
Administration to restore the Union. TIL,
Representative from this State may b,
needed to give the former majority OF
the vital question of voting men ant
means to keep our armies in the fel
until treason and rebellion are crushed
out. Mr.. Brown is identified with tn,
Copperhead party, and should he be clec
ted, and his vote in Congress decide thi
matter against the Administration, upoi
you will rest the odium and disgrace
which will forever after attach to on
State, besides bringing on yourselves tn
untold horrors that will follow in it
train.

SNAIL WE nE content wi.

SHALL WE BE content with eleeting our
candidate by barely decent majority :?
The opportunity is so fair to pile up a
tremendous loyal vote upon the Copper
head of Charley Brown that no man with
an eye TO the main chance can fail to Use
it. 1t would almost seem that the SYM
pathetics with j. d. have invited us to a
crushing defeat of their hopes and works
by making nomination so "unlt to be
made" We sincerely hope they will not
be disappointed. Let the friends of the
Government by one IIerculean blow st
completely bruise the head of this vile
State-sovereignty treason that it shall be
lifted nevermore,"

LITTLE DELAWARE probably fills a
larger place, just now, in the public eye,
than at any period since the Constitution
was adopted There is clear reason for
this in the fact that upon US the duty falls
of bringing up the rear of that grand vic
torous army that has been sweeping over
the loyal States, from Maine to California,
winning its mighty though bloodlcss vic
tories at the ballot-box. Do the loyal
voters of Delaware realize how important
is the service they are called to render to
their State and Country? We hope every
one will talk with his neighbor and stimu-
late his zeal. See to it friends that nc
one fails to do lis duty.

that had evidently beef stolen. He is a bay,
about l6 hands high, 10 or IL years old, with
little white on both fore feet. His name and
tail incline to fax color. On charging the man
who had him with having stolen him, he aban-
doned the horse and made his escape.
The owner can find the horse at my residence,
IL miles west of Abingdon on the Reedy Creek
road and after paying expenses and proving
property, can take him away. The thief was
travelling westward and said he came from Pu-
