Io,ConneI1,s Letter.

A correspondent of the Chicago Tribune
says:
1t is implied in your introduction of
this letter, that it is now for the first time
printed This is mistake. TWAS print
ed shortly after its reception in this coun-
try, [if not generally in the newspapers,
certainly in pamphlet form, and one copy
is still extant. 1t is in the library of DR..
Ira A. W. Buck, at Aurora, in this State.

to a considerable extent among the anti
slavery men in the EasterH States-but

this war to crush the Shareholders rebel

the Congressional Convention.

Within the last two weeks we have had
numerous letters and suggestions concern
a district convention. The necessity for
such convention is SO obvious that Un-
ion men generally feel solicitous concern
ing it. Many times and places have been
suggested for such body. We think,
however, that the 4th Ward meeting has
exactly hit the nail on the head in their
Recommendation. The proper time to hold
the convention is undoubtedly about the
3Oth of September, the day suggested; and
the place that is at least as good as any
other, is MUundsville, in Marshall coun-
ty, the place recommended. The cleo
tion will follow the nomination on tho 22d
of October, just about time enough after
ward. A nomination is equivalent to an
election and hence there is no necessity
for any considerable lapse of time between
the two. The County Conventions to send
delegates to the district Convention can be
all held on the Saturday previous, which
will be the 26th of September. This will
give abundant time for the delegates to
come to Moundsville from any part of the
Now that the move has been made and
a proper time and place designated, we hope
that the work will at once go forward !
aud we would especially appeal to the
Uaion men of the district not to be indf-
ernent about their County Conventions
inasmuCh as on their actions and on their
selections depends the proper selection OF
nominee, on whom, in his turn, may de-
pend the most important results to the
state and the country in Congress next win
ter. The nominee of the Convention, will
be elected overwhelmingly we presume,
and therefore the all Importance of proper
selection.

The terrible Drouth I'm this section


Old persons tell us that never in their
lives have they known anything like the
continued raging heat of this summers
pecially these August days. 1t has pre-
vailed now almost without iutermission
since the middle of July, and the conse-'
quence is that the country is as Parched
and sere as a prairie after FIRE. We no.
ticcd in ride through this county into
Brooke that the pasture was all gone and
that the farmers were in state of great
anxiety about their flocks this winter, in
asmuch as the hay crop was SO unusually
light as to amount to nothing at all
scarcely. Many persons are selling OF
their sheep and others are driving them in
to sections of the country that have not
been visited with our dreadful drouth.-
Some sheep sold on Short Creek the other
day for dollar and twelve cents per head
that last fall would have brought from two
to three times the price. 1t is question
of either selling or starving their stock with
some of the farmers, and of course they
chose the former. Butter is becoming de-
cidedly hard TO get as may be Judgea lFoh
the price. Even in the country it is worth
twenty cents per pound. Everything else
of vegetable kind is running up in pro-
The strange feature of the drouth is that it
runs SO uuequally through the country
There are spots of territory within a re-
dius of twenty miles from here that have
suffered scarcely any at all, and where the
the people have not complained of any
special lack of rain. On Saturday night
Mt Bethany it rained quite vigorously for
a little spell, while half way between there
and this city scarcely drop fell. And
thus it goes and has gone since mid-sum-
mer all over this immediate section of
country.

Inn,ousnble stupldlty.

1t would be blessed thing if the New
York papers, more especially their Wash
ington correspondents, could some day ar
rive at an approximate understanding of
matters and things relating to West vir-
GINA and the old State of Virginia rsspec-
lively. Nearly every allusion they make
contains blunder. The latest blunder
is in confoundiug Gov. Peirpoiut's admin
istration at Alexandria with the govern
ment of the new State, ands peaking of it
as if he had temporarily removed the seat
of government for West Virginia over
there. Do not the stupid correspondents
at Washington, who only live ten miles
from Alexandria, know any better than
that2 We are in despair of them. We
have corrected SO many of their errors in
reference to the new State within the last
two wears, that we have for some time
given up the task as hopeless.

The RebeILoan.

The London Spectator says that the
friends of the rebels have lately paid four
millions of dollars for their friendship
The rebel loan has tumbled to such depth
as to be almost out of sight. A writer in
the London Daily Ne.Os describes its down
fall thus:

cline to immediate themselves upon the al

The Raleigh standard Denounced.
From the Savannah Republican.


Mr.. EDITOR The Raleigh Standard, I
see, advocates submission.
Can it be possible, sir, that the good
people of Raleigh will tolerate such senti-
ments in their midst2 Will they continue
to permit such a trucking coward to edit
a paper in their city. 1 cannot believe it.
They will indicate their own sentiments,
and force this poor creature, who deserves
not the name of man, to seek home among
those dear Yankees, whose slave he is so
anxious to become. Such fellow is
scarcely worthy of our indignation, but he
should not be permitted to insult the brave
people of our Confederacy by such arti-
cles. 1t is scarcely to be supposed that a
man of his stamina will be able to do much
harm, but our late reverses have developed
other trembling, weakened fellows, who
have not shouldered their muskets to de-
fend their homes-who, together with this
brave editor, are ready to fall down on their
Yankees. rs
Such towards, sir, were born slaves, and
do not deserve that brave and true men
should toll and sweat and bleed to protect
them from such doom.
So much for. the Submissionist. Now
word to the Reconstuctionists; and let
me tell you, Mr.. Editor, that do not con-
slider them a whit better He who advo-
Gates recOnstrHction Gdp0cGtes submission,
and he KNOBS It; but he he thinks the word
reconstruction less objectionable than sub
mission, and he does not think the people
are quite ready for that word yet. But
let us see who advocate reconstruction
and submission. 1t is men who are stay
ing at home, and have not drawn their
swords in defence of their country. What
a
man that will see his country, his home
invaded, and not take up arms to defend
it, is 6y nature slaue, and is only pre-.
vented from being one by better men fight
ing his battles and standing between him
and his masters.
Alas for my country, that there are so
many such. There are enough men at
home in the Confederacy to make such an
army as would end this war in six months.
The streets of Macon and every other town
in the Confederacy are filled with these
fellows, who are enjoying their ease, while
their bstters are standing awake that they
may sleep in safety, and fasting that they
may be full. Il makes my heart sicken to |
think of them, and when get in their |
presence can hardly contain my indigna- |
ton. Let his exemption be ever SO we'll |
posterity will hold him account
able. An appeal to the patriotism of these
people would be useless, for they have |
none, There is bit one thing that can
reach them-that is the strong arm of the
law, and am amazed that our Govern
ment has waited on them so long

General Green Clay Smith, recently
elected to Congress from Kentucky, adj
dressed mass meeting at Hamilton, Ohio,
some days since, in the course of which he
referred to the following terms to his own
position and the number of votes at the
late election in his State as related to the
usual poll:
"The largest number ever cast was 1885,
600. The late vote for Union men was
So, 900, with twenty eight counties to hear
from; these would give 10000 at least, aud
5000 of these would be Union, so that 49,
600 will be the Union vote of the State
This doubled equals $4,000. He met the
charge that bayonets had Influenced the
vote and branded it as false. There were
from 10000 to 10000 votes for Wickliffe.
If this 10000 or 10000 could go to the
polls, why could the other $4,000, whom
it is said were prevented, do likewise2 The
vote is in reality larger than $4,000; for
Kentucky has sent off $4,000 to 10000
Union soldiers; from these there are, say,
10000 votes. This makes $4,000. Twice
this makes 100, 900, a clear $1,000 MAORI
ty for the Union.
kentucky is Slave State and voted
against Lincoln. He was not here as an
advocate of Lincoln. He had always been
a Douglas Democrat, and was to-day a
slave-owner, and yet was denounced as an
aboIitionist by the Louisville Journal and
others. he was happy to say that there
was five Thousand abolition majority in his
district.
tsThe speaker considered the charge that
the war was waged for the destruction OF
slavery untrue, for Kentucky stands to-day
slave State; so it is with Maryland and
Delaware. Not one of their institutions
have been interfered with by the Govern
ment; emancipation was not effected in
these, because their integrity is maintain
ment, and so the Government has stood by
them.
"The speaker then gave the reasons sla-
very was interfered with, which are famil-
lar to all, and gave his own position or
slavery in Kentucky. In reference to the
emancipation proclamation he said he anC
probably all the people in Kentucky were
opposed to it because it might effect IN
ion men. But it has been issued-what

power enOugh-wisdom, intrigue or ras-
cality enough to take Kentucky out of the
Union. We say to-day, that if Ohio doesn't
stand up to the cause Kentucky will whip
her into in.
"In the same manner they had been op.
posed to negro regiments, yet. still would
stand by the Government; put down re
bellion, and remedy evils at the ballot
box.
"Those anxious for peace can have it to-
night. Let the rebels lay down their arms
deliver over their leaders to be hung TO-
morrow, end they can have peace. Until
this is done, though he would rejoice with
tears of joy over the day of peace, never
would he lay down his arms"
