The news Vallandigham snomina-
ton by the peace Democracy, we might
say peace m0bocraey, for the Cover
norship Of Ohio, has been received
with feelings Of disgust, not unmixed
with wrath, By the loyal officers and
soldiers, especially those constituting
the 81st Ohio. The indignation is not
loud but deep. We regard the head
Of the ticket presented by the copper
heads f5r support as bcnIg u direct in

emy. and We hate him. The actions
Of the rampant delegates who com
posed the Tory Convention at Colum-
bus, the resolutions adopted and tho
speeches delivered, all exhibit anger,
not love of country. They proved
themselves TO be madmen, not patriots.

Never, no never! Be it know that the
8lst Ohio, citizens in peace and soldiers
in war, would rather he a dog and
bay tho moon, than such Roman!'
The 45th Ohio passed the following
resolutions unanimously.
d, Rea1lced That we condemn the
nom;nation of Yallandigham, and all
other objects of the peace party, as in
imical to every interest Of our Gov
ernmcnt as an outrageous insult to the
army and adisgrace to the State :; and
that We earnestly cali upon our friends
land brethren at hOme TO join heartily
and firmly with lis in resenting this
insult, and in wiping outthe foul stain
upon the proud escurcheon Of our
!, State by repudiatiDg the traitorous
yallandigiam, and all sympathizers
with him, by an overwhelming defeat
at the next election. 49,.
Res0lred, That we scorn all honied
resolutions Of respect for The army, all
the fattering compliments as to its
courage and gallantry, coming from
those who deliberately place obstruc
tions in the way of a speedy suppress
sion Of this wicked rebellion, and who,
under the hypocrticdl guise of peace
and the Union as it was have given
E all the aid in their power to the enemy
in front, who are our deadly, though
more honorable foes. We respect the
rebel in arms fighting for what he
. deems hisrights; but we utterly loatho
r that detcstable thing-a home traitor.
e The enlisted men Of the S0th Ohio
; have issued an address TO the people
! Of Ohio, from which we take the fol-
+ lowing extract. The address is signed
t by every enlisted man in the regiment:
, The rebels iaat hope is from North
crn symPathizers : without that their
. cause is hopeless. And while we hurl
: back with Indignant contempt the false
sympathy expressed for soldiers. IN tho
field, by a resolution adopted in the
platform Of the Copperhead party Of
! Ohio, at its late Convention in Colum-
r bus, We can plainly see that the mask
by which Satan deceived our first pa
rents may hide a'devil's face, but fails
/ for its damning purpose on a Copper.
