To the People Of Northern Ohio.
HEADQU ARTERs L. ). FORCES,
CLENEIANn o. Lnnn d lSh3


The Governor of Ohio and Major Gen
eral Burnside commanding the Department
of Ohio. concur in the instant necessity fdS
the people to organize and become fit for
State and National defense. In no other
country and in this country only Mt the
North, has it been true, in case of invasion
or war, that the whole cause has been in
trusted to the soldiers III the field. Other
nations organized their reserves, and the
South has forced all her citizens to the use
of arms and systematic military drill. The
North has increased in wealth in spite OF
the war, and feared nothing.
Now the time has come to be III earnest.
A few hours of time given daily to the bus-
ness will make of the people, soldiers.
Present sacrifice is nothing when compared
with the contingencies OF being assailed un-
prepared. Pennsylvania bends under the
present stroke because thus unprepared.
Ohio must be ready 10 protect herself and
her sister States DAYS and weeks are
more pregnant with vital issues than were
months or years in other times. God helps
those only who help themselves. You can
not sleep securely while your neighbours
house burns. Better that the draft take
every man and leave only women to reap
the harvests, than that you slight the de-
mands of the passing hour; and let the ques.
tons as to the draft sink out of sight. Re-
member that it is your State and National
Government that call you. Their hearty
support is your salvation! What is party
What are all questions of mere executive
or administrative policy? What are all per.
sonal interests when cast into the scale of
present duty? AS no man is perfect, So
men will differ upon all other questions :;
but no true man or patriot will shrink from
the solemn call to national defense.
Let every township have its company
Let every county have its brigade 1T IS so
d0ne, S0uah. Camp Cleveland is prepared
to receive ten thousand men. Uniforms
are ready. A thorough system of instruc-
tiOn will he commenced forthwith. Com
petent officers will assist. While your
homes are safe and danger is remote, it is
no less true that the homes of others are
being laid waste. There is no need that
you become excited to spasmodic efforts
that only relax your strength but, what is
, needed is just this, that calmly and deliber-
ately, as you would do any other important
business you take hold and end this war
by victory over all enemies, The sooner
this point is reached, the sooner you will
attain peace aud its blessings.

Brigadier-General.

tials. - Clique Organ, J,me &c.
Pshaw! That's nothing! Why didn't they fol-
low the precedent established at Bowling Green, on
the 9th of June? They might have stepped into
a bar-room, organized the ONLY GENUINE Union "
State Convention, turned OF "Union" ticket
then reorganized aud "done" " Democratic ticket
or resolved tas the Clique organ says that
"we will not say that all who vote for Vallandig-
ham are opposed to the war!" At the same
time, they might have done little business for the
State Agricultural Society,"" In these days
when a rory ts,0 men can hold lots +" of political
conventions and an agricultural meeting on the
same day, no Inconvenience should be Occasioned
by such an insignificant circumstance the 4" fail
ure of trains to connect !" However, we have
good reasons for believing that oply one Of the 9th
of June delegates appeared in the vicinity of the
State Convention on the l7th of June. If the
others were there, they unquestionabIy kept "very
shady !"

Deaths i'll the Army-The 10th and 111th
Regiments.

The Fostoria Ne,cs states that Daniel Shoofstall,
of West Milgrove, a member of Company H, 49th
Regiment, died in hospital near Murireesboro, a
few days ago. His brother, member of Company
l, lllth Regiment, died the week previous from
exposure, on the march from Bowling Green to
Glasgow.
The same paper learns that the lllth Regiment
has again taken up the line of march, having left
Glasgow, Kentucky, for Scottsville, on the Cum
berland, to intercept John Morgan, of guerrilla
fame. OF course it is unknown how long they may
remain at Scottsvile, hut in the meantime all mail
matter should be addressed to Glasgow, to follow
the regiment. The general health of the regiment
was good.

About four weeks since an agent sent us twenty
five names to be added to our subscription list.
At the time of receiving them we were very much
hurried with work, and laid the list in drawer,
intending to transfer it to our book at the first eis
urc moment. But almost unaceountably, the mat
ter was forgotten for nearly two weeks-and con-
sequently, those subscribers did not receive the
first two numbers of the JOURNAL to which they
were entitled yet they will receive the full num-
Der of papers for which they have paid-the time,
however, commencing two weeks later than the
date of their respective receipts.
