Copperhead fresides, and by the wives
and daughters of COpperhcad hus-
bands.
Again, of tho ministers of the Gospel
he says they are
- reverend hell-wholps, of their
so-called Zion. They are nothing but
wolves in sleeps clothing, thieves and
robbers."
A nd in another article, the vile BIAS
phemer says:
"From all the facts in the case, I oun-
not but come to the concl usion, that
for the peace and happiness of the world
that all kinds Of religion shall be ban
ished from among men,"
And once more
"The christian priests are the only
human bloodhounds in this country:and
throughout the world"
Crawford county has borne a pretty
hard character, in consequence Of
toleruting such C1pperho ads as DR..
Tuttlc, but we are glad to know by the
Doctors complaint, that ono honest in
fi1el can be elected to any Office in the
Democratic county of Crawford" so
that sclf-respect has not entirely left
the people.
Next to the members and ministers
of Christian Churches, the Divinity
Physician pours ont its iercest invec e.
tives against President Lincoln.
Here is ssp9cimsa Of the free speech
which the Copporheads claim as among
their rights
81 said publicly, eight months ago,
that I owed no allegiance to Abe Lin
coin. Ny God! would as soon pay
homage, respect or allegiance to old
Lucifer, or to all devils, while holding
their meetings in hclI,as to Abe Lin coin,
President Of the United States"
"Does the old fool, though he is law
giver aud law-makor, for tho freemsn
Of Ohio, does he think that because he
is knavo, that all other men are fools?
x x * 1 now charge old Abe
with being guilty Of all the crimes
known in tho catalogue, stealing, mur-
dering, Kidnapping, house breaking,
burglary, aud falsehood and other
acts, which could fill the measure
heapiug full and running over, of ono
mans vilinies"
"T, therefore, sentence O!d Abe Lin
cola to be hung by the neck until lie
is dead, DEAD, DEAD, and if there is
any God who has disposition to have
mercy on his internal black soul, then
there is no need Of a devil or thee logi-
eel hell "
These extracts are no fiction of
ours. Thcy,are taken word for word,
from the Copperhead paper which lies
before US an1 which is filled to the
brim with just such Infamous Ian
guage. The Doctor does not hesitate
to declare which side he belongs to 10
the war. He says:
"IIow beautiful it is for the White
House tyrants at Washington to give
glory to God for killing and manning
and numbering $4,000 of our people at
Gettysburg"
OF course the rebels are meant
there.
Under the head of "Benton Price
Current" some of the pretended "quo-
tations," are so iearfully blasphemous
and impious that VIC will not profane
our columns with them. One of tho
comparatively moderate ones is the fol-
lowing;
"REv. SAINTS. Very few in market
now, all are gone into the army for
Chaplains, where they are commission
ed to pray, preach, rob, lie and steal to
their hearts desire, aud at the same
time receive soventy-fve dollars per
month"
Tuttle offers a reward of $500 for one
word Of truth uttered by the Admins
tration party, and in his ohastO and elc-
CANT Coppsrhoad Stylo adds;
"Old Abe lied like hell in his Inaug-
ursl; Seward lied in all his dispatches,
the generals all lie in the details Of bat
ties"

"Now be it known TO the whole world
that I, D. Tuttle, of the town Of Benton,
Crawford county, Ohio, on the 4th OF
July, 1868, issue this my Proola IN alton
that Old Abe Lincoln is damned old
villain and knave; hat if am mistaken
in this, then he is j lst as big an old dot
