are out in q call for a meeting at Lam
caster Ohio, to organize q new

corrupt that they canpot associate
with the membership of any of them.

preach to true, unadulterated Val

tie for the saints of this stripe, the
first % advocate the establishment of
a church of this kind, and boldly an
nounce himself as its pastor, he should
of course be made its Arch bishop,
and its head. His education, his be-
ing 'seesund vessel, his borrowing
qualifications, his hankcring after the

The dispatches contain a DIGEST os'a

Ihe dispatches contain digest OF
news and opinions from late Southern
papers, OF remarkable interest. In
regard to the military situation and
prospects, nothing encouraging can
be found by the rebel journalists, ex.
'cept the fact that Longstreet occupies
an advantageous position. JET
DAVIS organ, the Richmond Sentinel
comedies that the look out for the
Confederacy is not at all agreeable,
and that the tug of war is now to
come. 1t also groans lamentably over
the big bounties rnd large number of
"mercnaries' paid and procured in
the North. A Montgomery, Ala. pa
per is bold enough to say that it sees
only destruction and despair in the
proceedings of the rebel Congress,
and fears that Robespicrres and Dan
tons are to appear in the South as in
France. The Raleigh Progress says
if the people 10 not have peace
they will starve; that q peace, honor
able enough for them, if not for the
leaders, who have ddceivcd and mis-
led them, can be obtained, and that
the people may. ere long, drive their
out of the county. The
charming state of the Confederate
currency is illustrated by the fact
that I, 900 coppers were sold for 81,
7OO--a fraction over 81 cents each.

The Hancock Copperhead.

Mr.. EDiToR:-I learn from good
authority that the Hancock Copper
head is in sympathy with the South

the South is contending for its consti-
tutional rights, and. d.that the "Aboli-
tion Government and the Clergy

war" Itsays, "Liacoln's war; cab

only lacking equal honesty to give

What is treason? Ans.-It is the
crime of being false to the allegiance
which one owes to his Sovereign oil
Movement. A traitor is one who is
guilty of treason. Disloyalty, as we

The Copperheads of Hancock are
adding their mite TO the fund for the
support of chat politically defunct
traitor, Clement l.. Xallandigham =
While we have no especial objection
to their contributing their dimes to
this object, we cannot help remark
ing;
1st. That there is score or so of
poor families in Findlay, and as many
more in every township in the coun-
ty, who need the contributions Of
those in good circumstances.
Cd. That the Soldiers Aid Society
could use in alleviating the wants of
the sick and wounded soldiers, every
one of these dimes.
3D.. That Mr.. Vallandigham is q
strong, hale, hearty man, and is ca
Ipable of supporting himself and fam
lily.
This collection results not so much
from sympathy with Vallandigham as
from sympathy with his cause. The
same hatred to the Government that
prompted the Copperheads to select
as q nominee, the man of all Others
,reeking with treason, prompts them
to contribute to his relief.
While many good men and women,
who contribute to Soldiers Aid So
cieties, will give to this fund, we ven-
ture the assertion that eUe-y man and
,oomaa Who has refused to sustain
these noble aids to the great cause
will give literally to this. This class
will go any length to express sympa-
thy with treason, but not step to-
wards aiding the brave men who are
battling against it
There is day Of reckoning COM
