tains an account of the discovery of ;
murder committed near that place about
three years ago. On the 18th of August,
1861, Germ an named Steiz quarrcled
with man named Won Jesseda, employed
by him IN running sawmill, knocked
him senseless with an iron bar, and after
wards buried him in his cellar. A servant
girl witnessed the act, but kept the secret
for some time. Finally she told it to some
relatives who lived near Steitz. The lat
ter recently exposed the crime, and a por-
ton Of the decomposed remains we're
found in Steitz's cellar. He has been ar
rested and confessed the crime.

British Guineas Against us.

At the great Union meeting in New
Haven, on wednesday last, the. Rev. Dr.
Patton, just returned from Europe. made
q speech. in the couras Of which he
said that he had hurried home to vote fol
Mr.. Lincoln; and that his haste had beer
stimulated by having observed how
deeply interested the aristocrscy Of Eng
land are in our elections, and how anx-
ious they are that Nc Clellan should sue
coed. He spoke Of noblemen who freely
admitted they were sending gold to this
country to influence the election in favor
Of Mcclellan, believing that his election
would be followed by peace and separa-
ton.

Pseudo Soldiers.

One ofthe plans Of the But
ternuts is to'vote early in their
own township where they re-
side, and then to don the dress
ola soldier, and repair to some
neighboring. township, or
county, and vote again, know
ing that Union men love and
cherish the valor Of the SOL
diers of the Republic, and will
not, therefore, challenge their
votes, believing as they do,
that men fighting for the life
Of the nation, should have a
right to enjoy the elective
franchise. The Copperheads
not satisfied with cheating
them out of their votes, have
determined to steal their liv-
cry in order that they may the
better impose upon the judges
Of election; and by voting Of
ten, carry the election in fa-
vor of Gunboat-drive them
to the wall Mcclellan, who, in
the hands of Ben Wood, Val
landigham & Co., will play
into the hands Of Southern
traitors, cheat us of our liber-
ties, and establish upon the
ruins of the Republic, a des-
potism ofthe worst character.
Watch those copperhead cow
ards and sneaks. whom blue
uniforms, will attempt to i'm
pose upon Union men. Let
no soldier vote without you
know him to be entitled to it.

To the People

You are about to VOTE
Ponder well before you do.-
On your vote depends the fact
of the permanence of the glo-
rious Union and lasting peace,
or disunion and interminable
war.
A vote for Mcclellan, is a
vote to take more than 2O0,-
600 Negroes out of the army,
and fill their places with the
same number of laboring
white Men. Think of it, you
on whom the Consumption
viii fall.
A vote for Mcclellan, is q
vote for Slavery, and slavery
is war! 1t is war against the
law of God and humanity
There can be no Peace while
Slavery lasts!
The Wyandot pioneer. (Upper Sandusky, Ohio) 1853-1868, 1864-11-04
Remember,

Remember, a vote for Nc
Clellan, is a vote to withdraw
from the Union armies over
100000 well disciplined and
able-bodied negro soldiers.
Remember, a vote for Nc
Clellan, is a vote to fix the
whole burden of the war up
on the shoulders ofthe white
man.
Remember, a vote for Nc;
Clellan, is a vote for Pendle-
ton, the open and undisguised
friend and ally of armed reb'
els in the South.
Remember, a vote for Nc
Clellan, is a vote for the dis
missal of the Union Generals
Grant, Sheridan, Sherman
and Farragut.
Remember, a vote for Nc
Clellan, is equivalent to q
vote for the disruption of the
Union, and an acknowledge
ment Of the Southern Confed
eracy.

Watch Them.

The Copperheads with their
leader, knowing that they are
being driven "to the a0aM" and
seeing nothing but defeat in
the result of the election next
Tuesday--are "pipelaying" on
an extensive scale, and have
Matched q stupendous plan by
which they hope, by fraud to
carry the election. Their foul
plot has been measurably dis
covered, and exposed, and if
the Union men will do their
duty and be upon the watch,
their secret plotters against
the Union will be thwarted in
carrying the Elections by
fraud Challange every voter

The State Union Central Commi ttee
has received information from sources oi
the most perfect reliability of enormous
frauds in contemplation by the Copper
head manager at the election next Tues
day week. A wholesale and outrageous
system Of fraudulent voting has been ar
ranged for by the Mcclellan len lers
throughout many localities, il not the en-
tire State. One Of the main features OF
their scheme is bold and rather
novel one. it is, for such OF their voters as
are not likely to be detected in the fraud
to first vote in cetizen's suit, and don.
ming the natural uniform to cast second
ballot, or still more il possible. The SOL
diers are known to be so unanimously for
Lincoln that they anticipate no iuterfer-
ence with their plans from Union obal-
lengers at the polls. THEM designs
have been discovered in good time, and
their plottings wsll come to nought--.

How They Howl.

Such bowling and gnashing of teeth
has never before been heard Of, as tha,
INDUCED in by the copperheads the past
week, when they found that their fou
play upon the soldiers vote of New York
had been discovered. and that the Gov.
srnment was determined to protect the
noble spirits who are in the service, from
the Empire State, in the elective franth
ise.
Jemimah, what a howl was set up! Il
was as if pan3emonium had burst hel

earth; but alas alas | the poor. discon-
solats, God-forsakeu, bogus remnent ol

and by the rascally conduct Of the Clerk
rode into power, and are now holding Of
fees to which they wers never elected;
and they laughed at their cunning, and
thought they were smart in outwiting
their opponents. The same breed oI
"PURPS" in New York, who see the
handwriting on the wall, and knowing
that an honest balot-a free election will
ensure triumphant victory for that pure
patriot. Abrahem Lincoln, conceived q
plan in keeping with the history Of the
party. by which they hoped, by fraud, to
change the general result.
But the Federal Government had an
eye on the State Agents. whose business
it was to collect the ballots Of the New
York soldiers, and were fortunate enough
to discover the trick, and in defence Of
violated law, arrested the perpetrators,
and brought the political knsves in New
York to sudden grief. And, now. for
sooth, throughout. the ranks Of the "cops"
there is howl against the Government,
for infringing on personal liberty. The
believing for free speech was played out,
and now they have raised the cry Of "no
infringement on personal liberty" The
thief thinks it 10 an infringement on his
personal rights, when the law arrests him
for stealing. and confines him in Jail. Oh,
il is gross attack upon the the LIBER-

Government interferas with them in their
