TO TIE UNION MEN OF HANCOCK.

We earnestly appeal to the Union
men of Hancock, to commence now,
at this time, this very day, and thor
oughly organize the county, by school
districts. Our vote at the last cleo
ton was not all out; in every town
ship, men were left at home, whom, u
little effort-a little trouble, would
have brought to the polls.
We tell the Union men Of Hancock
that there is more danger of losing
Ohio, with her 80 900 majority, than
there is OF Pennsylvania. So close
was PENNSYLVANIA, that her Union
men are AT WORK, and in Norem-
ber, a majority of 10000 for Lincoln,
will show that they have worked and
to some purpose. In Ohio, with our
large majority, WE are sleeping, while
the enemies Of the government are at
work night and day. They know our
supineness and hope to catch MS nap
ping. The campaign is not over, and
the work should not be stopped un'
til the last vote is in the box, on the
night of the 9th of November.
Let there be perfect organization
and let US work as zealously as tho
our majority had been one instead o
twenty-five thousand

PLEASE EXPLAIN.

The last Courier says in one place
that Immediately after the late cleo
ton, in consequence Of the Union sue
cesses, gold went up. We felt bad until
reading farther. we found another item
glorying in the fact that the elections
indicated beyond question the certain
election OF small Mac. The Courier
will please answer
/. If gold went up because of I'm
ion successes, how is the election OF
Mcclellan certain 7

Gated by the elections, why should

THE LATE ELECTION.

The Courier bloviates hugely over
the fact that the Coppelhead majority
was something like two hundred
larger this Fall than last. If it can
find any comfort in this it is almost
too bad to destroy it; but the fact is
the Coppcrhead party has not gained
o vote in the county. Our svote is
short, not because of changes, for we
doubt if there has been dozen, but
because the Union mon have sent just
that number Of the loss into the army

Democracy. Those votes will turr
