plenty of men urging us into combins-

Vallandigham returned to Ohio TO obtain
renewed lustre as first class martyr, by re-
arrest In this he has so far, failed, and is in
danger OF losing what little interest attached
to his exile in Canada. He is OF no more CON
sequence now than the mummes in the cata-
combs. His only possible chance Of restor-
ing his personal consequences is to return to
Windsor voluntarily, and set up for martyr
dom again, under pretense that the order for
his arrest is still pending over him, and that
to remain in Ohio involves too much person
al risk, We charge nothing for this sensible
advice, which, il acted upon promptly, might
bring down refreshing shower OF dime CON
tributions, and possible conspcuity, at tho

The Journal, of this morning, by a
d0plorable act of incontinence, betrays a
secret which it was no doubt anxious to
keep, viz "That great many weak
hearted Union men disparago the success
of the Federal army" SO it seems that
even Union" men have become "weak-
hearted, " and doubt the practicability of
conquering the South 1t seems, also,
that these weak-hearted doubters are not
few, but number "great many" Just
think Of it A great many weak hearted
Union men disparage the success of the

do no worse, Loyalty, we very much
