The Duty of Republicans.

We hope those who went deliberately
to the polls on Tuesday and voted to per-
petuate the reign Of A braham Lincoln over
this country, VIII be prepared to meet the
palpable consequences of their action man-
fully. With Mcclellan we offered them
peace within thirty days after his inaugur-
alton and a restored Union. With the re-
election OF Lincoln the war is to 60 on in
its old channel, and that without hope CT
Union, until what there is left to the north
of life for battle or of property for taxes is
consumed. Those who voted for the lat
ter alternative, mnst have known for what
they voied, and should be the first to well
come the self-imposed sacrifice.
Their first duty is to shoulder muskets
and march to the front. A defan: rebel
host confronts our troops in every quarter.
From three to five hundred thousand ne
groes are about to be placed in the field
to earn their own freedom and defend tho
southern confederacy. Grant, Sherman
and all other acting federel commanders
are calling loudly for men to fulfil the
mission prescrited them by Abraham
Lincoln-;he determination and subjuga-
ton of the south. AS the republicans Of
the north have declared they will consent
TO peace upon no other conditions, we sup
pose of course they are prepared to verify
their principles by their action,
The balance of the property in possess
sion of Linco!n's followers is also wanted
TO the last dime! Tho tax-gatherers
will not fail to visit them frequently and
to demand tribute freely. The green.
backs they have On hand will depreciate
rapidly. The real estate they own is dai-
ly growing worthless. We presume they
like al this, and will cheerfully acquiesce
for this is what they have voted for
We shal. have another draf. soon. We
have seen that under the suhiugation poll
cy drafts are necessary. These coming
conscripts will afford new opportunities
for the Lincoln men to demonstrate their
sincerity at the polls. They will all be
cal!e2 for. We have arrived at that stage
in the conflict when men must be had or
the work Of suhjugation must be abandon,
ed. The exemption of republicans and
the sons Of republicans will not meet the
necessities of the case. The administra-
ton wants living flesh and blood for the
ranks and the trenches. Of course, those
among US who have worked so hard for
Lincoln will not refuse to 90. We doubt
if they will be permitted to refuse if they
would. They will be held to answer for
the policy they voted for !-Mluaukee

From Grants Armv.

The Herald's army of the James special
says: "The impression was common
one throughout the armies operating
agalns, Richmond that Lee would order
an attack on the day of election, indulg-
ing the belief that our lines would be
weakened and could be penetrated and
held by the rebel forces. On the contra
ry, the day was exceedingly quiet. l
hardly heard gun fired anywhere though
out the lines on either side. On the left
the cavalry were sadded and ready to
move at any moment, No alarm occur
red. Military matters are represented as
at stand still, with no prospects Of a
change.

An Officer put in Irons for Defending
Mcclellan.

From The Washington Constitutional Union.
G. Wilberforce Denison, an inspector
from Connecticut, was arrested by Captain
Braman of the 93d New York volunteers,
for expressing, as alleged, copperhead SEN
timen:s. The sentiments, we learn from
Mr.. Denison. were these Captain Braman
and others officers charged General Me-
CleIlan with being coward and traitor
Mr.. Denison expressed the belief that he
was capable Of proving that General Me-
C!ellan was no coward aLd traitor, Deni-
son did so prove. They, the officers, at
General Detrobriand's table, then stated
that George Ii. Pendleton was the trouble.
Mr.. Denison, in answer, said that PEN
dleton was never disunion man, but that
Andrew Johnson, on the ticket with Lin
coin. was, N 1859, secessionist. For
:his Mr. Denison was arrested, and sent to
Gen. Hancock to be sent out of the lines.
General Ii. referred the case to General
Patrick, provost marshal of the army op-
Grating against Petersburg and Richmond.
General Grant ordered the inspector from
Connecticut to be placed On board the
barge "Wallkil!," in the James river,
off Gen. Grants headquarters, to await
the charges against him.
The old soldier, who has been more
than twenty years III active service. did
rot like to have man sent out of the lines
for standing up for his OLD commander,
General Mcclellan, and referred the case
to Gen. Grant. He sent word to Gen.
Patrick to send to Gen. Detrobriand and
see what the charges were. The state
ment came back as we have stated above.
General Patrick Immediately released Mr..
Denison, and he is to day in Washington.

The state Of New York is yet in doub:,
both sides claiming it BY small majority
The result Of The home vote in Pennsvl>
vania, as yet, is doubtful. New Jersey
gives $500 majority for Mcclellan.
Delaware has gone democratic by $50.
The democratic majority in Kentucky is
from $4,000 to $4,000. In Minnesota,
the democrats have cut the abolition ma
jority down to 1000 or 5000, and made
considerable gains in the Legislature.
Lincoln's majority in Indiana is estimated
at $4,000. Maryland elects two demo-
cratic congressman out of FIVE, notwith-
standing the terrorism and fraud of the
administration.

LEFT Us.-The steamer Comet, on
Tuesday, had on board as passengers, lion.
HENRY S. TIERPoNT, and family, Of Two
Rivers, who temporarily, and probably
permanently, leave our county, to take up
a residence in Rochester, New York.
The bare announcement Of the fact will
cause regret throughout the county, for
no man in it had more friends than Judge
PrKRPoNr. For several years he has been
closely identified with our interests, and
cannot well be spared. The Judge has
not yet resigned, and in behalf of our
people, we hope he will change his mind.
AS a Judge and a citizen, our county must
feel bis absence sorey. May Fortune
lavish upon him and his her warmcst and
most aiiectonate smiles.

ANOTHER MARINE D1sAsrER-Loss OF
The STEAMER CLEVELAND AND HER CAkGo.
"A dispatch was received this morning
by her owner. announcing the loss of the
steamer Cleveland, Capt. Helloran, of ,he
Detroit and Lake Superior line. We are,
as yet, without particulars of this disaster.
In the dispatch no mention is made OF
loss Of life, which would have been men
toned, had there been such unfortu
nate occurrences. The facts seem to
be that she was driven ashore in gale,
at Toullart River, about twenty miles
above Whitefsh Point, while on her up
ward passage. She is reported a total
wreck. Much of her cargo, which con-
sisted Of merchandise, m has drifted upon
the beach, and may be saved, though in a
damaged condition. She vas fully in

.vr s@s IT,

IF the aboliuouists are not valiant, thev
are belIigerent. Now that they have tie
field TO themselves, we may soon expect
from them an effort TO ascertain who l'r.
Lincoln belongs to. Messrs. Weed, Sew
ard, Morgan, etc, claim Linn by right OF
purchase, while Garrison, Greeley, Ere
nout, Chase and their followers assert
their ownership by possession. We doubt
not that the result Of the contest will YER
ify the truth Of the old adage, that !" there
are but ten points in law, and possession
is nine OF them" Be this as II may, the
fight will be an interesting one, continuing
rs long as did the battle between the XII
kenny cats, and terminating similarly,
The Garrison cat has the longer tail, but
the Weed cat has the sharpest claws
which will leave nothing but little ribbons
Of the remnint. No sane man will doubt,
when the mutual destruction begins, that
the parties are engaged ia the interests
Of God and humanity"

Terri bic Tornado at Chester, III.
From the st. Louis Republican.

FROM inc Ct. LOUIS hepuDllCa0.
\ terrible tornado passed over the
town Of Chester ILL.,, about two o'clock
on the morning Of the Sth inst, resulting
in great loss Of life and property. Some
twelve or fourteen houses were blown
down and completely demolished, burving
the sleeping inmates in the ruins. The
steamboat j. d. Perry passed on her way
few hours afterwards, from Cairo to ST.
Louis, and gathered the following particu
lars Of the disaster
The storm seems to have come from the
southwest, and passed only over the south
ern portion Of the town, blowing down
tie dwelling house Of Mr.. Chauncey Has
kin, killing him and his little daughter
abou! II years Ct age. 1t next struck the
house Of Col. Jones, raising it to the
ground, and burying him completely.
When taken from the ruins, life was found
to be extinct. 1t then passed on, carry
ing everything before it. Among the
wounded are Miss Emerson, morlaliy !;
Miss Anderson, Mr.. Henry Gauseman, and
some ten others whose names could not be
ascertained. The houses of the Messrs.
Mann, Moore, Emerson, Jones, Critten-
den, Wilkinson, andHaskins were entirely
destroyed. The Baptist church, brick
edifce, was blown to atoms, the bricks
and mortar blown to great distance.
The roof Of the large brick brewery was
blown off, and the numerous ou. houses
and sheds destroyed. At the time the
Perry passed, the rain was pouring down
in torrents, and the wind bowling terribly,
SO that it was almost impossible to learn
the full extent Of the disaster Several
skiffs and canoes that were lying in the
river were blown half way up the bluff, a
distance of nearly a quarter of mile.

The Milwaukee Ne~s says: Il is wor-

State, as far as we have detailed returns,
Lincoln runs considerably behind his tick

coin is considered By his own party per
sonaliy inferior TO the majority of the re
publican candidates.
That he will cheat Lis own friends tLeie
is not the least reason to doubt. Three
fourths Of those who have been shouting
for him the last six weeks, before the next

ing bitterly against him.
