spirits of Amouia applied TO the blisters
to make them draw, until his body was a
perfect sore. That for two days lie lay
perfectly i,isehsible, and was at one

THE DRAFT.

THE DRAFT.
As the day for turning the wheel in
Uncle Sans lottery draws near. the sub
jects Of his kingdom begin to feel deep
anxiety in the result. The lame and the
hault, the manned and blind in one eye,
the stringhalt and every kind of cripple
is giving displays Of their different all
iments, in order to open up a clear way
iof exemption in case the lot falls upon
them. The fact IS the scdrd in body and
mind; do not like the appearance things
begin to assume. and much trem bling in
the boots is very sepseibly felt. The
fact is, we, ourselves do not like the pros
poets ahead, and should we be so (unJ
fortunate as to draw the privilege of car
rying musket, we do not know how it
would effect us, other than the tnusket
would be too heavy for our diminutiae
form. and the examining surgeon seeing
our Tom Thumb dimensions, should give
us a clearehse upon that score. But
then with the rest Of our friends we await

MARRIED.
At Philadelphia Pa, on Sunday Aug
2l5t, by Rev. Df. Einhorin. Joseph op.
penhammer Merchant Of this village, and
Miss Caroline Loeb, Of Philadelphia.
We knew Joe, had started east to pur-
chase Dry Goods. but we never dreamed
Of his bringing back with him package
done up in such a form. But the thing
is did, and Joe, has invested his all in
the blissful sea of matrimony. And just
to think marrying on the eve of draft,
but we presume, lie will claim an e&emp-
ton under the workings Of an old law in
stituted and established by Moses. and
which rays, "When a man has taken Il
new wife, he shall not go out to war.
neither shall anything be put upon him.
but he shall be free at home one year
and shall cheer up his wife which he
hath taken" We do not know how this
law as applied tc the laws of the reign OF
Abraham will work, but think Joe is
clsarly entitled to exemption.

SCHOOL PIC MIC.

SCHOOL PIC MIC.
Last, Saturday was a day long to be
remembered in North Sycamore. As
it was previously announced, there was
given to the students of the school, in
the Gibson district, by their teacher, Miss
johnson, Pic Mic, or day of social
reunion.
Idleness afforded us an opportunity Of
attending, and we have had no reason to
regret. that we we're there. We were not
acquainted with the particular location,
and riding along in search Of the same,
our ears caught the sound Of voices, and
turning our eyes in the direction, we be-
held floating in the breeze, the ensign of
our nationality,
"The flag of the free hearts; hope and Il h,no,
BY angels halids to valor giveli"
floating above the heads Of the embry Is
defenders of our country. 1t seemed sig
nifcant, and justly worthy of commen-
dation. Thither we reinod our steed,
and shortly stood among the group which
had met to see and hear from the throng
Of juvenile, who neatly attired, and with
blooming colntenances, awaited the com.
mencement of the exercises,
The stage erected. was beautifully dec
Grated with flowers and evergreens. In
front Of the stage, stood the long table
upon which the hands Of the fair ones
had arranged the viands in the most
tempting style. Everything in abun-
dance that the appetite could desire. In
the rear of the stage cluster OF Amer
ica's young sons were gathered around
miniature cannon the echoes Of which
reverate along the wooded slope until lost
in the limited eSpanse whilst little
further on MAY be seen those more ripe
in years gathering around swing ar
ranged for the occasion, upon which a
blushing maid and home patriot are en-
joying each others society, and praying
that the draft may be suspended, 4 tap
upon the drum announcsd the houc for
gathering around the. table. After pay
i.
ing due RESPECTS to the contents of the
same, the crowd gathered around the
stage to listen to the exercises of the oc.
casion; which consisted of songs, decla-
nations, dialogues and essays. The songs
were rendered in telling manner; the
declamations were eloquent, the dialogues
spicy, and the essays well composed for so
youthful minds.
Many Of the audience stood on tip toe
in amazement, whilst listening, scarcely
believing their own ears, with regard to
the degree of talent manifested in their
productions. 1t was but an evidence Of
what can be accomplished by energetic
action and a lively interest," by teacher
and parents. We hope The lesson will
be remembered BY ali Who we're ssi, present.
and they will act accordingly in the fu
ture; looking to the district school not on
ly as primary effort. but where suffi
cient knowledge Of the science may b.
obtained to enable and qualify the stu
dent for usefulness and renown.

AT HOME.
We were pleased to meet on the street
a few days ago, Tom Kirby, son of our
estiinable friend, Col. Kirby, Sr., but re.
GREETED to see him looking SO thiu and
lank. We were soon informed as to the
reason, he having for some six months,
been suffering with camp d:arrhea. Tom
has been in the service of Uncle Sam for
three years past, as a member Of the 9th
Kansas Cavalry, and was discharged at
Little Rock, Arkansas, on the 18Th Of
Aug. and is now at home for the purpose
of recuperatiny. We hope the air Of Wy
andot county may have beneficial effect
upon him, and he soon be restored to
health again. Tom has seen some fight
ing, and right nobly did he carry him
self through the carnage of the battle
field. May he live many years to enjoy
tie Blessings Of that liberty, his courage
has helped to defend and protect from
traitors hands.

we have examined great number of letters
from some of the most prominent citizens of Cit.

highest terms of DR.. Strickland's Anti Cholera
Mixture for the cure of diarrhea and dysentery.
Tie letters gre. TO long too publish Mr.. Woods,
of Covington, says he was pronounced incura-
BILE by the best doctors in Cincinnati, and one
bottle of DR. Stricklands Anti Cholera Mixture
effected permanent cure after suffering for
months with the worst form Of diarfhea and
dysentery. 49,, ,,,
:, Another says he discharged from the United
States service after suffering in the hospital for
months as incurable, and as a last resource
tried Strickland,s Anti Cholera Mixture he got
we'll directly and has now entered the army a
gain in good health. One man writes he has
cured seven or eight very bad cases of diarrhHa
and dysentery in the barracks he was in with
one bottle of this valuable medicine. In fact
we could fill half our paper with similar items
from these letters. Why does not our govern
meit ses4'a this valuable preparation. Our
army ought to bs turplied with it. 1t is but

Nor THE RIGHT SORT OF PEACE NEGo-
TIATIoNs.-Within the last three yeaks we
have had from various volunteer peaces
makers repeated attempts to open pedce
negotiations with the chiefs Of the rebel
lion. Conspicuous. among these pbilan-
thropic diplomats stand the Rev. JQhh Wes-
ley Greene, who came very near getting
locked up in Wasbingtoni Colorado Jewett,
the man In the moon, and Horace Greeley,
very queer fish, and, lastly, Edmund
Kirke, sensation abolition romance writer
of the school Of "UHcle Toms Cabin" and
the Rev. Cok Jacques, fighting parson of
the style of Parsen Brownlow. Now, all
these men, each. in his peculiar line, are re-
markable characters; but they are not the
men required to initiate movement in be-
half of peace. Professedly acting without
authority, nothing could be expected from
such irresponsible customers but the noto-
riety or newspaper profits Of nine days
wonder, which is, perhaps, all they have
desired, from j. Wesley Greene down to
Kirke and Jacques. Let the experiment
be tried of q duly authorized embassy to
Richmond from the President of the United
States, with proposition Of an armistice,
and we shall doubtless have different re-
suit. JEFF. Davis is too old bird to be
caught with chaff; and, what Is more inn
portant, he turns, with the skill Of sharp
politician, all these irresponsible and bung-
| ling adyenturers to his own advantage, as
the guardian of what he calls Southern
rights.-N. Y. Herald.

The WarNews.

At last we have the secret of Gen. Grants
late movements. The operations on the
north bank of the James were mere feints
in order to deceive the enemy, and the OBJ
ject was most effectually accomplished
Gen. Hancock was sent to make a demon
stration on the north side OF the James for
the purpose OF leading The rebels " believe
that the theater of war was to be transfer
red to the vicinity of Fort Darling, The
point he secured on the 14th inst. was one
from which heavy blows could be struck at
the defenses of Richmond should it become
desirable to do so. Lee probably saw this
and reinforced the rebel position, at the
same time that reinforcements were sent to
Gen. Hancock, in order to enable him to
hold his newly acquired ground. The
movements of our forces were so carefully
concealed, however. that it was Necessary
that something should be done to develope
our strength and determine If our lines In
front of Petersburg had been materially
weakened. Hence the heavy artillery firing
on Wednesday, which was but feebly replied
to for sufficient reasons. The objective point
was therefore carefully concealed from the
enemy, and the demonstrations of Hancock
toward Fair Oaks and beyond Malvern Hill
tended still more to blind the rebel Gener-
ais as to the real purpose. When every
thing was prepared the Fifth corps was
thrown around rapidly, and accomplished
the object of seizing the Weldon railroad
almost unmolested. No troops were found
there to oppose the execution of the move
ment, and operations for the siege of Pc
tersburg were promptly inaugurated. 1t
does not appear that the lines recently Sc
cured by the Second corps have been sur
rendered, or that the troops have been with
drawn to the south bank of the James, 1t
Is represented that the canal is progressing
favorably, by which we infer that the ditch
ing Of Dutch gap is something more than
q mere experiment. General Warren, up
on advancing from the position he occupied
on the Weldon ROAD, met the enemy in
force, and had severe engagement, The
Tenth corps also appears to have been in-
volved In the movement, and lost quite
heavily. Nearly every day last week bat
ties Of greater or less magnitude were
fought, consequent upon the maneuvers of
our various corps.

AS a specimen of the management of
humbug political Generals in general and
Of Major General WAsHBURN in particular,
the telegraph reports that the guerrilla
FoRREsr rode through the city of Memphis,
and nearly succeeded in capturing the COM
manding General. WAsHBURN is SO busy
managing the municipal affairs of Memphis
and deyising plans toaggravate the 'secesh'
that he neglects to protect the town by
picket guards or other precautions, and
thus opened the way for this disgraceful
affair.
LINCOLN is isreported as having dispatched
peace commissioners to Richmond. This is
probably gold gambling rumor.
