Saturday, August 10th, 1864,
at o'clock, p. NJ, on the political questions Of
the day. Let there he general turn out
Turn OuT-Wc hope to sec large
crowd at the Democratic meeting next Sat
urday.

GREAT GENERALS. Lincoln two great
est generals are General 7aration and Gen
eral Conscriiption. With them he is fight
ing the South and destroying the North.
SOLD. One day last week, JACOB CHER
RYHoLSEs bought the Wolgamot farm,
three miles east of town, on the Berlin road,
for $4,000.
ANOTHER VICTIM Monday evening
last, LIVINGSTON HAMMOND, who went in
the Hundred Day service as a substitute for
ARCHIBALD UHL, was brought home in his
coffin. He was aged about II years, and a
promising young man.
SLIGHT DIFFERENCE. 1t is estimated
that there are as many Loyal Leaguers in
Lincoln's Bastiles as there are Democrats.
The difference, however, is, that the Demo.
Gratis are in for spite, and the Loyal Lea
gucrs for stealing.
DENIES IT.-Grifhth attempts to deny
that he was instrumental in adding from 20
to 100 men to the quota Of this county. A
man who is mean enough to do an act Of the
kind is not too good to lie about it. You
are guilty, Griffith, and you cannot avoid
the responsibility.
READ Ir.-Don't fail to read the protest
Of II. Winters Davis and Benz. f. Wade
against the usurpation of Lincoln. They
are leaders in the Republican party; but,
like hundreds in every county, they are
compelled to denouncc the imbccility and
dishonesty of Lincoln.

SUppREssING.-Somc of the A. LIN
colin S lickspittles talk of suppressing Dem
ocratic papers in Ohio. If that game is to
be played over again for every Democratic
paper suppressed by the tyrants the people
will suppress an abolition paper.
Nor EXEMPT. Under the coming mcrci-
less conscription the ''only son" of a wild
owed mother though her only support in
her old age, is not exempt. Ifany such arc
unfortunate enough to be drafted, their old
and dependent mothers will be left to starve
for all Abe Lincoln cares.

HURRAu FOR LINCOLN We were sur
prised the other day to hear a man hurrah
for Lincoln. 1t was the first time we heard
anything of the kind this season. Upon
investigation we found that he was a loco
foco hurrahing for Abe to see how it would
sound.
QUERRY.-Is there q man in Holmes
County liable to be forced into the army
who is not opposed to the prosecution of
the war until slavery is abandoned ? If
there are any they keep remarkably quiet
The War Men are exempt from Conscrip-
tion, and care more for the freedom Of the
niggcrs than for the liberties of white men.
For CHICAoo.-We desig starting to
the Chicago Convention Thursday morning
of next week will arrive in the city Thurs
day evening. We would be glad to have all
those who design going from Holmes coun-
ty to 60 at the same time. We expect to
stop at the Metropolitan, and will be pleas
ed to meet many of our western friends who
will doubtless be at the convention
NEVER DEsPAIR.-Many young house
wife has given up in despair after repeated
attempts to make light bread and biscuit
because she had not the right material -
After procuring De Land Chemical Salcra-
tus, there was no difficulty in having light
and wholesome bread So never despair,
ladies', you who have not yet used this Sal
eratus, but call on your grocer to sell it, and
once used, you will have no other
Coon FLoUR.-When people have to
pay the present enormous prices for -four
they like to have a good article. We have
just used a sack manufactured at POWERS
mill, near Bloomfield, and we feel called up
on to say that it was Of superior quality
fully equal to any we have used since we
have been resident of Holmes County
We think it would be well for those who like
good -four to give Powers trial.
"BRowN's BRONCHIAL TRocHEs. -
advertised in an other column, says the
N. Y, Erening Post, are highly rccommen-
ded for public speakers and others, for the
relief of Colds and to clear the Voice.
Their efficacy is strongly attested by Con-
gressmen, Clergymen and Singers, who use
them. Among the certificates to their mer-
its we observe letters from Henry Ward
Beecher, N. P. Willis, f. H. Chapen, and
others of emincnce.
A New ORDER.-It is said that jeff
Davis is about to issue a proclamation that
the Union shall never be restored until the
North abolishes all Abolition pulpits and
suppresses all Abolition ministers these
being a great annoyance to the Southern
people, and it being impossible to have any
permanent peace while they exist. BY this
proclamation, Davis will perfectly match
the wisdom Fold Abe i'm nublishing that
