SEND TICKETS TO THE SOLDIERS.
Those of you that have relatives or friends

lose no time in sending sufficient quantity
of the Democratic Electoral Ticket of this

way that you can. See that your County

this matter; let the township and school,

and supply the soldiers from their respec-
tive townships and school-districts with a
great abundance of MCCLELLAN TICKETS.
Don't depend on the State Central Com
mittee to do it-for if you do, the sth of
November will find the Nc CLELLAN soldiers
without the tickets they desire to vote.
Look to it yourselves at home, and make a
sure thing of it: See that every soldier, who
will be at all likely to vote with us, is sup

Cox Defeated.

With feelings of regret we announce the
defeat of Hon. S. $. Cox, our candidate for
Congress, in this, the Seventh Congression-
al District. Let those who can shout over
the defeat of Mr.. Cox and the election of
Sam. Shellabarger, do so. 1t is their privi-
lege. Let their shouts and huZzas rise above
the wailings and lamentations of a mourn
ing people. Let them fling their flags to the
breeze with scull and cross-bOnes painted
thereon in black, and shout in drunken
glee over the triumph of man who will,
for two years, do all in his power to fill the
land with mourning by causing brave men
to be sacrificed for nothing. Let them
shout over the triumph of a man who will
vote in Congress to recklessly squander the
treasure and destroy the liberties of the
people to secure the freedom of the mig
gers. Let them rejoice-but from the
broken family ties, the deserted tenements,
the ruined hopes of thousands OF orphans
tions and mourning.
Be not discouraged or disheartened, Dem
ocrats of Clarke, over the defeat of MIR.
Cox Let the old banner still float in the
breeze, having our principles inscribed
thereon, and with renewed effort fight the
great battle for the Union in November
next. Let no efforts of hirellng pimps or
slanderers--no obloquy or detraction-no
persecution deter you from your purpose.
You have suffered so much and so long,
suffer little more and little longer. so
that the victory may be the more signal.
and its results the more glorious when
achieved. Rally, then, under the banner
over us! Remember that Patriotism de-
mands of us all, that we shall leave no effort
untried that promises to relieve the coun-
try of the great burden upon her, and re-
store our Constitution and Union.-Cldrke

NEW TESTIMONIALS.

In every business or profession, indeed in every
department of science or SKILL there is always some
acknowledged h:ad-sOme one who stands out in

He has devoted years Of labor to this speciality, and
is now .reaping the reward Of his industry, The
editorial columns of the IiibWne. Of recent date,
bear witness to the Doctors success in this depart
ment of medicine. We quote the paragraph:
CURE OF DEAF MUTE.-LOuIs LoEwIEsTEIN,

TO this city when he was about two years old. Soon

dumb. For nearly ten years he was mute. unable
to hear the loudest voice, or to artculate word.
About one year ago he was placed by his parents in
the hands OF DR.. LIGHTHILL, who has so far sue
ceeded in restoring to him his lost powers Of hear
ing and utterance that he can converse with those
who speak to him distinctly and deliberately. Dur
ing the past four or five months he has been under
the tuition of Mr.. BENNEcKE, and has made consid-
erable progress in reading and arithmetic"
Having been supplied with the lads address. we
further Investigated tho matter, and discovered
that, previous to calling on DR.. LIGHTHILI, the
youths was considered hopeless, and he was for
two years an inmate of the Deaf and Dumb Asy-

Union College, Schenectady, in published letter
tenders his gratitude to Dr. LIGHTHILI for treating
successfully his case of deafness. Rev. FRED. 3.

The Immense Election Frauds in
Indiana.

The celebrated Kickapoo election frauds
in Kansas, when the Cincinnati Directory
was used for poll list, have been fairly
surpassed by the late election in, Indiana.
Only think of indianapolis, with popula-
tion of twenty-five thousand, giving vote
of ten thousand! In the same ratio Gin
cinnati ougat to poll eighty thousand votes
instead of the 10000 she has just cast.
This is a specimen OF what transpired all
over the State, and its very statement is ar
gument enough to show the fraud. 1t Is
melancholy to think that there is anybody
who will rejoice over triumph procured
by such means. 1t is triumph of dcgra-
dation that should bring sorrow to those
engaged in it when they reflect calmly
upon it. If any moral effect can be had ia
vorable to Lineoln's cause from the late
election in Indiana, the party has sunk even
lower than we, its enemy, are inclined to
believe.
Such victory will turn out to be worse
than barren. Dust and ashes are not as un-
substantial. No victory won by direct mil
itary interference, and by wholesale impor-
tation of illegal votes, and by stuffed bal
lot-boXes, can be permanent, or bring any
thing else in its train but ultimate defeat,
ignominy and shame. 1t can not be posi-
BILE that the Indiana swindle can be perpe-
trated again within month, and the reac-
ton against it must carry the State for Nc
Clellan in Nevember.-C Cincinnati Enquirer.

i affirm that the abolition of slavery ID
/. the very beginning Of the great. trouoie
about the negro. win our Abolition ieau-
ers say to the people, that they are IN Iavor
of setting free nearly four million OF saves,
and throwing upon them all the Durthens
and responsibilities equally with the wlllte
people, and then deny them the privileges
and encouragements enjoyed by the white
people? win these leaders deny that, with
equal responsibility, equal privileges anu

win they deny that, to subject the black

and equal responsibilities, but to deny them
equal advantages and encouragements, VIII
forever make them low, miserable people
"a curse to themselves, to the whites, ana

them? -..
If slavery is abolished, then come the
questions: Shall the black man be allowed
to vote? Shall he be allowed to hold office
Shall he enjoy social equality with the
white mar? /? and a hundred other questions
which for generations to come would curse
our political, social and religious relations.
Tie questions want to put at these Alb
olitionists are these: Arc you willing to
free the negro, throw upon him equal bur
thens and responsibilities with the white
people, and then deny him equal privileges
and advantages or do you propose to make
the negro the white mans equal in point of
responsibility, and also in point of political,
social and religious privileges, advantages
and encouragemonts?
If ever the negro race is made free, we,
must submit to process of the most infa-
nous political demagogucry In the way OF
new experiments for the elevation Of the
negro, that the world ever saw. l repeat,
the abolition of slavery is the very begin
ming of trouble about the negro.

GREELEY's PATmoTIsM.-Horacc Greeley
opposed the denomination OF Mr.. Lincoln,
on the ground that it would give cohesion
and venom to the rebellion. He said:
"We believe the rebellion would have
lost something of its cohesion and venom
from the hour in which it was known that
a new President would surely he inaugu-
rated on the 4th of March next"
And now, with his accustomed patriot
ism, Mr.. Greeley Is doing his best to pre-
vent any loss Of cohesion or venom by his
brother secessionists. But If signs don't
fail, there ,ciU be "a new President surely
inaugurated on the 4th Of March next"

We like the way the Cuyahoga Democ-
racy are going ahead. After making gain
of nearly three thousand at the late elec-
ton, they are up and at it again. Here is
what The Cleveland Plain Dealer of Satur-
day evening says:
"We are rejoiccd to learn that the Demo-
cratic County Central Committee at its
meeting last evening determined to have an
active and energetic canvass of the county;
Meetings Will be appointed in the several
townships and able speakers selected to
address the people. Documents VIII be dls-
tributed and every means taken 10 enlignt-
EN- the public upon the great issues at stake
in the pending contest. The noble work
already performed by the CENTRAL and
WARD MCCLELLAN CLUBS OF the city, shows
what activity, energy, pluck, and perse-
yerence, with such glorious cause as we
have to battle for, can do. Let the good
work go on. Let every man exert his ut
most to secure success and rich reward
will follow in the regeneration of the coun-
try and the preservation of its imminently
ieopardized liberties. Up and arm for the
fight"
That is the way to do it. Let the Demo-
cratic County Central Committees all over
the State follow the gallant example OF the
Cuyahoga Central Committee; let meetings
be held in all the townships and school-dis-
trcts of Ohio; let there be an energetic and
vigorous canvass, and thorough and COM
plete township and school-district organi-
zation-and our word tor it. the State VIII
be entirely redeemed, and her electoral

How Indiana wa. Carried.

We are informed by reliable gentleman
from Louisville, that whole regiment of
Massachusetts soldiers voted in Jefferson
vile, Indiana, just opposite that city, at the
late election. In Greensburg many soldiers
voted several times around, without any
disguise, as we understand. In Indianapo-
lis the total vote is nearly equal to the whole
male population Of the city, children and
boys under twenty-one years Of age includ-
cd. Not less than 10000 illegal and fraud
uent votes were put in for Morton and his
ticket in the State. Take them out, and
Indiana is overwhelmingly Democratic.

The laundering and malignant ignoram-
us who is hired to do the editing OF the
Ouartermastcr's Journal in this city, has the
audacious meanness to insinuate that the
Address of the Democratic National Com
mittee, printed in this paper on Friday, was
charged and paid for under an advertising
contract. The old simpleton knew better
than this, but he wrote the lie deliberately,
in order, if possible, to bring The STATES
MAN to the degraded level of HURTS Jour
nal which publishes nothing without being
paid for it, not even the Presidential ticket
which it pretends to support. Everybody
in the city knows that The Journal was
rotten institution, and utterly worthless un-
til its proprietor, HURT, became a Quarter
master, cheated the Government, and secur-
ed the patronage of the Administration for
its advertising columns. The machine is run
upon the lawless and wicked gain of its
owner in the Commissary Department; and
the imbecile professor of billiugsgate, who
retails his stupid SANDERS through its edito-
rial columns, receives his weekly stipend in
greenbacks stained with the blood of SOL
ders cheated out of their just dues by a
man convicted of pecuation. He is apretty
specimen to charge the Editors of this paper
with being paid to publish news matter of
interest to our readers, which he will not
publish in his mercenary sheet without
money, and dare not print from choice.

The candidate of the party of "high
moral IDEAS" all the deccncy and respec-
liability, &C., for Governor in Illinois, is a
rare specimen of the genteel Abolitionist.
His name is OGLEsBY, and he is regarded
by the Abolitionists as the perfect embodi-
ment of their principles and morals. The
st. Louis Republican, which paper had re-
porter with OGLEsBY during the fore part
of the canvass, says:
At Carrollton, Oglesby devoted ten OF
fifteen minutes of his argument to prove
that he was not drunk at Jacksonville a
few days previous, as rumor had repre-
sented, and he said the person who circu-
| lated such a rumor was "G-d id peace
sneak, and snotty nosed son of a b-h.'
His speeches abound in expressions of this
sort to such an extent as to outrage all de-
cency.
