THE COLES COUNTY AFFAIR.

The deadly hatred which the COP.
perheads bear towards Union sol.
diers, has, shown itself, not only by
the two murders in our midst, but by
similar ones throughout the State,
and more recently by the massacre
in Coles county, Illinois. Nf. James
W. Sheahan, one of f55&ditors of
the Chicago Post. a mecratio pa
per, has written a latI3r from the
scene of the insurreetfon. giving the
particulars of the AFFAIR." was the
outbreak of a Copperhead conspira-
cy hatched some months since, the
leaders of which were in correspop
dence with the rebels, and the object
of which was to give them aid and
comfort A military organization
had been formed, calling itself The
Mighty Host" which had been drill
ing for several days before the at
tack upon the soldiers at Charleston,
with the avowed purpose of killing
Union soldiers. The attack was
premeditated and the soldiers were
murdered without the least provoca-
ton.
. These things show the spirit of the
Copperheads. They are rebels with
out the excuse Of the Southern reb-
els, and only lack the power to en-
broil the loyal States in civil war and
overthrow the Government.-Lanc
caster Gazette.

AFTER THE RAIN.

Oh, how / love to see the sun,
After long and dreary rain,
Burst forth in his glorious splen dor;
On the chilly earth again.
Kindling emotions warm and tender,
After cold dark rain.
We sit and brood in quiet thought.
With feeling half sadness, halt pain,
Whiie from the clouds fall thick and fast,
The pattering drops of rain;
But warm feelings of pleasure revive at last,
When the sun shines out again.
The buds burst forth to meet the rays,
As they slant from the upper deep,
All nature takes up a song of praise,
As she wakes from her winters sleep;
Slowly awoke by the genial blaze,
When the skies have ceased to weep.
Oh.the dear old sun-the kind bright sun,
How his warm rays sink in the heart,
Expanding and lighting our darkened lives,
AS their slow beating rains depart;
Refreshing our weary withered lives,
Sending hope to Illumine the heart
The hopes that lay in our bosoms dead,
From the beating winter rain,
That must fall on every human head,
With leaden weight of pain;
With heavy weight no tears We shed
Have power to lift again.
Yet human heart! there's brighter sun
Than that which lightens our earth,
A sun that will dry all the wintry rain
That falls on thy desolaie hearth;
And give thee heritage fire. from pain,
Secure from the ills of earth.

THE REASON FOR IT.-About the
richest reason assigned for the gen.
eral defeat of the Peace Democracy
at the spring elections, is given fy
the Warren Trumbull Coz Constitu-
tim. 1t says:
There was very little interest felt
in the elections throughout the coun-
try-the Democrats seemed to be
reserving their strength for the fall
campaign
That is as clever as the reason
assigned by an independent candi-
date for the Legislature in New York,
who used slips with his name 10
paste over the names of rival can
didates. When asked why he had
not been elected, he replied that he
would have been, "but the id
things wouldn't stick" The Con-
stitution must be careful of its re-
served strength; it may not stick

April llth 1864.


Editor JoUrnaE-Allow me through
the columns of your interesting pa.
per to state few things which may
perhaps be of interest to many of its
readers throughout Gallia County
who have friends in this regiment
Good health is prevailing in the reg
iment with the exception of a few
cases of measles and small -pox. We
have just returned from Summers
vile. We had a very hard march
through the mud and rain, but we
are all right again and ready for an
other move 1t is thought that we
will leave here soon and advance
upon the enemy a little, that is we
will move our lines a little further
out. We understand that the rebs.
have given US six weeks to get out
of the valley; they say if we are not
out before that time they will help us
out; well we will have to see them
before they can scare us; they have
tried it once before and failed, and
the next time you hear from them
they will fail. / do not think that
they can drive us out of Fayetteville
We have good Notifications here
and are able to hold them against
any force that they can bring in
Western Virginia. / believe it is
the general opinion that the war will
close this summer, but it is hard to
tell; the rebs. are very spunkY and
they are whipped but they might as
we'll give up now without any more
fighting, for we are bound to whip
them entirely out, if it takes us fif
teen years, for | know that we can
fight as long as they can, and we are
in better humor for fighting now
than when we came out. We will be
very apt to get q trial at them be-
fore long, and you may rely upon it
we will give them the best licks in
the shop. Pleaseegive this space in
your paper. so that my friends may
know how l am getting along for it

Us. COURT AT WHEELING

The annexed report of the doings
ofthe United States Court in Wheel
ing, we copy from the Wheeling In
telligencer of the Sth inst.
AGAINST THE REBEL GEN
JENKINS.
In the afternoon two judgments
were rendered by the Court against
Albert G. jenkins, a General in the
rebel army-one for S5,525, and the
other for 100000. Capt. W. C..
Thorpe, testified that he was robbed
by Jenkins in jackson county, ou the
Sd of September last, of So, 5,525.-
The Captain exhibited the following
receipt for the money which he re-
ceived at the time.
HEADQUARTERS, CAVALRY BRIGADE,l
RIPLEY, JACKSON Co., Sept. 8, '63.
At the request of Capt. W. C.
Thorpe, of the 18th q. S. Infantry,
l certify that 1 have taken from him
the sum of five thousand five hun
dred and twenty five dollars in Uni
ted States Treasury notes, the prop
erty of the U. S. Government.
A. G. JENKINS,
Brig. Gen. Oomd'g.
The other claim was for the des-
truction of Government property in
Buchanan. Upshur county, in Sep
tember, 1862, during the Jenkins
raid of that fall. Several witnesses
testified that Jenkins men destroyed
at least S250,000 worth of property,
consisting of arms and Quartermas
ter and Commissary stores, and that
the rebels left the streets of the town
strewed with hundreds of bags of
coffee and beans. AS above stated
judgments were rendered for the
Government in both cases.

ONE CENT REWARDM

The Charleston Plaindealer, in its
extra issue of last week, after giving
a concise, and very graphic account
of the slaughter of our soldiers by
the Copperheads, in that town, on
the 2Sth ult-, says:
Col. Mitchell, of the 54th Reg t
Ills. Vols, offers a reward of OSE
Big RED CENT for the arrest and de-
livery to him of Hon. Jsth theRIn f ber ber15f Of

The ORIGINAL CoPPERHEAD.

As the cleverness of the Copper
heads at crawishing, change of base,
and blowing hot and cold in the same
breath, is just now attracting public
attention, it may not be amiss to show
that this cleverness is -ot only not
without precedent, but natural to the
species. A friend has kindly fur
nished us with an extract from Haz
ards Pennsvlpania Register for August
1881, which sheds abundant light
upon the matter. Here it is:
The Lebanon BEssAcHrER of last veek

uished Southern men, who hav
gone there since they seeded from
the Federal Government, would know
to be lie, as soon as this editoria
reached them, for thousands Of then

But the dispatch we are reviewing
sets forth that the myriads OF derap
ted Yankees put in Old Nick's furna
ces during the last three years, have
become fairly ignited-hence the ex
ira ordinary heat this winterl This
tale about myiads of Yankees having
gone to hell in three years, may do
to tell the deluded people of the
South, who are not allowed to read
or to see loyal papers, but all well
informed men, North or South,
know that there is no country of e.
quail population and extent, on the
face OF God s. green earth, that is SO
largely yepress,sted fv hsH, as is the So
called Southern Confederacy! They
have gone from their army, from the
ranks of the clergy, from the civil
list, and from among their politicians
at fearful ratel Our latest grape
yine from that Confederate Depot is,
that upon the recent arrival there of
several distinguished leaders of the
rebellion, the Devil called hastily for
more fuel, as the fire was about to be
extinguished! Floyd and Yancey
are said to have come forward and
filled the furnace with Confeder-
ate money-whereupon the Devil
threatened to kick them out of hell.
He said he favored rebellion; he IA
vored lying, and all sorts of swind-
ling, but that he would not degrade
himself and scandilize hell by recog-
nizing such currency as that. as fit
for any purpose!
But the Richmond Bronch of He'll
winds up this article by assuring the
people of the South that his Satanic
Majesty will not harm so able a CO.
adjutor as we are; and that turning
from us, Old Nick will order rooms
for Lincoln, SewaId and Butler, with
fresh beds of live Goals! This is the
rub. We have kept the furnaces of
Secesh rather hot for comfort during
the past three years. We are fully
compensated 10 know that we have
made the rebels feel the effeots of our
blows. Buffers mastery manage /
ment of the she devils in New Orleans
has excited their anger against him.
Stewards superior diplomatic abbili-
ties, and his successful management F.
of England and France, the rebel
leaders can never forgive. But
why the editor of the Richmond or
gan should be angry with Lincoln,
we are at loss to know. Lincoln's

THE ELECTIONS.
CHAs. c. JAMES.
Co. A. 9lst Reg. o. V. 1.

The result of the recent elections in
some of the Northern States is very
important, as indicating the determi-
nation of the people to sustain the
Administration in it's conduct of the
war. By their votes at the polls. the
people have declared their unalteI-
able attachment to the Government, t,
have placed the stamp Of their indig-
nation upon copperheadism, and have
thus encouraged and strengthened the
brave soldiers of the Union army in
the field. An election defeat of the
copperheads in single State, is worth
to the country. and to the army, as
much as a Union victory over the
rebels in u well and hard fought bat
tie. If we would put down the rebel
lion the Government must be sustain
ed. Our enemies over the other side
Of the lines well understand this prop
osition, and hence they have hoped
that the party known as copperheads
might succeed in the recent elections
But their hopes Of aid and comfort
from this quarter are blasted. The
people will sustain the Administration
the people now and forever repu-
diate the disloyal and diabolical cop
perheads. and if they go into a presi-
dental election against the Admins
tration or Union party. they will be
so overwhelmingly defeated and an
initiated that no Gabriel's trumpet
sound can ever call them to life.
