TnE JUBILEE OVER THE ELECTION

THE JUBILEE OVER THE ELECTION
The meeting of rejoicing and con-
graduation over the October election,
held at the Court House on last Satur-
day night, was the finest meeting of
the campaign. 1t wos more like a So
cial gathering ina parlor than public
meeting in apubic building. Every
body's eyes sparEled, overybody's face
wore n smile, andthe utmost good feel
ing, and, (wc do not know what else
to call iD hilarity, prevailed A large
number of ladies were present, and the
American flag was hung about in pro-
fusion.
WM. P. CREED, Esq, delivered the
first speech. His friends pronounce it
one of the best, il not the best, effort of
his life. With characteristic nervous
power and dignifed cloquence, he con-
graduated the people upon their vic
tory, spoke ip worthy words of the
cause, of the brave soldiers, and of that
good and honest man who is at the
head of the Government, and denounc-
cd in the severest terms tho infamous
rebellion wagcd against the life Of the
Republic.
Mr.. Creed was followed by Colonel
CoNNELL and JOHN D. MARTIN, Esq,
in short, but pointed and telling speech
es. Everybody went away feeling
that it was good to have been there,
and expecting to have another jubilee,
only on grander scale, after the Sth
| of November.

RED CROSS.

All subscribers owing us for year
or more, will, this week, find their
papers marked with red cross. 1t
is the easiest and most modest way VIC
have of informing them that they
arc earnestly requested and expected
to call in person or remit by letter i'm
mediately.
Publishers are compelled to keep up
a-dunning and a-dunning. They
are usually expected to issue a pa,
per which requires the constant en-.
ployment of five or six hands, the eX-
penditure of thirty or forty dollars
cash every week Tor paper, the inces,
SAINT outlay of money for ink, coal
rent and incidertals, besides living al
tho present high prices, and then tc
to rat a year or tro for their money
We have a good list of subscribers
and all they need is to be informed
when their time expires.
City subscribers will be called on
in person.

SPITE AT THE CANNON.

Thcfe is nothing annoys the Copper
heads so much as firing tho cannon
over ShOridan's victories. Thcy arc
really criminal in their spite, They
stole NIcK's cannon because it almost
split its throat roaring for Sheridan 8
first victory in tho Valley, and, after
tho ncws of his second victory, ro-
ccived on Friday last, they broke into
Mr.. DEyoL's Machine Shop, and spik-
cd the new cannon which had just
been completed. Their work, how.
ever, was imperfectly done, and the
spike was removed on Saturday morn
ing. We hope the sncakiDg rebels
may be apprehended and sent to the
Penitentiary for burglary.

Editors Gazette The following is
the result of the election held in this
command on yesterday. Thirty-cight
counties were represented. We poll
ed 24O votes, of which Luther day re-
ceivcd l72; Van Trump 6S. Tho coun
tics stood as follows. Fairfield, Union
10, Dem. 4; Hooking, Union 61, Dem
10; Vinton, Union 3, Dem. 0; Pcrry,

Dom. 0. The vote polled in tho re-
naming counties, ranged from 2 to 10
votes-all Union except Montgomery
and Franklin, Montgomery gave the
Vallandigham party 2 majority, and
Franklin G, which is even better than
l had expected three weeks previous
to the election, as the German compa-
nies--although good soldiers, and
strong i'm their love for tho Unioh-yet
some Of them would almost consider it
crime to vote with anything that
does not style itself the Democratic
party. Very respectfully,

traI Committee, for the campaign, will
be held on Saturday, Ncvember 9th,

Cheering for McCIc Han.

An officer of the 95th Regiment, re-
turned from Sherman's army since the
election, says that on election day the
rebels demonstrated all day upon our
lines to prevent voting, and that they
charged cheering for Mcclellan. Gen.
Sherman had polls opened in an am
bulance which moved along the line'
Another soldier, lately returned
from the 18th Regiment, furnishes US
the information, that when the rebel
skirmishers charged our lines at Big
Shanty, they chcered for McClcllan
Also when they charged the forts at
Rcsacca they gave three cheers for Nc
Ciclldn. Another significant fact he
mentions. On Il stockado near Tun-
mel Hill, Ga, he saw the names Of Nc
Clellan and Pendleton put there by
some of our soldiers who were Nc
Clellan men, And that these soldiers
ran to Chattanooga, n distance OF 81
miles, without seeing an enemy OF
firing a gun.
