Gen. Garfield introduced Gen Schenek
to the people of Irumbull County in few
amusing remarks relating to General
schenck's experience among the cheese
dealers and makers Of the Reserve, after
which Gen. Schenck made the address
of the day. The General did not
do himself justice in Cleveland
His speeches, both in Ravenna and War
rem, have been of the most powerful and
thorough-going character. The people
have been exceedingly delighted with the
able and efficient labors which he has
done among them, and have learned To
know him as man of the soundest cali
bre General Schenck dwelt for a short
time upon the character and political
standing of the people of the Reserve. In
political contests, other portions of the
State have always l0okod with calm assur-
ance, to the assistance that was to come
from the freedom-loving intelligent men
and women Of the Reserve. The Union |
meetings which are held this fall, he
remarked, are characterized by solem-
nifty and earnestness Of feeling which have |
never been witnessed in any former cam
paigu. The reasons are obvious. The |
great and important interests now at stake, |
are such as have never before been at
issue The people feel that the fortunes of
the Republic and of liberty throughout |
the world, depend upon the manner in
which they shall sustain the government |
in this hour of trial
In the midst of the great civil war
by which the land is rent there
are two classes of citizens in the North.
The one has a simple creed and plat
form; one that looks to the saving of the
Republic at ali hazards. This is the
the whole ground of the Union party.
The other class of citizens stand on
other ground. Their platform is equally
simple and comprehensive. 1t is simply
that of opposition to the party that are
trying TO save the country. While the
Union party has the rebel down, with
knee upon his breast and fingers upon his
throat, the so-called Democrats, the Cop
perheads, wish to drag us off and let him
up. The issues presented by the Copper
heads are various, and are determined by
the platform, by the letter of acceptance,
and by the antecedents and character of
the candidates-McClellan and Pendleton.

thorough analysis of the duplex charnc
ter of the letter of acceptance; proving
that it meant a little of peace, a little of
wsr-much of both and nothing Of neither.
Mcclellan, instead of running on broad
gauge of war or a narrow gauge of peaoe,
ooes capering about in his little narrow
car. between the two tracks, protfering
his services to all classes of men. But
whatever track he runs on, he reaches
seeessionville, Peaceburg or Rebeltown
General Schenck then entered into one
Of the most complete and powerful analy'
sis Of the causes, origin and growth of th'
war that have ever been made
The great rebellion is only the bale
fnl fruit of the Southern doctrine of Stat
Riubts as invented by Calhoun, as adop
ed bv the South, finally resulting in civ
: war and as now advocated openly an
= brszenly by the copperheads Of the Nortl
n According tothis doctrine we never hav

and so wicked rebellion. The two pi
ties then existing, we're as much divided
