2,O30,7is MEN!

Tho above are the figures given in tn,
last Adveriiser, the organ of the Val
landighamites in Seneca county. As tc
number, we believe, they are nearly cor

In his disloyal remarks, he takes gooc
care not to state to his readers the caus,
of all these men being called out, and OF
whom the blame rests, but like skulk
ing hound in the hour of midnight, he
publishes a garblcd and fraudulent state
mcnt by which the readers of the A drer.
tiSer would be deceived. II the editor i
an honest manih he will let the public know
who was the cause of all those men being
called outl Who inauguratcd this wick.

ishcd from his native State, by men ofhs
own political party, after II fair and i'm
partial trial! These are facts! Facts,
too, that will be recorded in history, and
read by generations in America and
abroad for centuries to come! Why Is
it that the Advertiser is so bitterly oppos-
cd to putting down this war, that was
ushcrcd upon the country by the corrupt
and wicked leaders of his own party -
What object has this editor, this con-
tcmptiblc coppcrhcud in view! Does he
expect to secure u more lucrative or hon
orOblc position than the one he now holds,
which he secured through meanncss aud
sneakishncss, during the absence of
100000 brave soldiers from the State of
Ohio, in the army Of the Union, fighting
for the protection OF the Old Flag, and
the comforts of this aSS.ninc wretch is
now enjoying! Docs he expect to obtain
something that will benefit him moro in
pccuniary point! OF course he does!
lie is mean enough, in political point,
"to sell his own birthright, for n mess of
potosh!" lie is a copparhcnd Of !hc worst
character and deserves the frowns and
condemnation of every good and loyal
citizen in Seneca county.
In tho same article ho attempts to give
an official statement of the loans and en-
pcnditarcs OF the war to some time, lut
does not say Up TO what date. Those fig
urcs that this NaIlandighnm coppcrhcud
