THE REASON

Our ticket last year. was defeated
not because We lacked voters, but be.
cause a large lot of our tickets were
destroyed on account Of n change in
the nomination, for Senator. Quite
a batch of ti"kets were detained at
Columbus and destroyed, owing to
the mistake in our Senatorial nomin.
alton, and hence, many Soldiers did
not receive the County ticket.
We have voters enough to elect
our wJole ticket, and we hope to
have the unspeakablc pleasure of an
nonncirg in o :tober next, that our
whole county ticket is triumphantlv
elected. And then, with Col. Walk
er in Congress, and Old Abe. in the
Presidential Chair, we think-well we
think our old hat would go up.

GOV. BRoUGH,s PROCLAMATION

Gov. BrouglI has issued a procla-
nation to the people Of Ohio, concern
ing the proposed resistance to tho
draft. He tells them what conspira-
cy and treason are, and what the pun
ishment is for these crimes. He an
pcals to the reason and sober Judge
mcnt OF the people, and counsels obe
dience to the law. lie tells them in
plain terms, that any resistance to
the enforcement of the draft, or any
other law, will be promptly met by
the power of the Government. and
put down. That the Government il
not rs weak as some suppose, but on
the contrary it is strong; and more
able than it ever was to suppress in.
surrection and crush ont armed and
organized resistance.
He does not threaten, but calmly
warns all Of the punishment which
Will surely follow and overtake the
law breaker.
Those who have been dupcd into
secret lodges by unprincipled Cop
perheads, and who have rashly enrol
led themselves with the sillv creatures
whD coIaSol anl talk of resistance
to the draft, would do well To read
the proclamation and take warning
in time-to be forewarned is to be
forearmed.

and that power is pledged to the en-.
forcement Of the laws of the land.

County Union Ticket
COUNTY CONy ENTION.

The Union County Convention
held in the Court House last Saturday
was one of the best ever held in this
place Every township was tully
represented by true working, earnest
Union men, who seemed to be actua
ted by an earnest resolve to do their
duty in this critical hour. The Court
House was filed with delegates, and
it did one good to sec such body of
men assembled together--men who
have laid aside party lines and party
distinctions, and who arc. united for a
common purpose, viz the mainte-
nance of the Union against all oppo.
sing elements. A deep earnestness
and determined spirit seemed TO
characterize the meeting There was
no faltering-no fceblencss--cach one
seemed hopeful and all were animated
with common purpose to relax no
effort in the cause.
There was no such blubbering for
peace as was witnessed ut the butter
nut mceting--no such whimpcring
about the draft, was there seen. No,
indecd--we say it proudly. The I'm
ion men of Hancock came together,
and without dissenting voice, de-
clared themselves for the Union and
the flag, and ready to furnish every
thing necessary for their success.--
They indorsed the Administration of
Abraham Lincoln. They sai theywere
for the Union first and when it was
triumphant, then they were for peace.
They denounced in plain terms the
reasonable conspiracy recently eN
posed, headed by leading democrats,
and characterized their midnight con
clave as revolutionary and dangerous.
They expressed confidence in the ar
my and gratitude to our brave SOL
diers.
The resolutions were carried with
n shout of approval. BY this time
the enthusiasm of the delegates was
fairly aroused, good ticket had been
nominated, ,sterring resolutions adopt.
ed--when a motion was made that each
delegate consider himself a commit.
tee of ono To see that every school
district is thoroughly organized, and
that each one pledge himself to work
for the success of the ticket, and af-
ter a few remarks by the chairman,
the vote was taken, each delegate ris-
ing to his feet, and raising his right
hand. The scene was impressive, and
the determination and unanimity man
ifested indicative of good results.

MORAL POW FR.

Ihere Is a certain all prevailing
influence at work in this country
winch operates silently, yet powerful
ly upon the hearts and consciences
of men, softening down their asperi
ties and leading them to purity o.
private and public life. This potent
element is not the offspring of politi
cal strife Its greatest achievement.
are IN the nobIer walks oflire; its ira
ces are seen in the family, in the socia
circle. in the Church Here it is al
ways found; here is the secret spring
of its motion. But it does not sta,
here always; its influence extends &c
the whole outward conduct of tho
man. 1t regulates his disposition
controls his wicked nature, ,estrains
his passions, purfles his purposes
elevates his aims, and thus, by re
forming the man, it elevates society
and purifles and emhellishes the whole
structure of Government upon which
Society for its stability, depends.
1t tpurilies the politics of the coun.
try.
1t removes dcmagogueism aud sup.
plies patriotism.
1t discards treachery and invites
fidelity.
1t hates oppression, and loves lib
erty.
1t despises deception, and holds to
truth.
1t makes political honesty insepa-
aable from common honesty.
This efficient active agent thus n,
work is n moral potecr in the land
Its basis is pure heart, and its
evidence is pure life. All classes
must recognize it; no party need ig-
more it; it pulls down, and builds up,
and it molds and fashions soci ETY. for
the enjoyment of the greatest good.
And yet, there is one party, one
class OF men who have uniformly
treated it with derisiou- secuted it
from their councls-discarded its
teachings, and ridiculed its ministers
and votaries. We refer to the so.
balled Democratic party.
Its leaders abuse the Church with
out stint and slander its teachings -
Ninety nine hundredths of all the
malicious attacks upon Churches,
come from these apostles Of modern
Democracy. Surely, it is a sham de-
mocracy-an irreligious democracy
and one that can only succeed by an
appeal to all the baser passions of hu-
man nature.

AUGUST 26 On Thursday after

the positions about three miles he.
low the Station, from which the lst
division was withdrawn on Wednes-
day night, when they were attacked
by strong force under tbe rebel Gen
Anderson. They returned till their
right connected with the lst Division,
which, under Gen. Miles, occupied
the intrenchments in front of and
around the Station. Our line was a
crescent, the right flank being nearly
at right angles with the railroad the
center little beyond and nearly par.
allel with it, and the left receding from
it. Two regiments belonging to the
lst brigade, ID division, were posted
outside the works upon the extreme
right, and took any returning party
from that direction in the flank and
rear. Four assaults were made upon
our position, the first directly upon
our front This charge, as also the
next two, in which the enemy threw
themselves upon. our more extreme
right, was repulsed with n fearful
slaughter of the enemy. The fourth
assault was one of the most desper-
ate struggles of the war. The mass
ed troops of the enemy were thrown
with wild impetuosity upon our ex.
treme right, while vigorous attack
was made simultaneously upon our
left. Hardly shot was fred by the
enemy, who were instructed to re-
serve their fire till they reached our
works. The two regiments on the
outside of the works at the right,
were driven wildly back, but other
wise our line did not move. We pour
ed death dealing fire of musketrv
and artillery into their ranks, and
their repulse again seemed certain -
Forward, however, they came, driven

TUE THING DONE!

The Democratic Convention at Chi
cago nominated Geo. B. Mcclellan
for President and Pendleton of Ohio
for Vice. The Democracy seem to
have been struck with confusion this
year The idea or asking the Sons
Liberty--the L Draft Resisters, and the
unconditional Peace men, to vote for
the originator of Drafts,
the msn who is anxious TO carry on
the war, il he can iun the machine, is
is ludicrous in the extreme. Won't
it be funny to hear the great Gribben
"hooral," for Mcclellan. How will
the pacific Cass and the meek Peace
men about Houktown and Vanlue like
the idea of marshalling under mill
Iary chieftain9 How will those who
have been arming to resist the draft,
like it. Good Heavens what mix.
