FELLOW CITIZENS OF ONO AND OF
CINc.YNAT1: 1t is perhaps well that
your abundant joy should be tempered
blythe knowledge that somebody was
beaten in Ohio at the late October
election. You ought to know that
there arc dark places left in this State,
in order that you may not relax your
energy, or flag in your fervor for the
good cause.
MuY OHIO SHOULD REJOICE. .
But it is fitting that you, citizens Of
Ohio, should rejoice over the greatest
of all Union victories. Ohio is the
heart of tho Union. To other States
the Union is a blessing; to Ohio It'll a
necessity Imagine, if yon can, the
Union separated, and the line of the
Confcderacy established along the
Ohio river, for there is where it will
come, if it comes at all, Then comes
the struggle for the establishment of q
Northwestern Confederacy /; for once
separate this country into North and
! South, and the separation will not
stop there, It will have only begun

Why, gold appears 10 surrender

| WDy, Bolu appears 70 surrender
Who cares now for the argument
against the proclamation? The rebels
themselves seem about to issue o coun-
ter proclamation Laughter and
cheers.) Who cares now for the arg1-
ment Of the debit The people Of this
nation have only to consider that how
ever great may be the national debt,
so long as We owe it to ourselves we
are no poorer, And they have only
to consider further that though we
owed it to. foreign nations, we are
abdndantly able TO pay it. (Cheers)
Why, these old fashioned notions about
a nations being crushed by q national
debt such as ours, belong to the past.
We are new nation. We have found
igold. enough to pay the national debt;
yes, we have struck oil enough to pay
1t. (Cheers) ".''''''... .... 1,1.
All these arguments are gone. and
now the enemies of the country, no
longer emboldened BY them, seem only
ANXIOUS to hide themselves from the
Vengeance Of the law. Those who, on
the day of the election, raised high
their crests against the nation, now go
prowIing through the country seeking
only to avoil detection, sure they are
th?t if detected they will be punished. +.
And perhaps it will be best for those
who avoid detection to keep away
from Cincinnati. [Cheers
WHAT OF TIE FUTURE? .rn'
These are some Of the civil fruits of
this victory. What now otthe future?
With an Administration indorsed and
reinforced, We hope to- see things
move on firmly; We expect no hating.
And now shall we come out? This
war can certainly end in but one or
two ways. We have voted to main
tain this Union, war or no war How
then, are. we to have Union, and
peace? In only one oftwo ,ways--ei.
ther that the rebels shall submit to
the laws, or that they shall be CON
quered. I7prefer that they shall be
conquered [Cheelsl Blu: lam young

Judgment. lfthe people prefer to ac-
cept submission, and rcinstate the reb-

no blood on the field, TO murmur,-
The air is. full of rumors that if Sher,
man, with his sharp sword, should
sever the. rebel Confederacy again,
and if the severed parts should con-
cludc to accept ITO Whom it may Con-

from him. Iagreed with him when

SLAVERY AND THE REBELS.

IF Sherman cuts off the Gulf States
from Virginia, and they should sub
nit to the laws, and ask to be rein
stated as States in the Union, perhaps
the people may consent think, how
ever, the people would say to them, if
you come back, you must leave be-
hind you that institution which made
you rebels and traitors. Great ap
plause.] And perhaps, after all, we
need not prolong the contest in order
to hang Jeff Davis, for who is he?
The rebellion conquered, and how long
would he live? The shorter his life
the better for him, and the longer he
lived, the more punishment would be
his. l don't know but that the hang
ling of slavery would be better than
the rebel leaders, for this institution
is the leader of rebellion. 1t is the
arch traitor, and when it dies treason
dies. Cheers Now if they want
to- abandon it--and what o soft word
that is They say Lincoln is an un-
couth fllinoisan, but no French court
ier ever uttered softer words against
his enemies than that. If they want
to abandon slavery, let them abandon
lit, let them kill it themselves, and let
it die as gently and gradually as the
last rose of summer. So les it pass
away, Or if they bring back its body
under the flag, let them bring it back
dead, and lay it on the altar of the
country Applause, But will they
submit ] don't believe they will
Ii seems to me that that Providence
which inspires US TO contend against
them, has hardened. their hearts to
their own destruction, and that they
will fight on until they are conquered
1t would be better for them to submit
slavery does them TO good. They tell
us that without slave labor they can
not raise sugar and cotton. Why, but
for the frosts we oould raise cotton
here; and we can raise sugar, frosts Oh
no frostS. We make better sirup from
sorghum than they make with theil
Southern sun, soil and slaves; and i
| they retain their lands without theil
slaves, in ten years time they will bt
richer than they ever were. Under
the inspiration Of free labor, cotton vii
grow fairer fabric, and sugar sweet
er than ever before. Tell me not tha
the earth yields anything to man bet
ter for slave labor than for free. l
/ you say SO, you belle nature herself
for is not nature free? Are not th'
sunlight and the air unshackeled P
Are not the waters and the rolling
earth atliberty and is not man by ma
ture free2 ..'. .'" :
CONQUEST AND OCCUPATION.
j, But if they will not submit, and on
4 Joy with us the blessings of liberty
'then we will conquer them. Cheers,
;. We haven't undertakon to conque
them yet. There are thousands Q
4 good men in the North, who voted q
gainst US this last elostion, on the the
ory that we had not yet offered th
:, rebels reasonable terms of compromise
= Now, five should offer them thes
reasonable terms, and they should dc
: cline, one of the fruits of that polio
