TO UNION MEN.

We have a few words to say to
Union men in regard to the future.
We have this campaign done no.
ble work in this countv--havc made
permanent gains. To be sure in
q few townships some Union men
were lax and did not come up to
the work as they ought, but as q
whole we did gloriously. The work
Is not finished, how, yer. The snake
is scotched--we must finish him.
How is it to be done' Simply by
unceasing, untiring work. Did our
men, all OF them, view the matter in
the right light we have to day ma.
jority in the county. Each and ev-
cry Union man is pers oaally respon
sible for our late defeat. AS we
said before, we did well, but why
did we not do bettcrp Because of
lack Of interest on the part of some.
Wo know of from five TO ten in a
number of townships who did not
so near the polls. Further, no ef-
fort was made to get them there
Why were they not sent for. If they
had not sufficient interest in the sue
cess Of the Union cause to appear
at the polls, proper influences should
be brought to bear on them to bring
them there.
This is said In oil Kindness, but
we mean 1t. We have an honest ma
jonty, and 1t ought to be shown
Our cause is worthy, and it Will win
when our men properly appreciate
the Importance Of working and vo.
tiag--when We are prepared to fol.

No SHAME,

Loyal people often wonder if men
cap be so far gone as to lose all
shame. They can. If it ls not be-
lieved look at the Copperhead party
and be convinced.
Shame is not to he found in it.
If it were possible they would be
ashamed of the way in which they
fought the last campaign. They
stood at no assertion that they
thought would win, no matter how
false and scurrilous. They profess
ed love for the soldier; was it not a

In fact, to sum it all up, they lied

A DEMOCRATIC vICTony.

The Democracy claim a great vic
tory in Connecticut because the right
of suffrage was denied the negro at
the late election. THIS was not q
party matter. Both parties in the
Connecticut Legislature agreed to
submit the question of negro suf-
fragc to the people at the late elec.
ton. IL was not a strict party ques-
ton, and men of both parties voted
for and against it. Democratic vic.
tories are scarce things now. a days,
and they clutch with eagerness at
anything that, by falsifying, they can
torture into a victory. Democratic
stock, like Confederate, is not worth
cent on the dollar, and every one
who invests in it gets bit.
How Democracy longs for victo.

q ION VICTORIES.

It's cheering fact to Union mer
that Union victories have been wor
in Maine, Ohio. Pennsylvania, lows
and 1ndianr. These States say en-
Iphatically that the Union party ha:
been right for the past four years.
that secession Is wrong-that the
Government as formed by our faith
ers was intended to be permanent
one and net subject or liable to be
broken up by one or more Statos,
shorll they be dissatisfied with con
stitutional naotments--that n party
that has sympathised with the rebel
lion as has the Democratic party, is
not worthy tic countenancc of the
people, and that the party that has
brought the country through the re.
belion is fully capable to settle up
the matter, and the terms of re. con.
struction. Further, the soldiers,
who have been the main instruments
in bringing about peace, will not act
against the party that sustained them
while enduring the hardships of war.
We hope the Coppcrhcad Democ-
racy like this decision of the people,
for Union men are abundantly salts
fed with it.

OUR STATE SENATOR,

The majority for Carlin in this
District is upwards of nine hundred.
This is a nice easy majority, and is
hard on Copperheads. They did
some heavy figuring, and by very
fine calculation concluded they could
carry the district. In this figuring
Hancock was to give five hundred
Copperhead majority. In other To-
calitics their figuring was equally
wild. We judge that c. W. will still
reside in Findlay, and will not have
an opportunity of voting for Val
landigham for L. S. Senator.

SOLDIERS PARTY.

1t must be highly entertaining as
well as instructive to the slippery
Coppcrhcads of Iowa, to contemplate
the result in that State. With char.
acteristic impudence, Immediately
upon the return Of the soldiers 10
their homes, they threw away the
time-honored and much loved name
of Democratic, and assumed that OF
Soldiers, party. The hook was not
we'll halted, and .he soldiers saw the
four years opposition to the war, the
abuse OF them, and their general
bearing tnward the late Confederaoy
and very naturally tho brave men
could not affiliate.
1t was but a sorry compliment to
the patriotism and good sense of
the soldiers, for Copperheads to think
to fool them into going with them.--
The soldiers hsvo been too long in
the army, Sighting rebels, to come
homo and act with their weaker
brethren, the Copperheads Of the
North. ...
Coppcrheads in Iowa as well as in
Ohio, will have to try some other
dodge that of drawing the wool over
the soldiers eyes.

Taking the professions of the lat.
ter day Democracy as a guide, one
would infer that of all their hates
none is so heartfelt az that towards
what Is known as the Higher Law
! This was so until it came to the ques-
tion of obedience to the law of the
land that demands of every able
bodied man his service In tbe militia
lry, to put down the rebellion. When
drafting was put in force Immediate
ly did the Copperhead Democracy
protest against such invasion of the
right of conscience.
The tune changed so soon as the
question of fighting Southern trait
ors became involved, and then it was
that Democracy maintained that hu.
man law should be powerless before
the demands of private Judgment or
inclination The debates in the Pro-
testant Episcopal General Conven-
tion, now in session at Philadelphia,
have afforded n notable instance of
Democratic advocacy of the "Higher
Law
The question before the Conven-
tion was on the passage of canon
that should forbid clergyman from
entering the military service, except
as Chaplain, or Professor in a milli-
tary school. Rev. DR.. Vinton, OF
New York, held that the enacting of
such canon would compel men to
|disobey the laws of their country:
that in case of emergency the clergy,
as well as laity, should on to help
sustain the country. Judge Spald-
ing, of this Hity, took similar high
and patriotic ground.
Mr.. s. G. Judd, of Illinois, the
leader Of the famous, infamous
Knights of the Golden Circle, who
is also a delegate to the Convention,
came out an earnest advocate of the
canon, and espoused the doctrine of
the Higher Law. He declared:
There was needed something OF
this kind to protect the clergymen
of the Church, and also for the pro.
lection of those who were preparing
to enter the ministry. They should
be protected against such laws as
compel them to enter the military
service; and this would make it a
matter of conscience, which they
could not disobey. For his own part,
he had conscientious scruples, and
would not obey the law, preferring
to take the consequences of such
action. 1t should not conflict with
what he believed to be right.
We have no doubt Judd would call
q mar a traitor and criminal, who
should refuse to obey the call of a
Marshal to help catch runaway
slave under the Fugitive Law, but
when it becomes question of put
ting down an armed slavery rebel
lion, "the boot is on the other leg"
and this leading Democratic X. G..
C. would not obey the law that Or
dered him to take up his musket, as
it would be u "matter of conscience"
that he "coulu not dsobey."

Then, Union men, let us go to
