We see the Gazette copies the infamous
lie published in Jeffersonisn, about;eur hav-
ing declared in favor of negro suffrage, and
We presume ; essrs Clark, Chambers, Glov-
or, &c., will peddle this slander all over the
County to prove by it that the Union party
is in favor of negro equality" In another
column we deneunce this SANDER of the
Jsfersonian, and give just exactly what We
did say on the occasion referred to, and
what we have said on more than one occa-
sien in our speeches in this County. and we
ask the Gazette to publish 1t, and the So
called democratic" speakers to quote it
correctly, if they attempt to use it all, or
We shall brand them as cowardly sanderers.

The valIandIgbam Meeting.

For two or three weeks the Confederate
Democracy of Belmont County have been
hard at work preparing for the meeting
which came off yesterday TUESDAY, and we
were told very confidently that there would
be an immense crowd of people. Consider.
ing the effort made and the frantic appeal;
put forth by the leaders in this town, the
effort was complete failure. No process.
sions, no delegations, but at late hour the
struggling horsemen and solitary wagons en-.
tered the town in solemn silence, and slowly
wended their way to the Fair Ground
Fully one-fourth of the meeting was com.
posed of Union men, another fourth of
Wheeling Secessionsts, the balance about
one half women aud children.
We went down at the time the Chtet
Narstal who was to ride in open carnage,
walked down, along side of the band, in the
rear of the carriage in which the exile was
hauled down surrounded by his body guard
We were there early, anxious to hear this
demigod of Gn)fame(y), and we quietly and
attentvely listened to him for t,co hours and
tortyfre minutes, and were forced at the
end of that time to conclude that in decid-
ing he was great man. as we had done be.
fore we heard him, we were mistaken.
He talked one hour about Mr.. FaHdn-
dighdn,, fifteen minutes about the four dol
lar tax, twenty minutes about taxing U. s.
Bonds, fifteen minutes about leaving the
rebels come back with all their rights and
fifty five minutes about negro suffrage"
and negro equality" During his speech
he used the pronoun II" one hundred and
fifty seven times, ''me" sixty-three times,
my forty times. myself" thirty
four times and "VaUandigham" twenty
eight times.
We have no time to follow him through
his Misrepresentation about one fourth of
the personal property having been taken off
the tao duplicate Of the country by the ex-
emption of Bonds; that these bonds do
not pay cent of tax to the General Gov
ernment and that the lands Of the country
are taxed to pay the interest ou these bonds
IF Mr.. Pal,dndigham does not know that
he misrepresented the truth upon these
points many of his hearers do, and with
them we leave him for want of time.

The present political campaign is near to
a close. Only few more days are left for
organization and preparation On Tuesday,
the 10th day of October, the great civil bat.
tie is to be fought. Soldiers, are you ready?
Nothing is needed but your arms in perfect
order, forty rounds of ammunition, and one
days cooked rations Your gallant Gen
eral is to lead the Union column We
know he will neither tremble nor fater. He
never retreated or left his soldiers to encoun-
ter dangers or endure hardships he was not
ready and willing to share with them. Will
you stand by him now? Remember, this
is pre-eminently the Union SOLDIERS CAM
PAIGN. More than two-thirds of all the
candidates on the Union tickets for election
on the 10th, are men who have done gallant
service in the field in maintaining the Gov
ernment and the Union.
They have been your companions in arms.
Will you forsake them now? Will you, by
indifference or slothfulness, permit the enc
my-the party and men who have abused
and vilified you from the beginning of the
war to this day-to steal your wel-earned
laurels-to cheat you of q final and glorious
victory? Let not the miserable and sense
less cry of abolition and. negro equality mis-
lead you, nor the specious homage to your
bravery by those who have, during four
years of cruel war, villifed you, deceive
and allure you from duty. Forget not the
duty you owe to those brave companions
whose benes bleach or mOuder on Southern
soil Forget not your duty to those families
at home who mourn their absence.
The eyes of civilized world are watch
ins this last great battle, On its issue hangs
the last hope of secession-the credit of our
country at home and abroad-the future
reward and honor for your brave deeds.
If you yield in this struggle, you concede
that much for which you have brayely fought
was unworthy of such valsr.
The ticket presented by the UIion party
bears the stamp and approval of full con
vention of which you constituted an impor
tant part. A careful scrutiny since, induced
by the "logic of events" proves the wis
dom and prudence of the convention. Lei
no ISLANDERS or misrepresentation deceive
you in regard to our State ticket. 1t is al
that good and true men need desire. Edcl

A SUCCESS The only success visible on
the day of the Vallandigham meeting was
the success of the whisky saloons. There
has never been as many drunk men in st.
Clairsville, at one time, for ten years, and
the Democratic ''woters" lay scattered
around town loose. We make some allow
ance for them, however, for they had just
been permitted to leok on their patron saint.
and the sight was too much fer their weak
nerves.

A SOLDIER came to town on Monday
evening to transact some business with
Charlesworth, and on inquiry found he had
gone out as body guard to escort Vallan-
digham to town. The soldier said he had
intended to vote him, and had been work
ing for his election, but he would now see
him in hi before he would either vote or
work for him, but that he would both vote
and work against him. That's the way the
soldiers "see it."
