DEy~ In compliance with the Proclama-
ton Of the Governor of Ohio, the people
of Ashland and vicinity devoted last Fri
day to 4 general thanksgiving and rejoic-
ing over the prospect of Peace and n re.
stored Union. The business houses were
all closed and the people left their daily
avocatious. No one seemed to care for
business, and the only idea was to do
something-no matter what-that would
express a portion of the joy felt by all.-
Many of the National emblems were
flung to the breeze from The windows of
houses, stores and Offices. The rejoic.
ings Of the day eliminated at night in q
grand, indiscriminate jubilee. The Fire.
works, under the management Of W. A
ROLLER, was a complete success. The
sky sparkled with @ myriad of rockets,
&c. The feslings which prevailed among
the people exhibited thcmse Ives in. the
widest enthusiasm which was displayed
way by everybody. The Hayes
vile Brass Band, which, by the way, is
one of the best bands in the country, and
a band of Martial music, enlivencd the
occasion with patriotic pieces. It was
au occasion of which we cannot speak
aud do Justice to the subject, aud shall
therefore not. attempt it.

1t seems that we have in Ashland O
very small clique Of very small politicians
of the Abolition school, who have taken
upon themselves the task of giving tone
and character to the style and degree OF
grief that shall be expressed by this com.
munity over the lamentablc DEAN Of the
President of the United States. It is
feared By such men as HARTLEY, CLARK
and q few others of that ilk, that were a
Democra: or a decent member of the Re-
publican party allowed to express his re.
greet 10 public over this our National
wrong, that it might possibly not DO for
the best interest of the Post Office wing
of this Negro neutrality-suspicious. party.
Therefore the low political trickery played
off by that NegrO-worshiper at the Meth.
odist Church on Sabbath afternoon. II
would not do to allow Judge JONES to
address the meeting, for the reason he is
a Democrat, and it would not do to let
the Abolition portion of his Church hear
Mr.. JONES express his regret at the as.
sassination of Mr.. LINCOLN, for all such
political sncaks as HARTLEY tell their ia.
natical dupes that all Democrats rejoice
at Mr.. L~INCoLN's death. Neither would
it do to permit D. S. SAMpsEL to.spcak
upon such an occasion, while it is ad.
mitted that Mr.. SAMPsEL Is, in fact, the
leader of the Republican party in this
county, and possesses more intellect than
this little Court House-Post Office clique
put together. Yet 10 does not come up
to HARTLEY's standard of a true Repub.
lican. SAMpsEL does not believe in the
doctrine of Negro Equality hence he
must not be suffered to speak in this,
Rev. HARTLEY's Church. We say out
upon such low political knavery as this

the manuscript read at HARTLEY's meet.

at the Presbyterian Church of this place
to give paise and thanks, &c, &c, for
our late victories and the present pros.
pect Of peace. This as it should be,
but when advantage is taken Of the occa-

Abolition agitator, to insult the audience
by parading his personal difficulties be-

ton of the Church dedicated to God, and
a gross insult to those assembled together.
We now refer to the efforts of the Rev.
Mr.. HARTLEY. This Pharisee HART
LEY stood and prayed thus with himself:
"God, I thank Thee that l am mot as

let so favorable an opportunity pass with
out assuring his audience that he, Eat the
present time, was not suffering with that
loathsome disease, the itch, for he told
us in the most positive terms that his gar
