ceased, are rc-appointcd to tho positions,
which they are TO bold during the continue
ancc Of the provisional government; but
they are allrequircd TO take the oath of al

dissatisfied and wished to contrive some wsy
to avoid giving aid to the soldiers families
and John A. Bayer, republican supervisor
from Black Hawk, introduced the following
resolution which was adopted:
Resolved, That we request the several super
vsors of the county to hold An election on the
nth oil June in each TO wnship to ascertain from
the leg al voters If they wiling pay an an
nuaI tar OF five SIX thousand dollars, and u so
TO hold said erection gratuitous, the question to
be Tor or against tax TO support the destitute
families of the volunteers from this county, the
SAID election returns be made to the county
clerk, and TO be by him laid before the board OF
supervisors at the next term.
1t was hoped. by Boyer and his republican
friends, that the people would vote down this
tax, and his resolution was purposely worded
with view to brighten the tax payers in re-
gard to the amount to be raised.
We appealed. for the needy soldiers fam.
lilies, to the people, and the result of the cleo
ton was as follows:

ers of war in suffering condition, deserves the
verest eprobation the score alike OF public pol
icy and common humanity. H
The democratic state convention, on the
10th of September following, unanimously re
adopted the same resolutions
The general assembly Of this state, last
February. also adopted the following resolu-
tions in regard to soldiers, for which resolu-
tons every democrat voted, viz:
Resolved by the senate and house of representa-
tives, represrnfing the people an the general assem-
oily. That the deepest sympathy of The whole peo-
pie of Illinois with the families and friends of
the brave and gallant field and staff officers,
with those OF the numerous line officers and the
host of non commissions ed officers and privates who
have glorlously fallen on the batte field, during
the progress OF the present in defense OF their
lmpenled country and its free Institutions; and
we hereby tender to them, one and all, the assur-
ance that their noble dead are not, and shall not
be forgotten; that We shall ever tendery cherish
their memories and be proud OF their noble deeds
whilst We deeply and sincerely eondoe with those
who mourn for the loved and lost.
Resolved, That our soldiers In the field who so
nobly responded their country's cali, IN the hour
of her peril, entitled the undivided grstItud
| OF the state. Living, they shall know nation's
| gratitude; wounded, 4 nations care and dying,
they shall forever live in the memory OF every true
patriot their widows and children become the
1
watchtul care; while Posterity shall delight IN
| erecting monuments to pepetuste the remem-
brance OF their names and virtues.
! Resolved, That the secretary of state transmit
/ TO the officers commanding regiments or other or
carnations from thIs state, now IN the service oil
their country, copies of the foregoing resolutions
with request that they be read TO their respective
| commands and all newspapers in this state are
| requested 10 insert The same in two numbers OF
| their papers.
| Approved February 9th, 1865.
Thus it will be seen that We present au un'
broken chain of evidence showing that the
soldiers and their families have had no firm
er, truer, better friends, from first to last,
than democrats,-and that all attempts to
show to the contrary are futile, while those
who assert that such has not been the case
are false caluminators. Their efforts to pref
udice our soldiers against the democrats will
react upon themselves.
