The election occurs on IuesdayI Octooer |
10th. 1t is 70 day Tuesday, October Sd. |
There remains TO US but one more week Of
labor before she election transpires. In
that time thoFeis much 70 be done. The
campaign has thus far been devoid Of any
great interest and excitement, and unless
the organization of the party be complete
and perfect in every township snd ward
thousands of Union voters will neglect to
come to the polls. There seems to be
great danger that this work of orgaDiza-
tion will be neglected, especially on the
Reserve. Lulled by fancied security, our
friends are letting precious days pass with
out doing the most essential work. They
are so sure Of victory that they are IN
danger of throwing it awsy!
We warn all true Union men against
over.confdence. It lost US the election in
1862 and if it is permitted 10 sap our en-.
ergies now it will lose us the election in
1865. There are from eight TO ten thou
sand Union yctes on the Reserve whom
idIeness or business will keep away from
the polls unless pressure be brought TO bear
upon them to- attend and vote. On the
other hand, the Democracy are active and
yigilant, and every man who can be bought
and bullied into voting the Vallandighan-
Morgan ticket will be brought to the polls.
It needs only very simple calculation to
show that if q like proportion OF the
Union voters throughout the State are
permitted to neglect voting the success
of the Union ticket will be seriously jeop-
| aIuIHVd. -
Against the bare possibility Of such a
calamity we call on every Union man TO
labor with all his might. Our only danger
is in supineness Ifs full vote is polled.
our msjoriEy will not be less than forty
thousand. See 10 it, Union men, that q
full vote Is polled. Perfect at once, your
party organization in every township on
the Reserve. CompsratiEely little depends
oa big mass meetings and great enthusiasm; /;
real popular victories are achieved rather
by individual labor than by stump speak,
ing. Sec every Union voter before the
electionl Impress on him the necessity OF
voting Organize at the polls Have
your vigilance committees and ballot
distributors numerous and sctivel Make
arrangements for bringing out every Unicn
vote! 0rganiza Organise, oRaANIzEl J
Only six days remain, but much can be
done in six days.
Let US add word to every Union voter.
It is your first and paramount duty to UOte
at the next election. See that you do it
Allow no other engagement to interfere
with this most sacred duty. Allow no
personal inconvenience to prevent its per-
formance. Let no fsncied security tempt
you to neglect it. Ohio must not 60
backward now. She must still stand by
the CAUSE of Union and Freedom, and y0lsT
vote is needed to maintain her in her posi-.

POLsTIoAL.


General Slocum, the Democratic candi.
date for Secretary of State, approved the
famous peace arrangement Of Generals
Sherman and Johnston, which the whole
country repudiated.
Hon. @. Dewitt Smith, Acting Governor
Of Idaho, died suddenly of heart disease
on Saturday, the l9Eh Of August. This
leaves Idaho without either Governor or
Secretary for the time being.
There is good authority for stating that
no cabinet changes will take place until
the temper of the next Congress has been
ascertained; and that, if member should
goI out, it will be because he may desire to
retire, rather than from any pressure by
the President TO compel him to retire.
The Boston Post says Gen. Butler, who
arrived in Boston only few days ago
from New Orleans, is a candidate for Con-
gress, to I'LL the vacancy made by the res.

'He will be on the stump in few days,
and as he has many friends It's not i'm.
probable that he viii be returned to Con-
gress." General Buffers house is in the

Colorado, at the election for or against a

An Incident at the White HOuse.--Un:
expected Meeting Of a Brother and
Sister.
The Washington correspondent of the
Philsdelphis Press tells this story:
HOn Thursday an unusual and quite rO-
mantle incident occurred at the White
House among the squad of pardon-seekers
there. The suppliants were waiting, and
among others were two persons, closely
yelled young lady and 3 gentleman some
what broDzed, Is rebel soldier once, quite
likely) with . heavy beard and careful
dress. They had not paid any sitentiOn
to each other during the hour or two thsT
had been so near, and would not have done
so for all coming time had it not been for
the usher. He came with document and
in q sharp tone called on name super
scribed on its envelope. 1t was promln-
ent one once in Georgia, and was familiar
to most Of the ears upon which its tones
fell. The gentleman, with an air OF pleas
ure, stepped forward to take it, when the
lady, with little scream, pressed forward
and clasped him tightly in her arms. He
at first seemed surprised by such an uH-
wonted proceeding; but when she several
times excitedly asked, Don't you know
Jessie?' Don't you know Jessie ou
can't have forgotten me in such short
timeP and removed her veil to show q
fresh, piqHant pretty face, recognition was
instant, and with the one word sister, he
was quite as demonstrative as she had been
before. why, Jessie, what are you dong
here {? he asked. i am here for father; ne
is very, very SICK she said, with little
elision of the r. and a sob. But he wants
to die, if he has to die, citizen of the un-
ion again
"The young man seemed affected, but IN
the new 'rouuu Joy Of meeting q siatar long
lost, the cloud that time did not dsrken his
heart. A few moments after she also re-
celVed the grant of her application.
ut seems that the young msn went out
early in the war as major of q confederate
regiment. He WAS taken prisoner in q
skirmish lust after Bull Run, and spent two
years in a northern prison. Returning to
service, the cause of the Oonfederacy needed
all the men for support it could obtain, and
he was forced to stsy in the ranks. Let
ters he had sent home failed TO reach, and
he, despairing of finding his family after
the march of Sherman over the Stte, came
North to see after e friend. This good
work done he returned to Washington 10
look after his pardon. All this time his
family gave him up as dead, and, saving
his sister, who met him SO strangely, think
so yet"

1921, at the age of twenty. five, he became
pastor of the First Baptist church of Bos-

professor of mathematics in Union College,
but, receiving soon after call to the Presi.

continued to hold the position until 1856,
when he resigned, after having brought
the college up from low ebb, fnan-
cially and Intellectually, TO a stable pecun-
iary foundation, and made it also one of the
best educational institutions in the country.
Since his resignation he has lived in quiet
