Lexington Aug. s.) Dispatch to Cincinnati Ca
zette.
Ever since election day the western
portion of Madison county has been in a
state of civil war. On election day man
named Ham, (Union,) knocked down a
man named Kelly, (rebel,) for shooting
Hams little brother some days before.
Kelly went to the place where the voting
was going on, and had a hurried consul
tatlon with his rebel friends. Kelly, in
about twenty minutes, walked up to the
voting place and coolly put pistol to
Hams head and fred. Ham was shot the
second time in the side by another man.
At the same time the rebels began to shoot
down Union men.
Willis, while voting, was shot and
killed. Major Roberts was shot in the
hip.
Almost simultaneously with KelIy's
shooting Ham, a party of fifteen rebels,
from another precinct, dashed up on
horseback, and began to fire at Union
men. The Union men were driven off,
went home, got their guns and re-enforce-
ments, and returned to the scene of action,
and drove the rebels, and have been hunt
ing them down ever since. Efforts to pro-
duce peace are in progress, but the Union
men feel themselves outraged, and are
very indignant. Some twenty rebels have
fed the county, or are hidden. Willis and
Roberts were shot down in cold blood,
they not knowing that Kelly and Ham
had had a difficulty. A rebel named Moore
was killed. No voting was done at the
precinct after eleven o'clock.

To the Editor Of the CLeUeLand Leader:
By the late papers we notice a want of
laborers on the farms in the North and
West, and take the liberty to inform the
public, that in cooperation with the
Freedmens Bureau, the National Freed
mems Relief Association for the District
of Columbia are assisting large numbers
of unemployed freed people to find good
homes and ccmpensating labor on farms
in the Northern and Eastern States, and
if offices in the principal cities of the
North and West can be opened to receive
and distribute them, with an Office fee for
that purpose, we can forward an almost
indefinite number of faithful laborers,
now dependent for want of employment.
Fair compensation and kind treatment
are required of employers. Thus far, en-
tire satisfaction to both parties, results
from the enterprise.

DEAR SIR-Herewith enclosed l send
you the proceedings of the meeting of the
members of the Bar of this sub judicial
district, composed of the counties of Ash
tabula, Lake and Geauga, held at the vii
lage of Ashtabula on the 18th inst.
As you were not at home, nor within
the State, at the time, and therefore had
no opportunity of participating in the
action of that meeting, nor of expressing
your views of the propriety of its course
or the wisdom of its choice, and as many
of your associates of the Bar have ex-
pressed to me desire to know your opin-
Ion touching this subject take this
method of respectfully asking you to give
rs the benefit of your views in respect
thereto in answer to this letter, or in such
other form as you may deem best.
Very respectfully yours,
A. L. TINKER.

The Democracy of the Seventh Congress
sional District have made 8 very "sense-
less and fit" choice of Congressional
candidate. His name is Louis Shaefer,
and he is lawyer in Canton. His loyalty
may be Judged from the fact that within
three months he made the following
declaration:
81 have never Voluntarily contributed a
farthing, nor ever spoke one encouraging
word, nor ever entertained one favorable
thought in favor of either of our two late
Abolition rebellions, one headed by John
Blown and the other by Abraham Lincoln u
There can be no doubt that Shaefer is a
fair representative of the Democracy Of
his district. Governor Cox carried the
district by nearly four thousand majority.
If Shsefer isn't beaten by six thousand
majority we shall blush for the district.

be considered as belonging to the church

spatched, on Mount Holyoke, a rattle
snake over four feet in length and eight
inches in circumference, the snake being
coiled under the feet of his horse ready to
spring, when discovered. A portion of
the rattles were lostin the conflict, making
it itimpsssible to state the age. The Bishop

in warfare with 'the old serpent" all
his life, and thinks he has fairly got him

been denomination. 1t is understood
that the Hon. Henry S. Bundy, of the
Eleventh District, will not be candidate
for denomination. Mr.. Hubbell, of the
Eighth District, is a candidate, but has
disguised his constituents by trying Ray
mond's system of pairing-of with him
self, and has made worse failure of it
than even Raymond. Judge Jacob Brin-

General Eckley's district, the nth, there
are a dozen candidates, but Eckley's

The "savage fury of an African mob"
is good. The mob of New York in 1863,

JUDGE wILDER's ANSWER.


RED WING, MINI, July 80, 1866.
DEAR SIR: Your letter ofthe 10th inst,
has been received, enclosing copy CT
the proceedings of meeting of the Bar
| of the Sd Subdivision of the 9Th Judicial
District of Ohio, and requesting, as was
not in the State at the time of such Bar
meeting, the expression of my views of
the wisdom of its action. With that re-
quest, most cheerfully comply Had l
been at home and consulted upon the sub
iect, 1 should have Joined with my breth-
rem of the bar in recommending the
meeting, attended and taken part in its
proceedings. In the result 1 should have
IN st cordially concurred, and united in
the invitation of Mr.. Sherman to consent
to become candidate for Judge of our
Subdivision, and gwen him a pledge TO
use whatever influence l had to secure his
nomination and election. Among the
most valuable and important qualities of
the judge, is that of securing the conf
dence of those through whom the judicial
action is invoked, and therefore the most
competent judges of his merits
1t is well known among ourselves that
Judge Chatfee does not now, and has not
for some time past, possessed this conf
dence. A change is therefore desired with
great unanimity on the part of the Bar.
Mr.. Sherman has for some years stood
at the head of the Bar of Ashtabula
county; is a gentleman of unquestioned
ability; has, as know, the confidence of
the Bar, and, as believe of the people.
The action of the Bar has been in no
wise dictatorial They have made no
nomination, but simply recommended a
candidate for nomination. They give to
the people in advance the benefit of their
judgment in respect 70 a candidate. 1
certainly would not claim for that judg-
ment controlling influence; yet in my
opinion it is justly entitled to vsTy great
a0eight with the people and with the judi
cial convention.
You are at liberty to make such use of
this letter as you may deem advisable.
Very truly yours,
HORACE Wilder
