.valIandigham Will Positively
be I'm Ashland ON Saturday!

We have the satisfaction Of announcing
to the people of Ashland and adjoining
Counties, that the Hon. @. L. VALIAN.
DIaHAM will positiUely be in Ashland on
Saturday next, and address the people on
the great question Of the day, "the res.
t~oration of the Union of the States under
tho Constitution"
We received the following telegram on
Saturday last
vi DAYTON, ONO, Septembe or 8, 1866.
To j. M. lands, Ashland-I will POSITIVELY
be with you on Saturday, the 10Th. 1
syr. "a. CT. VALLANDIGHAM.
We need not urge the Democracy to
turn out and hear him-they will come in
their might; but we would be glad il
persons would come and hear, who have
u%niounded prejudices againsthim. They
will find in him, not the "rebel'' they
have been taught by their disuuion lead
ers to believe he is, but a firm supporter
Of the Constitution and the Union. Lei
the men who, in the heat Of the war i'm
bibcd p~rejudicos against those who
thought differently from themselves, turn
out and hear him, and our word for it
they will go away better and wiser men.
The other speakers announced will also
DO present.

WILL HE ANSWER ?

The four thousand dollar candidate for Con.
gress in this District, is announced to speak
OF several points in this County, commencing
at Savannah on Saturday evening next, to Try
to induce The people to re-electhim but be.
fore they will do it, they would like to know
Why he voted for Negro Suffrage in The
District of Columbia?
Why he voted for the Tariff bill, which taxes
enormously the Farmers and People of the
Vest for the benefit Of New England shoddy.
itesf
Why he voted against the white soldiers
Bounty Bill, and why he ~pocketed tho $4,000
extra pay?
Why he voted for the bill giving Negro
soldiers $500 bounty ?
Why he voted for The bill appropriating
money for the Freedmen's Bureau {?
Why he voted against every measure tend.
ing to restore peace and harmony to our dis.
lracted country
And why, with such o record staring him
in the face, the people should vote for his
re. ELECTION?
These may be Copperhead questions, but
the people have a right to know how their
representative voted while occupying q eat
in the National Legislature.

POLITICAL HYPOCRISY.

Tho people Of Ashland county had been
notified through our paper and otherwise,
that a Soldiers meeting would be held at
the Town Hall en- the 9Th inst, for the
purpose of forming a Soldiers League, If.
respective Of part y. The day came, and
with it a large representative Of soldiers
from all parts Of the County. They came
in good faith to renew old associations and
mingle together as comrades and friends.
Having shared the privations of q militia.
ny life, and the dangers of the battle field,
they could highly appreciate the gratifca.
ton nnd pleasure afforded by a reunion,
under moro favorable circumstances. But
this was not to be permitted by the political
tricksters of Ashland. A grand partizan
scheme was 10 bo advanced by the move
mant. The first intimation foreshadowing
the real purpose ofthe movement was given
by Mr.. SLooUM, urging the soldiers to 60
to Seville on the 18th, as HAMILTON, Of
Texas, q noted radical, and several other
men Of tho sam kind would be there and
speak. This looked a little suually to
some as they knew the partisan stamp of
all announced to speak on the occasion.
Mr.. W. II. WHITE, of Jeromeville, a dis.
charged soldier, who had been in the ser.
vice three years, and always a Republi'
an, saw the object in view and protested
against the fraud being perpetrated.-
I here seemed to be a difference Of opin.
ion among the leading spirits, Captain
BARBER pretending that the object was
not partisan, while the hero of Mcdowell
said that there was no use to conceal the
real d~eslgnAthat the meeting was called for
political purposes and to advance tho cause
of the Radical Party. The contest be,
tween the Soldier on the one hand, and
the bevy Of political cormorants on the
other, resulted iavorably to the
Soldier, although the white washed pat.
riots delayed their action until nearly all
the real Soldiers had left. The actions
Of these men show but too plainly how
they love the soldier, and for what pur.
pose they intend to use them. Acting on
the presumption TIN. the Soldiers arc
mere plant tools in their hands, by whom
they may subservc their dirty purposes
and further their disunion scheme, they
leave no opportunity unimprOved to i'm
pose upon their i~ncrcdulity, and betray
them into a false position. But they arc
not to be humbugged by SPRENaLE & Co.,
and ifthey expect to further their Radio
al schemes by such base trickery and low
cunning, every candid soldier will frOwn
with indignation upon their cause.

HON HENRY

A large number Of people assembled
at the Town Hall, on Wednesday evening
last, to listen to an address from Hon. Hen,
ry Clay Dean, of Iowa. The meeting was
organized by calling David Bryte, Esqr,,
to tho Chair, and appointing j. NJ. Ian.
dis, Secretary.
When Mr.. Dean made his appearance,
he was greeted with loud applause. At
ter a few Introductory remarks, he re.
viewed the acts Of the radical party, since
their accession to power, by which he
showed conclusively that they are the
diSunion party, opposed to restoration, be.
cause there had been no armed opposition
to the Government for over o year, vet
the Union is not restored. He demon.
strated the injustice of allowing tho bonds
of the Government to be exempt from
taxation, when everything else was doub.
lY taxed for the purpose Of paying the in.
terest on the public debt. The widow
was taxed for her little home, but the
millions of tho ill.gotten wealth Of the
aristocratic bond.holders were exempt
from taxation-every pound of coffee, su.
gar, sea, in fact, everything that enters
into the consumption Of q poor man, is
taxed to support a lazy, vagabond popu.
lation OF negroes in the South, while tens
Of thousands Of our own race are compel.
ed to toll and sweat to earn q scanty sub.
sistence. He said that the conditions IN.
on'which the Southern States were to be-
admitted to their relations in the Union.
were we'll understood at the time the Con.
fcderate army surrendered, and has been
fully complied with upon their part, but
still they are kept out by the action of
tho traitors Of the Bump Congress. Tho
signs of the times, however, aro Of the
most cheering character, and the prospect
is, that the Radicals who, by their acts,
have brought desolation and ruin upon
the country, will DO consigned to. Tho
shades of oblivion at Che coming elections,
The address was listened to with great at.
%tonticn, and at its close the speaker was
loudly checred.

the Philadelphia Convention, relating
many incidents connected Herewith, to
show the deep feeling that was manifest
cd by every delegate present, from both
sections Of the Union, for the speedy res,
toration Of that amity and good feeling
so necessary for q people who have been
for years estranged on account of the
late unhappy and cruel war. The speech
throughout was repleto with argument
and patriotism, and was at~tentively listen.

anxious to hear the important issues, di.
yiding the friends ofthe Constitution and
she Union, and the Radical. traitors of the
Rump Congress, discussed. We regret
that wc have not space to give the speech
