Do Your DUTY.

Union men of Wyandot! we entreat
you to do your duty on next Tuesday.
Do your whole duty rain or shine. II
each one put his shoulder to the
wheel the wagon will surely move. We
will come off victorious.
The pending election is not merely
an ordinary one, but one upon the re
suit of which depends the veal or woe
of this Republic.
The whole question is reduced to
this:
Shall loyal and true men rule the
country, or shall rebels, -forsaken
traitors and their sympathizers rule and
control it? Shall the victorious nation
prescribe some conditions precedent to
the admission of unrepentant rebels
These question must be decided next
Tuesday.
We call upon you, Union men, to de-
eide these great and most momentous
questions at the ballot Box. We feel
confident that the result of your day S
work will be glorious triumph.

Be Home TO Vote!

We repeat what we have
said before:
Be sure to be at the polls
on election day. Ifyou love
your country, vote. If you
love and revere American
Liberty, vote. We would not
lose cur vote if we had to go
to Chicago to cast it.
Farmers, do not allow the
pressure of business to detain
you from the polls. Giveone
day to your country. Rise a
little earlier, and makeup the
time required to go to the
election.
If we are not to prize the
privilege of voting, we might
as well live in Austria.
Merchants and Mechanics
remember next Tuesday, and
arrange your business accord

BOnd-HOlders !

Bear in mind that if our enemies carry
the day, on next Tuesday, and get the
control Of the Government, your
Bonds will soon be worthless. The
high credit Of our currency has been
sustained by the Union party, and that,
too. when the Democratic party de-
nounced the Greenbacks as worthless,
and at the same time prayed that this
would be so.
It is Of the utmost Importance that
the party, who preserved the nationa,
credit and national integrity, be re
tanned in power, and then the sound
ness of our currency and of your bond:
will not be questioned.

Strange.

Gen. Butler preserved peace, in the
city of New Orleans, when the rebel
lion was rampant and rebel soldiers
swarmed the country. The city then

than now, and yet Union men have been
permitted to be murdered by scores,
after the rebellion has been crushed.
The copperheads will never pardon
Butler for his severe dealing with re
bells and protecting loyal men, but in
their opinion, President johnson and
his subordinates, committed laudible
act, when they allowed hellish rebels
and traitors to murder radicals in cold
blood, simply because they remained
loyal and true to the flag amidst the
greatest danger This was their only
crime!

Our Ticket.

1t is not necessary for us to speak of
our candidates separately or at any
length. They are all Gentleman well
worthy of the cordial support of the
Union voters Of Wyandot county, and
we trust they will receive hearty re-
sponse from the ballot box. They are
all competent to fill the offices for
which they have been nominated, and
if elected, will discharge the duties de-
volving upon them to the entire salts
faction of all.
They are loyal and true men. True
to Freedom, Liberty and Union. True
to their country, the old flag and the
party, whose unanimous support they
will receive on next Tuesday.
THEY NEVER SAW CANADA!
Union men. elect the entire ticket
You CAN, and MUST do it!

President johnson

caused the execution of wirz who was
the mere tool of jeff. Davis, and on the
other hand, he has pardoned hundreds
of native born rebels and traitors, who
were ten times more guilty than this
executed victim. We do not mean to
apologize for the crimes of wirz, for
God knows his crimes was black
enough, but why hang him, and pardon
those who were the master actors, in
the horrible crime Of treason and MUIR
der? Is it because Wirz was poor
German? .
We are forced to believe, that if jeff
Davis had been foreigner, President
johnson would have tried him by Court
martial, and hung him without mercy
long ago.

Brother Foreigners, Listen to Our
Voice!

Fellow foreigners do you remem-
ber how we have been denounced by
the Democrats of the South ? How
they called us all the hard names they
could imagine? We tell you that those
men despise German, Frenchman,
Irishman and Englishman.
Do you not know that the Demo
Gratis of the South, who carried on the
rebellion, and the Democrats of the
North, who aided them all they could,
are now united? They are your real
enemies. They only want you in their
ranks for your votes. Leave them,
and espouse the cause of the Republi-
cans. They are your true and unfail-
ing friends, and their principles are just
such as your hearts endorse if you
only understand them. This we say
to you in all sincerity. God knows we
do not want to deceive you nor our:
self.

We look upon the present position of such

So said Andy johnson less than one year
ago! He now assumes. that to himself be-
longs the restoration of traitors to civil
and political rights We think this is
done, not because he is honest in that as
sumption, but because he seeks an extern
sion of political power, and knows well
that with TRAITORS lie his hopes for the
future, as his recent acts clearly prove.
Whatever power of that kind he may
have had, could only have been exercised
by proclamation prior to his declaration
that the rebellion was as an end, as "Com-
mander-in-C -Chief,r etc.
The rebellion having been declared at
an end by him, he then, in relation to this
matter, became but the ezecator of the viii
of Congress, and has no right to claim the
authorship Of any police which must be
adopted in relation thereto.
Congress has submitted for adoption. by
the State legislatures, wise, Constitutional
WuiCH IIdNc UccH
adopted by Tennessee New Jersey &c.,
and which, we hope, will finally become
part Of our Constitution, giving the actors
in rebellion all they descroe! To those am
endmehts we invite the earnest attention
of every true lover of his country, and af-
ter having read them with care, we appeal
to you to sustain them by your votes. by
upholding the Congress of the United
States, which has been true to you and to
the country. in all her trials during the re-
bellion, and from whence those amend
ments emanated. Congress has with them,
on this issue, the true men Of the Nation,
both North and South!
The President, aside from those who
seek his patrimony. has, as the advocates of
| his policy, every defiant Southern traitor.
every man in the North who sympathiZed
with traitors during the war, every man
who fled to Canada from North or South ;
in short, jeff. Davis, Vallandigham, and all
their followers!

choice be made WISELY.

Negro BOunties.

1t is malicious copperhead false
hood that the bounty law makes discrim
ination in behalf Of negro soldiers
Indeed, the distinction is very great in
favor of white soldiers. But this cop
perhead howl about bounties, amounts
to this: They have steadily opposed
giving honntiec to any soldiers at all,
cn'l the leaders Of the Copperhead par
t. in the North, would rather give the
hard earnings, of both white and black
soldiers, to JEFF Davis, Lee and theil
associates.

Short of Resources I!

The Democratic-Joh ohnson papers are
laying befor their readers the speeches
of a few men who have left the Repub-
lican party, and gone over to the en-
braces, sweet embraces, of the Valland-
igham tribe. We notice that one, OF
these recent converts, has been arraign-
ed, in the Methodist Protestant Con
ference, at Lebanon, for hypocrisy,
treason and drunkenness.
We earnestly hope that all such will
stay over the lines.

INDIANAPOLIS, September 26.
Hon. M. G. Kerr, the Copperhead
candidate for Congress in the Second
District,in recent debate with his com
petitor, General Gresham, announced
that General Grant was firm support
er of President Johnson and his policy.
General Gresham demanded the proof;
whereupon Mr. Kerr prodnced a letter
from General Hillyer, of New York,
who was formerly a member of Ger.
Grants staff, to substantiate his state
ment. General Gresham was not salts
fed, and wrote General Grant for the
facts. Here is the answer. The cor
respondence referred to, we give be-
low:
