Thomas W. Upton 1--WE suppose he is the
same man) is not unknown to lame in this
section of Ohio. He formerly resided In
Guernsey, county, and represented that
county in the Ohio House of Representa-
tives In the winter Of 1S47, elected by ma
jority of one vote, and that, 1t was charged,
the vote OF colored man. His election
caused good deal of excitement at the
time. He subsequently became a temper
ance lecturer; then, for time, had clerk
ship in the Treasury Department at WASH
ington; then studied law and removed to
Nee cConnelsville, where he opened an Office.
Meeting with little success at the bar, he
abandoned the profession and entered the
ministry of the Methodist Church. He re-
sided at McConnelsvIllet three or four years;
then removed to the western part of the
State, where he remained some time, having
a charge, when he removed to Nebraska
City, Nebraska. He was, for time, chap
lain of one of the Nebraska regiments dur
ing the late war. Upton is clever fellow,
but will not make much of a figure in the
United States Senate. Nebraska has any
number of men Of much superior abilities,
and who would do her and the country
more service In theibody to which be Is elect
ed. He possesses, or did possess, extraor-
dinary fuency as speaker, but had little
force. Our relations TO him were Of such
an intimate and friendly nature, for several
years, that we are enabled to speak thus
freely and particularly -Zdnesuille Signal.

photographs Of Mexican volunteers,

Twenty-four members of Company B,
4th Regiment of Ohio Volunteers who
I served in the Mexican war, met the other
. morning at the Photographic Gallery Of
MN. Griswold, in this city, and had their
photographs taken in single group. The
group consists of the portraits of Capt.
Otto Zlrckel, Lieut.. Fl. Jaeger, Orderly Ser
geant Edward Lilly, sergt. John Ricken-
bacher, Corp. Andrew Reihhard, and nine
! teen priyates. 1t forms an elegant picture,
and will be pleasing and gratifying me-
mento for these brave old Mexican veter-
ans, their families and friends. "
, We learn with pleasure that these SOL
diers in the Mexican service design at an
early day to form an association Eor their
mutual protection and benefit. Wehope the
plan win be carried out, and that it may
prove prosperous and eminently successful.

Within the past Ave years there has been
much said and spoken, under feelings Of
excitement and to promote the ends of
} party, that should never have been spoken,
| by men who are awakening to the import
ance Of doing something to change the
character Of the delegation In Congress.
I The bitterness Of the past should be dis
, carded, as You would discard worn out and
/ unfashionable garments; and the rlyalship
should now be Us to who will do the most
: to put into Congress Representatives who
I will stand unAinchingly by the President
In perfectinR Union and maintaining the
, Constitution, and who will see to 1t that
economy shall be inaugurated in every de-
partment Of Government, and that only
such laws are enacted as will conduce
, TO the welfare of the whole people
Democrats and Republicans stand in
the presence of common peril. 1t Is
for them TO grapple with that peril and
put It out Of existence. This, however,
they can not do II they shall take to
wrangling about the past There is no
wisdom in saying that you will not lend
your help to remove this great peril, be-
cause SO and SO, whom in the past you de-
nOunced as -vile copperhead" is with all
his power working to remove that peril.
Were your house on fire, would you rather
that 1t should be burned to the ground
than saved through the instrumentality of
that ''copperheadp" Certainly you would
not. Constitutional liberty and our Re-
publican form of Government are in dan
ger Of total subversIOn. viii you with
hold your assistance to save them from
that subversion, because the men you have |
looked upon as Objectionable copper
heads' are rallying to their rescue? Do
you think it manly TO do so? .i.

cerning it. Sedalia, the County
seat Of Pettis County, is on the
Pacific Railroad, about 1s0 miles
from st. Louis. This is the best
business point between either end
Of the Road, situated on q high,

ty. Any one travelling through and
over this State south of tho Mis-.
souri, River, will find the best body
of land lying between that and the
Usage River, and extending ives,
into Kansas. Sedalia is not far
from the centre Of this rich body
OF land and must, of course, be a
good business point on the great
highway to the Pacific. The soil
