BE Active.

But short time now remains in which
to work for the success of our ticket. We
entreat our friends to be active and dill
gent.
We should have an increased major
ity in this county and nothing but a
criminal indifference on the part of our
selves eau possibly make it less than our
old fashioned majority. There is every
thing to encourage us and make us zeal
Gus in the good work. Let us do our
part to words swelling the Republican
majority in the State. 1t is entirely to
soon for the resurrection of the Demo-
cratic party. Let US postpone it indet'
nitely. They have rested under the con
demnation of the people for seven long
years. 1t is too soon by at least seven
years to relieve them.

s@ Considerable disaffection we up-
derstand exists among the Democracy of
this county on account of their ticket.
The idea of voting for soldier is ex-
ceedingly distastefal to many of them.
They still keep alive their animosity to
"Lincoln's hirelings,"
1t was only for the purpose of keeping
up appearances and if possible catching
some votes from the Soldiers friends, that
ed them to nominate one soldier.
Read their record and then say, who
's the soldiers friend.

The People Warned.

The following art ice clipped from the
Pittsburgh Commercial needs no COM
ment it speaks for itself. Republicans
should be prepared for every emergency.
We are obtaining additional proof cv-
cry day of the desperete purpose of An
drew Johnson--Bot rumor merely, but
proof to which no man should close his
ewes, and that should startle the country
as did the first gun aimed at Sumpter.
At late meeting in Cincinnati, Senator
Thayer, of Nebraska, made the following
statements on his own responsibility:
have recently been in Maryland aud
the District of Columbia, having left
Washington only night before last.
While there took special pains to in
form myself in regard to the present pur-
pose Of Mr.. johnson. and obtained what
/ am about to state from reliable author
ity. 1 declare upon my responsibility
as a Senator of the United States that
today Andrew johnson meditates and
designs forciJle resistance TO the authori-
~ of Congress. | mako this statement
deliberately, having received it from un-
questioned and unqsestiouablc authority.
l cannot point out the occasion on which
he may attempt to use military force.
1t may be to prevent the assembling of
Congress or when assembled, ifthe House
of Representative pass articles of im>
parchment, or it may be for the purpose
of forcing the Southern Senators and
Representatives to seats in Congress.
The question may be asked, "How can
he do such thing p You recollect that
six months ago Governor Swami Of MAJ
ryland was elected United States Sens
ator, and that few weeks afterward he
declined, giving grave reasons of State
as the cause. 1t was that Lieut. Gov.
Cox Of that State could not be trusted
for Johnson's purposes. There is today
a standing army IN Maryland, sn organ
lied Militia force, su,h as no other State
in the Union has. officered mainly by re.
turned Rebels. When the time comes
which he looks for, upder some pretense
johnson may declare Maryland and the
District of Columbia under martial Law,
is aud call upon Governor Swami
to bring forth his militia. There is
nothing that will deter johnson from his
purpose, except when the issue comes
that his his courage may fail | make
this statement that the American peo>
pie may know the danger that threatens
their peace and safety. IfPennsyvania
and New Yoek give Democratic major.
tiles in The coming elections it will EN-.
bolden him to carry out his purpose and
l hope that you, the people of Ohio, will
be warned in time, and so cast your
votes as to rebeke and prevent the mad
designs of this bad man who is now
acting President Of the United States
This aeeoris pspfscily with our infor,
nation through reliable private sources
from Washington. Every outward in
dcation US well as the recent course OF
Mr.. johnson tends to confirm its truth.
And to such testimony nothing should
be required to rouse the people to act as
one man to insure that which will arrest
the danger-th< defeat Of the Democrat
&c Party.
