To tie Republican voters Of Ohio:
At a meeting of our State Central
and Executive Committee in the Sem
ate Chamber, at the Capitol, at which
were present, by invitation, the officers
of the State Government, the Union
members of the Legislature, and prom
inent and influential Union citizens
from various parts of the State, it vas
resolved to hold the Annual State Con-
yention of the party at Columbus, on
Wednesday, the 4th day of March,
1865.
This Convention will make nomina-
tions of candidates on the State ticket
for the following officers, viz:
Secretary Of State.
Judge of the Supreme Court.
Commissioners of Common Schools.
Clerk Of the Supreme Court.
Member of the Board Of Public
Works.
The Convention will also make
choice of four delegates at large to the
National Republican Convention. to
assemble at Chicago May 10Th, 1868,
to nominate candidates for President

States, at the ensuing Presidential cleo
ton 5 szs--b el go.
The Convention will also nominate
two electors at large for President and

er business as may come before it.
The Committee would recommend
that the meetings in the several coun-
ties for the selection of delegates be
held on Saturday, February I'D; and
that, if the several county meetings so
desire, they select their delegates with
q view to the appointment of district
delegates to the National Convention,
from their several districts, when they
shall meet at the State Convention at
Columbus.
. The basis of representation, in this
Convention, has been determined to
be one delegate for every four hundred
votes cast for Governor Hayes in 1867,
and an additional delegate for every
fraction of two hundred votes and up
wards, in each county.
THE total vote was 243 sos and the
total number of delegates COG. The
following table shows the vote and
number of delegates for this and the
adjoining counties.

The attention of Union men is earn
estly directed to this call. 1t is the be-
ginning of the Presidential campaign
of 1868 in this county, and the impor-
lance of beginning any thing aright,
has passed into a proVerb swell begun
is half finished" Let Union men then
see that the campaign be well begun.
The eleven Delegates from this coun-
ty to the State Convention, not only
have to nominate, in conjunction. with
others, State Officers, but to select four
delegates to the National Union Con
vention, two electors for President and
Vice President, and also to meet with
the delegates from the other counties
in this Congressional District and select
too delegates to represent this District
in the National Union Convention.
The importance of having good men
to discharge these duties need not be
dWelt upon. 1t i~sappArent. The way
to c them is for Union men to at
tend the Primary Meetings, and secure
good, reliable men, as delegates to the
County Convention.

March 4th is to be an important one.
1t is desirable that it should be largely
attended, and therefore the people are
by a joint committee of Senate
and House Republicans, to ZONE en-
nasse. We hope our friends in Trum-

ion. The indications all point to q

are supposed to be about unani-

The attention OF the Republicans of
Ohio is most earnestly invited to the
call, in the hope that it viii receive
their prompt attention.
The campaign of 1868, in the issues
it involves, is one of the most, if not
the most important, we have ever been
called upon to engage in. Many of the
questions growing out of the war are
unsettled. Their proper settlement
depends entirely on the Republican
party, and our defeat in this campaign
will be the surrender of the Govern
ment into the hands of the party which
brought on the war. Shall the de-
structfve policy of that party again be-
come the policy of the nation?
We must judge our opponents not by
their present professions alone, but by
their past actions. The same influence
which in 1861 precipitated the rebel
lion, and for four years Haged a trea-
sonable Tsr, still rules its councils, and
will shape its policy should it return to
power, IN illustration OF this, we have
the action of the majority in the pres
ent General Assembly, in resembling
the ratification of the Constitutional
Amendment and the proposed instruc-
tons to members of Congress to
vote for the repeal of the Reconstruc-
ton acts.
We must have patience in the labor
Of Reconstruction. It is not the work
of a day. The Vaccinations of a per-
idious Executive, aided by a powerful
and determined party, largely COM
posed Of defeated rebels, have served
to delay the execution of the wishes of
the loyal majority of the country, but
cannot prevent it if We are as faithful
TO our trust in the future a we have
been in the past.
ReYerses may meet US in the execu-
ton of our policy now, as they did
during the war, but they must not
cause US to falter in the course marked
out. Rather should they nerve US to
renewed energy and more determined
effort.
The result of last falls election has
been most happily modified by the re-
cent glorious victory won by the gallant
Republicans Of the Eighth District
Let their spirits animate all the Dis
tricts, and the campaign of 1868 will be
as cheering In its results as those of
1863 and 1864.
Very truly, your friends in the cause,

DARING HIGHWAY RoBBERr.-We
learn from the New Lisbon Journal
that hr. John Robertson, Postmaster
at that place, vas attacked on his way
home on Sunday night, about nine
o'clock, knocked down and robbed Of
some two hundred and ninety dollars.
The particulars are: Mr.. R., after
church, repaired to the Post-ofice, as
is his custom, to make up the mails
leaving early next morning. After
concluding his labors, he started home
and reached the stone steps IN front of
the residence Of Mr.. G.. W. Nelson,
when two men who had concealed
themselves behind the pillars at the
side of the gate, rushed out, knocked
him s~enseless, and relieved him of the
sum above stated. Mr.. R. remained
PROSTATE upon the cold ground in an in
sensible condition for about an hour,
when reason returned, and he sought
his home. He is oonsiderbly injured
on the head, but his wounds are not
considered dangerous. No clue to the
perpetrators of this muFderous assault
has yet ben ELECTED.

Address to the Union Voters
of Ohio.

"I5 The Loyal Union Electors Of Ohio:
"The great and vital Importance OF
issues involved in the approaching
state and national elections induce the
| Republican members of the General
Assembly OF the State to addressyou on
the Importance and beneficial inlu-
ence Of a large attendance of the
friends of good government, at Column
bus. on the 18th day of March next,
to attend the State Convention on that
day. The approaching campaign, in
the issues involved, is more important
and vital to the peace and prosperity
of the country than any political con
test which has preceded it. The great
questions of wal are yet unsettled
The party which involved this country
in war, deluging it with the blood of
young men, and brought grief and
misery to households all over the land,
is now making desperate and unscru-
pulous efforts to regain control of the
state and national governments.
ave, therefore, earnestly implore
our loyal fellow-citizens to come up to
the capital of the state in large dele
cations, composed of the sages and
young men of the party who sustained
the country in the hour of trial, and
the veterans and soldiers who fought
and bled in its defense, to organize a
thorough and brilliant campaign.
1.-THE recent glorious struggle in the
Eighth Congressional District, which
resulted in the triumphant election of
General Beatty, assures US that the cur
rent of defeat has been happily and
successfully checked. Let the reac-
ton be further encouraged and pro-
NOTED by an assemblsge of large num-
bers Of the friends of the country,
from every county in the State, on the
day named, to secure a thorough and
efficient organization of our forces,
backed by a hearty determination that
victory no less glorious than that of
1868 shall again rejoice the loyalhearts
all over the land.
at is expected that all the railroads
of the State will issue half-fare tickets,
and our Union friends in Columbus
their loyal feIlow-citizens at
tending the Convention to the hospi-
tally of their homes on that day. All
delegations, however numerous, will
be entitled to seats in the Convention,
but the votes Of counties will be indi-
Gated in the call of the State Central
Ajoyous time may be ex-
peeted-one that viii rejoice the heart
of every patriot, and inaugurate q cam

lmph of liberal principles, and give
peace and prosperity to the whole land.
