ROSecrans DenOunces the Peace Demo
3 Gratis as Traitors.


In letter to the Ohio Legislature
in 1868 General Rosecrans, among
other things, said:
81 AM AMAZED THAT ANY ONE
COULD THINK OF PEACE ON ANY TERMS.
He WHO ENTEErAINs THE SENTIMENT
Is FIT ONLY To BE A SLATE; he WHO
UTTERS 1T AT THIS TINE is MOREOVER
A TRAITOR TO HIS COUNTRY,
WHO DESERVES THE SCORN
AND CONTEMPT OF ALL HON
ORABLE MEN.' saa
The above will be found standing
las we suppose) during the campaign,
at the head OF the columns of the
Bellefontaine Republican. We agree
to its authenticity, but pronounce it
now. as we did when il was uttered,
a lie--mOst probably a id lie, at
that. Rosecrans will have to admit
this when he accepts. the Columbus
nomination. 1t is just as well to be
plain and outspoken, and to call
things by their right names. The
"goak," we agree, is upon the De-
mocracy, till Rosecrans accepts, and
then it will be upon him.--Logan
Gazette (Democratic). &
The Gazette is frank, to say the
least. 1t accuses the Democratic
nominee with having deliberately
written and published "a ie-most
probably id ie.'' The chief
question now, according to the .Ga-
zete, is whether the Democracy have
made asses OF themselves in nominal
ing the only army officer known to
have publicly pronounced them all
'traitors to their country, who de-
serve only the scorn and contempt
of all honorable men," or he, in be-
coming the standard bearer of such
disloyal and shameless fellows. 1t
must be confessed that that is an
interesting point, the decision OF
which is awaited with no little curl
osity.-I0iedO Commercial.

ltains of this or any age. The peer
and sworn friend of Grant, they
seemed the opposites, or rather the
compliments, OF each other. If
Grant seemed partially bent, Sher-
man sat straight and erect. II Grant
appeared impassiye, reserved, and
meditative, Sherman seemed open,
receptive, and Impres ible. If the
former was a noble organ, perfect in
its capabilities and movement, but
closed up, and Withholding its glori
Gus music, the latter was well-tuned
and polished harp, whose strings
were exposed and ready to vibrate
to the touch of even the gentlest
breath. If Grant sat almost statu
esque as a mighty oak, unmoved
against whatever passing wind, Sher-
man yielded to this strain of elo-
quence, or that burst of martial mu-
sic, as the tall and graceful elm sways
to the whisperings OF the breeze
Their very hair seemed to bespeak
their widely different temperament.-
Grants head was trimmed and ar
ranged like youths; his parted hair
lay close, smooth and precise. Sher-
mans locks were careless and airy :;
pushed away from his ample and
beautiful forehead, and permitted to
arrange themselves at will.
Always, hitherto, since Sherman's
name came up, amid the wars great
movements, to universal notice, we
have, with the loyal people, greatly
venerated the man. But since seeing
and hearing him, we have most ar,
IDENTIFY loved him also; for he looks
as genial in private character, as he
is accomplished in arms.
GENERAL THOMAS
Takes the third rank among the
great generals; and nobly does he
deserve that elevation. If the third
rank marks his real place, his person
al appearance would indicate him as
the first Of the commanders. As,
some minutes after Grant and Sher-
man, he was withprodigious cheering,
introduced upon the rostrum, it i'm
nediately impressed us that no mortal
lad ever so perfectly filled our bedu
deal of great military captain
He stood more than six feet-large,
inely proportioned, portly, and OF
noble presence and bearing; yet
particle of ostentation,-l
With a simplicity and modesty so
characteristic of Grant, and sweet
,enignity of aspect that could not
,e excelled. He acted as president
# this great occasion; and with
irant on his right and Sherman on
lis left,-all the three in military un-
lress, and all with their stars of hon
II beds cking their shoulders,-there
7as presented scene which-wreath
d as 1t was, with its multitudinou4
ffecting associations-seemed one of
he sublimest it was ever our privi-
ege TO behold.
