and increase the elasticity of their
consciences and shorten their memor-
les till they can look the old war
prices square in the face, and even
forget what potatoes, steak, hams,
sheeting, and everything else cost at
the present day. Now don't treat us
in this way, Brother Drummer, but call
around and invite us to accompany
you to service some Sabbath morning
and we will try to convince you that
our words are not so demoralized as
yo;.r language would imply. This
Column of"Local Gossip" is pretty
good thing after all. 1t is a queer
medley. We find little of everything
hushed up here in wonderful tact,
even "cranberries" and "whisky."
Here we have that "Gen. Noyes is a
s!asher," and that "Many young ladies
live to be pretty old ours" (singly) {;
that "Every body was pleased with
the address of Mr.. EWING" finally we
learn with pleasure, that, "Thc young
lady who complained of pain under
her apron has recovered" What a
joyful event. What "waiting" and
watching till lie "heard'' the glad
news and then how he rushes to
chronicle the same! What Phil
antropist of his aye. But the cheeks
ofthis fortunate young lady, would
crimson to see her "recovery" thus
"gossipped' and for her sake will
drop this umatter, trusting after this
she will "do we'll"
But he does not tell us in this col

or whether Mr. jackson is a man
after his own heart or not. These

place, just before the election. Bu

BRUNNER's CONTRIBUTIONS
WHAT is a COpPERHEADq'

w Hal ID u tlLlSslEAD "
L. A. Drummer, now Editor of the
Union, thus answers the above oues-
ton, at the head of the Editorial COL
umn, in the Pioneer of Sept. Both,
1864:
1. A Copperhead, as we view the
animal, is Northern man, who, born
bred, or fostered in the Union, has
no faith in the Union, and devotes
his faculties, influence and means to
perpetuate the disruption of the
Union.
"2. A Copperhead is one who, liv
ing out OF the rebellious States, be
lieves in the cause of rebellion, bu
has not pluck enough to strike blow
| for il.
SO. A Copperhead is q Northern
man, who, to further secession doc
trines would stab Union soldier il
the back while he was fighting th
enemies of the Union.
"a Copperhead is a self -mado moi
al and political outlaw, wrapped u
in selfish ambitions, and too degeneI
ate to place hiuself in a positio
where the endorsements of his view
might endanger his life."

Ed. REP: Allow me a brief space
in your columns to notice disrespect-
full remark, which l find in the filiable
array of Local Gossip in a recent
issue of the Union, Runners took
our town by storm last week" What
manner of men does our Editorial
friend refer to in this insulting para
graph ? Does he mean travelling sales
men, or does he refer to his social
friends from the country who are in
the habit of running to town for "lu-
bricating OIL" which is sold so exten-
sively by his Democratic associates,
for the purpose of oiling up and
brightning the dull sluggish geering
of his party? Is it this class of "run-
ners" that took this sober town "by
Storm" when their kegs were nearly
empty, and their ''fortifications" thus
materially weakened?
Tis not often that these forts are
thus volumable, especially just prior
to the s'Great Mass AIeeting,'' which
was to set the people right on "the
old and new departures" but Just at
this particular time they were troubled
with a weakness like ancient Babylon
''they awoke to find their sunset while
it was yet noon."
Runners! Does he mean CONNER
cial agents? =? If so, would ask with
what authority he applies the appro

Vote the County Ticket,

The friends of the Union should
be very careful to vote for the entire
county ticket. One of the plans of
the capperhead party, is to induce
Union men to ''scratch" their ticket,
and by careful attention to scratch
ing" throughout the county defeat
the whole Union ticket. The coppe-
heads are extremely careful not to
''scratch their ticket. should we ac-
knowledge that our men and cause
are not as worthy of support as theirs.
Should not the friends of the Union
and the soldiers, stand as firm as the
opposition. Don't yield an inch to
the approaches of the enemy. Ifany-
body is made to give let it be those
who are opposed to you. Vote the
clean and unscratched Union ticket.
Let it, with your patriotism, be sus
tanned and unsullied. Make our vic.
tory decisive and undivided.-L. Il

kU kLUX.-Of this organization much
has been written and said, but We were
not prepared to believe that it was so
Internal and formidable. few DAYS
ago, we had the pleasure of meoting
c. G., Grady who is SO well known to our
readers. knowing that he had Travelled
very extensively in the South. we asked
him for his candid opinion of the condi-
tion of the society there and the Ku klux
in particular. He very cheertully and
without reserve proceeded to relate his
experience and we were really astonish-
ed. He said that the marses of the com
mon white people are by far. more igno-
rant than the most degraded cOlored
people that can be found in the Northern
States. lie says that when the perform
ances in his circus were ended, the pec-
pie would stand around and that he
was obliged to send men TO the crowd
to tell them the show was over and that
they should 60 out. In regard to the
ku kluX he said that as he was travel
ing to his place of appointment. he saw
men layingbv the road with their throats
cut. ku kluX frequently came in his
tent in quest of some victim. with
drawn revolvers. These fellows never
purchased tickets of admission to his
show nor dare his door keeper resist
them. On another occasion last Win
ter. i'll Georgia. sixteen OF these lniCr-
mails came into his tent ut once With
masked faces and revolvers in hand they
presented anything but attractive ap-
pearance. Mr.. Grady says that these vi!
lains have no more hessitency in stab
bing or shooting men then our butchers
have in sticking hogs, On one occasion
last winter, in Georgia. (Mr. Grady lgave
the name of the place and we think it
was Smithfield,) he saw one ku Klux.
covered with blanket, take deliberate
aim and shot sixteen times, (six Ofwhich
proved fatal(. and then the villain jump
ed on horse and departed unmolested.
MIR. Grady is Il Democrat and vott that
ticket. He eXagrates nothing and au-
thorized us to use his name as we have
done above. We regret that space and
time forbids us giving his account OF
the dolngs of the Ku Klux in lull.

Do you know why some lawyers
are opposed to Mott? None question
his integrity and fitness for the posi-
ton. What is the ground of fopposi-
tion then? Simply this. Whenever
a lawyer comes into Court with an
exorbitant bill which taxpayers are
called upon to pay. Mott cuts it down,

Mr.. Drummer, editor Of the Union
was paid out of the County Treasury
$3.50 for printing Assessors blanks.
McClain protested against the pay

got them of Toledo printing COM

on two occasions and Mr.. Drummer

A. NJ. Jackson made speech here
last night. The ladies of Upper
'Sandusky were specially invited and
they turned out with rush to the
astounding number of taoo. We only
heard the last part of his speech,
but that was enough to convince us
that he is ademagogue of the very
worst sort, and no more fit to be
Judge than some professional gam
blers. Will any of our good citizens
claim that such items as the follow
