Senator l. T. says he will win We

a man who was, during the war, and
still is, a genuine States Rights rebel,

Lincoln's hirelings. and in advance Of the
Republican party since the war, in favor
of negro suffrage. But then see how the
party took up Horace Greeley, Sam. Cary,
and many others, who told the truth
about "the organized vice and ignorance
of the country" and 'the party covered
all over with crime and infamy."
The case of the State of Ohio VS.. rhom-
as. Robert and Levi Plummer, had just
been concluded when we went to press
last week, and we had no time to report
the case The evidence showed that the
parties live in Washington township.
Levi is an unmarried man, and lives with
his mother, on the old road leading from
Young America Furnace to Hamden, and
Robert and Thomas are married, and live
some four miles farther north, and will.

came to the grocery of John Crossin,
near the Hoop mill, about or 5 o'clock
in the afternoon and remained until sun
set, when they started towards home.
The tracks of their horses were seen
where they turned from the Berlin road,
and went down the lane towards Star
Furnace. Clifford Webb and two Ger
mans named Bessman saw them pass
along the street between Star Furnace
and the jamestown Foundry, between
sunset and dark. They recognized two
of them as Plummers. They went past
the Foundry towards the bridge, between
the Foundry and the Depot. A man who
resides between Mr.. Pickrels and Mrs,
Bunn's saw three men pass his house on
horseback about dark, answering the
same description. Peter Bum, Mrs.
Nash and George w. Barlow, all saw
men pass their houses after dark. They
all reside on the Gallipolis road. Will
liam Spurrier and another man met them
on Bunker Hill" east of Peter Bunn's.
D. Lumley Jenkins resides, at Rocky
Hill, and was going home that night. A
short distance below Armpstead Sour
locks, he turned his horse out of the
road to get drink, when he saw three
men. in the brush, on horseback. He
was somewhat alarmed, and did not lei
his pony drink. He looked back to see
if they were following him, but he saw
no more of them.
Armpsteed Scurlock was in Jackson
the same evening and got home about
ii O'clock at night, and found the dool
of his smok e-house open, and nine sidel
or middlings of bacon gone. He traced
