God gaard oar Cag, and keep ?*?b atar Each stripe aa bright a# now tber wtre. Bfelll maki? it lead oar rank* in war, Still float aboTe each patriot's grave, Death to the traitor that won!d dare To trail it. through the daft of ahamt. All houeet hearts It ft lot will share And follow It to Death or Fame. The Vote at Beverly The ioldiers role at Beverly, Randolph county, standa 135 for ihe New Slate to none against it. So Adjutant Combs, of the 2J Va. writes us. The Vote at ISuckhanuon, Tne 8tb Virginia regiment, at Buckbnn non, cast their vote almost solid, the oth er day, for the Xew Slate?only three sol diers voting agaiosl it. The Meeting at Bethany. An excellent New Slate meeting was held at Bethany, on Thursday last. There was a good tarn out and tbe spirit of tbe ppople was cordial and enthusiastic. Disloyally is pretty much played out there now?having run its days and sunk below par. There will be a very respectable majority for the Xew Stale in the precinct on the 26th. The Meeting ?! Well.burg. The New Stale men of Brooke bad a county meeting at Wellsburg on Wednes day afternoon and night. Tbe most ma lignant portion of the Butternuts, of course, did not come near, but several of the milder type were present. It is be lieved that very considerable good was tbe result of tbe meeting, and that very few, if any, votes will be cast against the New State on election day. That Excellent Pamphlet. We have several times alluded to an ex. cellentaod extraordinary pamphlet recent ly issued entitled "How a free people con? duct a long war We have now on hand several hundred copies of this document for gratuitous dis tribution. All orders by mail must con tain the amourt of postage necessary to prepay them?viz?one cenl per copy. Several of them ought to be distributed at every accessible point and with the re quest to eicb person to pass over his cop> to his neighbor when read. The Meeting To-Night at the Athen. emm. The meeting that was to have taker place last Saturday night at the Atheneutr comes off this enening. Hon. Waitman T Willey and P. O. Van Winkle, Esq., wil address it. It is not likely that Mr. May nurd will be here although be may be.? The first named gentlemen will be here certain. We say then to tho New State men let us have a glorious last grand rally to night. The election comes off nexi Thursday night and to-night is Saturday night, and we will all be free to leave ofl work and turn out. Messrs. Willey ant! Van Winkle will make us able and oloquenl speeches. They are both thoroughly con versant with the great movement for tbe Now State having been active participants in it almost from the start. They will be glad to satisfy any and all objections thai may still exist in any honest mind. We trust that every candid opponent of the New State, if there are now aoy such, will rise above his prejudices and come out this evcftiug and hear the subject fully and Obly disenssed. And wo trust farther that every New Slate man will exert himself to bring out every such opponent. \otes arc not now an object in this can vass, for the result is foregone, but a wide spread intelligence and a universally en lightened public sentiment are always de sirable. No honest man desires to remain in darkness or bigotry on any subject. It IS his moral and pecuniary loss to remain so. All really capable and efficient men in this world are those who s-ck knowledge from all sources, and are never ashamed to own that their opinions are fallible. "Knowledge is power." A correct under standing and appreciation of the great is sues involved in the New State is an ad vantage in every possible point of view to the man who possesses it. Thereforo we appeal to all men, irrespective of party or opinion, to come out to-night and bear all these issues fully and fairlv presented ? Come prepared to ask any questions, if yon desire. The Wends of tbe Xew State know that their cause is sound to the core: that it will bearexaminatioa inside and out; that it has everything to gain by the deepest and mostsearchingexamination. Xocitiienwho expects to live in West Virginia when she becomes a New State, can afford to discard an understanding of her organic policy. It will enter so largely into his future rela tions with basiness and society that it literally atands him in band to know the most that he can. Come out then to-night while you have so good?so unusual an opportunity?and give careful attention to the speeches of Messrs. Willey and Van Winkle. No people, above all others ought to be so intelligent in this matter as the ciUiens of Ohio county, No county j haa to great an interest in the success of i the New State. None ought to take so great a pride iu being the banner county If:.1! .'n0-" IO b", 0881 next Thursday. It ?ill tell in our favor through all time to Odme. Hard Bits at tut Copperhead*. There was a great war meeting at Brook lyn, Monday cigbt, and John Van Baren made one of bis strong and witty speeches. Here are some of bis telling bits at tbe copperheads:? Yon bear remarks of gentlemen in tbe discussion in which they are engaged, their declamations agaist the suspension of the writ of habeas corpns. their ontcries in behalf of free speech. You wonld sup pose they were never allowed to open their months. And yet, if 1 judge by what tbey do, iostead of what they say, I Bbould tbink tbe difficulty was one tor wbicb tbe government was not at all responsible, for they are never able to shut their mouths. Applause and laughter.] I met an old usbioned farmer out loog ago, who said to me, "Squire." (in tbe country lawyers are nil squires,) "Squire, who is this taao that is going all around tbe country talk ing all the time and insisting that free speech has been crushed out by tbe gene ral government?" [Great Laughter."? Well." said I, "I don't know whom yon refer to." "Well," said be, "he is a man with a very bard name; comes from tbe State of Ohio; says that be got beat when the democrats carried the State; I don't remember tbe name." I said, "Perhaps yon mean Vallandigbam." "That's the Dame said he." Said be, "Squira, why can't be be content witb being best at home, witbont coming here to show us bow we can be beaten here. [Great laughter.] 1 bod a great many people tell me that we are right?that the rebellion is unjus tifiable, and ought to be put down?but it is impossible to subjugate tbe South; that they are six millions of resolute people, perfectly united, and never can be put down. I say, with Col. filler, of Brie, so far as it is necessary to subjugate the South, ."we wilHtry." I believe that the people who say tbat it is impossible to sub jugate the Souib are sighing to be beaten, Ttiey are people who seem to hope tbat we caouot overpower tbe South. Whenever 1 find one of these men who tells you thai you cannot subjugate the South, I always tbink he is a man who is sighing to be subdued and hoping to be conquered. 1 belive we can overthrow the armies of the South, and tbe intelligence tbat come3 tc us now iB calculated to confirm that con viction. [Applause.] We do not propose to Bubjugate the South. We propose tc subjugate Jeff. Davis, and set tbe Soutt free. [Applause] A year and a halt ago all over the Uni ted States meetings were held to declare tbe righteousness of tbe war, and to invite our fellow-citizens to embark iu the con test. I did not tnke part in any of those meetings, although my name was used as an officer of them, and from time to time 1 contributed such small sums as it was in my power to do. But if 1 had been one ol those men who assembled in Union Square New York, aod denounced these rebeli and invited men to go forward to the fielei of battle and put down this foul rebellioc against tbe laws of tbe land and the right ful authority of tbe county, it 1 had suc ceeded in tbat way in getting my friend my kinsman or my neighbor to abandor bin daily pursuits to go to n far distant land, to be exposed to tbe fire of tbe ene my, to famine and to disease, and if to uigbt when the question was whether these troops, thus excited by me to go forward -bou.d now he furnished with supplies, ane: now be reinforced by men, and should be upheld by the arpi of tbe government, anc tbe concentrated vigor of public opinion t ??jr, if then I sat here and cried while they were being fired upon and kill ed, and provided for no reinforcemeuts ane supplies to go forward to them, God mighi forgive me, but I am sure man neve would. Suppose for a single moment tbat i friend of yours should be upset, and tbu injured by a railroad, was carried to th nearest apothecary's, aod everybody shoule agree tbat he required immediate medica attendance, what would you think of i man who came and said, " Now, if be bac done what I told bim he would never bavi met with this accident;" or another mai wbo should say, "Are you going to bleei him?" "Yes." "What are you going te do after that ?" " Well, I am going to givi him a bath." "Well, that is wrong; know a man you should see. If you wil wait until I can send for a fellow that wil be here on or about the 4tb of Marct next, be will treat him and make him i great deal better." [Laughter.] Wouli it not be your first question on steppinf , "What docs ho require?" "Bleeding.' "Can this man bleed bim!" "Yes, any body can do that," "Then, for tbe love o God, stop talking and bleed tbe man. oi be will surely die." [Laughter.] Now what is required in this contest? Bleed ing. [Laughter.] This Republic must die or be bled; and these men wbo are in power are as competent to do that as any men. [Applause.] Do you believe that on occasions like this 1 would inquire as to the politics of the doctor? Or, when an army was ranged in battle, do you suppose I would go througu the lines before the firing commenced and poll tbe men to see how they stood politically ? Was tbat done at Bunker Hill, as far as you have heard? Do you tbink I wonld look into the muskets of our troops?provided they were filled witb powder and ball and aimed right?to see it Ihe wadding was made of Tribuntt or Worlds? [Laughter.] Tbo thing to be done nov/ is that the troops of the United States must be preci pitated on the rebels. [Applause ] Ox Friday evening last, Mrs. Levi, and I her sister. Miss Jacobus of Agusta. Gn., were arrested at Martinsburg, on the line of the Baltimore and Ohio rail road, by the Government detectives, while endeav oring, it is alleged, to make their way South. They had in their possession three large trunks. The accused, with their goods, were conveyed to Baltimore on Saturday. The trunks were examined at the Provost-Marshal's office, and were found to contain goods to the value of $(".,000. Hon. John W. Nosll, M. C., from Mis souri, who died last week in Washington, has been repeatedly elected a member of the Missonri Legislature. He was former ly a supporter of Judge Douglas, and when the rebellion broke put he threw himself into the contest for the Sag of the Union. Gen. Noell was a native of Virginia; re moved early to Missouri, studied law there and aohieved an honorable position, which he maintained throngh life. Just Liu Thiji.?One of the leading Peace Democrats in the Maine Legislature ?aid, the other day, tbat be would even consent to haTe slavery established in Maine if tbat was necessary to preserve the Union; but when asked whether he wonld consent to have slavery abcluktd in South Carolina, if necessary to preserve the Un ion, he hesitated and finally dodged the question.
