Y HE LECTIO TUSIR LESSON. ,
The Autumn of 1SG3 has been a sea
son of rejoicing to the loyal people aud
of continued triumph to their cause.
Early in tho fall came tho gratifying
intolligenco ot tho triumph of the Un
ion pr war Party, over tho Disunion
or Peace party in Maine, Vermont,
Kentucky. California, anil Nevada, and
iu October these triumphs were con
tinued in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana
nnd Iowa. Now come tho November
elections, nnd the States of Massachu
setts, by a majority of 50,000, New
York by a majority 33,000, Wisconsin
by a majority of 15,000, Minnesota by
10,000, and Illinois, Maryland and Mis
souri, by largo majorities, fall in with
tho Grand Army of States which is
keeping slop to tho music of tho Union,
and marching down to suppress tho
robollion.
Iu all these Stales tho material issue
was tho same, that is, tho naked issue,
stripped of all local and minor issues
was simply, War for tho Union, or
Poaco aud Disunion. Aud tho lesson
of these elections is that the peoplo of
tho loyal States are determined to
prosecute tho war until all armed op
position to the Government is over
thrown, and to have no peace until
peace is conquered by suppressing the
rebellion. The result of these elections
is a declared purpose on the part of the
peoplo to uphold the hands of tho Ad
ministration, and to furnish men and
money to sustain tho Government, not
withstanding tho abolition of Slavery
in the District of Columbia, tho conns'
cation of rebel property, tho Emanci
nation Proclamation, the arming of
negroes, and live suspension of the ha
hem corpus. What arecalled "arbitrary
arrests" may go on, what are cnlled
"unconstitutional acts" mny bo com
mitted, but so long as theso acts aro
done to facilitate thj suppression of the
rebellion, tho peoplo will acquiesce in
if they do not entirely npprovo of
them. For our own part, wu approve
of most of the war measures of the Ad
ministration, ami boliovo that tho e
lections are ar endorsement of its poli
cy, and that tho most emphatic and
ti iumphant over received by an Ad
ministration.
Tho lesson to tho Copperhead or
Pciu e party is Death. Let it lie,
while tho car of War runs on and
crushes the rebellion. The politicians
of tho Peace party may loam that eloe
tions cannot bo carried on minor is
sues, when tho groat questions of Gov
ernment or no Govornmcnt.nnd of Un
ion or Disunion, nro dependent upon
tho result. Henceforth, if tho peace j
politicians aro shrewd, they will dd
claro in favor of tho war, and wo may
look for two war parties in tho coming
contest fighting the battle on somo
other issue than War and Peace; but if
they persist in their ill-judged and im
practicuble policy of opposing the war,
wo may look for a great and irresisti
ble Union or War party, winning tho
Presidential campaign against a fac
tion composed of Peace Democrats,
sympathizers with tho robullion, and
Northern secessionists.
Tho lesson of tho elections to tho
friends of free institutions will not go
unheoded. There is a load gono from
tho hearts of tho friends of popular gov
ernment, aud heneolorlh they look at
tho future with brighter anticipations,
and rest in a renewed confidence in the
capacity of tho people for self-government.
In 18G3 it was decided
that demagogues nnd traitors could
not do.'eivo tho peoplo into overthrow
ing their own Government, and that
they have tho practical senso and in
lelligenco to know their interest, to do
their duty, anl to govern themselves
Writing onr Prlaoncrl.
For some time the rebel papers have
shown strong symptoms of an np
pi'oaching famine in the South, and in
dications have reached us that Federal
prisoners in tho hands of the rebels
were being only half fed. A late Rich
niond paj.or spoke of tho immense
quantity of food consumed by 13,000
"hungry Yankees'' hold at Richmond,
ami hinted that, in case of greater
scarcity, when they would l;o com
pel led to ciiooso lielwcen their own
people and tho Yankees, tho Yankees
would nutter. Letters lately received
from Federal officers in tho Richmond
prison state that daily meat-rations
have been discontinued, and dispatches
from Washington announce that th
Government is about to take measures
to furnish our prisoners with provis
ions. What a commentary upon tire power
abundant capacity, and fatherly care
oftho Government under which we
I live, and also upon theexhaustcd, help
less and miserable condition of that
great failure of tho nineteenth ccntu
y called the Confederate Government!

many "hungry Yankees" in the Bich-;
moud prisons. Meat rations have been
discontinued to the prisoners, and tho
1 '
rebel army is represented as being on
ly half fed. Desertions aro frequent,
and captures of rebel prisoners made
easy, becauso of their half-starved
condition nnd tho prospect of suffi
cient food within the Federal lines.
While military operations during
the coming winter will be impeded by
bad roads, high waters, and winter
quarters, the famine will le at work
suppressing the rebellion. By spring
the new levy of troops will bo in tho
field, the armies will bo strengthened
and rested, and a few months' opera
tions will perhaps finish forever the
exhausted Confederacy. In all thisi
wo do not rejoice at the famino. Heav
en help tho poor of tho South, many
of whom are friends of tho Union.
But we recognize tho -famino as an
agent and co-worker in suppressing
tho rebellion over which wo have
no control nnd for which we aro not
responsible.
The Split Iu (he Democracy.
Since tho elections the Democratic
papers have run into an. interesting
quarrel. Tho New York World, Cleve
land Plaindoalor, and Ohio Statesman,
have declared iu favor of a vigorous
prosecution oftlio war, and aro gently
condemning their brethren of the peace
permission, and calling the nomination
of Vallaudigham a mistake. Bui the
voice of the New York News, tho Cin
cinnati Enquirer, tho Columbus Crisis,
nnd similar sheets .is still for peuco.
Tho Enquirer insists that tho Democ
racy nro for poaco, and cannot be
carried over to tho war policy.
Who will triumph we aro unable to say,
but "a house divided against itself," &c.
Tho best thing that could happen for
the Union party, is for the Vallaudig
ham journals and politicians to again
take control of tho organization, and
fijht tho campaign on tho poaco prin
ciple. Providing for ill SolillcrV t'ninlllo.

AVe invite tho attention of our rend
ers to tho above items, clipped from the
telegraphic columns of tho daily pap
ers, IV e would suggest to the larm
crs and business men of Fairfield, the
importance of similar donations to the
families of soldiers in thiscounty, From
observation, we know that many of (he
soldiers' families will ho sorely pinch
ed during tho coming winter for the
necessaries id' life. The lev) under the
late act providing for tho relief of sold
iers' families is scarcely sufficient to
keep them in fuel. There' are many
oftho substantial men of the county,
who, to induce men to volunteer, prom
ised that their families should not suf
fer while they were absent fighting
the battles of tho Republic. We now
call the attention of such to the sub
ject, and to the promises made, in tho
hope that they will look up tho famil
ics of our gallant soldiers, and give
them any needed assistance.
HOW TO STOP VIOLATIONS OK TIIK
CONSTITl'TIO.H.
The New York World, the leading
Democratic journal of New York,
publishes tho following sensible article
on the folly of the Peuco Democrats,
and the way to restrain what il thinks
unconstitutional tendencies oftho Ad
ministration. Eet the Peace Demo
crats read and remember that the ou-
ly way to "effectually restrain the un
constitutional measures oftho Admin-
istration," is to end the war, and that
. .
the people will not "allow tho war
end in any other way than by the tri
umph ol tho Union over armed oppos
stion :

siitutiontd measures of the Adminis-
tratioh only by ending the war, nnd
thus taking away their excuse. But
the peace mea liave been stupidly and
eijregiously wrong in supposing that
the people of tho loyal States would al-
publicans have dextrously put these as
lar lls po-k into the background,
!?ml l tho people the simple
i iskiio ft llm v!ii It. is the war. nnu
not the administration, which the peo
ple have indorsed ; and beyond r.n in
dorsement of the war heso elections
have no significant. We ask the peace
men to accept tho logic of events.
Tho war is,indoed, tho ready excuse
of the Administration fur its stretches
of power ; this excuse, as the advocates
of peace j.istly maintain, must bo ta
ken away by ending the war. But us
tho people have declared they will not
allow tho war to end except by the tri
umph of our arms, the only way to
bring the Administration to trial for
its malversation is to dispose, as spie l
uy as possible, of the case which stands
first on the docket. It is clear that
while war lasts no party can succeed
that docs not make its energetic prose
cution tho paramount object. We said
this, in substance, after tho Connecti
cut election ; wo repeated it alter the
Maino election ; we reiterated it after
tho Ohio election ; wo trust it needs
no further enforcement now.

Montgomery Blair is understood to
have said that his brother Frank is
not a candidate for Speaker.' He would
have been a great fool if he had been a
candidate after the Maryland election,
which sealed the hopes of any possi
bility of uuiting the Peace Democrats,
Border State men aud weak kneed Ad
ministration men, to get a majority.
Besides it is understood effective meas
ures havo lately been taken to make
General Blair, as well as his brother,
understand thit their warfare on the
Administration from the Administra
tion ranks, had better bo Btopped. It
is now stated that General Blair will
not be hero atall unless his vote should
be necessary to aid tho Administration
in organizing the house, but will resign
his scat in order to take command ot u
corps iu Grant's army.
THE SPEAKERSHIP.
There is no longer, therefore, any
serious opposition to Schuyler Colfax
for the Speakership except Wushburno.
According to indications from all quar
ters here the chances aro largely in fa

VIEWS OF TENNESSEE UNIONISTS.
A Tennesseo petition, brought here
by Dr. Bowen, asks that no election be
held now, becauso the State is not in
a fit condition. It asks that when an
election is held, only loyal men of the
unconditional Union standard bo per
mitted to vote, and that all others be
denied the right of citizenship, and
earnestly urges every effort to pro
mote the recruiting of negro troops.
It is expected it will bo presented to

The first sentenco of my articlo in
last week's Gazette was incorrectly
printed.' The sentence should have
read thus: "That that I fay is this,
that that that that gentleman has nd
vanced, is not that that he should havo
provod to your lordships."
Tho 1st, 4th, Cth, and 7th that s of
this sentenco aro adjectives ; tho 2d,
5th, nnd 8th are relative pronouns, and.
the 3d is a conjunction. The meaning
oftho sentence may bo rendered plain;'
cr by substituting for tho rclativo that
its equivalent irnt'ca, and by supplying
after tho 1st, 4th, and 7th thaW tho
noun thing, thus: That (thing) which
I say is this, that that (thing) which
that gentleman has -advanced, is not
that (thing) which ho should have

There is no doubt but that a grert
many of these sub-districts will raise
their quotas by volunteering, and sho'd
they do so they will not be subject to
the conscription, though the district at

will not be backward on this subject.

ORDINATION.
Zanesville. At St. James' Church,
on Saturday, Oct. 31st, by assignment
ot the senior Bish ip, (he Kov. John
M. Leavitt was ordained to the Priest
hood by Bishop Bedell. The sermon
was preached and tho candidate pre
sented by Rev. II. l. Latrop. of Lan
caster. Oilier neiithborinj' clergy
present and assisting in tho services
were Kov. .ur. .Mitchell, ot Uircleviiie
Rev. Mr. Bower, of Newark; Row Mr
Cattin, of St. Paul's, Columbus, and
Rev. Mr. Smith, of tho Missionary Dio
cese of Shanghai in China, who is visi
ting at Ganibier. The sermon was nn
admirable exhibition of thetrtio theme
and treni;th of the Gospel Ministry
and Pastorate: "God so loved the.
world that he gave his only begot ten
Son. that whosoever believeth in ,im
iw.ni.i ...it n.,..wl, hut al.m.l.l li'ivo
eternal life." The prencheHl ot forth
the"giti," tho "cause of it," and its
' purpose," in such a manner as to
magnify God's grace, and attract the
hearts of sinners towards the cross. In
a tew touching words the subject was
applied in an address to tho Candi
da lo ; by Bhowin'g how this themo is a
pastor s strength in hours when ho ib
called upon to comfort tho sorrowful,
to guide the inquirer, or to invigorate
tho departing saint.
The Kov. Mr. Lcnvitt has lately en
tered on this important field with en
couraging prospects of a successful
ministry. Iltvifrnt Episcopalian.
New York, Ohio and the Draft.
Tho quota of New York under tho
last call is. 00,378, with a population of
3.880.7:15 in 1800; while that of Ohio
is 29, 52,with a populuti m ot 2,333,51 1
Uudor the previous call New York is
deficient 47,057, making the wholo
number required of that Stato 108,835.
iho proportion for New York city un
der tno new cull is 18,121, against 3,
488 for Hamilton county; and, in addi
tion, New York must raiso about 10,-
000 of the deficiency under tho former
call, unless she makes up the new quota
by volunteering tho old scoro will be
bolunced. Lucky aro we out West in

to pay debts whon they have bocn suf
fered to accumulate, uut easy to pay
them in small amounts, as they fall 1

STAR OF HOPE.
If it were not for tho expectation of
future good ; something better than tho
present ; man would bo inconceivably
wretched. From tho cradle to tho
grave thoro is mourning nnd tours and
phantom doubts. W o seem indeed to
be at every step oppressed beneath tho
ban of unnropitious fate! Friends wo
cannot rely upon: we know not where
to place our trust. The past teaches
that tho sun ofto-day may bo bohind
tho cloud of to-morrow; Tho loved
onCB of our ow'n household, where wo
think doubts can never arise, and to
whom wo turn for consolation ' and .
confidence when a cold selfish world
presents its icy face, may, before the;
uutumn passess away, bo hid from our
sight in tho cold grave, and we left in-'
cousolablo: or, as timo flits away, con-'
tiuotit8 way intorveno botwecn us.
Tho wheel of torture, by a single turn,
or a succession of turns, may leave us
, in an eel poverty, xoseuso may rac
yet we do not utterly dispair. Hope,
blessed hopo, ever springing up, whis
pers, to-morrow will be bettor than to
daj'. Let tho tempest rogo; Irieiftda
torsalto, earthly comtorts ueparc ana
loathing diseaso torment; the star of
hopo is soon cresting the billows, and
will guide to tho haven of blessedness.
Blessed hope; gilt of heaven! day star '
of our lives, cheer us on; when thou.
