The Union Convention nt Howling Green. THE PEOPLE AROUSED. Nomination of County Officers. Full Proceedings—Harmonious Action. 'i i The prospects for o largo turn out, on Sat urday last, were anything but flattering. About six o'clock in the morning it com menced pouring down rain and continued without intermission until eight. However, we, in common with "the rest of mankind. feeling an interest in tho welfare of our "be loved country," harnessed our "one-horse locomotive" and started in tho rain. On going up town wo were not long in finding a fellow passenger to "share our fate" with us, when we set out for Bowling Orcen. After it stopped raining, tho sun sooti came out gloriously. The people, too, began to turn out in large numbers about one hun dred and twenty going out from l'crrysburg town and township. Kvcry township in the county was largely represented; and, though not quite so large as ono year ago, tho Convention was respectable in size. Promptly at the appointed hour, tho Con vention was called to order by tho (.'hair man of tho Central Union Committee by ap pointing Capt. Asher Cook aa temporary Frcsident. For this mark of honor, the Captain tendered the Convention his unqual ified thanks. If ever there was a time for unity, a time when wo should come up like men, that time wan now; and our action to day would bo a leaf in tho pages of future history. About eight hundred of our friends wore now gone to sustain the flag of our country to stand shoulder to shoulder in defense of the best government the sun ever shone on. Let us then with the same una nimity join in solid column to cheer and sustain them. When tho rebels of South Carolina made tho assault on Sumpter, Stephen A. Douglas called upon tho Presi dent of 'the United States, Abraham Lincoln, and there pledged himself to give his Ad ministration his undivided support, until every State in rebellion should be compell ed to acknowledge the supremacy of tho Federal Constitution. That was a glorious event in the history of our national troubles worthy tho great heads of this Govern ment, and a fit example for us to bo govern ed by to-day. Upon motion Daniel Barton, Esq., was elected Vice President, and J. "V. Bailey and E. A. Higgins, Secretaries. Mr. Price moved the appointment of a committee of six to report rules and regu lations for this convention carried. The President appointed upon that committee the following gentlemen: J. F. Price, John Bates, Jas. V. Ross, L. F. Dubbs, S. L. Sar gent and John Ried. Mr. Dodge moved tho appointment of n committee of six upon apportionment of of fices carried. The following gentlemen wero appointed said committee: Henry II. Dodgo, S. L! Boughton, Dr. Wm, Bell, Win. Houston, W. R. Carothcrs and E.Graham. Mr. Chance moved the appointment of a committee of six to draft resolutions expres sive of tho senso of this meeting carried. Mahlon Chance, S. D. Wescott, Thos. (Jor rcll, S. Baldwin, E. Tullcr and L. Borden were appointed said committee. Tho convention then took a recess till af ter dinner, to give the committees time to make their reports. Immediately upon the adjournment of the convention, Mr. Ried mounted the stand and commenced pouring out a tirade of n buso against the Perrysburgers because they wouldn't sanction a movement in con- ! volition by wlucn that gentleman could ride into tho prosecutorship. AFTERNOON SESSION. i After conven tion was occupied in hearing an able and patriotic address by Judge Whiteley, a note of which will bo found elsewhere. The convention was called to order at 2 i o'clock, when Mr. Price from the committee on rules and regulations made the following report: For President, Asher C'oook. Vice " Daniel Barton. Secretaries, J. W. Bailey .& E. A. Higgins. The committee further recommended the following apportionment, to-wit: That each township bo entitled to ono vote for every twenty votes cast for tho Supremo Judges Brink erhoof and Smith, in 18(i0, and one for every fraction of over ten, which gives the following votes: l'crrysburg, 24; Middleton, 7; Washing- N ton," 9; Troy, 7; J.ake,3; Plain, 11; Montgom ery, Id; Liberty, 0; Perry, 11; Henry, 4; Blooi, 11; Jackson, 2; Freedom, 8; Milton, 7; Portago, C; Weston, 13; Center, 7; Web stor, 6. Total number of votes, 153. That a majority of all tho votes cast shall nominate, and that ever voter present in Convention shall be entitled to bo a delegate; that each delegate may cast a fractional vote in any township which he may represent for any candidate ho may deem proper. I, The report was adopted. Mr. Dodge troni tno apportionment com mittee, reported as follows: That there aro four county offices to be filled by tho nominees of this Convention, to-wit: Ono Auditor, ono Treasurer, one Prosecuting Attorney and one Commission er. Your committee are unanimously of the opinion that tho following would be a fair l apportionment and division of offices: 1st; for Auditor, a Republican. 2d; for Treasurer, a Democrat. 3d; for Prosecuting Attorney, a Repub'n. 4th; for Commission, a Democrat. Mr. Ried moved as an amendment to the foregoing as follows: First to vote for Auditor, second for Treas urer, third for Commissioner and fourth for Attorney. The amendment was laid on tho table and the report of the committee adopted. ' The committee on resolutions, thro' Mr. Chance, reported as follows: Hmulvtd, That the prosent deplorablo civil war ihas been forced upon the country by the Disunionists lies?19 ouuuiiru dwui, nun m ivtui, muab uic Constitutional Government, aud in arms uround the tCapitol; that in this national emergency we, banish ing all feeling of tnero passion or resentment, will Teoullect only our duty to tlie whole country; mar, this war is not waged upon our part in any spirit of oppression nor ror any purpose ot conquest or suo lugation. nor for the uurooso of overthrowing or lintj'rr.inn. will, till fl irhl nr n,.l,i1lt.l...,l tusl itut irtnv jjf the Suti'i; but to defend and maintain the supre Icnaey of the Constitution, and to preserve the Union, (with all the dignity, equr.'.ity aud rightof the several uuunpairea, ana maias souu as musu oujecm are accuuipiisaeq tut war ougui 10 cease.

The vote was then taken for Commissioner with the following result: Osman Diver 11, John Weaver 23, Henry Carroll 38, Addison Lansdale 78. Mr. Price moved the successful nominees be declared the unanimous choice of this Convention carried unanimously. On motion M. C. Whiteley was declared to be the unanimous choice of this Conven tion for Common Picas Judge. On motion Capt. Cook was declared to be the unanimous choice of this Convention for Representative in the State Legislature. Mr. Dodge moved that the proceedings of this convention be published in the Perrys- burg papers carried. The convention then adjourned. The Horse for Col. Norton. The horse tendered to Col. Norton by lion. Georgo Laskey was forwarded to this place last week, together with the following letter, which we have been permitted to publish: GILEAD, 10th. 1861. Col. J. S. Norton, 21st. Reg't.

The association convened ut the Presbyterian church, in Tontogany on Saturday, September 7th, and was called to order by tho President. On motion, ,1. B. Newton was chosen Secretary pro tern. Minutes of the last meeting were read nnd approved. Klocutiomiry exercises wero then engaged in, con ducted by the President. The selections read were as follows: 'Flowers," by the President ; "Life is a Treadmill," by W'. II. Wood; 'Daniel Webster," by W. A. Uenchnter; "Speak Kindly," by Miss A. A. Wood, and "Female Education," by Miss P. P. Tracy. Mr. Cornell, of the IVrrysburg Union School, was introduced to the association und made soma very interesting remarks. Mr. Ilollciibeck was then called for, and made some remarks relative to the art of reading, which were not only interesting, but highly instructive ; after which ho read " Rienzi's Address to the Romans," in a manner that could not well be surpassed. On motion of W. S. Tliurstin, the association ad journed to meet at 4 o'clock. AFTERNOON SESSION. Tho exercises commenced with a discussion of tho merits of tho various systems of Grammar, in which Messrs. J. W. Woodbury, S. A. Cornell, J. M. Cunning and C. F. Swigert partook with a live ly interest, each recommending his favorite authors and pointing out the particulars in which he thought they were entitled to claims of superiority over other authors. Tho discussion having closed, the Society pro ceeded to the election of officers, which resulted in tho following named pcrsous : President, Seymour A. Cornell ; Vice Presidents, D. A. Avery, C. F. Swigert nnd J. M. Cunning ; Secretary, L. Black; Treasurer, Miss F. M. Guinness. W. H. Gorrill tho acting President then deliv ered a highly interesting and feeling address on the occasion of his resignation; and Mr. Cornell, Pres ident elect, took the chair with very appropriate and well timed remarks. The committee on programme for tho next meet ing of tho association, submitted tho following pro gramuio for Teachers' Association, first Saturday in January, 1862 : Fokenoun Session. 1st, Prayer, Music. 2nd, Class in elocution, conducted by C.

The association was then entertained by the choir singing, "Wiso Welcome." Owing to the lateness of the hour, tho exercises in mental arithmetic were omitted. The association then listened to an address by Mr. W. S. Thurst'm, which to bo heard could not but be appreciated. Tho President being compelled at this hour to re turn to Perrysburg, the chair was filled by Mr. Swigert, one of the Vico Presidents. On motion of W. II. Wood it was derided that tho music for each session of the association be pro cured in the vicinity where the meeting is held. On motion L. A.

Thurstin and the choir for tho extra manner in which they entertain ed those present; also to tho citizens of Tontogany for the hospitality extended to those attending the association. The choir sung a piece entitled 'Home,' after which the association adjourned to meet as recommended by the committee. This session, notwithktauding the anxiety exist ing iu every mind, relative to our national difficul ties, was vell attended and a deep interest manifest by every oue present. SEYMOUR A.

' 1 1 K3uRead tke pew aYejrUtemeiiWj Patriotic Speech of Mr. Whiteley at Bowling Green. A Malicious lie Refuted. Immediately after dinner the peoplo be gan to gather in largo numbers at the grove nt Rowling Green for the re-orgnnizalion of the Convention. Judge Whiteley, being present, was loudly called for to niako a ppeeeh. We wero not present at tho open ing of his reiuaks, but we understand they savored with the genuine Union sentiments. Iu his allusion to the partizan bickering now going on by ono party, was to be attributed ono great drawback to tho grand Union movement in rallying to tho support of the Government, to tho suppression of this groat rebellion. He felt to say this was all wrong. Why should this be T Why the necessity T The protection, pence and hap piness the Constitution has afforded us surely was enough to cause us to rally to its support. In times of peace he had engaged in pnrtizan issues, but now when tho enemy nrc thundering at tho very gates of our Capital, the bickerings of party spirit could only be indulged in by tho enemy of Mds country's good. He therefore warned all friends of the Government not to be deceiv ed by supporting those who wero giving aid and comfort, to tho enemy. Now, he said there were a class of j'cople who were inclined to be continually linding fault with the Government. They have much to say about tho unconstitutional nets of the Pres ident, but do we ever hear from them one word of reprobation for Jell". Davis and his crew ? One of the great cries of this party is, " Peace, pence !" Up to the 22d of las"t February, ho himself was a pence man that is to suv he was in favor of an equita ble compromise a compromise between both sections if that could have been brought about. Put after that time his hopes began to wane, till the rebels declared they want ed no compromise, but n dissolution of this glorious Union. With whom would we compromise ? Suppose we were to go to work and call State Conventions nnd elect delegates to go down South nnd offer them compromise, as a settlement of our troubles. Why they could take our delegates and hang them, and you may rist assured, dele gates from that section wouldn't servo much better fare were they to be sent north of Mason and D.xon's line. The talk about peace and compromise is all useless mere pasttime. All they ask is separation, and I know my friends here will never grant that will you ? Several hundred voices with nn emphatic "No!" Another argument of this peace compromising party is what 'they call th6 Lincoln war for the subjugation ot tho South. Now my good Union Democrats and Union friends, do you suppose this war was w.iged by Abe Lincoln for the subjuga tion of the South. Democrats, Republicans and every lover of this glorious Union, have not stopped to inquire as to tlio particular politics of one or the other, but as one man lushed forward to Pi:st:tin the glorious sturs and stripes. Mr. Lii.coln is nothing mote nor less than the representative of the Con stitution, and as such m ist necessarily have tho support of all loyal men, or che it must be trampled under foot. Ave yo'i re idy to surrender your birthright handed down to. yon by your fathers and stil s ituto tin re'br the wicked schemes of Ji ll'. D.iv s? j 'No. never," said in my voiics. Tiiis w ciced rebellion must be pt.t duw and put down by force of urnis, and to t.i's end he was willing to lend his time an 1 aid. ami if need be, bin life. Now w:is no time for the dis cussion of the cauncs of the w,ir. but niter tho war was over, ho h d no doubt but that people would have their views on that subject. For bis ow n part he thought it would bo disposed of as was a question which occ urred some years ngfl in Philiulel plra, which has never yet been settled, and which never would be. lie alluded to the celebrated question. "Who s ruck Billy Pat terson ?" lie thought there would bo much discussion on the subject, but like tho man who struck Billy Patterson, it would never find a satisfactory solut'on.- Another po;nt in the argument oi' those who are disposed to cripple the efforts to sustain tho Govern ment was that tho President had (suspended tho writ of habeas corpus. Now he was not prepared to tay whether the President had violated his constitutional obligations in that act or not. But one thing he would say, wero he President ho would have S'U ponded the traitors instead of the habeas corpus. Loud cheering. These partizans also have much to say about the liberty of the press. Now those of his friends who were acquainted with him, and who had heard him speak upon the stump beforo, well knew that ho had been an earnest supporter of the rights and freedom of the press, in which was bound up tho safety of our free institutions. Hut when a great domestic re bellion is threatening our government with destruction, and there were presses engaged in giving aid nnd comfort to the enemy, and discouraging the efforts of tho Government in putting down tho rebellion, ho felt like doing with tho editors as the President has done with tho writ of habeas corpus, or, us he said in reference to that writ, suspend the editors instead of the press. These par tizan papers had much to say about what tho war was being carried on for, nnd sumo of them tell us that it is for the purpose of freeing the negroes. Now for his own part ho did not think that any loyal friend of the Union need be frightened upon that score. Tho Government had guaranteed protection to the lives and property of all loyal men, nnd those who were not loyal did not de serve the protection of tho Government. These men seem to think they havo a right to do all in their power to cripple tho Gov ernment, and then if they are called to ac count, cry out lustily for protection cry for the protection of the very Government they aro trying to destroy. Our sons aro going into this war by thousands ; these negroes are being used to build fortifications lor their destruction, and while he had all his life been opposed to liberating the slaves, yet if it became an incident necessary for the suppression of the rebellion and restore pcuco to this country, ho would say let them go. Since April last he had spent his entire time to the encouragement of this grand Union army, and he hoped every true friend of his country would drop, until tho Consti tution is acknowledged throughout tho length and breadth of the land, the discus sion of partizan issues, and ceuso this par tisan strife and partizan bickerings. If you keep these up how can you make your sous believe they aro fighting iu a righteous causo? You tell them you are opposed to the administration; you aro opposed to the representative of our very existence as u nation, aud you will discourage them in joining in this grand army. The whole truth of the matter is dissolution dissolu tion. Jell. Davis says let us havo separation and thcro will bo peace. Aro we prepared fortius? Many voices, "No." Jackson said, this Union, it must and sfiall bo vuo- sorved. I stand right by that Jucksouian doctrine to-. lay. Cheers. Ho said uny thing looking to tho exteuuing of the boun daries of this couutry ho was willing to submit to ; but that any party may rise up and attempt to cut oil' threat portion of that we already have, he said put them down. Better that the li!e blood ot the whole peo ple be drawn aud tho whole nation bo re peopled, than to sub in t to such tyranny. lie begged to bo excused for occupying so much of tho time of tho people, but said he felt it necessary to state his Cosition clearly and unequivocally, as he had been charged in this county as being a secessionist that he was opposed to this Union movement. lie was gud to see the people come up in such large numbers to niako thoir county nominations. It was evidence of that burn ing and deter joined spirit to stand by the Constitution, the Uuiou and the enforcement of the laws. He hoped they would take an ezauipl in the doings of the State Union Convention, that they would taks the beet Union men, thst thdr action would be har monious, that they would join in ono unite ! front, determined to stand by tho Constitu tion. Ho had been charged "by men in this county as having controlled the action of the Democratic party in lUncock county. He would simply say that statement was false, that a creator rsrt of the time he wns not in Hancock county at a'l, buUaway nt- ii'iioing io nis oiuctai uusi:.css. it was said that ho worked tho thing to suit his own figure; had them to make their regular nom inations, nnd merely to recommend him for Judge. That was equally false, for the nom inations of the Democratic party were made last April, und he could have had no control had he have wanted to. Put there wns another party sweeping over Hancock coun ty, tho gram! Union party, the true, unflinch ing supporters of the Administration in tho suppression of the rebellion. lit the matter of canvassing for volunteers ho had been pretty well over tho county, and what ho stated ho know from personal olnervat'on. He thought tho Union party would sweep that county with such a vote as had never been cast beforo. It is true that a party issue is boing waged in that county, but then it was dying -dying dying fast dy ing out, nnd by the October election, those who held party as the first object of preser vation, would lind about two hundred votes on their side of the house, nil told. Ho camo hero to-day to see and talk to the friends of tho Union. Ho Im 1 heard that the Union cause hero was even greater than in Hancock; and tho many Democratic laces he saw taking part iu this Convention, car ried out ,this conviction. It was evident that they came here not opposed to (he Ad ministration, but as unconditional support ers of the Government ready to join with Union men of whatever politics to save our country. Again thanking the Convention for its kind attention, Air. Whiteley took his seat, amidst enthusiastic cheeringj The Senatorial Convention. The Convention called to place iu nomi nation a Uuiou candidate for State Senator, for the District composed of the counties of Wood, Lucas, Henry, Fulton, Hancock and Putiium, met pursuant to public notice nt Ottawa, on Thursday the 12th inst., nnd was organized at 12 M. by calling K. D. Nye, Esq., of Toledo, to the Chair, and Mr. Foster of Fulton was elected Secretary. On motion a comniitteo of five, composed of one delegate from each county, was ap pointed by tho Chairman to report upon the permanent organization of the Convention, the credentials df delegates, apportionment of votes in Convention to the several coun ties, rules, &c. Tho committee consisted of Messrs. Ross of Wood, nail of Lucas, Pal mer of Hancock, Howard of Fulton and of Putnum. Henry county was not repre sented. The Convention then took a recess for an hour to enable the committee to make its report. On re-assembling the report of the comniitteo was received and adopted. A motion was ma le to lay the rule requir ing each candidate to pledge himself to sup port the nominee of the Convention on the table, and elicited considerable discussion. Tho motion was lost by a large majority, and each candidate was required cither in perf on or, if absent, by his friends to pledge his honor to support tho nominee of the Convention. Thereupon tho Convention proceeded to chooso by ballot its nominee fir Senator. The candidates were Israel Green and C. M. O'Neal of Hancock and Dr. Godfrey of Putnum. The latter receiving a majority t.f all tho votes cast, upon tho first ballot, was declared unanimously nominated. His name being loudly called, the Doctor took the stand and made a brief but most happy nnd patriotic speech. His platform is "no compromise or peace until the Con stitution is vindicated, tho laws executed, and tho flag of the Union floats upon every fortress in the country." To accomplish this ho pledged himself ready to vote every dollar of tho treasure, nnd every drop of the blood of his constituents if necessary. His speech was loudly applauded. On motion of Judge Palmer tho Conven tion adopted as its sentiments the resolu tions of tho Union State Convention, and pledged itself to support tho candidates of that Convention. The Chairman was authorized to appoint a Union Executive Senatorial Committee to consist of ono member from each county, nnd announce thoir names at an early day in tho Toledo Times and Blade. The Convention they adjourned. Its pro ceedings were characterized by great una r imity, friendliness and a conciliator spirit. Regret was expressed that no Democrat ap peared as a candidate before the Convention. Some of tho delegations had expected and hoped to put a Democrat in nomination. Dr. Godfrey is a man of remarkably frank and winning manners, yet possessing at the same time a good deal of natural dignity which commands respect. Of late years he has had very little to do with politics, but up to the fall of 185C ho was nn active, un flinching and outspoken Democrat. Dis gusted, however, with the conduct of Pierce in relation to Kansas matters, and knowing well the capricious, truckling, treacherous. heartless, unprincipled cnaractcr ot mat om Pennsylvania dotard, James Buchanan, with a discernment which did him honor, ho gave his influence to the truely Democratic young hero of tho west, John C. Fremont. Since that time he has been regarded as a Republican of tho conservative school. He preaches no "irrepressible conflict" ser mons, but plants himself fair nnd square upon the Constitution, the Union and the enforcement of tho laws. Such men are de manded by tho present crisis, anil his elec tion will bo hailed -vith delight by nil loyal H. H. D. Caution.

Messrs. pK.miy Davis Son Gentlemen Allow me, unsolicited, to send you a word of commenda tion for your Pain Killer. 1 have used it h, my family these several years, and found it nil it claims to he. For Rheumatism, Coughs, Colds, Durus, Cholera tendencies and dilliculiii-s, as Well ns dis eases generally that prevails in families, I regard the I'uin Killer as beyond all price, nnd as i-tliea-ciotis beyond any medicine within my knowledge. We keep it us our chief family medii in", and find its use in ordinary rases worth mure than any doctor. The testimony of others nir.org mv ac quaintances and friends is eijiially favorable. !Miiny clergymen have spoken of it in 'the highest term's as a family medicine. Missionaries iu repeated in stances have said to mo in person nnd iu their letters, that the Pain Killer was by far tho best medicine, used in heathen lauds, and t in y use it for themselves and families, ami administer' it to otheis around them. Thus much I am inclined to say ns an act of justice to yourselves, and as a bcHclit to others. You are ut liberty to use this testauionial. if of any service. HtV. W.
