S. SLEVIN, C. W. EVERETT, And others will addraaa the meerhiif. Ael thtt be the Grand Rally nf the campaign. ORGANIZE! ORGANIZE! There thnulii be a regulurly organized Union Club in every townnltip tbronghotit the county. In some of the township, we loam that such Clubs are already organized, and In other Ihcy aro forming. This is right. No more cfllciont organization for the campaign cotlld be desired. Indeed, we have reason to know that the Union organ ization is more active and vigilant in every portion of the county, than it is in Porrys huig Township. Here there is an apathy mid indifTorenue exhibited en the part of a few who have hitherto imagined themselves te be the bone and sinow of the parly, and now they look as though they were expect ing to see tho dissolution of that party, the hoavens full, or Bomo other appalling CftlaMrophe, on account of lltviv lethargy. What asnrpriHS thero is in store for them. lint we digress. Our only danger lies in over confidence. We must work, steadily porsvering!y nml unremittingly, if we would retuin our supremacy in the county and the State, and keep our majorities uu diminisho'l. To this end, a thorough or ganization in every townihip.school district and villngo n necessary. Clubs should be organized in every locality, and work zeal ously and earnestly until the election, lly this plan, and by this plan only enn a full vote bo obtained, and an overwhelming Union triumph. Republicans! Union monl arouse your selves 1 The sympathizers with, and the aiders and abetters of, rebellion and treason have challenged us to Ihe combat. Lot us not decline it ; but lot us moot and coniuor them. Up and at thorn I , , TO-MORROW. To-morrow the Democracy of this county aro to moot at Howling Green, to plnoo a oounty ticket in the Geld. They have boon laboring burd for weeks in waiting and watching" for something to turn up." Well awaro of the fact that they are in a hopeless minority in the county, they have been on the alert to tuke advantage of any dtssen sions in the Republican ranks. To this end thoy have sought to bring out, what tliey are pleased to term, a " People' Ticket," to be composed of both Republicans and Demo crats, hoping thereby to secure ono or two offices to their parly, if no more. Indeed, il is a very nico little arrangomont, for they have nothing to lose by the operation. What their euccexs has been, wo have not tho means of knowing. All kinds of rumor have reached our ears, but as yet we do not believo they have found single Republican willing to ancriflce himself to their wishes. We don't believe there ia a Republican in the county silly enough to tako snub a bait. Whatever tickot they may get tip in opposition to tho one now in the fluid, it is doomed to an overwhelming dufcat, aud the Republican who would Bulfur lii numo to go on that lickot imty just write himself on the roll of political suicides. ' HON. GEORGE H. PENDLETON. This profound scholar and accomplished gentleman, but bitter partisan aud intense sympathiser with the rebellious element of tho oiuntry, is advovtised to addrcHS the Democracy in PerryMburg, to-day. Mr. Penulkton advocates what he calls the pay ment of the United Stale 6:20 bonds In greenbacks, and he will undoubt edly elucidate hi proportion to the entire satiufuetioq, atk-aatrctf all those who are admirer of Vii.r.ANwiAa, Thurman & Co. Tuis proposal te pay the national debt in greenback,, is-only smother name fur Repu diation, ltianot atv open, simple refusal to pay the debt,, but mean evasion of its obligations. ' And thia m the doctrine prouchod by, Mr. PaNDt.ifosr. . 1V shotild be glad tudoed, to eoe our bonds retired at the lowest possible rate of interest, but every such arrangement must be made on the bukis of the strictest observance of tho public faith. The crodit of the nation ia it great safeguard in the time of war and peri). We cannot afford to tarnish our honor and faith. But Mr. PKNni.RTo.v and his colleagues discuss this matter in such a way as to show that they care nothing about any pledge of Government laith. l'hoir appeals are to self-interest and to the sordid instincts of tho heart. But we do not be lieve they can deceive and mislead the American people thus, for it is apparent to the thinking and intelligent that this green back proposal and all this talk of taxes and debt ar only intended to pave the way to repudiation and national dishonor. THE AUDITORSHIP. In another place will be found the card of Apdmon Smith, Esq., of Terrysburg, who announce himself as an independent can didate for County Audi tor, " in compliance with the wishes of many long-known (fiends of both pclitioal parties." He may with propriety exclaim, " save me from my friendx," for the time ia not far distant, when be will see the folly of thia ill-adviaad step, and will regret that he complied ao easily " with the wish" of thoit, " many long-known friends." We so through this movement cut, dried and sugared as it ia, and shall give the matter due promi neuce and exposition in our next issue. We will say right here, however, that the Re publicans of Wood County are not to be caught with that kind of chuff. THE AMENDMENT. that existed a few months ago among; Union men in the southern portion of th Stato, the Constitutional Aniondmnut, ha disap peared. This opposition bus been dissipated as much by tho violence, and shallowness of Copperhead loio a by the solid argu ment arrayed iu favor of a measure founded, in the very nature of things, upen equity and right. Gkniial Csaxt has, within the laat two or three day, expressed a tear that thrr is trouble ahead. One gentleman who talkad willi him, says he manifested great solicitude in speaking of the potaible and probable evut of th next thr month. JOHNSON vs. JOHNSON. The Ohio Slate Jont'nat aptly brings I ito juxtaposition Ihe two proelnrnations rr eently promulgated by Hi Aocldeney, at Washing ton. On was issued on the .11 of 8oitembcr and (be other on the lib; four days aftorwards. In their statontents-onn-corning ono important fact, they flatly con trrdict each other. . The proclamation ia sued on the 7th inat. doclares thnt ' Wnf RSASi flurs now txlsts nnorgsnisud armed reaiatanra nf misguided citirens, or oihrrt, to the sathm-Ky nt the United rUate In the" Ptates of Oeorgla, Smith Girvlinn, Virginia, JVrfA Ciroi'in, Tenneaaee.

From this we are led to infer that poaoe and order reign tliroughout. the South, and that no resistance is offered to the au thority of the United States by the lato rebels, by '' misguided citV.ous, or others;" aud that " (here no longer exists any reason able ground" to apprehend any such re sistance. Truly a great change had been alluded in period of four days' time, for iu his proclamation of the 3d inst., we road WflRSRAS, imjitdimenU and ohtruelnnt teriottt in their chnnteier, have-recently been interpose d in th Htates of AWA Carolina and AnntK Uarolinn, ninauring ana preventing, tor a timo, a proper en forcement therein of the laws of the United Htates, and or the judgmenta and decrees of a lawful court thereof, in disregard of the command of the i'res dent of tho United Htates, and WhRRKAS, reafonnnfa and well-founded appreen roa exitt, that such ill-advised and unlawful pro eeedings may be attempted thero, or elsewhere. On the 3d inst., the President saw imped iments and obstructions, serious iu their character, preventing tho enforcement of the laws, but on tTio 7th he saw nothing of the kind. Tlioro scorns to be no method in his madness, or he would have a lit Mo care as to consistency in tho etatemont of fact. From every Indication, the Tenth Diatrict will roll up an overwhelming Union major ity in October. Everything is cheering. The meetings are largely attended, and an earnest enthusiiiHtn is everywhere niani fostod. V AU.ANDHitiA.M and Pkkdlktoh are both in the District to-day, and they will add votes to the Republican cause. Soldiers! Soldier of Ohio I In the Capitol of Col umbus aro preserved the glorious banners which your own frauds curried through the torm and llama of a terrible four years' war for tho Union. They are torn by the bullets slid shells nf rebels, blackened with the smoke of battle and the pitiless winter storm, and soma of them stuiued by the blood of their brave defenders. Your valor has crowned them with wreaths of victory in spite of tho sympathy, aid and comfort given Ihoso you fought by Thurni in Val landighnm and their pr,y. They are sacred relics to you and your noble State. Are yon ready to have them transferred to tho treacherous party which vili fied yon. denied yonr olvil rights when in the Held, and gave all possible moral aid to the enemies of your country f Do you want Judge Thtirman end lady, who, whilo enter taining their housefuls of rebel prisoners, had not a word of sympathy or a crumb of comfort to send to tho brave boys in blue who languished in the hospitals with wounds aud disease do yoti want such per sons to bocomo the custodians, of those laureled banners? Citizens of 'Ohio 1 do you want those glorious flags, baptized with the blood of yonr sons and brothers, placed in such keeping? Do you want such a party to become tho custodian of the honor of your State and the safety of your country ? Answer on the second Tuesday of next October. Delaware Oa telle. The Impending Revolution. That the rebels in around Washington contemplate an attempt on tho part of tho President to prevent the assembling of Con- grosH. thero is no doubt. All through Maryland aro the traitors organizing and arming lor that . expected event. In this emergency the country looks to General Grant. No man living bears the weight of responsibility that now rests upon the shoulders of Gonoral Grant. It may be come his duty to stand in the gap, and to maKe cnoice wnetner he will go with, the Executive or with tho loyal people. We cannot bear to contemplate such a dilemma, but me signs ol the times warrant the gravest apprehension, for we believo the country Is in imminent peril: and that Grant, just how, is the man who must be looked to. That Grant is true to the Con gressional policy, aud to tho loyal senti- mentol the land, wo have no inoro doubt than that ho was true to his ti.ig in the darkest day of the war. Cleveland lleraUl. A Democratic Victory. Tho Domocratio victory in Maino consists of twenty-four Republicans to seven Dem ocrat, in the State Senate, and a Republican majority ot more than two thirds in the House, all the Mate otuccs and the entire delegation in Congress in tho hands of tho Kopublicans. and amaiority nf about 11.1)00 on the popular vote. The Portland 1're.ts says that without any effort or organization they nave carried the election by about tlmir average majority. There was no cam pnign, and no canvass. 1 1 1 let does not sound well for the Republicans of Maine but it is a queqr Democratic victory to bring out mummy roosters upon and keep them stai.ding for day. But thia is the age of small Domocratio expectations. Cm- cui hu(i Uaielle. The Congressional Majority. to The Democratic victory of one Coneress' mm iu Calitoruia, and the Republican ga'ii of one Reiirraenturrve in Nebraska, will leave the IIoukb with 147 Republican mem ber to 46 Democrats. With more .than three-fourth of each House of Congross Republican, it will take many such Demo oratio victories to disable the Republican control of legislation, or to make a surTloient Northern Democratic, contingent for Mr. Johnsons Southern Congross. And this event, reminding the people what the party is that ha carried a Northern State, and snowing them tha gulf Into which their upineuess may plunge the country, will be likely to arouse an activity that will pre vent any spread ol tin inloouou Cmcin nati (Jazcttt. It ia now elated that the President will endeavor to avoid a direct conflict with Congress, by issuing hi instructions to re open the regiatry lists, and postpoua the election in the Southern States, iu the form of a strong tuggostiju aud not a an imperative order. Gcnkkal IIkairkoaso was dined by a hundred of hi triend in New York, Tuo. dty night.

Democratic Calculations. Th Columbus correspondent of th Cincinnati Commercial mnkos public the figuring nf the Copperhead managers of ths State. Thoy intend, if possible and upon tin point all tlivir atrongth i being et peudod to carry a majority ' of both branchns of tho Legislature, and they have selectod the districts and counties which they have marked "doubtful," and fool qnite confident of carrying. Among the Representative districts we notice that composed of Williams, Paulding and De fiance, and of tho Senatorial district upon which they have cast greedy eye the Thirty-third is prominent. They have se lected these points for their hardest work, artd inslriroted thetr fuglemen in each to take advantnge of all causes for dissatisfac tion, local or general, and to bring every agency they can command to bear upon the one p int, the Legislature. In the Williams, Paulding aud Defiance District they depend upon the npatliy of the Republicans ol William and Defiance and an nnfortnnate division in Paulding, and the Thirty third Senatorial District thoy hope to carry by. dint of hard work and tho indolence of the Ropublioaus. Not to lose a point in the game,- they forced Jus. 0. Haley, one of their nominees, to deoline the nomination that Henry lirown, of Hancock, a more ac complished demagogue, might be put upon the tranktand all the diffeionoes of opinion, all tho jealousies, heart-burnings and dis appointments are being industriously man ii ulated, with a view of overcoming the. 1.300 majority of lust fall, and Betiding to tho Senate ono at least of their two nomi nees. Do the Ropublicans of tho Northwestern Districts appreciate the importance of the eloctioti this fall? Do thoy understand the catiso of this intense anxiety on the part of the Democracy for success? and why they are willing in all the doubtful coun ties, to trade everything for mouibors of the Lgial iture ? The object of all this work and trading is the election of Val lnndigl ntn in the Senate of the United States in ih ) place of Wade. Tlmt is all there is of it. Thoy desire, abovo all other earthly thing, the elevation of thoir great lender during tho war, who from his Canadian homo directed their movements aud dic tated their policy, to Ihe Senate of the United States, iu tho place of one in all particulars his opposite. To this end tho Democracy of Ohio nre putting forth a greater effort than ever before Binoo the or ganization of the party. To this end nre they fomenting divisions in our ranks, and bringing in petty sido issues to didlract tho attention of the pcoplo. It is for onrselvos to say vhcthor this financiering shall be successful nr not. It may bo that the action of tho Ropublicans nf any one of the counties will docido the Senatorial question, whiuh is really tho im portant inHiio this lull. Every voter He el ires when he deposits his b.illot his proferenco for Vallaudighani or Wa'te, n directly as though it iiad the name of his favorite prinlod upon it. Shall wo, through indolence, npatliy or indifference, permit Ohio to bo represented in tlio Senate by a man exiled, and justly, for disloyalty to the Govornnicnl? Blade. ' ' NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
