however, of such n resolution having

ViTc havo asked tho editor of tht
Tru'iinii', in this city, timo nnd ugaiu,
wtietlier lio indorsed tho Mealing of
the 80o00l) of the Soldiors Relief
Fund, by the Kidical Legislature,
but ho has failed to answer, lid d ire
uot deny it mid has not tho manli
ness or honor to tell his readers that
is so. Siiurii Atlccrt!cr.
Tho above silly lie on tho part of
AilrrrltHrr, either shows a desire
wilfully misload tho people or do
noto a thorough ignorance of the
proceedings of tho lint legislature
Thvrc is ot a tearJ of truth in it !
uo paper but ouo that takos up
ooutoiuritiblo ii of its party nud
retails tlio iu for truth, would bo so
silly ns to put so absuru a question
us, or any ono, as this. If ihey
desiro to provo themselves tho friend
tho Union party, tho tnemy of tho
soldier, thoy will huvo to go back
obliterato tho pages of our Na
tion's history for tho past six years,
tear out from evory loyal heart,
inoin ry of tho good djods ro
corded thore.
Ho is evidently thinking of tho
fiusun ilulhrt of soldiers
relief fund hold by the Domoorutio
treasurer of this couoty, in 18G5, nu-
he was oompollod to disgorgo.
Haven't you got the thing a little

Duty of the Hour.
Kvcr Uuiou man ia tho prosont

country, but also a duty to himself.
Having uiauifcatoJ his durotioa lo
country's causa ia tho hour of im
minent danger, by the sacrifices to
which ho submitted, or by tho perils
has bravod ou tho fields of bloody
war, ho has bovomo identified with
Interests, aud pledged to aeo that
sacrifices aud daugora oudurod
have not boon thrown away. That
fruits of victory bo not wrestled
from him, and bestowed upou tlio foe.
a tins is tho great question at
issuo now; whother the principles for
which our government coutouded,
bocome the acknowledged and
venerated priuoiplcs of. goveruiueut,
with loyal uieu to administer them; or
whether they shall be frittered away,
aud they who struck at the I i la of the
nation bo permitted to go clear of any
punishment, nay cvou purtiuipato iu
tlio ailjustiucut of the quustious set"
tied by the war. It will not do ti
pass these questions by, Or by inat
tention permit them to go by default
The consciiueuvcs will rest with you,
and be thoy good or evil, the respon
sitfility will be upou you... If by your
luiluro to do your duty, evil prepon
derates, it will not do to charge the
result upou your neighbor, Io your

country. Shall they who for six yars
havo stood firmly and steadfastly I by
the government, through all the try
ing hours of the rebellion, when trea
son encompassed us on every side, and
proved faithful to the last, be sustain
ed nnd their patriotism vindicated, or
shall Ihey be deposed in disgrace, as
unworthy their trust, and rebels
placed in the high places, and tho
memory of our thousands of brave
hoys slain in the defense of out free
institutions, insulted nnd ignomin
iously steeped in oblivion. Fathers,
sons nnd brothers, whj havo made
sacrifices on your couutry's ulter, fal
ter not in this last but not least
strngglo for your country's honor.
The ballot i about to accomplish as
great a victory as did tho bullet in

Judge Thurman.
A candidato for Governor is usual
ly supposed to bo a man of high mor
al and intellectual cultur, one in
whom is contoicd statesmanship nnd
pure oratory, fnr abovd tho loif wit
ticisms, and petty malice, of atump
orators, aud such must havo boon the
character, attributed to Judgo Tlil.'R-
man, previous to last Saturday by
tho intelligent portion of our com
niuuity. But alas, in ono whom wo
looked for all thosiTTju.ilifications, wo
found not n singlo attribute. Instead
of treating his adversaries respectful.
ho went so far nsto say that our can
didato for Lieutenant Governor.
roncral Lkk, did uot deserve, a ccr-
tillcnto for a common school!
Our peoplo nro too well acquaint-
d with Gaucral Lr.F., und havo too
much respect for him, to overlook
such low insinuations and will con
sider well such a slighting remark,
from ono whom it should become, lo
bo far nbove such personalities.
Instead of arguing tho political is
sues of the day, ho held forth in a
long story about tho atrocious mur
der of Indians by federal oflicors,
tho extravagances of Congressmen,
cto., almost utterly ignoring tho
questions nt issues, It would have
been scarcely passiblo in a stump-orator,
but coining ns it did from a man
who should bo among tho honored
nud respcotcd of tho land, tho iia-
prcscion left was anything but that
ofn (cholar or a statesman. His
chief success was in that of disgust
ing nnd tiring his hearers, and belit
tling the high honor of tho candida
cy for Governor, of the intelligent
peoplo of tho State of Ohio. "How
havo the mighty fallen!"
