WATCH THE POLLS 2
Libpk ont for Deserters and Men Who
Failed to Report After Being Drafted,,
We Would remind 'the Union men in this
State to have committees appointed for every
election district in the State, whose special
duty it is to note every desertgr from the
Union army, and every man who failed to re
port himself after being drafted. All thCse
men will vote the copperhead ticket;,ando l ur
friends should be on the alert .: ; They can as
sist their country materially by giving pro Per
information which will lead to their arrest.
We repeat again, therefore, `WATCH THE POLLS."
—ln addition to the class of tories alluded
to above, , whom the• copperheads hope to use
at the polls, there are still others who must
be watched. We allude to persons who have
been exempt as demented, and therefore ta ,
St for service in the army. If any snot} Pre
sent themselves at the polls, let their vote 3 be
at once rejected.: '
_
ifotf iNisstie Ticket.
The.lAptkortianphin county hope,
by one of:itikAttliar tricks at the polls, to
defeat onoilorlioth'iif the candidates for the.
Legislature on the'Vnion ticket. Of course
our friends will be Prepared on the day of,the
election, for' any movement in this direc
tion. But it is :well that they should be
advised a little in advance of the games
of their foes. Otir candidates for the Leg
islature, Col. Alleman and Daniel Kaiser,
have already faithfully served their con
stituents, Col. Alleinan has done his duty
asa soldier. Both have been faithful as
legislators. Why then should either be
rejected, for the best copperhead sneak
that ever wore a false _face while professing
love for his country? Friends of the good
old ; cause and the good old flag, see to it, that
neither' Allman or 'Kalser run a vote behind
the ticket. •
Beware or Rumors of Defeat of the Army
The copperheads
.unwittingly expose their
alliance with treason, when they engage in
the circulation of false reports setting forth
the defeat of our armies in the field. ; They
confess by this, that a rebel victory is the only
result which can help a Democratic candidate;
and vice versa a Democratic triumph
.. at the
polls is all that can possibly help to success
the rebel armies in the fell. We wain the
voter to beware, then, of these false reports
concerning the defeat of our armies in the
field. The gallant men ,who now . lead our
armies, Grant, Sherman, Sheridan, Butler/
Meade, Hancock, will take care that we get
glorious victories in the - field, and all that those
leaders ask of us in return is a victory at the
ballot-box. The soldiers in the field only ask,
only need,Ai victor y'of the ballot to crov3n, with
eternal glory the triumph of the bUllet Between
the armies in the field andloyal men athome,
there are reciprocal duties to be ..performed.
&nd these will be discharged, despite the
struggle of armed traitors or the lies of!sneak
ing sympathi;ers. ;

A Solemn Fact.
It should be borne in mind by the free
white men in this district, and particularly by
those who will get to peruse this paragraph,
that in voting for Congressman, the elector
will have an opportunity of deciding directly
in favor of or against the cause, .the effect
and the claims of the traitors in arms. If the
rebels themselves had agreed to submit their
cause to the arbitrament of the ballot-box in
this district, it could not have been brought
more prominently before the people thereof
than it now is, in the aspirations and
the claims of William_ H. Miller, for a
re-election to Congress. Miller repre
sents the cause of treason - in all its
worst features;_- He is a dirt-eater at the foot
stool of the slave power. • He believes in the
divinity of slavery. He desPises laborati:tml.
fit to govern. He regards the unitY;of the
States as. a mere compact to be broken
the nod of , a township as well as the - blow of
a Commonwealth. * He looks ripen 17ederal.
power as the mere dispenser of, political Pa-'
tronage, to be contended for by politicians as:
gamblers struggle for their 'gamea'andthe Prof-.
its, they bestow. He is convinced. that be
yond slavery there is nothing national in the
Union. He denies the right of the Fede-i
ral authorities to coerce a State, but believes
in the coercing influence of States 'against
the national power. He is a friend
of treason without any of the generous im
pulses of a soldier ready to die for that hi
which he believes, but with all the . sordid
cravings of a demagogue, willing to floatinto
place in the blood of his fellow citizens. Thii3
is the man, fellow citizens, who asks four
Vote for Congress, after he has 'betrayed your
most sacred interests, insulted your moat

treason, vote for William H. Miller. f ;If you

William H. 'Miller, and you . say to those
desperados, we are with you. If yell want
to dishearten the loyal men of the Smith,
vote for William H. Miller, and you say to
those suffering men, we are against you!
Here are the plain issues of the contest, so
far as William H. Miller is concerned. ..
The Prospect in Pennsylvania:
We have been carefully noting 'the political
prospect in this State, as it is presented in the
columns of our loyal dotemporaries through
out the Commonwealth, and the accounts' of
the immense gatherings of loyal,men, as they
are conieyed to ms by private correspondents.
Pennsylvania is decidedly* awake and to
the importance of the pending contest,' , and if
the feeling of the other Stated is in,aifyilegree
represented in this Commonwealth, I .Li#doln

in a confidence thus strengthened, Which
makes us believe that all is well in the old
Keystone State. The meetings are earnest
and enthusiastic and overwhelming rallies.

by works that must tell favorably upon •the
result. They leave all things- elite iowfor,thp,
political interests of the coin: ally. The people
leave their avocations in response, to.ealiS for
meetings, and rain or shine, make [each of
these a demonstration that alarms and &)n

Tim Democratic press, which has no fault

drawing his pay without rendering equivalent

stuff as this::
"The Abolition press are making quite a

In,order to insure more co.dectand complete;
returns of the ensuing State' election for, pub
lication in all the principal journals throughout
the loyal States, the Associated Press respect
fully request the assistance of the Chairmen
of the different Political Committees of the
several counties.
All the telegraph offices throughout the
State will be held open during the night for
the reception ,of the returns, and by an ar
rangement between the county committees
and the telegraph operators, it is believed that
a reliable estimate, of the, result may be pub 7
fished on the morning , after the election.e
The vote for members of Congress will be
sufficient, with a mention of the gain or 'loss
coMpared with- the vote of last year, arid" if
possible, the, result of the legislative vote.
There is no necessity for the vote:for loud
officers, as there is no State ticket to - show er
ectly the popular majority. It is proposed
that, the, Congressional, vote. should be the
first counted„and for this purpose the eo-ope
ration of eleqtion officers throughout the
State, with the Chairman of the l'Obtical Com

the latter, immediately. In order t O obtain

The train which left Hannibal yesterday
morning for the West. ran off the track seven
teen miles from Palmyra, and soon afterwards
was visited by a band often guerrillas, who
searched the train for soldiers and seized the
Express company's safe, containing about
$20,000. They took three revolvers from pas
sengers,-and then compelled the employees to
-fire the cars. A freight train, which arrived
shortly after the accident, was also burned.--
Three soldiers were on the train, but changed
their uniforms for civilian's dresses loaned
thim by passengers, and escaped detection.
Robert Loudon, a notorious boat burner
and rebel mail carrier, under sentence of
death, escaped from his guard to-day en route
for the Alton military prison. He is five feet

An official dispatch from Jefferson City
states that sixty of Col. Fletcher's men, of
Gen. 'Ewing's command, reached Herman. No

Gen. Ewing's troops have arrived at Rolla.
Allis quiet at Jefferson City, the enemy not
yet having appeared in that vicinity. The
rebel army is between the Pacific and South
-. o.t Branch railroads, with a train of two
hundred wagons,.apparently.aiming at. Rolla.
The Pacific railroad is reported not materially
injured, but the Southwest Branch is almost.
entirely in the hands .of _the rebels. The
depots and other railroad property at
St. Clair, .Sullivan, Harrison • and . Cuba,
and the bridges across the Merrimac are
burned.- All the golds in Franklin were taken
