WE suggest to the Journal, (disunion,) that it place under our standing advertisement headed loyalty, the two last veto messages of President Johnson. By keeping these documents before its readers for the next twelve months, it will enlighten them as to the kind of loyalty possessed by the leaders of its party. It will convince them, if they tire disposed to receive the truth, that these same loyal leaders are infamous traitors. That for the last thirty years they hay^ been conspiring to break up the Government. That they provoked and irritated in every possible way

xnitted deeds of outrage and crime that would appal the devil, and make fiends stand aghast at their enormity. Is it n«y wonder that the loyalty of these prccious scoundrels should stink in the nostrils of honest men? *'4

Won.n NOT "BILE."—A man in Clark county having mndc preparation for a big dinner selected one of Ms finest turkeys to boil. Dinner time came and with it the turkey, but to carve it he could not, the fork refused to enter, aad the knifo refused to cut.— Fearing some fiend, in human shape, had made an attempt to poison the fumily, tho turkey was sent to a chemist to examine for' the deadly poison. In tho meantimo the servants were closely questioned, when the truth came out that a box of "Roback's Blood Pills" wero accidently thrown out, and tho tarkoy eating somo of them, they had takon all the "bile" out of bim.

Persons wishing to get any kind of Fresh Fish, will do well to call on our friend JAMES MOLAUOULIN, on Main street, opposite the Court House. lie receives them fresh every dnj-. JIM is a clever fellow, ond will sell you the best of Fish at the lowest rates. Give him a call.

Tetroleuin a Business nml not tionWhen men cf the national reputation of the •as directors of the Reno Oil and Land Company associate in a Petroleum enterprise, we feel tjt' sure that it is-no- longer a speculation, but a CJi'y. business. Our readers will elsewhere find the advertisement of the Reno Oil and Land Company, of which Hon. GALUSUA A. GROW is

President. This (Sompany, organized on a magnificent scale, proposes to make Petroleum a business like gold, lead, copper, iron, coal, and aa experience warran us in believing, far more profitable than either. The Company, it will be seen, owns twelve hundred acres in the oil region, the largest estate perhaps owned by any one company, The stock is so guaranteed against loss by deposit in the National Treasury, or investment in Government Securities, that it becomes virtually a Legal Tender Oil Stock. Every share will be redeemed at par on presentation at the office of the Company. We may venture tho belief, however, that under the management of the gentleman in the Board, and with the immense development fund, the profit will be so large that no holder of Reno stock wiil ever care to hove his money returned.

awaken the admiration of every patriot and lover of his country. Tho veto message of Prosident. Johnson,which another monstrous act of tyranny was stricken down, caused great rejoicing among our oitizens who felt that the Ship of State had a safe and experienced mariner at tho helm. Our display of the Stars and Stripes added to their joy, while it called forth curses and imprecations from a few miserable disunionists and traitors •who, if they were properly dealt with by the Government, should be mado to feel its iron band. If we are not much mistaken, President Johnson will yet take care of these sli my reptiles who arc trying to subvert the Government, ond who on every occasiou insult the flag.

"BEFORE his veto of tho Freedmen's Bureau bill President Johnson emphatically informed a citizen o[ Larayotte that ho would sustain no man in office who did notsupport his "polioy." This remark was made with reference to federal offices of this locality.—LAI? AYETTE JOURNAL.

Vfm. Broomley.the Postmaster at this plaoo and James Heaton Sr.. the Assistant Assessor for the Eighth Distriot,"would do well to define their position in, our next issue. If they are good loyal men and in favor of sustaining the Government, they should not hesitate a moment to avow it.

[Special Correspondence Crawfordsvillo Review.1 TFHE GRIFIAR TORNADO. In compliance with promise I have visited the section through which the great tornado of the 20th inst. passed, and proceed to give your readers as full a sketch as my space will allow. I have been along its path several miles, and I am of the opinion, that in point of violence and ruin it has never been exceeded in the West. With all its destruction of human life, stock, buildings, fences, furniture, timber, &c., &c., however, it still seems strange that it was not more. The amount of timbers flying through the air, proved almost certain destruction to anything living that was in the main channcl, but the people were at home in their houses, which werff mostly outside its principal range, for no place can be found in our part of the country of equal extent, where it could have passed, coming in contact with so few buildings.

was, ns near as may be, East 24° North. It entered ottfeounty about ljj miles west of the S. E. corner of Brown township, passing entirely through Scott and Clark, passing out at the S. E. corner of Walnut, a distance of about 15^ miles in this county. In this distance it seems to havo formed a gradual curve, about a half mile from a direct line to the top of the arch, being just enough to save Ladoga from annihilation.

In this coiHty, so far as I can learn, are Mrs. II. A. Foster and two children, instantly killed. Miss Josephine James, killed.

Of those seriously in jit ted are John Keen,

Many w"erc' less injured, among whom may be named Miss Bridges, Miss Secrest, oud Mr. Geo. W. James. (I have so far been unable to learn definitely

THE LOSS IN TROrERTY,

It is impossible to estimate. The least that can be done is only an approximation. It seems providential that it puso»,A channcl through the most sparsely settled'part of the county, and between residences, otherwise the loss of property and life would have been most frightful. No tree or building could stand against its furious surges. It is believed to average a half mile in width. In its main current nothing, but some saplings that would bend down and raise up again, is left. In our county, on this estimate, about eight sections, or five thousand acres are laid in ruinsv I can allude to but a few of the principal

LOSSES OF HOUSES.

Henry A. Foster, dwelling, barn, and outbuildings, together with entire contents, total loss. Dr. Henry Rogers' large franye barn, unroofed. Mathew F. James' large frame house and barn, with entire contents, totally destroyed. Dr. John W. Stranghan, dwelling and contents total loss it was neat ono story frame, just completed. John Frame, large frame dwelling destroyed, contents saved, outbuildings destroyed. George llccathorn, heavy log barn destroyed with contents. Jacob Lidikay, large vnluable frame dwelling unroofed and otherwise injured, frame barn and out buildings unroofed and wreckcd.— Sugar Grove school house, unroofed ond blown off the foundation. Martin Nehr, fine frame house, barn and out buildings, unroofed and wrecked timber all destroyed, lately bought $90 per acre loss immense. William Myers' large brick dwelling unroofed and splendid barn unroofed. William Frame's large brick dwelling unroofed, barn destroyed, part of frame'standing, and ont buildings demol ished. Henry Johnson's stable blown down. J. D. Schofield, house and contents destroyed. Alvin McLaughlin's house blown down. Z. Peffley's house filown- down. Richard Graves' new frame dwelling unroofed. Alexander Rogers' buildings all destroyed. Henry Hart, house unroofed, ond large frnme barn torn down. Jonas Baker, now frame house tin roofed.

This list is necessarily imperfect, compo sing only apart of the buildings injured and destroyed in our county, but those enumerated were the most valuable.

Next week I will give yow a description of the things as they now appear along its line of tcrrorand destruction, together with many strange freaks, hair breadth escapes, heartrending scenes, &c.

You will obscrvo the Ladoga Herald sets down tUo eouroo of the tornado at about 2° South of West, which is evidently a typographical error. Considering tho South line of this county tho base, the East line the perpendicular, and tho path of tho tornado as the hypothenuse of a triangle, it is easy to measure the angle. It is not however equal, being greatest on the South line and least on the East, cauS' ed by the curve in the stream. M. M. n.

EDITOR REVIEW:—We believe Dr. R. G. Englisn is tne first choice of the Democracy of Clark township to fill the office of county treasurer the next term, and would therefore present his name as such, subject to the decision of the county convontion, and respectfully invite his favorable consideration with the several townships in our county. The Doctor is a high toned, honorable gentleman, and if clected, we believe, would do honor to the office, and givo entire satisfaction to the public.

By giving this a notice in your papei^you will greatly oblige many voters in the Democratic ranks of Old CLARK.

Assailing the Government.

The President's veto of the so-calicd Cffil Rights Bill, has called forth from the disuuion press in this State an agonizing howl of dii* pair. The Indianapolis Slate Journal thus ventilates its treason to the Government: "The President sent his veto of the civil, rights bill to the Senate yesterday. It is more sweeping than the veto of the Freedmen'g Bureau bill, and he assails every seotion. We are forced to conoliide that "A Johnson, Tailor," or to speak more respectfully, "His Aceidency, the President," is opposed to the Republican party and the principles upon-which the war was fought, in toto. Ile'U smell brimstone before he gets through with his toe business."

The Lafayette Journal, a small weak barreled organ of the miserable faction of traitors and disunionists in the eighth district, whose editor is at present holding a federal office in Lafayette, echoes the liowl of the black copperhead State organ in the following treasonable language: "lie has built for himself a mausoleum of broken pledges, violated faith, and the disappointed hopes of a confiding race, and crowned it with the execrations of patriots and the laudations of traitors. In that monument, upon which will be inscribed, "Treason must be made odious," Andrew Johnson will rest forever in all the loathsomeness of moral and political dissolution.''

OUR SOLDIERS IN THE SOUTH.

Why they Desert—The Secret of much Gloomy Cor: cspondence—How the Officers look at it—And the Way the Enlisted Men See it—Discipline of the Texas

Cavalry—Behavior of the Boys in Re view—Custer's Severe Discipline. I [DELAYED LETTER.]

MOBILE, March 14.

Th:crc is one '"matter that does not appear to have been brought sufficiently before the notice of our military people at Washington, or, if so, has not received the attention it deserves—one, too, I take it, which, if not looked to soon, may breed trouble when the veterans come home to vote. That matter is the retention of the volunteers in the South beyond their term of enlistment. The soldiers are plain men, and they ruuBv.. t.lijngS

they

see them, about facts, and they argue ximv "this war" is ended: and if anybody should know when that very desirable event has taken place, I think it is the the blue-coats. I have talked with a plenty of the boys in these last eight months and know their sentiments, both about the war and about the managers of it in Washington and I know also that the latter don't very often hear, in official military reports, what]those sentiments are. If they did, it is my belief that the work of mustering out would move somewhat faster.

First, theu, the authorities ought to understand that the great majority of the volunteer officers look at the situation in one light, while the rank and file regard it in quite another. The people in the North are pretty well aware of this fact but Washington atmosphere appears to be as impervious as usual in this matter. There are thousands of the volunteers officers who want to remain in the service— the simple fact is, they are aware that they have "a soft thing of it," as the boys say, and don't like to leave it. All through the war the sifting process was going steadily on officers who disliked the service were gradually dropping out, in va rious ways, while those who liked it were transferred from one regiment to another as the old ones were disbanded, so that when the war ended, thousands, as I have said above,' still had a desire to remain in the army. I need not give reasons for this plenty of them will occur to any one on reflection, the chief one being that the pay is good, and the work easy. Not many men who are Captains now, could at home, earn §125 a month, and they know it. Besides, the labors of nine-tenths of them do not busy them one hour a day. This gives them an abundance of time to write letters to Northern newspapers and to Congressmen, and the country knows how well they improve the opportunity! Heavens was over such lying done? "The South is disloyal as h—I. The rebels don I like the troops here the women spit on us, and wont let us sit in the pews, loherc ice are so anxious to get, and they even make mouths at ys on the streets.

Even the children throw-mud on our tents, and stuff our fifes icith disloyal substances. O, Father Stanton-, come to the rescue of this people—this people that harddk their hearts and stiffen their necks against us— and keep us in the army, or all is lost/" Ono would think, from hearing these men that the country was going straight to the devil—that the Almighty ought to rain fire and brimstone on the rebellous and unthankful South, for that there were not five righteous men in all its borders to save it.

On the other hand, the boys in the ranks have a different time of it, quite. They don't live in luxurious Houses, as the officers do, but sleep in lousy tents, pitched where it may happen, in swamps or on a common, or in the public squares, and they don't write as many letters to the papers and when they do, they forget and write on both sides of the paper and spell badly, and so don't get their letters published. The officers have it all their own way. Meantime, the sumptuous Captains and Lieutenants are drawing their little $125 or so per month, and are either getting rich or else living in luxury and wantonness, while the boys get their sixteen dollars a month—sometimes once in six months, but oftener once in about eight months.

More than that, they see thouiiapcjs of men about them rushing in the marts of busy trade, buying and selling and makr ing thousands they get letlprs from home telling them ho\y "neighbor Smitfc or fciend Jones is making money, scopes of it," and do you wonder if they bocome(

restless? Di you wonder if some of the Goyerus of the Northcwest-^nriminal and fo&ish^is it was—actuary /vrrote, to regiment& in Texas private letters telling the "riien to'flesert-andeome liome, that was no dri&fe any longdr, that their,'suffering lamiies .juid farms needetl them—I say It is ftrang^thataUthis.yvaadoue? It is strange that thousand3^tensof"thousands of them. 3id delifert and come liome? It "is liard work to convince them that, as politicians argue^ the war is not over they went down-,to the gulf to seek an armed enemy arid subdue him, and they have done it, and that enemy, that once was, has been disarmed and made helpless, and'those at least who earned1 the niusk'ets of the

South, are no longer enemies, but friends. "Bring us liome,'^. the regiments cry out in thunder tonejs, "our work is done, let the politicans now begin their tinkering? our farms arc now the place for us." The country should not disregard this warning, it is not safe.

I could multiply instances where opinions ha,ve been expressed to the above effect, but it is needless. Scarcely ever do I talk with the boys, but tho second or third question will be: "When are you going to let us comc home?" Ask them what is the condition of the South they know what it is they are sent on a thousand scouting expeditions looking after negroes and their employers, and they talk with a thousand people of the interior where the officers see one, and what do they tell you! They say that the country, with the exception of bands of horse-thieves and highwaymen, is quiet that the people are at work plowin in their fields by the thousands, and that hundreds of times they have seen bands of ten, fifteen or twenty negroes at work with no white men near. From Austin to^Galvestion, Texas, I lately saw the latter myself, frequently. The South is at peace, is their unanimous voice. I do not deny "that many bands of ruffians are at large, in every Southern State, but the substantial people are quiet.

I will give one cr two instances to show how the boys think and how they maneuver. The 3d Michigan Cavalry was stationed, for a long time, at San Antonio, Texas, ana noted for the excellence of its discipline, the orderly not uess of its general appearance, and for its splendid fighting qualities, as showed during the war. Like all the rest of the volunteers, they were discontented, and clamorous to go home, and made frequent attempts to get discharged. One day their colonel said to them that the 3d Michigan Cavalry was the very last regiment that would leave the service that it never could be spared from Texas that it was altogether too fine a regiment to be disbanded, &c. The boys smelt a rat.

The next morning it happened that General Sheridan's Inspector General was present at "inspection," making a tour through the State. The boys knew he was there and met him accordingly. They came out to inspection in the most grotesque and hideous guises that Yankee ingenuity could invent. Some had one leg of their pantaloons in the boot, some another, and some both others had smeared grease on their boots and covered it with aslie« some wore hats, others caps some blouses, others dress-coats others still, in their shirt-sleeves the gnus were rusty, the rammers bent, the stocks muddy, &c. The contrivance had its effect they were declared to be in "mutiny" and ordered under arrest.

When General Custer was about to begin his march across Texas from the Mississippi, some of the Iowa soldiers behaved so badly that the General grew exasperated. They gutted the market wagons of the country people who were peddling among them, stole their chickens, cut their mules out of the harness, fastened burrs in improper places and played the mischief generally. They aimed to get discharged, but they had gotten hold of the wrong mau. General Custer meant to discharge nobody just then, so he ha four of them flogged and shaved their heads. This was contrary to army reguations, but nothing else would answer. After tliat there was quiet, but immense indignation:.

The conclusion of the whole matter is this the volunteers ought to be sent home, for they are the bone and sinew of the laboring population and are needed on their farms. The South needs troops yet, however, especially jin the Border States, Kentucky and Tennessee and Texas. Let the regulars be sent there and kept there as a police force, for they enter the army for life and as an occupation and are indifferent wheni they are sent. They have deserted in Texas, it is true, at a fearful rate but so have the volunteers. The country would be astounded if it knew what empty shells most of the regiment are is that State. But the great cause of the desertion of the regulars in' that they have become infected with the notions of the volunteers, and with the laxity of discipline that necessarily prevails among the latter. It isn't safe to discipline volunteers to much. Let them go home, then, and then let the rules be enforced, and the regulars will submit and be quiet.
