The Slander Nailed Again. In another column we publMi a card' ignl by the wives of all the soldiers reccir in.: allowances from the Township Trustee, Iar.e H. Wilson, refuting a base partisan

slander concocted and put afloat by a few abolition jackals in this citv, to the effect

that they w re compelled to trade with Mr. Thichcr, and insinuating that the Township Trustee was instigated by mercenary motives in thus using compulsion. A baser nor a meaner lie M as never coined by imps of per

dition, and the instigators and otterer of the falsclu-od knew it to be a lie knew that they were giving currency, to a falsehood

without a rhadow ( I foundation, and for no other purpose than to gratify a wean, cowardly and malignant jolitical prpjudice

they knew they were lieing, mischief making scoundrels, nnl bored by putting this contemptible falsehood :fbat to frighten th;? Tru-te into withdrawing the patronage from

an honest, upright dealer and a Democrat

and give it to a contemptible abolition sneak, wliO woaM rob and plunder them in the name

of patriotism, and denounce them as disloval

and copperheads if tliry demured to the ini positions practiced upon them.

It may be an item of jrrati1'iention to the tir-x payers to know that this 'display of patriotism by tho administration cto carry art election will cost them about seven hundred thousand dollars, it being estimated that the average transportation of " each 'soldier to his home and back" was fortv

dollars.

b t t5U A leading abolitiom sheet in Massa- , husctts dcala the Secretary of War the following vrrii Ranted blow : :; . "Secretary Stanton has from the beginning ' made it a 'leading aim to bamboozle the peo-

.pie. --oboiy complains ol the concealment f army movements, or of the suppression of nny facts 4hat might be useful to the enemy ; but outright lying about the batt.Vs tVt have . Wen fought, and when the enemv isfullv in-

""'aiiirn. --' -

wonts tliey hae Leen asked to sanction n

falsehood and a slander, et atloat bv aboli tion charlatans for abolition capitol, and even some have been threatened with a withdrawal of the allowance if they did not do so

but they were a little too well posted to be I

frightened by this heartless threat, and informed the gentry that the abolitionists in Shelby county had no power to stop the al lowanceto any soldiers wife that the Trustee and County Commissioners were Democrats, ami as long as they remained so the efforts of-abolitionists-' to deprive soldiers wives and families of support would amount to naught In the article in which these slanders

against Messrs. ilson and Thacher were made, it was stated that a son of Mr. Wilson

was once selling some produce to an aboli

tion grocery dealer (the same one we pre

sume who instigated the lieing article) and on

being asked tu trade it out replied that his father gave Mr, Thacher all the trade at his disposal, and in exchange got his groceries at cost, this it was asserted conld be proven, (if aflidavits can be gotten here as cheap as in Indianapolis we presume it could.) We are authorised by Mr. Wilson (whose word would outweigh the oath of the entire crew engaged in this dirty affair) to pronounce: the whole thing a tissuo of falsehoods,, and also to say that he will give ten dollars to any one that will make an affidavit that he has purchased any produce belongiug to him in the past year. This is a fair specimen of the resorts of abolitionism to make political capital they have no merits of their own on which to rely, and by attempting to itralign the character and impugn the motives of others 'they hope to draw attention fioni their own deeds of corruption and rascality,- and at the same time establish a false reputation for honesty and philanthropy.'

On which, if not paid by the third Monday in March, 18G4, ten per cent penalty

Tite Republicans of Rush Refuse to Volunteer. On Saturday week the Repub

licans or abolitionists ol Rush county held a meeting at Rushviile, for the ostcnstble purpose of taking into consideration the proj rie ty or expediency of endeavoring to raise the county's quota by volunteer enlistments.

The meeting was larzelv attended. The first

speaker was that sweet scented pimp Bill Cullcn, the same dirty contemptible dog that participated in the drunken abolition

pow wow in this city on the evening after

the election. lie devoted about one hour

to the indiscriminate -abuse of Democrats being beastly drunk, as usual, he of course

was not over choice in the selection of lan

guage or epithets. After having exhausted

the vials of his wrath and emptied his sewers

of billingsgate upon the heads of the Demo crats, he commenced working upon his abo

lition friends, and advised not a man oftheui to volunteer unless Democrats set the ex

ample, and then only man for man, ie. when a Democrat volunteered one abolitionist might do so if he flelt so disposed There was never a speech delivered in the North

better calculated to discourage enlistments than this harrangue of Cullen's, and he so intended it the meeting itself was intended for the same purpose, and every proposition of which several were offered, tending to encourage volunteering were voted down. There were several recruiting officers present, all ot whom immediately left, unanimous in the opinion that Volunteering was ,'done for" in Rush county, and uniting in denouncing the harrangue of Culien as vil vinious and trea-sontible, and clearly rendering himr liable to arrest for discouraging en listments. P. S. Since the above was in type we learn that the Coratuishioners of Rush county, at a called session, have offered a bounty, by a vote of two Democrats to one abolitionist, of $200 for1 each volunteer.

Mr. Lincoln has written the most sen

sible letter we have yet read from his pen, in reply to the demands of the radicals of iMif-

souri and Kansas. He utterly refuses to r.ccd-.i to their demands for the removal of Gen. .c'ro. field and the appointment of Jeff Davis' former bosom friend, Ren. Butler (snakey eyed Ben as he is not inaptly called) in his place. He also refuses to disband the State Malitia of Missouri, a military force that has long been a standing annoyance to Jim Lane and his fellow thieves they were anxious it should be put out of the way, that they might devastate, rob, murder and plunder to their hearts content The President, to his credit be it said, has snubbed these scoundrels, Lane, Jennison fc Co., most emphatically, and we may next expect to hear that they are getting up a revolution in Missouri and Kansas on their own hook, for thes radical abolitionists are no better, if indeed as good, as the rebels themselves for while the latter propose to take a porton of the country and rule it to suit themselves, the former-propose to inaugurate revolution here at borne, devastate our fair towns and cities and murder their inhabitants, or compel a slavish acquicsence in their fanatical and destructive theories. Most true was the assertion of Gov. Rramlctte of Kentucky, that the highest duty of the patriot was to oppose the ruinous policy of the radicals of the North.

Result of the Elections. The New York TTerM in commenting on the result of the election in that State, and the remarks are equally applicable to all the States where elections have been held the

present Fall, says :

The moral effect of an election does not de

pend solely on the outnumbering votes. If

these have been obtained by unlair ana dis creditable means, the party outvoted may be in the best position for a succeeding canvass. The result of this election not being a question of substantial advantages at all, but only a question of prestige, let us look to the means by which the Republicans hare succeeded. If the result is the spontaneous verdict of a majority of the people it ought to

produce a very diflerent effect on the public

mind Irom what it should it it bad been ob

tuned by misrepresentation, fraud, and the

profuse expenditure of money, lne Demo

crats have spent no money in this canvass, or next to none; the Repubbans have never

spent so much in the state even in a presi

dential election. The shoddy contracting in

terest and the armv of oihce-holders were

their active allies, bound together by "'the cohesive broe of public plunder." Unable to

relv with confidene even on these advantag

cs, the administration has, for the last five

days, been pouring furlougbeJ mddiers into

the state in a constant stream, choking upal

the channels of railroad communication

Had' the soldiers of both parties alike been furloughcd to come home and vote, there

would have been no ground of complaint; but this outrageous attempt to suffocate the voice of the peopie by pouring in a deluge of Republican soldier?, while the Democrats are retained in the army, is a virtual abrogation of the right of suffrage. It is as fraudulenl a it would be to play a game of chance with loaded dice When suffrage is not a sham and a cheat, the two parties go into the canvass on terms of perfect equality; one Democratic vote exactly canceling one Republican vote and the overplus on either side constituting the majority of the successfl party. Ifone party could arbitrarily take six or eight counties and exclude all its pollitical oppo nents in those counties from the ballot-box while its own partisans are allowed to vote, every unbiased man woldd ay that a majority gained in this . way could give no moral ail vantage, but would be worth simply the value of the offices so filled. The principle is precisely the same whether such a maneuver is practiced within the limits of the state or in the army. Another fraudulent electioneering device practiced by Republicans was the adroit manner in which they practiced upon the intense

repugnance of the people to the conscription. Immediately after the Ohio and Pensylvania elections, the President issued a proclamation for volunteers. The Republican newpapers and orators were not slow to take the cue. 'Behold the excellent effect of these "Repub

lican victories f was the substance of their

appeal. "See how the President is encour

aged to dispence witn the drattl in conse

quence of the October elections it is already postponed till January, and if New York

will give him her vote, it will probably be

dispensed with altogether." This was a dex

trous dodge, but we do not complain of it

If the promise is kept, we shall he happily rid

of an odious conscription; it broken, this

dodge cannot succeed again, but will react

powerfully against the party resorting to it. fhat it has gulled many simple people we have no doubt ; but it is not a scmdalous outrage like furloughing Republican souldiers r.nd retaining Democrats in the army ; a proceeding which i3 on a level, in point of morality, with packing a jury. When a culprit is acquitted by such, means his escape from legal penalties does not wipe out tl e stigma from his chaiactw. The very fact of his attorney packing a jurv is an irap'i dconfession of guilt. We conclude, therefore, that the Republicans have gained as little in prestige by this election as in substantial results.

Discouraging Enlistments. If is every

day becoming more and more apparant that

the abolition party throughout the Northern

States is exerting its influence to discourage enlistments, at least so far na'tlie members of

that party are concerned. Gov. Seymour of

New York, with that alacrity and patriotism

so characteristic of him, on the issuing of the

proclamation of the President calling for three

hundred thousand men, at once bent his erergies to the work of raising the quota for his State by Volunteering. At every turn he has

been met by the abuse of the venal abolition

prcfe, which has lost no opportunity to misrepresent his motives and malign him per

sonally. The following extract from the

Philadelphia North American, an abolition

paper that could not live ft week without government patronge, is a fair specimen of

the opposition he has to encounter from the

abolition press both at home and abroad: Seymour's reasons for his course are purely political. Volunteering suits him exactly, because under that system the army is filled up from the ranks of the Republicans and War Democrats, the Copperheads all staying athome to do the election business. If any Republican governor is anxious to foster this state of things, he is at liberty to follow in the wake of Seymour. ' As for (he Uniou

men in Vennsylrania. they hate never feared

a draft, and trill take no particular trouble
