OHIO ELECTION.

OHIO ELECTION.
The National Jntel'igencer claims
the election Of Nsadisonian Electors
in Ohio, by majority 1900 votes.
Whether the result is thus announced
for tie purpose Of operating on the
legislature Of North Carolina, or not.
we do net pretend to say. We well
rccollect however, that the ticket
which, has succeeded, and which the
IntelIigencer row denominates Mo
disoninn, is the ticket which wss
first nominated. and was denounced
and opposed b.! The Siadisonians as a
Tammany or Clintcnidn ticket.
"1'he following are the candidates
for this important trust in the state
OF Ohio. The FIRST nominated is
called Tammany or Clinton tick

Besides the above tickets. which
have since been, called the (frsD
Tummcny and ;ae second .hadiso-
niar tickets. two other lists were
proposed. under the names Of
Clintoninn and a federal ticket. By
the Iutel!igeneer it appears that this
Mad;sonian ticket had about 1000
votes: and Of the federal ticket we
hear ro:i':us at all.
On the whole. the result is, accord

to enable every candid reader to de-
termins for himself, whether now

But let us retura. We then. from

We congratulate tho disciples OF
Washington on the glorious change,

doubt, be occupied BY others Indeed,
should this not be the case, having made
our election to become soldiers, you will
readily conceive that, after engaging in
that way Of life, We should be dissuali-
fed for every other.
We could have wished that our COM
pcnsation nigh, be altogether in money,
instead Of the land provided for US by
law. The management Of a farm is sell
dom understood by men at eur time of
life. We would, therefore. propose to
exchange that land with congress for
ready cash, at ore dollar per acre, though
you say it is worth two.
We are happy to fad that eur parents,
some of WHOM, had guaranteed to eur
masters our continuance with them dur
ing the terms Of our apprenticeship,
will not be responsible to those masters
for the losses sustained by them by cur
departure from their scr,ice. Oar pa.
rents we wish not to iniurs; but, for the
losses incurred by our masters, We care
not pin, because we are convinced that
the pains they took to instruct US in
their several trades originated in their
own good, and not in ours. Besides
this, some of them are tories for SO we
consider all those who Gisapprove If the
war. That it is war for the liberty of
Hjttrsntices, at least, cannot be denied.
This noble act Of yours, gentlemen,
has liberated from stern yassalago
thousands of your fellow citizens. You
have exploded the erroneous maxim that
the year Of discretion does not arrive
till 81 ether years have passed over our
heads. Your late re-survey Of the old
tract, supposed to include the whole
quantity Of physico-military power in
the United States, has added to it many
valuable acres. The difference between
the late boundaries, from 2 to a de-
grees, TO the present, commencing at
Is degrees, increases the original sum
Of belligerent contents from 10 to Is
per cent.
1t is, therefore, wise measure, in
every point of view. AS it respects our
selves, We beg OF you to accept our
grateful acknowledgements.
