JACKsoN's VISIT TO OHIO.

tai of Ohio on the next 18th of july. Now
nothing could give more pleasure to the
supporters Of General Harrison than to
/ take the gallant old Hero of New Orleans
by the hand and bid him welcome to the
land of the Buckeyes. They would be
delighted to witness the fraternal salutation
with which he would be greeted by sold
lippecanoe," himself. They would be
Joyous spectators of two generous and
noble hearted old soldiers, compatriots in
the same cause, finging to the winds the
adventltions and unnatural restraint which
some heartless politicians would seek to
weave around their hearts. If General
Jackson shall do the people of Ohio the
honor of a visit. they will not permit him
! to become Gagged animal for the chara-
tans of the Little Magician to stir up with
long pole and make him perform antics
for otlice-holders to grin at. He shall be
received as the guest of the People of
Ohio, and not as the whipper-in of doubt
full Van Burenites.
At the Convention of the 22d, resolu-
ton was proposed by an old Jackson
man, which was adopted by reclamation,
inviting General Jackson to visit Ohio,
j and profering to him the unreserved hos
pitalities of her citizens. General Jack
son will know how to appreciate this
heartfelt compliment from the real people,
and he will obey its impulse much more
readily than he will solemn trickery Of the
affrighted Machiavels that now desecrate
the halls Of Ohio's Capitol.
! Let the gallant old soldier come. Let
him come, in his own Characteristic
high souled, independent, fearless Amer
ican-not as the instrument of faction
and his soourn will be among the
proudest of his civic triumphs. Journal.
! HARRISON AND REFORM, is raging
in Massachusetts, like a fire that runs
over the praries of the west, sweeping
every thing before them.
/ In Roxnury, where the loco focos
/ had for three years elected their
town officers. the Wings triumphed at
the recent election by majority of
278. In Quincy,where the loco focos
last fall had a majority of IS, the
Wings have now majority of 10.
!, In Bradford, where the two parties
last fall were exactly balanced, the
Wings are now triumphant by ma
iority of 1Ol. Andover, that went
strengthen the enemy last fall, is most
thoroughly revolutionized. Medford,
+ that went for Morton by majority
!, Of 100, is now Wing strong hold.
Wrenthan, that gave Morton a ma
iority of II, now gives 8 Wing ma
iority Of so. In Lowell, the Wing
gain is 926. In Worcester it is 20.
In Dorchester IS. In Salem as. In
Taunton, Gov. Morton's own town,
46.
In every town, that we have here
enumerated, the loco focos, up to the
:, day Of the recent election were con-
lident and boastful of success. They
struggled hard FORT, but their strength
was shivered like glass. Loco focoism
was annihilated in Massachusetts
1t ATTEMPTED to stand too high in its
shoes, and the wings made it a head
shorter. The reaction of public sen.
timent is like the surging of a mighty
