DEMOCRACY TRIU MPnANT IN
OHlO-FEDERALISM DRIVEN
FROM THE SFATE-AND
,HnEAClN PERITkED
TREASON REBUkEI

| IKEASO REBC hED.
We have the pleasure this week OF
announcing to our readers the gratifying
fact, that IN OHIO we have met the cne-
my and made them ours. We have not
at hand the official returns from the whole
State-but enough is kao1rn TO render the
detection Of Gov. Shannon (dcmocrat) GER
tain, and to give us majority Of l8 to
go on joint ballot in the Legislature, which
will insure the reelection Of Mr.. ALLEN
to the U. S. Senate.
This is, Cor many reasons, the greatest
triumph which has been obtained by the
democracy in any part Of the country
since l34O,-and while we would refrain
from boasting over the downfall Of our
opponents, we cannot withhold the shout
Of congratulation from our Buckeye
friends for the glorious result that crowns
their iabors May they bear their honors
. meekly. ana temper justice with mercy.
We are glad, too. that the disgusting
foolery Of coonlsm, cider songs and row.
Idy barbecues no longer find favor with
the masses. They have all fled or fallen
8 before the power OF the "sober second
thought instead Of drunken carou-
sails and ridiculous exhibition Of beasts,
we now have return Of reason and a
display Of human dignity becoming the
: age in which we live and the cause Of
: free principles, which, as intelligent free
men, we all pretend to espouse.
Desperate partizians, too, will draw a
useful lesson from this triumph of the
people-they will learn that power dele
J. gated by the people cannot be turned a,
II gainst the institutions Of the country with
: out meeting the indignant wrath of the
J. popular voicc-and that treason TO the
commonwealth is treason to their own
/" character. Traitors to their trus,-con
u demned by the people, where can the
rash recusants OF the Ohio legislature now
J. find refuge from shame? Thry will for
) ever stand monuments Of infa.ily.
.For .corn to point its slow. unmoyins finger at.'
d 1t would be painful to pursue the subjec
: further. We have great-a splendie
g victory to rejoice US! Why dash SO swee
beverage from our lips and feed tht
:, soul upon the bitter dtegs Of federal des
il peralion?- Such is not our philosophy
. so sswe'll have none Of it, Then,
