Our State ElectiOn--Its Bearing upon
the General Government.

tne NeneftlA Governments
The election which takes place in less than
seven weeks from this time, is not merely mpor-
tant in consequence of the effect of its result
upon our internal affairs, but also deeply inter-
esting in its bearing upon the general govern
ment. Mr.. Polk's administration has certain
great duties 10 perform, the successful prosecu-
tion of which cannot be looked for unless it has
the strongest support of the people. The tariff
lis TO be modified, so thai the great agricultural
interest may no longer be the bond slave of the
manufacturers of the East, and taxation be equal
lied tho Independent Treasury is 10 be resto-
red, 10 the end Of severing forever the connec-
! tlon between bank and state the Oregon ques
| ton is TO be settled, and whatever measures may
| be deemed necessary 10 complete the annexation
of Texas-IF ANY-adoped. These and other
important matters are 10 be decided by The 60
vernment, and its action will be more or less de-
clsive, as it is known 10 have the support of the
great body of the people, From the West, in
particular, the administration has right TO look
for firm and unhesilating support. 1t is the
beginning of new order of things, and as such,
should be well regarded by that portion of the
country which has the most Of the vigor and hope
|of youth. Many of the western States have al

|istration. Indiana has returned large and most
able delegation Of democrats 10 the popular
branch of Congress, and will swell the liberal
majority in the Senate by sending to that high
body one the best of her numerous noble sons.
Tennessee has initiated the example of Indiana.
Michigan and Illinois gave their confidence to
1 the administration last year. Ohio, we hope, will
not be backward in this work. She has no mem
bers of Congress to elect, having done her duty
in that respect last year; but she has potential
voice in public affairs, and the opinion of her CT
tizens. as expressed through her rapidly-aE-
preaching legislative election, will be regarded
with unteigned attention by the government.-
! With her decision in their favor, the memberso of
the administration will be melted to renewed
land more arduous efforts to advance those mob
sures in the triumph of which every good citizen
| is deeply interested. To the end thai such a
decision may be had, let Us all unite, and work
ling as one man, moved by single will, destroy
the federal supremacy in this State. This caa
be done, if the democracy only unite, and put
their faces against all family jars, the existonca
'of which excite the friends Of unequal govern
ment to fervent rejoicings, while they fill the
hearts of the lovers of freedom with deep sor-
row. United, we can accomplish every thing
that we aim at; with disunon in our ranks, we
can accomplish nothing, and will sink to that
point at which we will become laughing stock
TO even the wings Let not so noble u cause as
onrs-let not our prospects of triumph and con
tinued ascondency in this great State, destined
to give tone to its neighbors--be iepparded by
the follies or the ambition of a few men who
aspire to sort of dictatorship to the party, and
who aims to destroy all who will fall down
and worship them. With union, energy, and
wel-directed effort, Ohio viii in October next be
redeemed, and take the place TO which she is en-
titled by her weight in the confederacy and the
character of her people--the head, namely, of
the democracy of the West
