THE STATE ELECTIONS

We have met The enemy-and fce are
Meirs--not in our own district, for here we
!. have iriumphanily vindicated our principles,
and gained an easy victory over our oppo-
nents--but throughout the State. The
Wings have the Senate, the House of Rep
resentativos, and Billy Bebb TO boot; and the
Banks longer lease ofiins in which to ma
,ure their schemes for the plumber of the
people. The easiest solution Of this result
is, that under the present system Of appro-
prialisns, they have out-rotsd us; OF the
consequences, il is not worth while 10 spec
ulate we will realize these soon enough, II
however, we remain firm to our principles,
and fearless in their PRONUNCIATION, though
our present defeat must tend to defer the
period Of their success, 1t cannot prevent
their ultimate triumph. In the State, in
! this contest, there is one omen of future sue
cesB, and not slight one !: In Stark, Wayne,
&c. where division and discord among our
selves, last year, brought dofeat--this year.
union and harmony have brought victory,
and victory for our principles without the
adullera,ion of false opinions. This is a
aain--an evidence ofthe steady progression
Of correct democratic principles, and the
return Of right feelings. We do not be-
lieye that progress is TO STOP here. We have
full confidence in the ultimate victory of
Democratic principles in Ohio; and we can
wait The time when the people, having CIV
en- The democfatic issues their full conside-
ration shall decide, as they must and will
decide, against system OF administration
and laws that If not arrested, will make the
industrious freemen ofour State mere 'hew-
ers of wood and drawers of water" for
privileged few.
or We have had copieus rains during
the week, and our roads are, like our State
elections, not very encouraging TO the lover
of progress. Every time, however, that we
have occasion TO travel through the county
wo perceive signs ofamendment in our ways;
and we confidently anticipate that in few
years our principal roads will bear compari-
son with any in the State; though at present
we must confess il requires no small amount
of faith and hope TO come tothis conclusion.

extent. I, is accompanied by a small worm
which passes through the body Of the stalk

or consequence OF the disease we cannot say.
