Prepare for the next Contest.

The Taylor men, continuing, as the
free soilers say, TO distract the whlg
party, by running Taylor, are getting
ready for another fight. They have
imported stump orators-their corrup-
ton fund will be freely used, yet all this
cannot save them, for the handwriting
on the wall shows that they will be a
used up party. ~
The intention is now to coalesce with
the Free Soilers-to buy up their lead
ing men and by general rush TO catch
democrats, who think our next victory
will be an easy one, asleep on their
posts. Shall this be done:

Well, let the official count fix the re-
suit as it may, there is enough in the
returns to make every mocratic heart
in Ohio and in the Union rejoice to
overflowing. We incline to the opin-
ion that the gallant and noble Weller
has a majority over mum Ford, but
nearly every official return makes some
change in the footings, and hence no
one can tell for a certainty how it
stands...when the very last official vote
opened may change the result. ~
The unofficial returns sent in have
been very impel feet and subjected the
estimates to great changes. The wings

show Weller little ahead, bu. few
additional official returns may turn it
the other way, as has been the case
once or twice already. We give the
returns just as they are found here, not
holding ourselves responsible for their
exaciness. But we repeat, the result
as it is, is so glorious alter the wllig
