As to giving the vote of the State for Van Buren,,
that, of course, is ''sll leather and prunella.'
Neither wings nor democrats with whom we have
cCDversed, can allow larger vote TO Van Buren,
than Is, 600 or 30,CC0 in The State, including the
aboliionists. But, from that TACT OF ITSELF that the
greater pant OF this vote will be Quoted from the
wings OF the Western Reserve, our individual
opinion is the same before our arrival in the
State, TO wit: that there Is scarcely the shadow Of
a possible probability rerceptbie that the State
will GO for Taylor
From the clamor IN the newspapers of this State,
a man living east of the mountains might very in
Iocehty suppose that all the people here up in arms,
and that hey had nothing to do In Ohio in these
II q
Is, that but for the ewspapers, traveller In Ohio
would scarcely have any evidence that an election
was at hand, except an occasional liberty pole at
the cross roads, at country grocery, or at some
httle village on the way. The people turn out to
hear Weller, or Corwin, or Senator Allen, or
a Thomas Ewing, or free soil MIR. Russell, or
Van Buien wing member of Congress, such, for
instance, as Mr.. GiddiDgs, and then quietly 60
home.
Men of all parties seem to be stultifed and per-
picked into silence-they appear to be disguised
with pClltcl ins, and Indifferent to the result.
They don't know whatit is to be, and they don't
care. They don't know how the people are going to
60 in otne r States andm any of the m here do not
exactly yet know how lhe2 are going themselves.
From the indications of the campaign, if Cass
but gets an equal vote, for President, to that of
Weller, tor Governor, he will leave General Taylor
behind, by from five to ten thousand plurality /;
| and vet Weller may be defeated, by 10000 votes.
OF the free sellers. Their votes for the wing can
dIdate for Governor will elect him, if they turn out
| as expected by the wings, or as apprehended by
the democrats; and their union upon Mr. Van
Buren,, In the Presidential test, will make most
destructive execution of the Philadelphia nomina-
ton in the heavy wing counties of the Connecticut
Western Reserve.
Mr. Corwin, we understand to-day, is still out
In the western section of the State, stumplng itfor

| Medary and others, tor Weller, are now in the
adjoining counties to the eastward. Mr. Giddlngs,
tlee soier, Is TO be here next week, and John
| Van lie N after ~
Governors election, with the purpose OF keeping
up the free soil fire of grape shot, canister,
round shot, and shells into both sides of the regu
| lars, until the 9TH of November.
| As an evidence of the trouble which the free
solers give to the two great parties OF the contest,
we call your attention to the following wing cir
| cular:-
"WHIcs OF OHro:-Information upon which we
rely, has reached us that bargain has been made be-
tween certain leaders Of the free soil and Of tho loco

That such should be the outcome of all the preten-
sion to extraordinary eensbility Of conscience the

without parallel in our history 1t Is only new

THAT such bargain should be attempted betrays

We expect that there is no real occasion for this

then will begin, and not till tine Governor is dis
posed of, the naked question of the respective me-

shall have an exciting spell of weather ; but If
Ford by any sort of stratagem, is defeated, then
