SENATORIAL APPoRrloNMENT OF
THE NEW CONSTITUTION.

fHE NEH CONStTfgtlON
Our Psnsrqsls ftiepd, over The way, ana
nOunesd in his PaPsI Of the lst inst, (and
in fact il was the Oply thing that cane GOm
bis Mighfy ~ pen Of that dale,) that be had
received a communication ffoSa ''coWeaA
POnden," which Was gOiBg to ''sbO~ up the
aUPliciII Of the dslecisble trio Of the ssnipst
most beautifully, and would be read with In-
Ierest by oil seekers afler truIh," and which
would appear the peSt week. Next week
came, spd 90 old his correspondents COM
over The signatures OF "f. q
I'M" We suppose they went according
10 the old sdaee, "lhat two heads are better
Than ope, if one is sleeps head" Well,
we read i, very easetlllI, and what did we
6nd1 All Ihe wsY to IRis;=
T. 81 J. NJ. cOmmenCed By telling the
en.,:;s s.s::saed editor Of The Republican, that
there is great disposition on The part Of
The Loco press in Ohio, and particularly on
the part Of The editors of tbe Cadiz Sentinel
to mislead and mispiOr@ Ae PUBLIC wne, "
How did YOU sRd it Oula Are you con-
slant readers ef We eLOeo press in Ohio~
lfyop are, you certainly are the greatest
reuders in the States You mus, read Polh'
ical PspeTq moEe Than you do Coke, &ack
stope, sc. But you are not such great rea-
ders. You have received your information
from such sources as the Cadiz Republican,
which con SANDER mud abuse the democratic
press with as much facility as yourselves.
As to the Sentinel misleading the public mind
it is not true. We wished to show our rca~
ders that the hue and cry that the whig press
we're raising in regard TO the Constitutional
Senatorial appor'ionmcnt was not correct,
and we think we have fairly sustained that
position, T. g. J. M. to The contrary not.
wi.hsla anding.
| Our table was based upon the vote given
for Ford ard Weller in ls4s, which we con-
tend is far better than The vote given last
fall for Wood and Johnston, for this reason
In ls4s there we're only two candidates for
the office of Governor. Last fall there were
three. And because. in the language Of The
Ohio State Journal, the organ of the wbig
party in Ohio, after publishing the returns
for the election Of Governor adds --':sRotheT
result arrived at, and demonstrated BY these
returns is, that there were t.vensy eight thou
sand potes LESS cast for Governor this yeai
than there was for Ford and Weller in lS4s."
|if +. s. ]. M. have any doubts whether this
is correct, let them TAKE the trouble ot ex'
amining the weekly Journal Of November 5
1850, and they will see what we have stated
lis true.
Last falls vote will do very we'll for such
! men as T.. & ]. NJ. 10 .alk about and try 10
r make ou. the Constitutional Senatorial Ap'
portionment an awful thing, but it Won'
take. The honest ireemen of Harrison coun'
!, Ity and the State of Ohio are not TO be gull
led by such deception. The vote Of l64t
was the one that ,he Constitutional Senate
fial sppor,ionment was framed by, and
~as the only correc: one, and whyf becaus
there we're LESS yoIes given Tor GoverRo
last year than there were in lS45.
The Senatorial apporIionment is just ali
fair. from, this fact; that the democrats CO
: peye, have more than one Of a majority j
= the Senate, if that; because several OF tb
districts nre doubtful ones; namely; the lO'f
10Th and lslh, and even The second 10 no
certain.
I According TO II. g. J. Ms. table they Faak'
out every district on the Western Reserve
democratic, except one. Do they OF any otheI
wings believe that the Reserve is democrat
Iics No. Ask them the question. aGd they
will tell you that "Reserve is as strong
whig as ever.
Let US now look at the table Of 7. y j.
NJ, and the one Published by va. aud see
what difference there is between them.
We agree pretty we'll with his able until
We come TO the 4th district, He publishes
70 the world that there are only SOB whig
voters in Brown county, which is one thou'
sand less than were given for 4ohnlsst!on last
fall Ia that county. Look better a. the fg'
ures mex, time, Messrs, I. " I'M.
The 10Th districs they plaim as whig
> which we had sc, down us DE- nocFaie They
are welcome TO il.
The next difference is abQgt the 18th dis
Eic,. lie sets thai down as demacsa.ic.
} aay person foolish enough to believe ths
! lhs usHsI 1900 whig majority in "pl9 Mus
kiuguul, can be o.erbalanced BY the 7O'
democratic insjOrity in "liltle PeFryr
J TAen comes the 10Th district, which h
places as democratic. Delawsye 10 siron
! *hig county, aad often gives goo whig ma
= jori.y ifno, more, while Licking county
4 always wavering, except last fall.
!. . Then The 18th district, This they clair
as whig. while we Sc. i, down as democratic
They are Welcome 10 oil they can make OF
