In relation to the election in Ohio, the New
York Evening Post remarks:
1T is apparent, from the returns, that the
distinctive Free-Soilers have exhibited degree
of strength not previously expected. Their vote
will be considerably larger than they have
polled at any other election since ls4S, and
their ranks have been swelled by accessons
from both of the larger parties.
In Geauga county-which voted in l848,
Cass 92l, Taylor 872 Van Buren, l,333-the
Free-Soilers have elected their county ticket
over coalition of Wings and Democrats
In the Cleveland Congressional district,
Edward Wade, the Free Soil candidate, has
more than thirteen hundred majority over his
highest competitor. In the Ashtabula district,
Joshua R. Giddings has about five hundred ma
jority"
