Important from the West.


show that the fusion of the opponents of the
Nebraska swindle into one great -" REpUBL1-
CAN PARTY" is going on most successfully,
and will be so complete as to overthrow all OPP
position, and sweep those States, as the fires
of autumn sweep over their magnificent prai-
res. There will be no attempt to maintain
wing organization in one of those States and
the wings of Massachusetts, will have the proud
satisfaction of finding themselves standing in
opposition to this great movement for freedom
and identified with the Badgers, the Joneses,
the Stephenses, the Toombses, and other fire
eaters of the South, in sustaining their eifete
organization. But they, too, will be swept
away, with the rest of the rubbish, by the
spirit of Freedom. The party has been aptly
and appropriately called the party ofblunders,
but it never made greater political blunder,
than it did, when it listened to the advice of
the Boston hunkers, and refused to accept the
olive branch, so generously rendered to it, at
the late convention in this city. Three months
more time viii satisfy them of this fact.
The following is extracted from letter to
the Ne,o York Tribune, dated
Mount VERNON, Ohio, Aug. 10, 1854.
The Republicans of Ohio, have held their
State Convention, and nominated a splendid
ticket. Steps are being taken to open the fall
campaign vigorously. The State Central Com
mittee will shortly announce a long list of APP
pointments for mass meetings in various parts
of the State. 1t is understood that Thomas
Corwin, Thomas Ewing, Senators Chase and
Wade, Judge Spaulding, Col. d. K Cartier,
the Hon. Joseph Cable, Col. B. Z. Linter,
the Hons. Joseph Root, Giddings Wade,
Crowell, Campbell, Sapp, Stanton, Hunter,
Townshend, Iilden, Stone, Brink erhoff,
Mathews, John Woods, Judge Probosco,
Samuel Galloway, Hiram Grswold, John C.
Vaughan, John A. Bingham, Chas. Anderson,
VIM. Heinrich, Horace Dunbar, Gen. Ecllley,
Capt. Ford, ]. R. Vance, VIM. Dennison, J.
Medill, John C.. Tidball, Judge Cowen, NJ.
B. Walker of Dayton, Gen. Geiger, John +.
Beaver, A. Harlan, j. w. Andrews, Bush
mel White, and several German orators and
other eloquent champions of free principles,
will take the stump this fall. A number of
these men are Democrats" a dozen are Free
Sellers, and the remainder are Wings. You
will observe from this array of speaking talent
that there will be no child's play in the mat
ter-that the Nebraskals are bound to get a
tremendous drubbing.
The news from every part of the State is
most cheering. You must have often heard
Of the backbone counties running across the
State from the Pennsylvania to the Indiana
line, embracing the ridge counties between the
waters of the st. Lawrence and the Missis-
sippi. These are Mahoning, Columbiana,
Stark, Wayne, Holmes, Ashland, Richland,
Knox, Morrow, Crawford, Marion, Seneca,
Wyandot, Hancock, Hanlin, Auglaize, Allen,
Putnam, Mercer, and Van Vert. These
twenty consecutive counties are chiefly popu-
lated with Pennsylvanians and every one of
them has been Democratic for the last quarter
of a century. Their usual majority is about
$4,000. In this stronghold of the enemy the
Anti Nebraska feeling has taken its deepest
root. The immense maJorities of the Admin
istration in this " backbone region will
crumble to pieces this fall. The sham Demo-
cratic party will turn bottom side up i'll many
of them. Mahoning, Columbiana, Stark,
Richland, Knox, Morrow, Wyandot, Putnam
and Hardin ale reyolutionized, beyond a
doubt.
But the immense bolt from the Admins
tration ranks does by no means end there
The whole of the Western Reserve counties
are stirred to their centre. L have heard no
intelligent man from " Cheesedon,' set down
The Anti Nebraska majority of that section at
less than 20, 600, or about double its old Wing
majority. The northwest counties swarm
with Anti Nebraska Democrats. Many Of
them will be rescued from Locofocoism this
fall. must not forget to mention Tuscara-
wat Coshocton, Carroll, and Guernsey,
where tie Republican party are scoeping en-
erythtRg before them. Tuscawarus is good for
1000 Anti-Nebraska majority. Last year
and the year before it was Locofoeo. Co
shocton County will be redeemed from the
clutch of its services. The skies are all bright
in Ohio. I have forgotten to mention The
German mo7 ement, which will give us 10, 1000
Democratic votes, and redeem old Hamilton.
