MR. BUCHANAN I'm OHIO.
The subjoined article, taken from the Noun
Vernon Democrat, will go TO show that Mr.. BUcH
ASAs is second to no one in that great State
we commend the evidence to the consideration
of all who seek the strongest man:
From ,he Mount Vernon iO) Democratic Revie "
The Presidency-voic or Ohio.
If the Democratic masses and the Democrat
ic press of Ohio we're ever unanimous upon one
thing it is the subject Of the Presidency. We
are in the weekly receipt of nearly all the Dem.
ocratic papers in the State, and with the excep-
ton Of two or three, which are the recipients, OF
patronage from the present Administration, all
favor the nomination Of Mr.. Buchanan, by the
National Convention, which assemblies at Gin
cinnati on the I'd day Of June. Ifthe question
was put to vote of the people Of Ohio, we feel
perfectly warranted in saying that l9 out of
every 20 votes in the Democratic ranks, would
declare their preference for Mr.. Buchanan.
An Ohio correspondent of the Pittsburg Dai-
ly Post writes: "We sayto you, be of good cheer
and pass it around, the voice of Ohio is with
you; and Mr.. Buchanan will in Convention, re-
ceive the majority, if not the united vote of the
Ohio delegation. in making this declaration,
we wish not to be understood as speaking dis
paragingly of President Pierce or Mr.. Douglas,
who have in Ohio many friends and admirers;
but wish to only say, that Mr. Buchanan is
the decided fav0rite OF our State, and if the
question of preference was submitted to the di-
rect vote ofthe people, he would receive at least
two thirds Of all their votes"
We have already given extracts from several
Democratic papers in this State, to show what
the public sentiment is on the subject Of the
Presidency. We now add q few more to the
list.
The McConnellsville Enquirer, the able and
influential organ of the Democracy Of Morgan
county, says: "In this locality, if poll could
be had of the Democratic party we doubt not
that Mr.. Buchanan would receive at least nine
teen out of twenty of all the votes as choice
OF the Democracy for the next Presidency. In
fact we have not heard as yet q single individual
express his preference who was not solcitous
he should be the nominee"
The Guernsey Je6ersonian, in noticing the
fact that Governor Wise, of Virginia, had
written letter, expressing himself as favora-
BILE to the nomination of Mr.. Buchanan, adds: /:
$50 far as we have been able to learn the
preference of the Democracy of Guernsey
county, James Buchanan is their first choice,
but they are not going to fly off the handle, if
some other candidate should be selected as our
standard bearer"
The Stark County Democrat says: "It seems
to be conceded that the Democratic sentiment
throughout this region looks upon James
Buchanan as the most suitable man to be
placed in nomination by the Cincinnati Con.
vention. He is the undoubted preference Of
the Democracy Of Stark county at this time,
and, this too, without making any invidious
distinction towards the other distinguished
Democratic names in connection with the
Presidency"
The Ashland Union, one of the ablest papers
in the State, declares its preference for Mr..
Buchanan, over all the other candidates in the
field. The editor truly says, that no one would
be SO acceptable to the Democracy of this State,
and indeed, of the whole Union, as that distin-
guished statesman, and that he is the choice of
four ffths ofthe Democracy Of Ashland county.
The editor concludes thus: ave shall give the
nominee of the Convention, whoever he may be,
our cordial support We 60 for both principles
and men. But our first choice is for James
Buchanan, the man, the people and not the pol.
iticians desire to see elevated to the nextPres-
idency
The SPIRIT Of Democracy, the ablest organ
of the Monroe Democracy, of the 3Oth ult.,
strikes in for Buchanan thus: at is useless for
papers to be attempting to manufacture public
opinion in this State, as we believe, and in this
part of the State as we know, for any other man
than Buchanan. We confidently believe that
three fourths of the Democrats of fthis State, who
have choice at all, are in favor of Buchanan,
and the delegates to the Cincinnati Convention
cannot fail TO see it, unless they wilfully close
their eyes,"
The Hooking Sentinel, of the lst instant, in
an article on the Presidency, says
James Buchanan, of Pennsylvania, we be-
lieve to be the man for the present emergency.
He is sound national man, second to none in
point of talenr. He has long been in public SER
vice and understands well the principles of our
governmental policy. He is far from being an
ultraist and in his hands we doubt not the gov
ernment would be wisely and successfully con-
Quoted.
The Democracy can rally around him with
an enthusiasm which will be a sure precursor
Of victory. There can be no doubt Of his tri-
umphant election, if nominated
