The last Logan County (0.) Gazette,
formerly Old line Wing, brings us
the following cheering news from
that county. 1t says: -.
There are sixty Old-line Wings in
Lake township, and five hundred in
the county, who repudiate Fremont.
In another article it remarks: 4

been unusually large and enthusiastic.

The Garfield kO.) Sentinel. pub
lished in Mahoning County has the
following paragraph, showing how
public opinion is setting in there:
."CoMlNG BAcK.--Many Democrats
who have been gulled, for two years
past, into voting the Fusion ticket.
Since the nomination Of Buchanan
and Breckenridge. announce their de-
termination to come back into the old
line, and devote their energies once
more for the success of Democratic
principles" ] /. -
In another article it states that "a
number Of Old-line Wings in Mahom-
ing County have already announced
their intention to support the Demo.
cratic nominee for the Presidency.
They are unwilling to bind themselves
to the ear of mongrel Abolitionism;
nor do they admit the claims Of Ere
mont to their sufferages, or admire
his experience as a statesman. Sen
sible men seldom admire ambitious
renegades." HI /. ~.
The Boston Courier. the ablest Old.
line Wing paper lin New England,
and which, during his lifetime, was
the confidential home organ of Daniel
Webster, although it does not sup
port Mr.. Buchanap, ridic,iles the idea

elected. NJ: r I'll ..H
Even the National Era, the central
organ of the Black Republicans in
Washington City, despairs of success.
After saying that Buchanan will car
ry the entire South, the Black Repub-
lican Era candidly admits:
+ AS for carrying California tor the
Republican candidate, the superstition
is wild. That Stateis slavery ridden.
Both the Wing and Democratic par
ties there have always been distin-
guished by their subserviency to sla-
very. We might ias we'll hope for
Missouri. In Pennsylvania, as against
Fremont, Buchanan would in all'pro-
liability command the entire Demo
cratic vote. and large portion of the
old conservative Wing vote. Now,
| with his one hundred and twenty votes
lie would need only Pennsylvania
and California. The last two would
raise his vote to one hundred and
fifty. one more than enough 10 elect. -
