We are pleased to learn from the Cincia-
aati Gsssits that the great majority Of the
people OF Hamilton county are Aati.Ne-
hssskx Men, and that the fscofoeo platform
Of a. Aie Ohio 9Th Of January Conssasion
willchokc every candidate who attempts to
swSaasw Ii. We hays not the sliyhssstap-I
prehension that de gosd people Of Ohio
will recede from the noble stand which they
took in the election Of Chase, bst We are
especially pleased 10 know that there are
the strsasest hopes Of svea Hsnihon cour-
y. That county, - our readers are aware.
il the one in which Cincinnati - situated.
ltAss long been the stronghold Of Ohio Ls-
sstocoisn. By sgfsss fraud customary with
The Leoefoco Leaders Of that State, Cincin-
nasi has frequently been DISTINGUISHED and
swanpsd BY the oyerPewering vote Of the
county. Il is pleasant to think that the
chances for repeating such fraud a. that
Of the general ticket system are becoming
vsfy few. The intrinsic importance of
this fact as it relates to the prosperity Of .
great State, would be sufficient to claim the
congratulations Of gil good republicans; but
isAas far wider significance There are
thousands Of German voters in Hamilton
county who have heretofore. for the most
part, voted with the Locofoco party. There,
= in other parts Of the country. they have
essa TOO often delpdsd By the word $ Dsmoc-
raey."-but when they see % plainly ~
they d now. that the prevailing and perna-
nsat password .ish thsse party leaders pre-
tsadiagt to be Democratic, u Slavery" they
caa no longer BE- deceived BY lying soPh,s'
uiss o. hypocritic ialsehoods.
In such state Of affairs, it is natural if
net necessary thst the particular organs OF
the Administration should be actively en-
gaesd in @seading out of the party better
papers thaa themselves. and papers which
have had honesty and independence enough
to act according to their convictions, and to
sreatwith scorn any attempts at stacking
their freedom Of speech. We notice that
this 10 the game which is now being indus.
triously played BY the Cincinnati Esqairrr
and host Of other pro-slayery organs equal
~ unscrupulous but of far less ability. so
