It is gratifying to witness the spirited and ac
tive determination TO elect their ticket perya
ding the Democracy of Your State, since tn
Convention. The campaign is now fairly open
led,-the issue presented, whether the neeroe
shall be on perfect equality with white man
have read several opposition papers, since tn
Convention, but they were filled up with arti
cles on negroes,-negrOes first, negroes last, ne
groes all the time. The rights of the tchif
man, and State policy, seemed completely ig
nored. Such was the case also, am informed
by gentleman who was present, at your lat
! Republican State Convention. The speakers
from Giddings down to Warden, and from
| Warden to Nichols, could think Of nothin!
else, talk of nothing else, than the 'elarkey -
The right of the negro TO vote, to hold office
in fact, to enjoy all the privileges, political ans
social, now enjoyed by the white race, was the
burden OF their song. The contest will he be.
tween The negEoes and Abolitionsts on the one
side, and the Democracy on the other, strug-
gle between the races. The lines are drawn
and the issue distinctly made 81 know ne.
groes," said Judge Warden in his speech in Co.
lumbus, BLACK as the ace of spades, and that
is not as black as the heart of the man who in
vented this new Democratic doctrine, ,cho are
NINE IENILo Of the Whites" Truly he
was not only Uery complimentary to his auditors,
but also plainly, boldly and Enthusiastically fore
shadowed the course 10 be pursued by the oppo
sition during the cAnV lss. When so raw a re-
cruit as Judge w. in the Republican ranks, can
give utterance to such sentiment what NAV
not be expected from such veterans in Aboli-
tionism, as Cha's, Giddings Wade a. Co..
Now that the opposition have selected their po-
sitlon, it becomes the Democracy to meet them
on their own ground. Let the flag of the Union
be unturled IN opposition to the black flag flung
alott by the Republicans. Your Democratic
standard bearers are able and eloquent leaders;
your rights ahd privileges as white men; the
safety OF your Treasury; the future position of
OHIO as bright and glorious star in the constel-
latlon of the American Union, all demand an
energetic and untirinS effort on the part of your
democracy. You can and 10W triumph, if ev-
cry Democrat but does his duty, between this
and the second Tuesday of October.
Candidates for different positions under the
next House, are rapidly increasing. Six have
already been named for the Speakership; some
eight or nine for Clerk; two for Doorkeeper, and
three for Postmaster of the House. The posi-
tionS Of Speaker and Clerk are most important,
and it is generally believed that the North will
get one Of these and the South the other From
present indications, / ain of the opinion that
Orr, o. ). e., will be Speaker and either Allen,
of Ill, or Robinson, of Ind, Clerk. One thing
is certain that better men for the positions than
have named, it will be difficult matter to
find
1t is now almost certain that two new States
will seek admission into the Union at the next
session OF Congress, Kansas and Minnesota
and 1T is also the general impression, among
Southern as well as Northern men, that they
will both be admitted AS FREE States; not thro'
the efforts of the Black Republican party, but
owing to the climate, emigration, and the inter-
ests of the people themselves. We all renem-
Der the numerous predictions made during the
last Presidential campaign, on the stump and
through the press by the Republican leaders,
that il Buchanan should be elected President
it the Kansas Nebraska bill should be carried
out-ii, in short, the Federal Government be
not be not placed in the hands Of the Republi-
con party, Stare,y tooUtR be .fTce1 i1to not only
Kansas but M of our western territories; they
assured the people of the North, that the Dem
Ocratlc party was bound to the extension of sla-
very. Your readers all, doubtless, heard or
read slmlIarprophecies from the opposition
And yet, scarcely year passed and we hear
that two or three Of our territories ares waiting
for admission into the Union as free States-
This proves that the Kansas Nebraska bill, Gfi
it Is indeed more favorable to the institutions Of
one section of the country chan the other, as is
instead Of extending slavery has ben
stited the North; and also, that the croakinys
1t the opposition in 1851, are no more to be
hecdcd orrcled upon thon the croakings of the
opposition in the days of Jackson

gentlemen have been urged for the office OIL
Commissioner of Patents: Mr.. Edmund Burke,
Of N. H.; Ex-senator James, OF II. l.; Judge !
md Col, George w. Hughes of Md. 1t is ex- |
Dected that the appointment will be made in

expressed himself in favor of appointing a law

There is a rlunor current on the streets to-
lay, that at the Cabinet meeting, on Wednes-
lay, it was decided to change several of the |
heads of Bureaus Whether there is any
ruth as regards the decision the Cabinet arrl-
'ed at, do not know; but that the matter was
he subject of discussion at the meeting, | feel
confident. Of couse, the rumor has set both
,he friends of the fins" and the friends of the
'olts'' in commotion. Your State has no mix
n the matter.
Quite number Of Clerks in the different de-
oartmcnts have been "rotated" and their places
illed by new men, generally from the States
rom which those who were removed, were APP
pointed. This rotation is about the only
hing we have in the city now, to create any ex-
'itement and wonder There are still few
patriots from the States here, who are patti
,ntiy waiting for chance. B.
