There are in Ohio 10000 colored persons.
These would probably bring in the sham
bles of the South an average of 1000
each, amounting to the enormous sum of
$20,ooo,oo0. And this prize is to be
held out to be scrambled for, and through
its unutterable atrocity, either serve the
Democratic party in Ohio, or if that can
not be done, to secure the leaders in the

1t is thought among the outsiders that
the Buchanan men will succeed in the eau
Gus, and compel agreement to set of res
olutions fully endorsing the Administra-
tion. 1t is said that the leaders no longer
hope carry Ohio, and are therefore pre-

ers in order to secure whatever of Feder-
al offices may be deigned them. The
Statesman is evidently alarmed. tt

Of still humbugging the people, carry the
party with it, and it therefore committed
itself apparently beyond retraction to the
fortunes of Douglas, and is taken all aback
by the course of its friends in the House
Hence it is manufacturing outside opinion
to bear upon the members. Inits yester-
days edition it has extracts. of letters from
many ofthe counties, from a few of which
