Members OF Congress are rapidly coming in,
and by the middle Of next week, doubtless,
nearly all will have arrived. Many OF the Re-
publican members are now in New York City,
whittier, it is said, they have gone to arrange a
programme for the sessions work, as well as
adopt some plan for the Presidential campaign.
Notwithstanding Greeley and his Tribune are
known to be hostile to Stewards nomination
and in favor of some man aft the Bates and Boil
school-or in other words, some one who has a
conservative reputation,--it is claimed that
majority OF the Republican members are'in ia
vor of Seward, and that he will most certainly
be nominated. The Albany Evening Journal
edited by Thurlow Weed, and the New York
Courier &. Enquirer edited by james Watson
Webb-the two most prominent and influential
Republican papers in the State Of New York
have taken strong ground for Stewards nom-
nation. They claim that he is the only Repu'-
lican who can certainly carry New York, and
that as that State is necessary to success, "he
must be he nominee" In addition to this rea-
son, Webb urges his nomination hacause Sc
ward is so disliked by the South: He says:
"Who might have been the candidate of the
Republican party for the Presidency in 1860,
no prudent man could pretend to predict six
months ago. But not so ao,U;"-that the Sou
thern leaders have been Of late abusing and de-
nouncing Seward, and that 'this settles the ques-
ton. Thus threatened and bullied, men who
never preferred Seward to other well known
and long tried Republicans for the Presidency,
have now but one fixed and unalterable deter
mnation," and that is to Select to the Presi-
dency William H. Seward" The edict has
gone forth. The Republican High Priests, in
New York City assembled, have declared that
William H. Seward must be the candidate, and
his irrepressible conflict" doctrine--the first
gun of which was fired at Harper's Ferry--the
platform OF the Republican party in 1867
Well, so be It. II the Republicans are satisfied
with the arrangements, the Democrats certain
" ought to be. 1t does not matter who may
Democrats intend to nominate not only a can
didate, but the nert Preadeat,--for just as GER
tain as he lives to see the 4th Of March, 1861,
will the nominee Of the Charleston Convention
be inaugurated President. Our prospects are
brighter and brighter every day--all
intestine quarrels will be cast aside--and our
nominee receive the united and energetic sup
port Of the Democratic masses in every State
and section OF the Union 81 B..
Even Ohio, is not regarded hereabouts as GER
tain for the Republican nominee. The fact that
Judge Ranney received at your late election the
largest vote eUer cost in The State for Democratic
candidate promises we'll for the future. With
Seward for the Republican candidate, we shall
find the national men of your State, as well as
elsewhere throughout the North, regardless of
former differences uniting in support of the on
y party (which carries the flag and keeps step
to the music of the Union" and voting for the
Democratic nominee All that is required to
carry Ohio is united and energetic action on the
part Of our friends. A change in our favor OF
only eiqht or nine votes in each township and eler-
ton precinct win give us the State. BY athcr- |
Dugh and complete organization such change
can easily be effected. Is there an election dis
trct in the State where the Democrats would
refuse to labor to bring about such result!-
| think not "Pass the word along the line"
then, that all that is necessary to make Ohio
Democratic in 1860, is a thorough, active, work
ing organization, the formation Of Democratic
clubs s,-(not clubs to favor the aspirations off
this or that man, but Democratic Clubs, every
member Of which will pledge himself and his
labors in behalf Of the Democratic nominee)-
and the dissemination Of Democratic documents
lin every township and school district in the
State.
The President is busily engaged upon his
message, and will have it completed b" Tuesday
next, when it will be placed in the hand of the
Printer. As some time will elapse, doubtless,
after the meeting of Congress, before au organ
ization of the House will be effected, owing to
the fact that neither one Of the parties have
n.ajoitg, there is no telling at what time it Will
be sent into Congress.
Next Friday is the day appointed for Browns
execution. Rumors that rescue will be at
tempted by his friends, are yet numerous in
our midst, though no one has any idea that such
an attempt would meet with any success. lfI
any should be fool hardy enough to make the
attempt they will meet witha warm reception,
as there are now qu;ts number OF Virginia
troops encamped nenr Charlestown, where they
will remain until after the execution.
The sympathisers Of the traitor are making
arrangements to have Friday next observed
throughout the North as a day of mourning
Circulars have been sent in every direction
through the free States, calling upon the citi'
zens to exhibit their dsapprobation BY tolling
bells, exhibiting flags at half-mast, firing min
ute guns, and bedecking with Grape public build
ings. 1t remains to be seen whether any num-
ber Of American citizens will openly approve
the Harper's Ferry conspiracy by complying
with the request of tho "Circular."
