mocracy were struggling for the power Of the
State, after succession Of defeats, we never
knew arichsr promise of victory than at the
present moment. We have participated in all
the hard fought contests for the last quarter ofa
century, and never found the Democracy more
determined to merit victory, by their exertions,
than at this moment.
Save in the counties Of Ashland aud Sandus.
Ky we are united party, and in the ioimer the
division is but confined to the nomination Of
Senator'S few persons, preferring locality to
Democracy, are taking the proper course to en-
sure the election OF Republican Senator in
Democratic district, while in the other county,
two rival factions, each struggling for the power
of the county and mastery over the other, have,
for months, been sowing the seeds of discord,
from which the enemy expect to reap an abun
CANT harvest. The signs are, that this latter
division will be healed before the election, and
we have hopes that the sober second thought"
which Is always right, will show the dsaffec.

porary i'll they have than to Ay to the greater
one of securing triumph for the enemy.
These counties being the exception which
goes but to make up the general rule, the Ohio
Democracy is a harmonious one. They scout
President making until after the Octaber elec-
tion and are now in the field and eager for the
fight.

dread the ides of October, as Cesar had cause
to dread the ides of March. They have no
confidence in their leaders-the old Whig por-
ton of the enemy holding the Giddngs in de-
testation, while the Giddings faction have no
confidence in the Old Wings, whose organiza-
tion they broke up--whose cherished leaders
they de ieated, and whom they compelled to play
second fiddle to them. The old Democrats who
in pet went off to the Republicans, and aided
Giddings in the formation OF his new party,
are secuted as Locofocos in disguise--as Judas
in treachery, and are as unfit to lead as they
are unsafe to be trusted, and indeed throughout
the organization, composed as it is OF factions
and the fag end Of factions there is none will
ing to trust the other. The conduct Of these
candidates has placed their papers on the de-
tensive--and the evidences of the general break
ing up OF hard winter were never more ap-
parent during spring, than those which fore
tell the breaking up of the so-called Republican
party--the topling and falling of that ill-built
editce, and even now, many Of the wise ones
are preparing to stand from sunder, lest they
be crushed in the fall.
Thus stands the campaign II this time. Mr..
Dennison is on the stump, acting the Old Wing
in the south eastern river counties, declining to
interfere with slavery and willing to see the Fu-
gitiye Slave Law enforced, while in other local
tiles, says that $50 help him God" he will, If
elected use the bavonet to prevent its execu-
ton in Ohio. His friends are disguised with
his folly and subservency--with his blowing
hot and blowing cold-with beiug pig at one
point and the puppy at another. Judge Ranney
is addressing crowds wherever he goes, adyo-
eating the same doctrices, the same views in one
section that he does in another, and everywhere
it is the common saying, "Ranney's speech is
the best we ever heard, and his supporters are
bold and confident Of success, and intend in the
campaign not only to gain the victory, but, by
their exertions, to deserve it.
Again VIC say the Democracy have every
thing to encourage and nothing to danpen their
spirits. They are moving IN solid column to-
wards the citidel of the enemy, and on the sec
ond Tuesday Of October, will storm and take
and force it to surrender at discretion National
