Only FIVE days more and tho Presidential
struggle will be over. This is n short watch,
and Republicans can well afford to keep at
their posts and "wde-awake." II is no time
for sleeping or inactivity. A victory is never
entirely won, until the last shot is fired, Over
confidence has robbed many conqueror of
his laurels already gained, rs well as those
within grasp. Ohio is safe for Lincoln,
but unless the II publican vote is largely in
creased in November, she will fall behind
Pennsylvania and New York This should
not be. Ohio should manLain herself in the
f.olt ranks Of the Republican States, as she
has dcne in the darker hours of our good
cause. To this end every Republican in
Wood county should resolve TO add to th,
majority obtained a.ihe recent Safe election
The current is with usl The prestige Of vic
tory is with usl The assurance of still NOR,
glorious triumph is with us! And who will
refuse to work under these cheering indca.
tons? No time should be lost in re ad Justine
and perfecting our organizations throughout
the county, preparatory to the final battle
Every committee and every Republican sho d
be at work. In word, if every Republica an
does his whole duty our majority in the coun
ty will be increased at least SO votes, snt
Ohio will go for Lincoln and Iamln by ~
900 majority. Let's do it.

"Le low, keep still, and make rush at
the pollsl" is the word passed from the head
quarters to the captains of the locofoco hosts
in this county. The idea is tc play possum;
or, in other words, put Republicans off their
guard by pretending to give up the contest.
II we mistake not the mettle of the Wood
county Republicans, they will find themselves
sadly mistaken. Let every friend of free la
Dor do his duty on Tuesday next, and all will
feel proud of their days work.

The Douglas Club of College Point,
Long Island, composed mainly of adopted citi
zens, has formally dissolved, and gives the
following sensible reasons:
Resolved, That we consider John Bell the repre-.
sentative Of the proscriptive American party whose
only positive principle Is hatred and prejudice against
foreigners and thatwe consider Ohm @ recknridge
the representative Of the centrazing slave party,
whose principles are repugnant to freedom and hu.
manity.
2d.--That pure Douglas Electoral .ickst is in
the field in this State.
3d,--That this Club Is dissolved and the members
freed from the obligations they entered into when
joining tho club.
So it goes everywhere, except where adopt
ed citizens allow themselves to be Influenced
and controlled by unprincipled men.

With the triumph of the Republicans the
Breckinriige and Lane party has fulfilled it's
missiou--d is dead, 1t can rally nobody
against that which it has been the cause OF
producing - Enquirer.
Precisely SO, and that is good reason
why the friends of Douglas. as they now
know that he cannot be elected, should vote
for lincoln and Hamlin. We believe this
will be done by thous ands and ter Of thous-
ands of earnest Douglas democrats, from the
motive which the Enquirer suggests.

Fusion and primCipIc.

The Douglas organs of Ohio are begging
the know nothngs to vote for the "lttle suck
er." Ibis, they say, can be done acithom any
sacrifice ofprinciplo Douglasism and know
nothingism, therefore, must be identical in
point of principle, as they certainly are in
object. The troth is, principle is lost sight
of by the leaders Of both those factions, for no
other purpose than to defeat Lincoln. No
matter how odious may have been know moth
ngism or any other ism, in former times, just
SO all the elements of opposition can be
brought to bear against the Republican can
didates, they are enreated to enter the fold
of Douglassm. What a contrast with the
once proud old democratic party, which stood
upon the broad basis of the "grea test good 10
the greatest number" and "that all men are
entitled to life, liberty, and the pursuit OF
happiness"

Presidential EicriiOn--A WORD 90
JudgeS

Toe returns Of the Presidential election are
not opened and canvassed by the Clerks OF
the Courts of Common Pleas, as is the case
with the returns of,he October election, The
poll books are returned directly to the Shoria
OF the county, who carries them to Columbus,
and deposits them with the Secretary OF S,ate.
Such being the fact it is important hat Judge,
of the election in tho several wards end
townships in the various counties of Ohio,
take down the official count, and send it out,
side of the poll book, to the county seat by
the Judge of the election who returns the pol
book of the same. This oughtnot TO be neg

January last, the following paragraph:sai sas

sion. He says the Territories are not sovereign,
and that we have so acknowledged. Ina tech
,nicalsensei did acknowledge that no territory
was, sovereign; but why are we beiogged, :, in q
discussion, by mere phrase? Senators. seem to
imagine it a sort OF inevitable necessity that
there should be sovereignty somewhere. DO
NOT BELIEVE THERE IS ANY SOVEREIGNTY INA
TERnIroRY; and do not see why that word is
interpolated into. our discussion, 1t is not
found in the Constitution Of The United SdteS
and doubt whether 1t can be found in the
Constitution Of any State. 1t is A MERE
GHOST brought in to confuse subject which
might otherwise be plain enough, / have heard
this phrase popular sovereignty employed q
did not invent it, in contravention to he claim
of congressional sovereignty. One party as
serted that Congress had sovereign power, the
other responded that people enjoyed whatever
sovereignty the case would allow.
