The Effect at washington.

A Washington dispatch of the llth thus
states how the election returns from Penn
sylvania Ohio and Indiana affected the
Democrats and Bell men:
"The great results which must flow from
the recent successes of the Republicans in
Pennsylvania Ohio and Indiana are the ex-
citing topic of remark here. The Bell and
Everett men see nothing on which to hang
a hope. The Douglas faction of the Dem
ocracy are completely paralyzod, and the
Breckinridge men are in despair. Many Of
them concede Lncoln's election as certain,
and think it hardly worth while to make a
further effort"
Fremont journal. [volume] (Fremont, Sandusky County [Ohio]) 1853-1866, 1860-10-19
Agreed!

Mr.. Leverett Saltonstall, Chairman of
the Bell Everett Massachusetts State Com
mittee, wrote officially on the 5th inst, to
his brethren in Philadelphia as follows:
"We venture to assure that the defeat of
Foster would be very prejudical to our
chances of carrying Massachusetts in No
vember, and would, from our point of view,
be extremely detrimental to our prospects
in New York and New Jersey"
We so seldom have the pleasure of
agreeing with L. S. that we cannot resist
the impulse to say that he could hardly
have expressed our convictions Alore exactly
than the above. We consider "the defeat
of Foster" "very prejudicial TO" the Bell
Everett 'chances of carrying Massachusetts,
in November much so as bullet
through the heart of dead dog would be
to the ''chances" of his running swiftly and
barking vivaciously the next day. And that
said defeat as "extremely detrimental to-
the Bcll-Everett prospects in. New York
and New Jersey" is another patent fact
The "prospects" week ago were that Flu
sion would not be beaten more than Fifty
Thousand in this State; now, the "chances
are that the Lincoln majority may run up
to the neighborhood of One Hundred Thou
sand. Leverett talks like book.-New

Once More to the Breach! /!

Republicans Of Sandus6y County
You have come out of the State canvass
with honor. True, you have been beaten
in the county, but the fight you made was
gallant one and reflects great credit on
you. The democratic party in this county
has been the successful one with one or
two exceptions) for all time past. With
official patronage at their command, and
the prestige of former success to stimulate
their tagging hopes, they have managed to
deceive the honest, laboring portion of
voters into the belief that they are the true
friends of the working man. No other
hope have they had on which they thought
to succeed; and how we'll they have sue
ceeded you know. With an increased vote
in the county of 654 over last year, their
majority is not so large as last year by 80
votes. Though from an error in some Of
our tickets the vote shows them as having
an increase of 8.)
1t is well known to the Republicans
throughout the county that many democrats
who were desirous of throwing off the
shackles which bound them to sham democ-
racy, were prevented from doing so by the
surveillance which was exercised BY their
party leaders over the honest voters, and
many voted the democratic ticket only
through fear of personal violence or pecu-
MARY loss. Now when party becomes so
corrupt as to resort to such means to retain
its voters, it is high time that it should be
come extinct.
With the result of the 9th Of October
so plainly presented to you, will you let
any obstacle deter you from using the most
earnest efforts for the redemption of the
county in the great struggle of the 9th Of
November! Ohio has given the Republi
can candidates about $4,000 majority
Pennsylvania has given Republican ma
jority of $4,000, and Indiana has gone up
wards Of $4,000 for the Republicans
These majorities are in the aggregate So,
900 greater than was anticipated by the
mo It sanguine Republican. The sham dem.
ocracy arc completely dumb-founded over
the intelligence, yet they are determined to
persevere in their bold game of deception
for a few weeks longer.
Republicans, let not your zeal abate a
particle because of this great victory. Let
it rather stimulate you to greater excrtons.
Be more vigilant, for the more important
struggle is yet to come. You have sus.
tanned your State Administration nobly.-
Now for one more charge, and you will gain
National triumph; you can obtain such
avictory as shall thoroughly renovote the
National Administration in all its depart
ments. Assist in placing LINCOLN and HAM'
LIN at the head of the government and
then, and then only, may you rest from
your labors. Republicans of Sandusky
county you may reduce the boasted major
ity of the sham democracy in this county
if you will. Will you do itG

Noble Conduct of the IscpubIIcans.

Under this heading. the Peoples Press,
a Douglas paper, of Milwaukee, pays a de-
served tribute to the Republicans of that
city in the following:
"The reception of Senator Seward in
this city had for weeks been looked forward
to with the greatest interest, and no effort
had been spared to make it one Of the lar
gest and most imposing affairs of the kind
which have ever taken place in the State,
and we have no doubt it would have been
all that was anticipated, had it not been
foregone in Difference TO a humane senti-
ment towards those who have been 50 deep
ly stricken by the great calamity which has
fallen heavily upon our city. But the par
tisans of the distinguished Senator have
won greater triumph by their forbearance
than they could have achieved by the most
successful public demonstration. What
makes this conduct most praiseworlhy is
the fact that the immediate sufferers by
the sinking of the ll.fated Lady EIginwere
almost exclusively of their political oppon-
ents

WHAT IT CosTs TO BE LINCOLN MAN
Down SouTH.-A man in Vicksburg, Miss,
expressed himself in favor of Mr.. Lincoln.
What happened to him is thus narrated by
the Vicksburg Sun:
"When last heard Of the Lincolnite
who gave his opinions an airing so freely in
our city on Monday, and who for so doing,
was set adrift on the Mississippi river, after
being we'll tarred, was about twenty miles
from here, slowly progressing toward New
Orleans, in mid-river. A stout cord and a
strong limb is the only fit punishment for
such iucendiaries of evil"

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazette, under date Of the 10th
inst, has the following in regard to the
state Of affairs at the Federal City, since
the October election:
"The Little Giant is now universally re-
garded as played out, and his preten-
sions are absolutely derided BY those who
once were wont to pay him respect. Thou
sands who swore by him in the heyday Of
his prosperity, since recent Northern elect
ions have given him the cold shoulder, and
gone over, body and breeches, to Breckin-
ridge. 81

Well, let us tell you bic of story
We will call no names. The other day, an
old Democrat, who has always stuck to his
party, through good report and evil report,
said:
"Pve always been Democrat, and am
about tired of it. l don't believe the dem
ocraic party stands where it da ten years
ago, and I'm going to vote for Old Abe"

may be great deal less."-Ironton Reg.

Keen the Field.

The Presidential victory is substantially
won, but we must not lay down our armor,
or quit the field, until the 9th of November.
Tho enemy is paralyzed and powerless, but
this will avail us little, unless we keep
wide awake, and make good use of our ad-
vantage. Let us be sure that all our for
ces are in good trim for the final charge,
which is all that remains to render our tri-
umph complete. Inaction or Indifference
now, giving our adversaries an opportunity
to rally, and to surprise us offguard, is the
only possible danger. Such fatal negli-
gence will of course be avoided. 1t mat
ters not that we have gained everything,
thus far, and have the enemy PROSTATE at
our feet, if we fail to strike the decisive
blow.
Republicans of Ohio, use all diligence
during the three weeks that remain. We
must give to LINCOLN and HAMLIN double
our October majority. Remember that, and
work earnestly until it is DONE Gin. Gaz.

Indiana.

There are 100 counties in Indiana, of
which 76 have been heard from, giving
Gen. Lane (Repub.) for Governor l4,224.
His gain on the last vote for Governor
(ls56) is 1882. AS Gov. Willard's ma
jority in the State was 5,s72, Lane is elect
ed by IL ,48O if the 20 counties show no
gain on the last Governor-vote. But they
have gained, of course, so that Gen. Lanes
majority must be very near $1,000, and may
exceed that number.

"CARRYINe THE WAR INTO AFRICA. ."-Gov.
Ford leaves here this week on stumping
tour in Virginia. We have so entirely
whipped out, smashed up, demolished and
cleaned out the Democracy in this region,
that the Gov. says he has no one to fight
with here, and consequently has to go an
the hunt of foes. Virginia is looming up
as Republican State, and by 1864 she will
be placed on the Republican roll.-Mans-

amounting in the aggregate, on the vote

Douglas the Deceiver.

If there was any one thing needed to
stamp Stephen A. Douglas rs base deceiUer
and false hearted man towards freedom and
the freemen of Kansas, the testimony has
now been furnished and is published to the
country. 1t is the blackest record that has
yet been shown against this vain, aspiring
demagogue. Deception has been his prn-
ciPal staple of electioneering argument
ever since he placed his covetous eyes and
heart upon the Presidential chair of this
republic of ours. Once, in the estimation of
the Union, Douglas stood forth as the only
man who could bring peace to the country,
and allow settlers in the Territories that
freedom which the Constitution guarantees
to them. Now, however, tho mask has
been stripped of, and the deformity of the
man is held up that the whole Union may
see his hideousness.
The testimony we speak Of is furnished
by the Democratic Association of Kansas,
and is by them made public. Every wit
ness put upon the stand is an orthodox
member of the Democratic faith.
This testimony will be published in full
in the next issue of the JOURNAL.
