GI enI Democratic Triumph at the
Capital OF Ohio.


Capital of Ohio.
Our city election On Monday was triumph
for the country Tot TO he overlooked. For the
first time in the history of parties in the city
Of Columbus, have we elected a Democratic
Magor! Wray Thomas had one of the hard
est candidates TO beat that could have been
started and his triumph there fore is the more
thorough and complete,
Columbus may now he set down as a certain
Democratic city. o. oil the city officers the Re-
pHblicsns have but three left, and these they
saved by very mesgre majorities.
Some Off uar candidates got rouSiny inainfi,irs

It's a fair expression ofour people, that they
do not want ,0a,--nor do they want a disunion

evidence that they desire such an adjustment OF
our difficulties as will lead to final reunion on
the basis OF right-of justice, and n proper ua

We 10 not desire 10 show any unnecessary
eyide nee OF glori6cation over the evidences Of
returning reason and patriotism as shown in
our elections Of Monday last We look upon
the numerous and favorable results as more the
evidences oi sound Judgment Of the people, than
the ordinary party triumphs we record. They
show that the lovers OF our whole country are
last nnitng in solid array against sectionalism.
This is the true issue and all concerned in
producing so good result should have the need
of praise. Let the voice Of Ohio 20 up hereaf-

Coshocton Town and Township, more than
double the Democratic majority OF last iall.
Canton, all Democratic!

All the above are victories that tell their own
tale; as they are IN fact resolutions in public
sentiment, and as revolutions seldom go back

and general rout by next October.
Important Political Revolution I'M
81. Louis.
We know of no political revolution in city
election OF more pregnant import than that O
st. Louis on Monday last. From 5000 nomi
nal Republican, st. Louis now presents de.
ieated Republican party Of over 2,0O0l
st. Louis was important to the Republican
Eartyr from the fast Of its being the only city
in slave State, where real abolition Republ
eanism had any material existence. Large cal
culations have been made by the aboitionist
that St. Louis they would make permanen
location, and sort Of depot from which to op
crate, not only on the State of Missouri, but OF
the country further South.
The result OF the election on Monday ha
completely check mated that idea for the pres
ent and all time to come, because once beater
they cannot recover the lost ground. 1t is i'm
portant in many other respects just at this tn
and will put damper on number o. plojeca
on foot for future purposes. -. ..
