" For the Democratic Press.
The State Of the Canvass.

Mr. EpIToR-Never an the long
series Of arduous and sometimes
contests in which they
have engaged, did the gallant De-
of Ohio exhibit more Wig
or and determination than in this
Canvass. Go wherever you may in
the State, youfnd the democratic
masses inspired with confidence
and hope, and resolutely bent
upon reScuing the reins ofthe Com
monwealth from the violent hands
into which it has fallen. The'great
importance of the struggle in a ma,
tional point of view, and the bear
yg 1T will have upon our local
prosperity, by determining wheth-
er the liberties of the people of the
great empire State of the West are
secure fromthe usurper and despot,
force themselves upon the grave
consideration of all within its lin
its. Then,7 again, the Negro, Is
substantially involved in the con
test, and the people are called upon.
to put q stop to those Abolition
entertainments which have, for
their ultimate erd the establish
ment of Negro Equality withinour
borders. zoi t. .,..r grGi
Remembering all these things,
and considering that q great dtri.
umph is now within our reach, it
behooyes tho Democracy to con
tinue and increase those patriotic
eXertions which will insure victory
to our glorious cause. The Dem
ocratS of Ohio may proudly point
each other to the fact, that the at
tention of the whole Union is now
directed towards them, and that
their gallant bearing eXcitcs the
admiration of the people wherever
liberty and patriotism is apprccia-
ted and the Union beloved-they
can truly say to each other, that
,tliey arc, striving for tho cause of
our common country, to secure the
liberty of Speech" tho Rights oil
States and the power Of the People,
and to withstand the infamous de-.
mands Of sectional fanatics, whose
vagaries have destroyed the peac,
and well being of our country
