-EmcOuragimg Prospect.

-EmcOur0gimS ArOsPcc"
No State has ever had better ticket foi
Representatives in Congress than is nov
presented by the Democracy OF ONO
Among our candidates aresome of the ables
] statesmen of the country, who have distin'
guished themselves in many public posi-
tions of trust and responsibility. Our read
ers will be gratifed to learn that we have
the most cheering Intelligence from all the
Districts; and that the canvass is progress
| ing quietly and satisfactorily in each O.
them. - At, .S.Nlt'tt = 3 q
y In the First, glorious GEORGE e. PuGl
will leave BEN EGGLEsToN so far behind In
the race, that the friends of the latter will
have to produce affidayits, afterthe election
to provo that he was candidate. JosEpn
c. BUTLER is doing good work in the Sec
ond, and will, it is thought beat Col
HAYES handsomely. DAVID A. HoUK is
after Vienna SoHENcK in the Third, with a
fair prospect of success. In the Fourth,
our worthy and excellent friend, JOHN
FRANK MCKINNEY, is making a splendid
canvass, and is converting men to the true
faith by. the. hundreds. He will be re-
elected over WILLIAM LAWRENCE by a
larger majority than he received over
WEST, two years ago. FRANK G. LIE BLOND
will add largely to his former majority, in
the invincible Fifth his competitor, Col.
WALKER, will be nowhere in the race.
Chiffon A. WHITE is doing wonders in the
Sixth, and our advices are, that, be will be
triumphantly reelected his competitor is
r. w. CLARKE. In another article we
speak Of the canvass In the Seventh, In
which Cox is bound to beat SHELLA7
,BARaER once more. The Eighth will re-
elect WILLIAM JOHNSTON over JAMES
r. HUBBELL, the prince of Ger
rymanderers. WARREN p. NOBLE is MAX
ing magnificent canvass in the Ninth, and
we are assured that he will be reelected by
handsome majority; Gen. BUcKLAND is
his competitor. In the Tenth, A. V. RICE,
the brave and gallant Colonel of the 57th
o. Wv, l.. will beat that notorious corrup-
zionist, jim ASHLEY, who has disgraced a
seat in Congress long enough. WELLS A.
HuTcHINs will, we are assured, be re-elect-
ed over BUNDY, in the Eleventh. The
Twelfth will send WILLIAM E. FNCK back,
with the largest majority that will be given
to any Congressman in Ohio; for the votes
that JOB STEVENSON will get may be set
down under the head of-"Scattering"!
CHARLES FoLLErr is making gallant fight
in the Thirteenth, and we regard his elec-
tion as certain, over COLUMBUS DELANo.
The Fourteenth will, we trust, again
honor itself by returning that very
able and faithful Congressman, GEORGE
BLISS, whose services at Washington have
been of such incalculable advantage to his
constituents. We receive the most encour-
aging assurances from the District-that
BLISS will be reelected, and WELKER de-
feated, again. JAMES r. MORRIS is entitled
to a reelection, in the Fifteenth, and we
are assured that he aoiH be reelected. He is
making splendid canvass, while the
speeches of PLANTS, his competitor, are
listened to by few and elicit no enthusiasm
whatever. The Sixteenth furnishes unmis-
taxable indications of the triumphant re-
election of JOSEPH w. WHITE over JOHN A.
BINGHAM. In the Seventeenth, JONATHAN
II. WALLACE is making the fur fly; his can
yass is a telling one-with fair pros
pect of success, over Z. r. EoKLEY.
JEPTHA Fl. WADE ought to be sent in Judge
SPALDING's place, from the Eighteenth;
but we fear the majority is too great to over
come. Our friends, however, will make
immense gains in the District. HALsEY II.
MOSES would serve the people of the Nine
tcenth better than Gen. GARFIELD does; but
the Abolition majority in the District is
larger than in any other District in the
State; we fear that MOSES willn be able
10 overcome it--yet he will make large
gains. b. r,..-gr,. n H. .',i,.r
