The Democratic County Papers OF
IN az Ohio
Much that was complimentary was said
in the Eastern journals few weeks ago, IN
regard to the gallant fight made IN ONO oy
her invincible Democracy. The result OF
the elections In all the States when Voteu
this fall, shows that In none oil them, in
nroportion to the vote and the majority to
overcome, have the Democracy done as well
as In our State. We have, indeed, De-
mocracy that is neither cut down by defeat
1 nor intimidated bynumoers. In the recent
political campaign, in this State, there was
but. very little public speaking. General
Morgan and Colonel Lang, our candidates
for Governor and Lieutenant Governor, had
but little assistance In the canvass, from the
great mass of our popular Democratic ora
tors. aud the brunt of the fight fell upon the
fearless men who control the county pa
pers Of Ohio. The vigor, the efficiency and
the energy they threw into the canvass
awakened the Democratic people from tn
lethargy which enyeloped them, gand tn
election resulted in an immense reductio
of the Abolition majority, O large Demo
cratic gain In both branches Of tile Generi %
Assembly, and the election Of large mum ,
Der of local officers. 3hji1' 10 9!2!io ifii3u

with their hands on the pulse OF the pes lie,
are now uttering their sentiments and 'ie-
shadowing their determination. The 20
pie Of this Government have rigt to
sound currency, equal taxation ial
government, and to insist that gOverni mt
shall be administered with the greatest GU
gality--so that its ''blessings shall, like the
dews of heaven, fall alike upon the rich and
the poor" AS the reflectors OF the pn Vic
sentiment of the people, the county ID iho-
cratic press nobly champions their c. use.
