Democratic calculations.

The Columbus correspondent Of the
Cincinnati Commercial makos public the
! figuring Of the Copperhead managers OF the
State. They intend, If possible--and upon
this point all their strength is being e1'
pended-to carry majority OF both
branches Of the Legislature, and they have
selected the districts aud counties which
they have marked doubtful" and feel
quite confident Of carrying. Among the
Representative districts we notice that
composed Of Williams, Pauldhbg and De.
fiance, and of tho Senatorial districts upon
which they have cast greedy eyes the
Thirty.third is prominent. They have SO.
looted these points FOR their hardest work,
and instructed their fuglemen in each to
take advantage Of all causes for dissatisfac
tion, local or general, and to bring every
agency they can command to bear upon the
one point, the Legislature. In the Williams
Pauldng aud Defiance District they depeud
upon the apathy of the Republicans oil
Williams and Defiance and an unfortunate
division in Paulding, and the Thirty third
Senatorial District they hope to carry by
dint of hard work and the Incidence Of the
Republicans. Not to lose point in the
game, they forced Jas. G.. Haley, one ol
their nominees, to decline the nomination
that Henry Brown, OF Hancock, more &C
complished demagogue, might be put upon
the track and all the difference OF opinion
all the jealOusies, heart-burnings and dis
appointments are being industriously man
ipulated with o view of overcoming the
| 300 majority of last fall, and sending Il
the Senate one at least oil their two nomi
| nees.
Do the Republicans Of the Northwestern
Districts appreciate the Importance Of the
eection this falP Do they understand the
cause of this intense anxiety on the par
of the Democracy for success and why
! they are willing in all the doubtful coun
ties, to trade everything for members o.
the Legislature The object of all this
work and trading is the election of Val
landigl am in the Senate of the United State,
in h place of Wade That is all there is o
it. They desire, above all other earthly
things the elevation of their great leader
during tho war, who from his Canadial
home directed their movements aud die
tated their policy, to the Senate Of the
United States, in the place of one in al
! particulars his opposite. To this end the
Democracy OF Ohio are putting forth Q
greater effort than ever before since the or
ganizaton of the party. To this end arc
they fomenting divisions in our ranks, aud
bringing in petty side issues to distrac
the attention of the people.
1t is for ourselves to say whether thi,
huanciering shall be successful or not II
may be that the action of the Republicans
of any one Of the counties will decide the
Senatorial question, which is really TIE i'm
pOrtant issue this tall. Every voter de
claros when he deposits his ballot his
preference for Valandigham or Wade, as
directly as though it had the name of hit
favorite printed upon it. Shall we, through
Incidence, apathy or Indifference, permit
Ohio to be represented in the Senate by a
man exiled, and justly, for disloyalty to the
Government ?-Biatle.
