SiOnai DisIricts--The Radical
embcrs Kcpudiated by the
L'eODie.
While the Radical Congressman from
hio have been talking about imp eaching
the President, most ofthem have been i'm
peached by the people in their several dis
tricts. They will 90 to Congress in No
vembcr with the melancholy consciousness
that if they had been running this fall
they would have been badly beaten
Thus, in the First District, Mr.. Benjamin
Eggleston has been rebuked by 4 najori
ty of 400.
In the Second District, General Cary
an Independent greenback Republican,
succeeds General Hayes, against all the
efforts of the Radical organization to pre-
vent it. General Carey will pursue diff
ierent course in Congress from his prede-
cessor.
In the Third District. represented by
General Schenck, who has been exceed
civ vituperative OF the Democracy, the
Radicals were beaten by majority Of 500
or more.
In the Fourth District, represented by
Lawrence, (Radical, J there is now small
Democratic majority.
The Fifth District, represented by Will
lam Mungen, Democrat, has gone Demo
cratic by i largely increased majority
The Sixth District. which is now mis-
represented by the radical Clark, has also
been redeemed. 1t has gone Democratic
In the Seyents COR Shellabarger. radi-
cal District there Is very nearly tie
The vote is such as to show that he could
not be returned again.
The Eighth District, which returned
Hamilton, radical, last year, by l 800 ma
jority, now only gives the purity hundred
or two maj vrity
The Ninth auckland, radical Dis
trict, has given him laundering rcbuke
bv going Democratic by 1900 majority.
The Tenth District, now represented by
the notorious Ashley. who has been active
in the impeachment of the President, has
also gone Democratic by small majority.
He has received his quietus.
The Eleventh District, also Favlng a
radical member of Congress, (WIlsou,)
has been redeemed 1t is Democratic BY
a handsome majority.
The Twelfth District has Democratic
member of Congress, who has been sus-
tanned by largely increased majority
In the Thirteenth District, which IS
now represented By General Morgan, Dem-
ocrat, the Democratic majarltiy is nearly
1000. Columbus Delano, radical, has
been contesting General Morsan's right
to seat. Whatever the "rump" Congress
may do in the premises, the people have
again indorsed General Morgan by ma
iorty five OF six times as large as that
which they gave bin last year.
In the Fourteenth District, which is
represented by Welker, radical, and which
includes the strongholds Of Lorain and
Medina, the radicals have barely escaped
defeat by hundred or SO minority.
In the Fifteenth District the Democrats
are victorious by decided majority. This
is fitting rebuke to Plants, the present
radical member.
The Sixteenth District is Bingham's,
one of the most conspicuous OF the radical
leaders in Congress- 1t has been redeem
ed, and goes Democratic by small ma
jority. ~.
The Seventeenth, Eighteenth and Nine
tcenth Districts are all on the Western
Reserve, and in them. of course, the radl-
Gals have been able to retain their prepon-
dc-ance by greatly reduced majortleS.
From this summary it appears that eli
the sixteen radical members of Congress
from Ohio, only five have been sustained
by tho people at the late election; this,
too i'm districts which had been gerry
wandered and expressly "set up" al
ways to return radicals. Such revoi1-
ton in politics is almost unprecedented.
We should like to see the OHIO members
now, in the face of these results, 'go IN
for impeachiug President johnson !!
