The Union Vote in Ohio.

The contempla tion of few simple
figures will give some of our Repnb-
lican friends a new idea. Ohio is gen
orally regarded as a rather CLOSE
though not. ordinarily, a doubtful
State. But the difference between the
maximum Union vote and the maxi
mum Copperhead vote does not JUS
tify that view of the case. The larg-
est vote ever pOlled in Ohio by the
Union party was that which elected
Brough in 1863,-288, ,661, The larg-
est Copperhead vote ever pOlled was
that Of last year-2l3, COG. Now mani
festly the great increase Of our vote %
1863 over its usual limit was not due
to the accession Of any floating ele-
ment" which would at another time
drift over to the Democratic side for
the Democratic vote has at no time
given evidence Of such a reinforce
ment. The cause Of such a prOdig-
ious majority that year was simply thar
the Union vote was brought out The
Vote is always there but it does no
good if it is not made visible and etfec.
tive at the polls. We can win Brough
victory this Fall if we will only in
duce our reserves" to wake up and
90 to the front A majority of from
75, 600 TO 100000 over the rebel Dem
ooracy is within our 20 ser Of achieve
ment, if we so resolve, aud make our
performance tally vita our resolution.
