Re.Districting the State.

The important fact does not seem to
be borne in mind that upon the next
Legislature will devOlye the duty of re-
disIricting the State, and that hence the
political complexion of the CoHgression-
al delegation from this State will be de-
termined by the manner in which the
State is re-districted. Ifthe Democra-
cy get control of the Legislature the
work may be SO done by process of
jerry Wandering that a difference of
from FIVE to seven Congressmen may
be the result, the popular vote remain
ing the same. TO have the Congress-
io1al delegation Copperhead when the
State is thirty thousand Republican,
would be humiliation and disgrace al
most too great to be borne. And yet
such a result is possible ifa few Repub-
licans in each township should stay
away from the polls A change of
eleven votes in a township would turn
last October's majority against us and
hand over the State to the COpperheads.
The Garfelds, Binghams and Schenks
would then, in all probability have to
give place to the Van Tramps and Nun.
gems. A State which has nobler war
record than any in the Union would
then be represented in Congress by the
allies of those who tried for five years
to destroy the Union. TO contemplate
this result, and then say that this is not
an impartant canvass, is matchless stu
pidity. - Columbus Journal
