The whole country awaits with interest," If not
anxiety, tho vote of Ohio, tomorrow The latest

EDITORIAL VIEWS OF THE CINCINNATI GAZETTE.
The Cincinnati Gazette, of Saturday editorially
says "1he case has been virtually given to the
Jury, which consists of $40 600 voters. This jury
decides by majority and the only question now
is whether the majority for Hayes, honest mon-
ey, free schools, and no connection between
Church and State, will be 10000 or 10000. 1t
will not fall below tho former figure, and we do
not expect it to exceed the latter This estimate
s based upon the best obtainable information,
and upon the fact that the people are vide
awake, desperately in earnest, well informed,
aud upon tile further belief that the full vote OF
the State will be polled. Whether the majority
will be twenty, thirty or forty thousand, wall do
pend upon the vigilance of Republicans in get
ting out the vote and preventing frauds"

SATURDAYS SPEAKING -eENAToR MORTON ron
HARD MoNEy-A rIsE SPEECH BY SENATOR DAWES
--DkMoCRATIc OVERWHELMINGLY.
Special 10 the Nep York Tribune.
CINcIsNArI, Oct 10.--The flood OF campaign
oratory rose to high-water mark Saturday IN al
most every city aud village OF the State. Il tor
rent Of talk flowed until late at night. Every man
who could make speech was in demand. In
Columbus, Mr.. Woodford aud Mr.. Ewing held
the last OF their Joint discussions, before large
audi nAntiianp
Republicans, and Col. Dianypenny for the Demo-
Gratis, and nearly all tho prominent citizens of
the capital were present Each OF the speakers
appears by the reports to have been in the best
fighting trim, intellectually, and the DEBATE WAS
the best of the series.
In this city large Republican and Democratic
meetings were held within few squares of
each other. Congressman Beck spoke to the
Democrats against the National banks and III
favor of paying the bonds IN greenbacks. At
the Republican gathering Senator Motion graft
fed his hearers, who remembered his course in
Congress, by placing himself on solid ground on
the currency question Senator Dawes followed
MIR. Morton, and advocated resumption by the
road OF funding the greenbacks.
The confidence of the Republicans increases
every day. Ia the grain producing districts along
the Ohio where heavy dosertlon was feared, the
local committees write that they Will poll fnil
vote. Tho news from tho Western Reserve war
rants the expectation that the Republican vote
there will be equal to that of Presidential years.
In nearly al tho heavy Democratic counties Re
publican gains are promised. Within the past
two or three days the Democratic leaders appear
to have had a presage Of defeat, and have not
been able to conceal their dependency. Wheth-
or their changed tone arises from mesmeric
impression. which come people imagine fore
casts the issue of political struggle, and ex-
press by saying they "feel it in the air or
whether thoy have information which leads
them to disttust their former estimates OF
strength is not known; but tho fact of their
encouragement is plain. 1t IL reported that a
quiet canvass has been made of the voters in q
few test localities, and that the result is what
has 30 dsheartened the Democratic leaders.
Yesterday leading Democratic editor, talking
with Republican friend, admitted that his !af-
~ waa beaten and laid the blanc on GOV. Tilden
and his 'infernsl New York Dcmocrate.' AS
soon as the election was over, lie said, the
friends OF Allen would take their revenge by
working for tbe defeat of Tilden's tcked, and
organizing greenback marty in New York.
