in this section OF Ohio tomorrow. The
canvass on both sides has been most vigor.
ously carried on, and is still going on this
evening. Foster was here Saturday night,
accompanied by Garfield, and the effect
has been buoyanto on Republican prospects.
Cuyahoga county will roll up over 1000
majority for Foster. "A great many who
voted with the Nationals last fall will sup
port Foster now. The change in busi-
ness prospects has helped the Republic
ans. Persons who left thefold under stress
othard times have returned to their nat
ural affiliations. once more. The counties
Of Lake, Geauga, Lorain, Mahoning,
Trumbull and Ashlatubla will give larger
maiorities than they have given for years,
and the whole Reserve will do only what
it does on great and momentous occasions,
come out with its whole vote. The extra
session OF Congress, coupled with the &C.
ton OF leading Southern Democrats, has
aroused in this section all OF the old war
spirit, and its effects will be seen.
Looked at from the standpoint OF this
region, Foster will have at least $4,000
majority, and no one need be surprised II
it is twice that figure. Much however
depends on the position taken by the
Nationals and the amount OF scratching
done by the hard money Democrats. In
the mining regions Ewing will be greatly
scratched, both on account Of his support
OF Mine Inspector Poston, and his vote
forthe Wood tariff bill. Contrary tothe
calculations Of some, the soldiers Of North.
