From now until November, 1880, will be
one Of the most exciting periods in the
political history Of this Republic. On the
14th day Of next month, the people of
Ohio will cleo Governor and other State
officers. Heretofore, parties have been
very evenly divided there, which, together
with the important influence which the re-
suit is to have upon the great Presidential
contest Of next year, gives the contest a
national interest, and its decision will be
regarded with deep concern in every nook
and corner of the Union. Two strong
tickets are ia the field, and The battle is be-
ing waged with vigor which shows that
each party fully appreciates the prize for
which they are striving.
In November, the great State OF New
York will elect q Governor, State
officers aud q Legislature. This
too is contest of the highest National i'm
portance The Democrats fer several
years have been in the ascendancy there,
but they are now disturbed By internal
discussions, which, together with the dis
advantage at which they are placed by
being held responsible for the policy insu-
gurated by their leaders in Congress, gives
the Republicans great encouragement
This, together with thorough conviction
| of the righteousness of their cause, in
spires them with courage and confidence,
and they are determined TO CO nte8t every
every inch of the ground with thatresolute
purpose which animates true and tried
soldiers fighting for the dearest and most
cherished principles The result in that
State will be looked to all over the Nation
with an interest never before felt in State
election. The giants Of both political par
ties, all over the Nation, will take part in
the contest and the issues involved will
be ably and thoroughly discussed.
Elections will also be held in November,
in Iowa, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Minnesota,
Massachusetts and Pennsylvania In each
of these States the two great political par
ties will put forth their best efforts, and re-
suits will be looked TO with extraordinary
interest.
On the first Monday in December Con
gress meets again, and the SESSION promises
to be one of extraordinary interest The
leaders will contend with each other fol
the vantage ground upon which to make
the great political fight Of next year, wber
President is to be elected and e new Con
gress to be chosen. Every man who feels
any interest in politics will desire to watch
every step of the preliminary struggle.
Already an intense interest Is manifested
; in the Presidential struggle Of 1880. Both
parties are on tho alert, wide awake
to take advantage of whatever
the leaders may imagine to be con
: ducive to their party socGess. Early mex
{ summer the National Conventions will b
held, and full tickets placed II the field
when the work of the canvass will begin
{ with q yigor never surpassed in any SINH
lar contest in the history OF Presldentla
elections. Never before has greater III
terest been felt in the result Of nationa
election, so far in advance of the time a
: which it is to be held, than now exists.
= In addition to the national issues
around which will centre so much of pub
lie interest, in Tennessee we will have
State election next fall. Without any
sort of exaggeration, this viii be the mos
, imnortant of any sver held in the State
The Reputation wing, which is a majority
of the Democratic party, is marshalling it

ruined and disgraeed. They propose t.
place in the field full ticket for Governo

Tennesseean can fail to feel deep interes
