From now until November, $780, will be
one Of the most exciting periods in the
political history of this Republic. On the
18th day of next month, the people of
Ohio will elect a 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 in the field, and the battle is be-
ing waged with q 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 and a Legislature. This
too is 3 contest of the highest National i'm
~portance. The Democrats fer several
years haye 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 inau-
gurated by their leaders in Congress, gives
the Republicans great encouragement.
This, together with a thorough conviction
Of the righteousness CT their cause, in
spires them with courage and confidence,
and they are determined to c ntest every
every inch Of the ground with that r%esolute
| 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 3 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 10 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 for
the vantage ground upon which to make
the great political fight of next year, when
q President is to be elected and a 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 the alert, wide awake
TO take advantage Of whatever
the leaders may imagine to be con
duclVe to their party sOccess. Early next
summer the National Conventions will be
held, and full tickets placed in the field,
when the work of the canvass will begin
with q vigor never surpassed in any SINH.
lar contest in the history Of Presidential
elections. Never before has q greater in
terest been felt in the result Of q national
election, so far in advance Of the time al
which it is 10 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 haV 8
State election next fall. Without any
sort Of eXaggeratiOn, this will be the most
important Of any ever held in the State.
The reputation wing, which is q majOrity
Of the Democratic party, IS marshalling It's
hosts for s. final charge against the credit,
honor, integrity and good name of the
Volunteer State. If tbey succeed, We ore
ruined and ~disgraced. They propose &c
place in the field a full ticket for Governor
and members Of the Legislature, com
posed of men committed to the policy Of
repudiating a largo proportion of the State
debt. They will be met by the State
credit men, and a desperate effort will be
made to rescue Tennessee from the control
of those who would bring upon her ever
lasting ruin and irretrievable disgrace. Nc
Tennes. eean can fail to feel q deep interest
in the result of our next State election.
In view of these interesting political
events, every intelligent man in the Union

liable political newspaper. Such we will

WEEKLY WING AND CHRONICLE. We
