nj
pressed great confidence OF Democratic
victory in Ohio, and declared that there
were better grounds for that confidence
than is generally supposed. He said that,
having a very thorough knowledge OF the
State. he had watched the effect OF the nomi-
nations at Cincinnati in different sections OF
Ohio. and bad observed the opening OF the
canvass with great care. In forming judg-
ment of the probable result OF The election
he had given due weight to his apprehen.
sons, and made full allowance for the over
confidence OF enthusiastic friends. Bearing
all this in mind, he had reached the dellbe-
rate conclusion that success was assured
and that Ohio would this year be Demo-
cratic State.
Senator Mcdonald was very much amused
at Murat HaI,teads's long story about DEM
ocratic disaffecton in Indiana IN general,
and about Mr.. English and himself in par.
ticular, and characterized it as the work OF
Mr.. Halstead's Imagination.
Among the letters received yesterday by
the Democratic National Committee was one
from Lewis Il. Parsons, the Democratic cam
didate for ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF Illinois.
| He with other candidates on the State ticket
| is visiting all sections OF the State, and,
writing from Joliet on the Both OF July,
says: 1--WE have now been in eight con-
gressional districts, and have seen rep
resentative men from over fifty c0un-
.ics. We find the universal tone bet
ter than we expected or ventured to
hope for. Never since 40 have we seen
the like OF it. and then it was on the other
side. Everywhere there is hope, enthusi-
asm, and determination. No one seems 10
doubt our ability to carry the national
| ticket, and the feeling is becoming general
that we can elect our State ticket, and well
| figbt for it. The Greenback Democrats are
| falling into line largely, while the Republl-
can Greenbackers hold on 10 the Greenback
party. In southern Illinois we shall not
suffer from that. Again, the young men
are largely coming 10 us-I mean those who
will cast their first vote this fall. Clubs
are rapidly forming in large numbers.
We have, present company excepted,
the best State ticket possible. Judge
| Trumbull VIII have the united Demo
cratic support; he has the profound
respect OF all men for his great abilities and
spotless character. Many Greeley Liberals
who went back TO the Republican party, as
| well as many other Republicans, will sup
port him. All OF the ticket is very popular
| We rely greatly upon larger vote than was
cast in 1876. Our voting population then
was scarcely less than Ohio's, yet we cast
ITO, 900 less than that State. In 1872 Grant,
majority was $4,000. In 1876 Hayes had
less than 1000 over all, and about $4,000
only over Tilden. CoOper's vote was about
| II, 900. Two thirds of that is likely to come
to us. We think we can get out many more
than the Republicans Of the votes not out In
1876"
F.E. Albright, Of Murphysboro', H., un
der date of July Goth, writes: a" We ar'
going to carry the State OF Illinois. We
have very strong State ticket, and Han
cock and English are very popular. Logar
is getting his Indian blood cooled down.
r. II. Brokaw, OF Boundbrook, n. j..
writes that Hancock's majority in that State
will be 10000.
James A. Robinson, Of Winston, n. c..
in letter dated July 18th, writes awe
have formed here, at the county seat. :
campaign club, and are ready for active ser
vice. We are in county heretofore Re
publican, and we expect TO carry 1t TIN:
year, though we have here the revenue
headquarters for this district, and the Off
Gals exert great power and influence oyel
voters"
