ground in this county very rapidly, menthe
New York nominations. A' prominent gen-
Unman in Perry township, says that be knows
of twenty-nine Democrats wbo have already
decided to support the Chiesgo nominees.
What is true orPranklin county and Perry
township, in Ohio, is also trite of almost every
other locality in the United States. Grant
and Colfax are gaining strength every hour
and will continue to do so until the polls clam
in November. There is nothing more cer
tain in the future than the triumphant elec
tion of these candidates.
We have paid some attention to Presiden
tial nominations in the past, but never yet
have we seen one tithe of . the disgust
mani
tested by the members of any political organ
ization, as b now seen on every band in the
Democratic ranks. They are ad dissatisfied
with the action of their national convention,
and three-fourths of them take no pains to
conceal their feelings in this respect. An
flirt is being made in this locality by local
candidates sad's few party leaders to induce
the rank and Ste to lake hold; but thus far
long visages and snappish words meet and
greet them at every step. The meat ofthem
we presume will eventually vote for Scsieur
