We aro now approaching the close of one of the most important political canvasses ever known in tbo State of Ohio. The eyes of ev ery State in the Union are directed to Ohio, watching the agitation of the political waters, and anxiously anticipating the result. Why is it, that such unwonted solicitude should be evinced in other and romoto States, touching an election puroly local ? Why should tbo federal administration interest itself to influ ence tbe result of an election of the officers of this State ? Why should tho citizens of oth. er States be called upon for pecuniary contri. buttons, to aid in defraying the expenses of me very extraordinary canvass in wbicn tne pcoplo of Ohio are engaged ? The reason is, that Ohio, at the last three annual elections, has enunciated her sentimeats touching tho groat and absorbing question of the day ; ol which enunciation it is now sought, by every available means, to procure a reversal. She has asserted her unaltorable hostility to the extension ot tne institution of slavery within the limits of the nation. This is her position; and the re-election of Gov. Chase will be taken as a final and irreversable reiteration of her will in that respect. Thore are two great partis in tne state : the Kcpublican, which mam-tains this position ; and the so-called Democratic, which would readily adapt itself to any system of policy which offers to its leaders the possession and emoluments of Dlace. Hence tho extraordinary interest now felt south of Mason ana Dixon's line, to compass the defeat of Gov. Chose in this canvass, which would be regarded as an acquiescence on the part of the people of the State in the plans and policy of the slavery propagandists. , Does any sane man doubt the views entertained on this subject, by those who control yes, control the action of the federal executive ? Does any sane man doubt the fact that James Buchanan. o?ioj the " Cincinnati Platform," is completely and unreservedly in the hands of those who now do. and for man years have controlled the policy and action of tne icucrai government, with sole reference to the extension of the area of slavery ? If there bo such persons, they must be voluntarily deaf and blind to the events which are daily transpiring around them. Is there a Didy-mus in the broad land, who questions tho fact that money is being poured out like water, from without tho State, to influence, and if possible control tho result of the election now pending in Ohio ? Such an one would scarcely be convinced, though tho foul bride were thrust in his very face. JNotwithstandme this combination of foes from without, and greedy malcontents within. and notwithstanding the unscrupulous and extraordinary means resorted to for the accom plishment ot tbeir purposes, still, we have lit-tlo apprehension of the result. We believe that Gov. Chaso will be triumphantlyre-elected, and by a majority greatly increased from that by which he was borne to the cuberna- torial chair two years aero. This belief is founded upnn the fact that he has conducted the affairs of State, so far as devolved on him, in an able, faithful, and dignified manner: and upon an abiding faith in the discriminating intelligence and justice of the people of Ohio Moreover we know of scores and hundreds of individuals who refused twoyearsago to vote for him, but will now give him their cheerful and earnest support; and of not one who then voted lor bim and now withholds his support. This is no isolated state of the caso it is common to every county of the State. Bo lides, tno people have no motive for preferring ins opponent io nim none whatever and men do not act without a motive We have therefore no fears for the result. The canvass through which wo are now passing is peculiar in another particular. We refer to the shameless mondacity with which it is being carried on by those who soek a re vcrsal of tho popular judgment of Ohio, now three times solemnly and emphatically announced. Fables most bold and defamatory are propagated with an earnestness and persevering tenacity, absolutely shocking to common sense and public morality. Lies, not very ingenious, are invented, and an hundred presses groan to multiply their issue. Language and sentiments aro attributed to individuals, which they never uttered or conceived ; but which it is perfectly idle for them to disclaim, as it would but insure a repetition of the calumny. There was a time when Locofocoism was yot young that mon had some regard for their own fair fame, and would not deliberately utter and repeat that which they knew to bo untrue, for tho mere purpose of a temporary advantage. There was a time when mon would scorn advantages acquired by such means. There was a time when the whole community as one man would scorn the wretch who would not scorn a resort to such means. These men ought and that would be perhaps a punishment sufficiently severe they ought, after the election, to be compelled to read publicly and before their neighbors the miserable fabrications of their miserable intellects, with which they are now endeavoring to deceive tho voters of the State. If they could go through with such an ordeal, and not blush for slinnio, they would be made of more hardened stuff than we have supposed. From tho Cincinnati Commercial. Jefl" Davis on the Stump, We would call the attention of the Enquir er to tho following from a speech by Col. Jeff Davis, delivered the other day at Natchez, and would inguire whether it (our coteinpo- rary) holds Squatter Sovereignty to be a Dem ocratic principle : lie bad ever eombatted the " Squatter Sovereignty " doctrine as a dangerous innova-ti.m. And what a harvest have toe reaped from that novel tenet. It sent the slavery issue from the halls of Congress in the Territories, titers to generate fraternal strife, bloodshed, and the other unhallowed incidents of civil tear, without producing oni tanoible coon. It compel led tbo administration, in the Kansas difficulties, to interpose the Federal arm, notwith standing the earnest desire that the local civil I power, wiin tne oruinary posse comnwatus, would be all sufficient. Such were the results of Squatter Sovereignty, even as exemplified in a Territory whore the inhabitants were emigrants from the old States ; and their tendency should be to convince every citizen of the danger, the fallacy, and the impracticability of the doctrine, .

The Republicans of the Sixteenth Ward, in Cincinnati, held a meeting Friday evcning( for the purpose of organization, at which res olutiona wore passed endorsing the nominations made at Columbus, excepting that of Mr. Blickonsdorfcr. Wo copy the following from the Cincinnati dinette : " Mr. True, as a delegate from this Ward to the Columbus Convention, wished to say something in the form of a verbal report. The body wore perfectly united on every q .estion save one namely, that of tho nomination of J. Ulickensderror for the Board of Public Works. Ho was forced on tho Convention by circumstances which perhaps the public did not understand, Some had been giving him what they supposed a mere complimentary vote, not expecting he would have been elected on a first ballot; othors wore bored by contractors, and every sort of corrupt influence was brought to bear by outsiders, who at a late hour of the proceedings besot tho Convention like a herd of prairie wolves round a buffalo drove. After some furthor remarks Mr. T., concluded by moving resolutions endorsing the State ticket with tho exception of the name of Mr. Blickensdorfer and requesting that their representative at the .Executive Committee would use his best efforts, to have the name of that candidate repudiated. "Mr. Pollock said that he believed with two exceptions the Committee were already of the opinion that the name of Mr. Blickens- derfer was a dead weight to tbo ticket, and that he should withdraw. " Mr. Elliott also bore testimony to the fact that Mr. Blickensdorfer was nominated at the close of tho Convention. Tho objection to him in this county had extended to other counties. If he did not retire he should be thrown over-board. " Mr. True. Perhaps he cannot withdraw, The same power that ruled him in making the contracts holds him last now, and he dare not retire. " ine resolutions ot Mr. True, which we have not space to publish in detail, were then adopted, and tbe meeting separated." Payne Endorses Slavery. The time has come when the sham Democ racy can no longer disguise their fealty to Slavery. Payne, their standard bearer, the " torriblo and dreaded," unblushingly declares that " to take the negro from Arfrica and en slave him in the South, is an act of humanity, inasmuch as he is thereby brought under the influence of Christianity and Civilization 1 " It is truly a strange Christianity to teach that one man, because more powerful, has a right to enjoy the'boneflts of the slavish labor of another, and that to preach the true doc trines taught in tho Word of God is gcditiont and a beautiful Civilization that requires the carrying of revolvers and bowie-kives, and bullying as the qualifications of a gentleman. Strange dootrinos these pro-slavery Demo crats pTetch.Bellefonlaine Sepublican. A Hard Hit. The Fremont Journal tells a good story of Mr. Finefrock, the Fayno nominee for Repre sentative in that county, who was addressing some twenty-five or thirty persons in tho usual inflated stylo of the Drcd Scott Democracy, and making the most outrages charges against Governor Chase and the "Black Republicans," when he paused suddenly and exclaimed : " Now, gentlemen, what do you think ?" Instantly a man rose in the assembly, and with one eye partially closed, modestly, with Scotch brogue, said : " Mr. Finefrock, I think, Sir ; I do indeed, Sir, think, that if you and I should stump the county together, we could tell more lies nor any other two men in the county, Sir, and I'd not say a wrJ myself, 6" tbe timo, sir l" Relics of the Battle of Bladensbnrg. A youth, residing noar Bladonsburg hav ing had his curiosity oxcitod in relation to the battle of 1814, probably by the perusal of Williams' lately published history of that event last week commenced a soarch for rel ics upon the field of slaughter, and had not looked long before he found beneath two little mounds, in a gully, or ravine, the skeletons of a man and a boy, lying apparently as they bad fallen, where the earth was hastily thrown upon them. The skull or the man showed the perforation of the forehead by a musket or rifle ball. He lay upon his back with his arms extended, and near each wrist were his cuff buttons, some of which were still distinct enough to reveal the number, 85 ; from which, as well as from the position they occupied, it is inferred that these persons belonged to the English army.

The Re publican meetings were much larger and more enthusiastic than those held by our opponents, at which Payne and Lyttle spoke. Judge Wardon and tiov. Chase spoke at marietta, Pomeroy, Gallipolis and Ironton. At Mariet ta, meetings were held in the afternoon and evening, the meeting at romeroy was an extraordinary turn out. It was as large, and there was as much enthusiasm manifested, as in a Presidential election. The Republicans everywhere feel sanguine of increasing their majorities over what they (rave last year, and in Gallia county particularly, the gain for the Republicans will be very large.

It is stated by many of the survivors of the Central America's passengers that there was seldom so large an amount of money owned by passengers as was in the case of those who came by the Central America. Many wore persons of large means, and there were but very few whose immediate wealth did not amount to hundreds, while numbers reconcd their gold by thousands of dollars. Tho greatost portion of the passengers were returned miners, some coming hither to invest the capital they had realized in hopes to livo a life of greater ease as the result of their industry, and others to get their families and once more to go to the land of gold. But as the storm continued to rage, less and less of gold was thought ol, and when, on Saturday, it be came evident that they were likely at any moment to do ouried beneath the waves, wealthy men divested themselves of their treasure belts and scattered the cold upon the cabin floors, telling those to take it who wo'd lest its weight a few ounces or pounds- carry them to their death. Full purses containing in some instances $2,000, were lying untouched on sotas. tarpet bags were open ed by men and the shining metal was poured out on the floor with tho prodigality of death's dospair. Ono of tho passengers, who has fortunately becrf rescued, opened a bag and dash ed about the cabin $20,000 in gold dust, and told him who wanted to gratify his creed for gold to take it But it was passed by un touched. The Right kind of Talk. We fled the following righteous sentiments in one of our Illinois exchanges. We hope they are heartily endorsed by every lover of freedom throughout tho country : " No taxation without representation, was the principle upon which our Revolutionary battles were fought. Taxation without representation is what the present administration is trying to enforce upon the Free State men in Kansas. Such acourso, persisted in, will kindle every spark of patriotic fire in the country into a flame. The people of this country aro not willing that the principle of the American Revolution should be crushed out on the plains of Kansas ; and the day that witnesses the success of tho attempt, wilt bo the day of doom to the Republic. Such an upheaving of the liberty-loving mas ses, such a kindling of the watch fires of freedom, such consolidation for resistance of ty ranny will develop what ban never be tore been chronicled on the pago of history."

That the people of Ohio have been literally rouued by those to whom they have entrusted a portion of their business, in years gone by, no intelligent tax-payer can for a moment entertain a doubt. Strange as it inav appear. however, these same men who betrayed their trusts hitherto, have again succeeded in obtaining nominations and now ask to bore-instated, and that too without a shadow of penitence for former transgressions. We will give but one instance here. Under the management of Stcedman and Backus, they re ported that the average cost peryoar Tor keeping Section No. 6 of Public Works in repair, was $15,917 ! This estimate, bo it remembered, was mado by Stoodnian and Backus, or Backus and Stecdmau, just as you please. With this average expenditure staring him in the face, A. L. Backus proposed to contract to do this same work for $24,1(00 a year, bo-ing $21,017 less per annum than it had cost the State while under his own management and that of Steedman. When undergoing examination, before the investigating committee, under oath, A. L. Backus said when explaining how his bid came to be so far below the average cost for six years : " Wo relied upon an estimate of the average cost made by ourselves." What is this statement, made undor oath, more or less than a virtual acknowledgement, that the State of Ohio had paid not less than $150,000, in six years, more than was necossary to keep sectionNo. 6 in repair ? And yet this same Backus who thus acknowledges this enormous robbery, and who was forced to confess that he, while a sworn officer of the Stato, was willing to, and did suller her to be robbed of sover.il thou sand dollars in order that he might pocket one thousand, now has the bold effrontery to u.-& tue ieopie oi nio to again conltue her in ,1.. i . . . ... . . terest to his keeping ! Amendments to the Constitution. On the second Tuesday of October next the people of this Stato will bo called upon to vote for or against five amendments to tho Consti tution. A majority of the votes cast are re quired to adopt them. Therefore a failure to vote cither way is equivalent to a vote against the proposed amendments. The amendments to be submitted are as follows : 1. Annual sessions. 2. District Court Judges. 3. Equality of taxation, and authorizing deduction oi croaits. 4. General laws for corporations, but authorizing special laws for their relief in certain cases, 6. Single Districts for Senators and Representatives.The above amendments were agreed unon by more than three-fifths of each branch of the last Legislature. The vote in the Legislature on these amendments, was not a party vote, and we presumo, it will not be a party question at the coming election. We ask tho voters of all parties, (if they have not already done so,) to carefully read and reflect upon these amendments, and be prepared to vote for or against them with intelligence. The amendments will all bo found in the Republican, having been published evo-ry week for more than five mouths past. Look at them and see what is your duty in regard to them.

An anecdote of tho Rev. Mr. Field who lived in Vermont several years ago, con tains a good reply : As the Hov. gentleman wont, at a time to deposit his vote, tho officer who received it being a friend and parishioner, but of opposite politics, remarked : " I nra sorry, Mr. Field to see you hero." "Why?" atiked Mr. Field. " Bccauso " said tho officer, " Christ and His kingdom are not of this world."

The North-west has done remarkably well for free dom during the past two years, and we are glad it keeps up its spirit and determination.

So hard drivon are the Slavo Damocraoy for arguments to use against the Republican party, that they are compelled to resort to that worn-out and sale "negro equality " humbug, so industriously used during the lost campaign. Tho only Republican paper in the State which thuy can specify as advocating the political and social equality of blacks and whites, is tho Ohio State Journal. That paper thus summarily disposes of tho mean falsehood : " The statement that tho Ohio State Journal is in favor of tho political and social equality of the whites and blacks, as asserted io such papers as tho Columbus Statesman nd tho Dayton Empire, is ono of those mean false hoods which characterize the Locofoco paper of this State. We havo all along denied that any such question wag in this canvass. Whoa Mr. Monroe of Lorain brought forward- his bill, last session, to strike the word " white ' from the constitution, we took ground against it, as will be seen by turning to the Journal of January 13th : " We are opposed to th proposition of Mr. Monroe, and should vots against it were we in the Legislature. We would apply the same common sense to it that wo would to every day matters, and not waste- strength upon an impossibility.

A number of Elders were present, and the sayings and doings as reported in tie Globe were queorenough. The Apostle, Orson Pratt, gave the "sisters" some advice on the subject or marriage, claiming that tho institution if celebrated by tho Mormon Church, which alone had full authority, extended not only till death but throughout eternity.
