It is cLaimcd that the southeru portion of the State as well as the southern iiortioii of the country desires the election ol George H. Peuillcton. They say t'.ial Pondleton deserves much of his party tliat he was n membei of Congress when it cost all a mau was worth to bc a Democr.it, aud tliat lic battled with radicalism with au imwavering faith. Mr. Pendleton has some of the shrewdest jjolitina' wolkers iu liis party onlisted iu his behalf, amoDg whom may be mentionef ex-Speaker Converso. Gen. ïom Ewing was thoiight to possess considerable strength, but liis prospect do not pau out well of late. Next to these two leadmg cbampious corae in Goveruor-eleet Bishop, who is bèiug urgod by his friends on tlie same principie that Gen. Huyes was taken up for tlie Presidency. The Hon. H. B. Payne is not a popular mau, although the ablcst in mauy rcspects of thos? who are talked of for the office. He is uuderstood to be a hardmoney man, although his recent record has shown tliat he is willing to speak sphiux-like apon tlie subject. Thon there is old Gov. Willimn Allen. It is thought by some shrewd perusers of the political horoscope tliat ho will be brought forward. Bringing up the rear in starting are Judge Hoadly, Durbin Ward and Gen. Morgan all of wliom have good backing in certain parts of the State. Probably Uurbiu Vfard is the most promiucnt of these, having been a leadiug candidate before the State Convention for Goveinor. - Cotumbus (Ohio) Cor. Chicago Tribune.
