Judge Warden arrived in town this morning, having completed his engagements in Southern Ohio. The Judge brings us good reports. The Republican meetings were much Barger and more enthusiastic than those held by our opponents, at which Payne and Lytle spoke. Judge Warden and Governor Chase spoke at Marietta, Pomeroy, Gallipolis, and Ironton. At Marietta meetings were held in the afternoon and evening. The meeting at Pomeroy 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 gave last year, and in Gallia county particularly, the gain for the Republicans will be very large.

IMPORTANT NEWS FROM KANSAS.-At a Mass Meeting of the Free State men of Kansas held on the 26th ultimo, it was decided that the Free State men WILL VOTE at the October election. They yet protest against the bogus laws under which they are compelled to vote, and also against that partial apportionment of the Territory which is intended to favor the slave power. It is thought by the Free State men that the best way to redress their wrongs, is to secure for themselves a fair representation through the ballot-box. It is also determined that the purity of the ballot-box shall be preserved at all hazards. PAYNE'S WHISKY BILL.-The Sandusky Pioneer says that "the Liquor Bill of Hon. H. B. Payne, the "Dred Scott" candidate, during the late convention, in room No. 190, in the American House, Columbus, alone amounted to $175,37." If it requires $175,37 worth of whisky to nominate a democratic candidate for Goyernor, what will be the amount required to elect him? The McArthur (Vinton Co.) Journal, of Thursday says: "Edson B. Olds and the Circus are both to be in town to-day. We rather think the show will have the largest crowd, though it would be rather difficult to say which has turned the greatest number of summersets, W. O. Dale or the Doctor. We'll bet on the Doctor, anyhow."
