* Official inajorities. f Dem. gain. t Rep gain.
The defeat was staggering to the Democrats, and
the World, the leading organ of the party, recom-
mended a change of ticket, substituting Chief Jus-
tice Chase for Governor Seymour, and M'Clellan
for Blair. The latter it reviled as the real cause of
the disaster, stigmatizing the Brodhead letter as
the handle given to the Republicans, which was
used so fatally by them. The proposal caused
great excitement in WaAlington, and was favoured
by President Johnson, and advocated by his organ
the liitelligencer. Mr. Chase spoke disparagingly
of the change, and alluding to it again stated that he
had never desired to take any part in polities, nor
had he actively sought the Presidency, nor
will he seek it. Had he been nominated
unanimously in the New York Convention with
the platform he sanctioned he would have ac-
cepted the trust. A ridiculous intrigue was
attributed to him, in which the Secretary of
War and some foreign Ministers, among them the
British, were said to have taken part. The Repu-
blican papers are unanimous in believing their
ticket so certain of election as to have lost the inte-
rest of uncertainty, and the election in West Vir-
ginia on the 22d inst., giving that party a majority
of 4,000, removes even the possibility of another
result. indeed this may be seen from the
following table taken from the Mobile Register,
which the World considered worthy of a place
before the elections of the 13th lust. Seymour—
Connecticut, 6 ; New York, 33 ; Pennsylvania,
26 ; New Jersey, 7 ; Delaware, 3 ; Maryland, 7 ;
Kentucky, 11 ; Alabama, 9 ; Georgia, 8; Ohio,
21 ; Indians, 5 ; California, 5 ; Oregon, 3 ;
Nebraska, 3 ; Nevada, 3.---Total, 158. Grant
—Maine, 7 ; New Hampshire, 5 ; Vermont, 5 ;
Massachuset:s, 12 ; Rhode Island, 4 ; Illinois,
16 ; Wisconsin, 8 ; Michigan, 8 ; lowa, 8 ; Min-
nesota, 4 ; Kansas, 3; Tennessee, 10; Missouri, 11 ;
Arkansas, 3 ; Lou;siana, 7 ; South Carolina, 6 ;
North Carolina, 9 ; Florida, 3 ; West Virginia, 5.—
Total, 136. This calculates for Seymour the four
States which went Republican. Edward Pi,rrepont,
among the ablest of the Conservative Democrats of
Now York, has signalized his return to the
Republican ranks by forwarding to A. T.
Stewart, the chairman of the Grant committee, a
$20,000 cheque for campaign purposes ; whereon
the World thus commented :—" $20,000 for what?
Can it be possible that Judge Pierrepont has over-
looked, or that Mr. Stewart will be likely to
overlook, the very stringent statute laws of our
estate respecting misconduct at elections? Are they
aware that it is a misdemeanour, punishable by flue
or imprisonment, for any person, by any ' corrupt
means or device whatsoever, either directly or indi-
rectly, to attempt to influence any elector in this
State in giving his vote,' or with intent to promote
the election of any candidate, to provide or fur-
nish entertainment' for the purpose of promoting a
candidate's election, or to pay for, procure, or en-
gage to pay for any such entertainment,' or to
contribute money for any other purpose intended to
promote an election of any particular person or
ticket, except for defraying the expenses of print-
ing and the circulation of votes, handbills, and
other papers previous to such election, or for
conveying sick, poor, or infirm electors to the polls.'
Then Mr. Helmholl, of buchu notoriety, forwarded
double the amount to the Democratic Committee,
and on this the World exclaimed :—" llelmbold
Ahead of Pierrepont !—The following correspon-
dence is important, as it practically illustrates the
views of thinking and enterprizing merchants, and
those who have not altogether lost their love of
country or constitution as handed down by our fore-
fathers, or who have a respect for maintaining its
honour and character." There is nothing like con-
sistency. On the 14th inst. Speaker Colfax arrived
at Cleveland, and was received with salutes of
guns by a deputation of citizens to whom he deli.
vered an address, during which he was interrupted
by a man who cried " What did you do in 1854 ?
You organised a Know-Nothing Lodge ;" whereupon
Colfax turned and said, " It's a lie," but the man per-
sisted till he was carried away by the mob. Col-
fax wasto
Ben have
ivade a
,reception at Detroit, at
which
Garfield, and Sam
Gen.
grand
Gal-
loway of Ohio, Governor Oglesby of Illinois, and
Crapo of Michigan, were expected. On the day
of the elections Gen. Grant was in Galena, and was
serenaded by his friends at the Hon. E. H. Wash-
burn's residence, on receipt of the election news.
We are happy to say that the Hon. Thomas A.
Jenckes has been nominated by the Republicans
in the First District of Rhode Island, though by
the dropping of a " not" we were made last week to
say the reverse. We consider Mr. Jenckes' pre-
sence in the House of Representatives as necessary
for the safe conduct of the Civil Service Bill he has
worked so hard to frame, and which we hold to be so
desirable for the prosperity of the United States.
In the Republican Convention for the Western Dis-
trict, in Woonsocket, which assembled on the 13th
inst., the Hon. Mr. Mason presiding, the Hon.
Nathan F. Dixon, of Westerly, was recommended
for Representative in Congress by 31 votes. Four-
teen votes were cast for Rowland G. Hazard, and
one scattering. Presidential electors were nomi-
nated as follows : George H. Norman, of New-
port ; James T. Edwards, of East Greenwich ; Jas.
W. Pendleton, of Westerly ; and Seth Padelford,
of Providence. The Democrats have nominated
Judge Lord, it is said in Butler's interest ; it is
asserted that thereby they have secured his return.
A great meeting was held at Boston, Oct. 14, at
which 10,000 were present inside and out the
Faneuill Hall, and Butler was received with great
enthusiasm. At a Convention of the Massachu-
setts Churches in Boston, Oct. 14, an anthem of
praise was sung for the result of the State elections
of the preceding day.

A cage of Spani3h merino lambs was shipped
from San Francisco to a breeder in Vermont, in Septem-
ber, and will be followed by others, as it was preceded by
numerous shipments to Japan, Australia, New Zealand,
and ports on the Pacific coast. There aro now from ono
thousand five hundred to two thousand full-blooded Spa-
nish mer.nos in California.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] -- llolloWay'S Pills. Satisfactory
Results.—When the blood is foul, the stomach disordered, or
the bowels irregular, these I'ills prove infallible curatives. A
gentleman who had been a sufferer for years, though he had
sought the best professional aid, writes—" I cannot describe the
effect your medicine had upon me ; it carried off more bi:e, and
made me feel lighter and more cheerful than all the medicine I
hal previously taken." Holloway's Pills strengthen the stomach,
prevent biliousness, purify the blood, raise the spirits, and give
energy to both body and mind. Another patient writes—" Since
I took your pills and rubbed your ointment on my chest, the
cough, which never quitted me throughout the night, only occa-
sionally plagues mo slightly."
