PRESIDEN fIAL ELECTION.
Latest from, the West.

-, (OHio.) Nov 8, 1898.
MEssRs. GALES & SEAroN We ara waiting in
anxious suspense to hear the result of Electoral
Election. The best unofficial calculation that can
be made here, gives jackson about 200 ahead. l
fear the vote of the state is gone for Jackson. There
is yet gmmering of hope left, but it is too faint
to give consolation to the heart There is no re-
sstng the fascination and wtchery Of military fame.
1t takes captive the hearts of men, Reason and ar
gument Of no avail every thing valuable is
Frustrated before it. Such is the devotedness Of ma
ny of Jacksons supporters that they would vote for
him either for President, First Consul, Emperor
for life.

THE ELEcTIoNs.-We are still without official
returns from N. York, Maryland, Ohio, and Kentuc-
ky. The probable, and generally conceded result
IS that N. York has given l6 for Adams and go for
Jackson, Maryland for Adams, s for Jackson, Ohio
16 for Jackson, and Kentucky entirely doubtful
Virginia, N. and S. Carolina and Georgia, are all
for Jackson. Enough is now known to warrant US
in saying Jackson has majority of the Electors in
his tavor--or rather that majority are against Mr
Adams.
