The anxiety in New York to knosw the rssaR Of
the late election in this State, cannot be greater II
this moment, than throughout this cit which APP
psars 70 be all IN hsne with politics or patriotism
Every psinting Office, reading room and otel is be-
seged With crowds Of eager beings to learn the news
There il even yet no certainty of the result. Re-
turns have been received from nearly all the. coun-
ties and the remaining few will give strong vote
for the Adwins tration. All the extras issued this
evening" give different results and majorities; but
from the closest approximation to the truth at this
time there is every TO suppose that the State
at this election, will give from 400 to 1000 votes in
the aggregate for the democrats. The wings how
ever count on the State in November. Their party
did not turn out in Berks county nor in Ferry, which
gives large majority for Van Buren,. In the State
election Of 1896, the Vaa Buren, ticket had over
10000 majority, and in the election fortnight after
wards, Harrison was only beaten 1000.
II is conceded that the Legislature will b; WhgS
and that there will be gain of members of Gen.
gress-which is deiDg very well. On yesterday the
votes were examined at the different codnty seats;
and by Monday we will know all about it.
In Ohio, the Harrison boys are sweepins.every
thing before them. Old Tip is going it there with
perfect rush. The majority for Corwin 10 far, is
beyond any expectation. He will be excited by
10 900 majority and the Old Hero will dousls on
him There is gain already Of 3 members of Con-
rress; they will have l3 out of ~ beyond doubt.
Now they have but 8. Dr. Duncan is certainly beat.
en- Nov tell Chapman TO crow!'
Every one is so absorbed with Pennsy lyania, that
the triumph in New Jersey is Almost overlooked
Whv il is of more sequence than Ohio and Penn
syvania together. The freeho ders Of Virginia have
been watching with the greatest anxiety the vote Of
that State will change the vote Of 100 farmers at
Buckingham Court House, soon as the news
reaches there.
If any thing arrives more decisive from Pennsy-
vania tomorrow during the day, you shall have it
For the present. let the Wing lsaders of the Herald
