That the entire Democratic ticket is elected we have
no doubt Moses II. Grinnell, who threw himself
upon the sympathes Of his faction TO sustain himself
against his character man, has been defeated.
This is n rebuke TO the transactions of 1888. He ap
pealed to his fellow citizens aury they have passed
upon his conduct; the verdict is returned; and he is
condemned 1t will teach important lesson to him
and to his Wing friends, who have been SO forward IN
the pempt first to cheat the people out of their votes,
and then 10 humbug them out OF their sympathes lie

speak in such commendatory terms, there can be no

ministraton when the President declares with nncilon
that he became member ofan Abolition Society at i
years ofage and that il has been object dear to
his heart to see the surplus of the General Co.

slaves. South Carolina will never conntcnance can

that her vote will be cast by large majority in favor

The Wing majority, therefore, if these returns should
prove correct, would be nine thousand. But We
have no belief of their correctness aid is not haz
ardng much to say that the result in the State is still
doubtful.
We do not believe in these Wing reports from the
Southern tier of counties, because they are set down
in round numbers, and therefore evidently mere
estimates. There is another reason, assigned by a
correspondent, for believing not only that these re-
ports cxaggeraon, but that there has been act
ually Democratic gain in these counties. He says
