New York Election.

We have now full returns from New York,
showing the character of the Legislature chosen
on the 4h The Senate stands-25 democrats,
Is wings, and l 'native;' the House, IA demo-
Gratis, and 81 wings. Democratic majority in
the Senate, Is; in The House, 30. Tnfs is a de-
mocratic increase on Joint ballot, as compared
with last year Of 16.
Colonel You've is undoubtedly elected in the
4th senatorial district
There has been much mixing up of parties in
this election, and in some quarters the old party
ties appear to have been totally disregarded-
but whether severed forever, or not, is more
than we can now say. With the general result
we are abundantly satisfied; but it must be ev
dent to every rejecting observer of New York
politics, that the condition of parties there is one
almost without precedent in our history, ant
that the responsibility resting upon our eminen
men there, and upon the democracy generally
is very great. proverbial shrewdness, on'
undoubod patriotism, will all be demanded Il
the work Of bringing matters right before the oc
ctrrcnce Of another important election.
5 The majority for the Convention which is tt
revise the State Constitution, is more than fftl
Thousand, according TO the Tribune. The vote
however, on this matter, does not appear to hav
} been large, and, indeed, it was small on ever

Prospects OF the Democratic Party.
Union.
The Kentucky Intelgencer remarks: aThere
is much in the recent elections, as well as in the
general state Of affairs throughout the country,
10 cheer the heart Of every true democrat.
Wherever the Laule has been, between the uni
ted forces of the Democrats and Wings, the for
mer have noby triumphed. Indiana has more
than maintained the democratic stand she took
in the Presidential election. Tennessee has
wheeled into our ranks and sent forth her shouts
for Young Hickory, and the champion of Texas.
Maryland has nearly broke the chains that bound
her. Pennsylvania has done her duty TO the tune
of 10000 majority. The Democracy of Ohio
and Georgia alone have wavered in the struggle.
In Ohio the fault has been mainly with The De-
mocrutic press. Whilst these papers should have
been fighting the common enemy, and advoca-
ting correct principles, they have been engaged
| in pitiful quarrels with each other. Instead of
forming correct issues such as reason would ius-
! tify, and the people would sustain, some of the
papers have gone to the utmost verge Of radical
ism, others turning to the opposite extreme, have
almost identified with the wings, in order 10 op-
pose and abuse each other. This course of the
Democratic press confused The Democracy off
State, as to what they should support or what
oppose. i made them disrusiuI of the genu-
ineness OF the democracy of many of their best
papers, and so dsgusted many hat they either
voted with the wings al the last election or staid
at home. On the heads eff these lathIess sent-
uels rests the defeat of tae Democratic party in
Ohio. Some professed democratic papers are
sowing the seeds ofdissenson in other stales,and
in the hegreatparty the Union.

been afoat for some days past; ''lt is high time

for several days. 1t has assumed different pha-

before the arrival of the Great Western, that a
proposition would be made by the British Gov

"Jourual of Commerce." in letter from this
city, that it was TO be made. Then the specua-

Whig NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

The Wing Almanac und Politicians Register,
published by Greeley g. McElrath, New York, is
generally considered The text book of the Wing
party. In the No. for 1916 is an article on the
Oregon Question, copied from the Edinburgh
(Bdtshy Review, and OF course gives The British
the right to the largest and most important part
of Oregon. A British scribbler, hanging round
the purlieus of the British Foreign Office, col
ects the ofals of the undersirappers of her most
gracious Britannia Majesty, reports them for a
British journal, and they are forthwith hawked
through republican America as the text book of
the universal Wing party.

been for .forty-one years voter in that county,
presented hlmselfat the polls, and the judges re.

Daniel Mehster n Native.

Mr.. Webster addressed meeting of the wings
of Boston on the 9th, at Faneuil Hall. In the
course of his speech he avowed himself in favor
of the ''yishes and objects of the Native Ameri-
cans,n and declared himself ready to ego as faI
as the farthest in the cause" This does not come
unexpectedly upon us. The Native American
party is a sucker from the parent federal stem
and as such we have always viewed it. In refer
ring to the Native party, Mr. W. said: 81 will &C
as far as the farhest in the cause. He said that
