NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY ELEc-
tgH TIONS


Both of these elections take place Tuesday
IL would be idle to speculate on the results IN New
York The prediction scarcely SO forth before
the reality follows IT, Yet we cannot bat indulge our
hopes Of triumphant result, il we may repose any
confidence in the accounts we receive by this morn
ng's mail A letter from Rochester Of the 9Th inst
says, ssThe political elements are sll in commolon.
We shall elect our governor, feel confident, by
handsome majority" A letter from the city of New
York, Of the 30th, remarks, "Thsre is considerable
excitement here at present in regard to the nomins-
tons and eleetsns- Our friends arc much split up
hero; but all the democrats ! have eonversed with
feel confident Of the success Of Mr.. Wright by a
large majority" et
We have cheering sign in the great democratic
county OF Onsid4. sdThe unfortunate schism between
the barn-burners and old huukers had threatened to
split the democrats to pieces a. the election The
federaists (pseudo whigs) had counted greatly upon
our divisions In that ancient stronghold but the hori
ron has just cleared up. "As we WRITE" says the
Utica Democrat Of Wednesday, ga HusparD GUNS
proclaim the UNION Of the DEMOCRACY Of
Oneida and their sUcoEss!"
The "Albany Atlas," of Thursday last, breaihes
the following animated language. II il be true, that
the feuds in our party are ain the deep bosom Of
the ocean buried, and that they are now firmly uni
ted in one common effort as they really united
in common principle, We may defy the whole
coslition Of ederalisls, abotoniss, naiivsts anti
rcsa~rs an,inasoss, and all the antics ia the Empire
State, to defeat the candidate Of the democratic
party;
II Il.
democratic VICTORY. The wisdom, the forbear-
ance, the patriotism of the democratic masses have
secured unity redoubled energy and animated, with
becoming spirit, the ranks OF our party as they
ter the contest. The democrats Of the State
victory within their reach, and they are determined
TO seize upon it. They the elements Of enduring
power within their grasp, and they are resolved that
no other hand shall reach them They appreciate
the magnitude of triumph now, and they will LET
no party feeling Of sectonality personality, debar
them from reaching IL and from sharing its honors
The lion-hearted democracy Of New York, the
whole democratic ranks in the first Senate district,
and in the second, are marching in powerful array,
ready TO roll up unprecedented majortes, and with
banners already inscribed with tokens Of democratic
victory In the northern range Of counties the de-
mocracy united and confident Of triumph. In the
west the friends Of the cause are animated with fresh
hopes at the evidence Of the iDroads made in the
ranks Of federalism. Along the southern tier Of
counties the best influences have lead to union,
and in union there is the assurance Of success
Here in the third district alone, where unscrupu-
lous resorts, duplicity, the abandonment Of party
obligations, and the inhammatory appeal to the
worst passions, have been unscrupulously ven
tured, there is a promise Of some Of its reward.
But here too, faction and coalition are destined to
reap iniqutous gains, which will fall short of their
purpose and their hopes Already the organs
Of the despairing are calling upon the west to
lift up their candidate. They turn from this quar-
ter to look there for the elements Of victory They
animate their followers by the assurance Of success
else W here, how recklessly uttered may be conec-
tured when they point to the city Of New York as
one source Of their strength
GAS they sink downward in despair they mount
in reckessness of boast, and in the grossness and
unscrupulousness Of assertion and OF trick and de-
vice. The tone of the Evening Journal here
is the confession of the weakness Of its party real
ized only when dishonest means, resorted to in the
hope of success, had degraded il and humiiated its
ranks. The faction which has nominated John
Young will fall In the approaching contest, under
defeat, TO degradation beyond retreval, but which,
with gambling reckessness they have courted, for
the desperate hazard ofa chance success
"That success is impossible, il the democracy but
move with the impulse they feel. to the contest
which opens before them. Let them organize for
that contest, Ret each feel the responsibility
Of individual exertion, TO secure the triumph which
the democracy of the Union ask our hands, Let
each democrat, Initiating the spirit Of sacrifice that
placed Silas Wright in our front ranks in the contest
Of 1874, and which won victory then, initiate it by
the spirit of self surrender by the yielding up Of all
personal considerations, and by the devotion Of his
entire energies to the cause Of democratic princi-
