THE NEW YORK ELECTION.

4 y"
We publish the returns as rapidly as We receive
them. They arc, Of course, at FIRST vague and an
Official The ,ssyranbio wires stretch from Buffalo
to Albany, and thence eircui.ously through Con-
neeticut 10 Nav York; from New York 70 Phila-
delphia. thence TO Baltimore and thence to Wash
| iogton: hut the eonnexion betveen Phiadephia
and Baltimore bein. broken by the late storm, we
can only reeeiye them twice in the twenty -four
hours from R,lumorr- -beiuS dependant ON the
usual railroad routes from Philsaephia 10 Baltimore
As soon as ihev arrive at Baltimore in the evening
about O'Clock and in the night about TO- they are
transmitted by the wires TO Washington.
We shall wait patiently for the returns. We
may not be able 70 ascertain the result, until we
have returns from the distant counties of ~ York
which may not arrive before Sunday. Mean
time the signs are much less favorable To than
had been estimated by some OF our friends in the
State. II would seem that they had not sufficiently
calculated the extent Of the divisions which would
operate on the VOTE between the hunkers and BARN
burners. This is most strongly felt In Oneida,
where Mr.. Folks majority in 1914 was more than
| 100; and in Albany county, where anti-rentsm
| combines with hunkerism against Mr.. Wright and
where Mr. Chy's majority was only little more
than 100. Mr. Wright still more deeply feels
the influence Of the anti-renters in the anti-renI
counties Of Columbia, Delaware, Rensselaer,, and
Schoharie Whigery has not only coaleseed with
these clements but with the odds and ends of all Pot-
| icai eiiques, nom aoohnonism down TO na'ivism'
We shall be able to estimate the results however,
| more accurately in the course OF another day. We
may DC disappointed by The Ultimate result, but we
do not feel defeated. We never felt more confident
in our lives, that we have truth and principle on our
sldei and that we have only to display the energy
| which they inspire, and to reunile and rally the
democratic party in New York, TO recover any
ground we may have lost IN the Empire State.
We go for determined spirit and an energetic action
everywhere. In no event, can we feel any other i'm
pulse. We stand upon the ground Of right. No
administration has ever more anxiously or eff
GENTLY served the country, than the present-has
more boldly pursued the road of principle-adopted
more valuable measures--seryed the people with
more energy and efect-promoted the honor
and the rights of the nation in regard Of all
foreign nations, and its solid interests at home
and none is more entitled to the confidence Of free
people. In any event, therefore, whether we are
defeated or succeed in New York, the march of the
republican party is straight, direct, and ONWARD.
The New York Herald of Wednesday gives the
returns for county clerk; and Notwithstanding the
natives left their own candidate, and adopted the
whie ticket. MIR. Conner is elected county clerk by
about / 400 votes.
