The astounding returns from Penney yania, Ohio.
and Indiana have disappointed all parties. The demo
Gratis have been agreeaby disappointed They expected
10 carry all these States while few expected such large
msloriIies The wings have hoped 10 carry Pennsylya
MIA and OHIO, II not Indiana, and the blow has
down like thunderbolt from clear sky. Tue abo-
onists are aslounded al their complete humiliation
They are gone, hook and line, bob and sinker. II
will be hard work for Greeley 10 keep them organized
Mr.. Hale has been tossed in blanket. The march OF
the democratic party has been onward and irresistible.
notwithstanding the floods of wing documents which
have been printed in this city, and TO Washington
be ranked to all sections OF the country.
But II Is commended that these mere local operations
and that in November the wing party will rally and turn
two OF these States to Scott There is no rea-
son Tor this wild supposition. We have at Tammany
Hall The most authentic accounts that the has
been urged both sides with especial reference 10 the
presidency There less OF local issues than usual
IN State elections II proclaimed in The newspapers
and repeated on the stump, that all considerations
should be merged in The ranscendaut Importance OF The
national contest at very doors IL was direct is
sue between General Pierce and General Scottbetween
the democrats and the whiglhe and the favor
ed few The people have the conclusion that if
General Scott is good general it does not follow that he
is an able statesman. On the other hand they

thai he would surround himself with cabinet composed
OF The wisest and most experienced statesmen from all
sections OF the country, and that he would do equal JUS
ce TO ALL They consider that General Scott is in his
appropriate sphere the head OF the army and that he
do efficient and useful service in that capacity
than at the head OF The civil administration however
rounded. But they also have their misg wings that If
Scott should be elected he would feel compelled call
around him such politicians Governor Seward Sem
ator Chase, and Governor Johnston of Pennsylvania.
Their reasoning is powerful and just. II is
sense view. Seward, and Chase, and Johnston have
thought proper oppose the Compromise and TO den-
fy themselves with the abolition all
the country But they were also the most influential
agents in the nomination OF General Scott They had
right SO to do But their own fellow citizens OF Penn
sylvania Ohio, and New York have equal right to
decide their merits, and TO say whether they wish 10
see them in the cabinet
Ii is matter Of official record that each OF these gen.
emen is in favor of repeal of the fugitvesave law.
They have proclaimed il on The house-top and in the
ke-place Suppose that Gen Scott should be elected,
and invite them TO in his cabinet, and that they
should urge the Executive TO his influence in favor
OF repeal The whole country would be agilaed from
the centre to its remote exremtes. Agitation would be
the order OF the day, and the Union would be jeopardy
Hence the people OF Pennsylvania and OHIO have pro-
nounced against the sentiments of Johnston and Chase
and the people OF New York anxious pronounce
Gov. Seward.
In this connection, have word TO say about New
York. She has been claimed for Scott and Graham.
Nothing can be more visionary. In this city, in direct
and easy communication with all parts Of the State,
profess to know something about her general politics and
her present aspirations. The Empire State is deeply i'm
bued with democratic principles She has never given
wing State vote, excepting when there divisions in
The democratic party. These have not unirequenty oc
cured. Owing 10 these unhappy internal dissensions
the State gave her electoral Gen. Taylor instead

but by plurality Cass The majority of the voters
then opposed 10 Gen Ta or For four years SINCE
owing these internal dssensons the wings have had
the ascendency, with wing Executive AMI wing sena-
tors in Congress, and large proportion OF the House OF
Congress This is an unnatural state of things, and I'M
der any circumstances moi calculated last long The
democrats of this State perceive that they have been
false position In regard 10 their dearest interests
and have resolved 10 take right position, and vim
dictate themselves powerful party. The party is now
united.
Never was the democratic party OF New York more
thoroughly united than the present in favor OF

Tor Marcy. some Tor Dickinson, and so forth Other
things being equal individuals would have preferred their

than they all greed behind them all personal and
local predictions and go manuy for the dsing uished
Gov. Marcy and Mr. Dickinson, but all their personal
