NEW YORK ELECTION.

NEW YORK ELECTION.
1t is not yet ascertained who is elected Governor
Of the State of New York. The leading candidates
are Messrs. SEYMOUR and CLARK. The latest re-
port we have from Albany is that 100000 votes
have been heard from, and that their summing up
places Mr. SEYMOUR l,76O votes ahead of Mr.
CLARK and Ia, 400 ahead of Mr.. ULLMANN. A
report from New York, on the contrary, places Mr..
CLARK ahead, and says that his election is highly
probable. Mr.. BRoksoN's vote is far behind the
other candidates We give the names and political
classification of all of them:
Horaio Seymour, Soft Democrat and Anti Temperance
Myron H. Clark, Whig Fusion, and Temperance.
Daniel UlmanD, Know-Nothing and National Whig
Greene G. Bronson Hard DEM and Anti Temperance.
A large majority of Wings are elected to the
State Legislature, which will have to elect United
States Senator.
FERNANDO WooD, the Anti-Temperance candi-
date, and the regular nominee of both the Hard
Soft sections Of the Democracy has been elected
Mayor of the city of New York.
The contest in New York is acknowledged on all
sides to have been extraordinary one, indicative
in very slight degree of the true condition Of par
ties 1t is evident that neither of the old divisions
maintained their integrity. Gov. SEYMOUR un-
questionaby drew to his support thousands who had
| no party sympathies with him, but who joined his
standard on account Of his opposition to prohibi
tory liquor law; and this embraced many who are
themselves temperate, but opposed to legal RENE
dies for what they deem an ineradicable evil Por-
tons of the Hard-Shell Democracy preferred him
to either Mr.. CLARK or Mr.. ULLMANN, and finding
Judge Bronson not within the range of success,
probably exchanged votes to secure Congressman of
their own creed. It is apparent, too, that large
bodies Of Wings did not vote for Mr. CLARK, either
because they disapproved his ultra antslayery SEN
timents or his too rigid temperance creed The vote
for Mr., ULLMANN was doubtless made up Of Know
Nothings from both parties and portions Of the Ma
tional Wings. This it appears to us, was the in
evitabe result Of the side issues introduced during
the canvass. The complications were too thick to
be overcome by the most adrot political tacticians.
and the decision leaves the public just as much in
the dark as ever as to the true strength Of parties
in New York upon national questions.
CONGRESsMEN ELECTED
We have reports of the results Of the election in
all the Congressional districts of New York. Except
one,) which we think may be generally relied upon.
comparison of these results with the present De
legation from that State will enable the reader to
discover the extent to which the Democrats have
suffered in this contest We therefore insert, in
parallel columns, list Of the Members of the pre-
sent Congress and of those elected to the next Con-
gress well from the State Of New York as Of the
other States which have held elections this week.
Democrats now have thirty weight members, it will be
seen that they have elected to the next Congress
only thirteen members, Gncuding the Anti-Ne-
braska Democrats.)
