New YoRK--The town elections in New

the result is auspicious of Republican sue
cess in November. The Buffalo Express
thus sums up:
"Competo returns of the town elections
of the State for the present year, show the
election of $40 Republican Supervisors,
against 2l7 of all others. In 1859 there
were 40 Republicans and 257 all others.
In 1858, 436 Republicans and 225 all 9th
ers. These figures indicate that the growth
of Republcanism in New York has been
healthy and steady. Out of 727 Supervi-
sors the Republicans elect this year 5io.--
Surely with such demonstration of strength
upon the eve of Presidential campaign,
there can be little doubt of the position of
the Empire State next fall. Let whoever
may be the candidates, her vote will be
found on the side of Freedom"
