The Election Yeste rday.

While we feel that the national contest,
fought yesterday, did not result as we could
have most desired, we rest easy in the be-
lief that its issue has not been that which
we would have most deplored. If DOUGLAS
and Popular Sovereignty have been borne
down, BRECKENRIDGE and his Slave Code
have not triumphed. Reduced, as the can
vass was, by the insane greed and ambition
of the Southern ultraists to purely sec.
tional issue between the North and the
South, between Freedom and Slavery as
the normal condition of the Republic, our
hopes 90 hand in hand with our faith, that
the solemn decision has been recorded in
consonance with the original spirit of our
government, with the true genius of our
institutions, and with the better instincts of
our race.
This will be the legitimate import of the
decision yesterday, whether it shall result
that LINCOLN is elected by the people, or
not. The Northern vote for DOUGLASS
vast aggregate, and an expression potential
in ITSELF a vote radically opposed to all
the principles of the extreme slaveocracy.
This vote, joined to that for LINCOLN, while
it may not, and, as we think, should not,
settle the question in favor of Intervention
on the side of Freedom, does settle it, ire
versibly, against Intervention on the side of
Slavery. 1t is voice which will be heard
and needed for generation to come, speak
ing into silence and the grave those political
agitators who would destroy the govern.
ment and blacken our civilization. And
thus, though each true Northern man may
not have had his utmost desires accom-.
plished in the result of yesterday, each may
find food for consolation in the present, and
for hope in the future, of the Republic.

Ramsey Co unity.

The Republicans have elected the whole
of their Legislative ticket by very small
majorities, and the whole of their county
ticket excepting the County Commissioners
from the country precincts and the Second
Ward of the city. Mr.. JOHN SMITH, Of
Reserve Township, and Mr.. M. J. O'CoN.
NOR, of the Second Ward, have the honor
and satisfaction Of being the only Demo-
cratic nominees elected. The result was no
lesssurprising to Republicans than to Demo-
Gratis. 1t is useless to indulge in lamenta.
tions and examinations, when the cause of
defeat is only to be ascribed to imperfect
organization and the almost total neglect
of necessary canvassing of wards and pre-
cincts. ....i...
We republish, with some corrections and
additions, the result of the election in Ram.
sey county, as far as received:

The Presidential Election.

As yet we have received no details of the
result of the election on Tuesday. Private
dispatches were received, however, in this
city Wednesday afternoon, announcing that
all the free States of the Union, with the
exception Of New Jersey had gone for LIN
COLIN. Pennsylvania had given him an es.
timated majority Of sixty>fve thousand, and
the city of Philadelphia alone, a majority of
thirteen thousand !! The estimated majority
for LINCOLN in the State of New York was
fifty thousand, although the Fusion ticket
in the city Of New York received majori-
ty Of twenty-on thousand.
No information was received of the re-.
suit Of the election in any of the Southern
States. tas "' '''- |
So far as we have heard the result only
verrifes our anticipations, and we believe the
accounts received will prove to be substan.

tail of the several States. sf t:....

The State Election.

Without burdening our columns and
confusing the reader with fragmentary re-
turns, we may state in general terms that
the Republicans have carried their Legisla-
tive ticket in every district go far as heard
from at the hour of writing. In the Dem
ocratic stronghold, Scott county, they
have succeeded in electing Thomas
J. GALBRA1rH State Senator, by q
respectable majority, and in the Still
water District have elected j. K. RE1NER
over SOCRATES NELSON, although the latter
gentleman was far ahead of his ticket in
Saltwater. The Republicans have made
great gains where we least expected them,
and they will doubtless have large MAORI
ties in both Houses of the Legislature.

No Returns From the East.

The Telegraph Operator in this city de-
clined Tuesday evening to furnish the
Press with the Election Returns, claiming
that they were outside of the contract of
the Associated Press, and that the Press
here were not entitled to them, without an
extra payment being made. This payment
was fixed at fifty dollars. The publishers
of the PIONEER AND DEMOCRAT deeming this
price an extortion, and any proposed extra
charge violation of the implied contract
for newspaper dispatches, declined to pay
the extra demand.
We have been ever willing to be at any
reasonable expense, in furnishing late news,
and expected to pay the Telegraph Com
pany all reasonable demands; but if extra
charges are to be proposed on every occa-
sion of important news, we will be obliged
to have recourse again to the mails; and
we are confident Our subscribers will justify
the change, as being proper for us in a
business point OF view.
