Election.
The oiicinl vote otthe county will be found il
another column. Our Butternut friends have moth

State they have done better, though we are not

70 give them the State and some IA or Is Of
the o members Of Congress, which is nearly
doubling their vote 10 the lower houses of the
Eaiional Legslst ure, the members elected to
Che present Congress ss Democrats being 8.
Garfield, Schenck 10 place Of the Infamous Val.
landighsm, Ashley and Spauldiug, are elected.
Several Of the butternuts claimed 10 be elect
ed on very email majority aud Cox is said to
have sarrisdIhis district BY pOlpAOle fraud. Some
Of these msy be counted out, and Cox's seat

however, IN the best view Of the case, Is bad

We can poirt 10 with pride, that while the Uuiop
HeR we're giving iheir time aud money to the
work offecruitug, the Democracy were employ
jng beth 10 perIeeting tie organization Of their
party. The War, and the agencies for itspros-
eealion, were secondary with them. They
were willing TO let the Union slide" if they
ecu'l only carry the election Indeed many Of
them, we do1bt not, would deem Rebel VIC
tory Just now godsend, as it would give them
en- additional argument for change.
Another cause OF this result may be traced 10
the appatby and apparent indispostion Of ouI
commanders, TO conduct the war with greater
vigor, and to mike the great outlay to which
the country is subjected more productive Of re-
suits. and afording encouragement that the
drain ron the resources Of government Is not
TO become continuous and indefinite.
It will thus be seen that the ValIen jgban
iuauence though overaid in his district, is tr..
umphant in tho State Tho Woods Of New
York are struggling for the same result in that
State, and il success follows their efforts rebel

Democratic masses do not. perhaps mean TO en-
eOursge the Rebels but the leaders DO, aud i
is their purpose that tells.
1t is now certain that tie Cuion War party

Representatives in Congress appear to stand 6

vote in two Districts (Cofnxs and MitchelIs)
is close, aud we may have lost one of them, but
probably not 4 Democrats were elected to the
present Congress. The Senate is Republican
