The glorious result Of yesterday will
cheer the heart Of every loyal man. Chi
cago hss nohly redeemed herself, and TO-
day ahe proudly takes her rank among
loyal States. She has spoken In unmis-
taxable terms fur the Union and the Pre-
sideut's proclamation. We knew that de-
spite the treasonahlc rawlings Of the Times
and the vaporing and bluster Of the bogus
Democracy, her heart beat true to the
eternal and sacred principles Of liberty.
The last restige OF the Tory Democracy |
isswept away before the irresistible march
Of the frcemen Of Chicago. The Democ-
racy hcsitated at no unscrupulous tricks to |
carry the election They flooded the
wards with Illegal voters and counterfeit |
tickets. They deprived our gallant SOL
diers, 50 far as they we're able, Of the right
to vote. But the war men Of Chicago
stood shoulder to shoulder and fought the
battle like veterans. The result is the
complete success Of the Republican Union
ticket It was a. magnificent and ever
memorable triumph.
"Hove in" Sherman is hove out with
vengeance His defeat, and that Of the
tory Tamcs, is crushing, complete aud final.
Sherman carried the city last spring by
1,188 majority; he was beaten in the city
yesterday by over 400 majority. We
wish him grateful rcpose, with ample
opportunity to facilitate" the business Of
private life. The Democracy canvassed
the county and The city and claimed the
latter By / $50 majority, wlta which hand
some fgures they we're to offset the Union
majo1ities in the county towns. Their
theory vas very pretty but it crumbled be-
fore the hard logic Of facts.
God bc cprmsed. Chicago has redeemed
herself as We write, the streets arc re.
sounding with cheers and l1uzzas for tic
Eucccss Of tue ticket. That success, al
ready gigantic, will still roll up grca:e1
and greater as the returns from the count,
Towns shall conc in to-day. lii. Arnold:
minority must be very nearly 1000.
Glory enough for one day. GLORY
enough TO have wiped out Torylsm from
CUR midst Our gallant boys in the fell
will hail with delight the glorious news
Loyal men everywhere will look at Chi
Cago Us true to the traditions Of freedom

dcotial election. when 11 Lincoln received
Il majon'y Of II ,9oG in the State The re-

Changes in Army Chleftains.

The fact that Gen. Buell. has at last been re-
moved from the command of the Army OF Ken
lucky looks as though the war in that Depart.
ment was to be wugei vigorously He was
spared once and restored to the command because
the pro slavery Unonists Of Kentucky deemed
him essential to their programme Of carrying
on the war 10 as not to hurt the institution /;
but even they have at last become thoroughly
out Of patience with him The escape Of
Bragg with his army and immense supplies,
was too patent evidence Of Buel's incompetent
cy and Incidence to be longer concealed And
it's due to Kentucky Unionists to say that when
the war is brought to their own doors, and they
are made by bitter experience to feel the brutal
violence and the indIscrminate rayages OF the
rebel soldiery, they are as anxious for decisive
measures and vigorous action as the most ultra
radicals and thus they were made not only
willing but anxious to get rid of Buell., and to
have an active, fighting general, tho gallant
Rosecrans, take his place.
Ana with TINS change IN the W estern De-
partment come rumors of changes in the Army
of the Potomac, which indicate progress there
The Herald says that Gen Hooker IS to take the
command of that army and Mcclellan is to be
commanders while Ilalleck is to return
to the Western Department. Whether this is
wholly true or not, we, at least, hope it vii
prove correct 80 far as the Army in Virginia 4
concerned McClellan's delays since the battle
Of Antietam are entirely ccountable, anC
any change which takes him from the immedi
ate control of troops in the feldcan butadyanc'
the Union cause The country does not car,
that the armies should wait for the elections il
New York, or any where else, before making al
advance; and with Hooker in McCelan's plac,
the Army of tn Potomac would unqaestiona
bly, advance at once.

Republican party, than the Democratic party.
Aud when we aid all these influences to the
fact that the Republicans have, in many local.
ties, volunteered much more numerously than
the Democrats, we shall find reason to believe
that, IN fact, the great majority Of the voters Of

are substantially where they were one year ago,
in favor Of an unrclcnting prosecution Of the

and high moral worth is above suspicion, and who
enjoys the enyiable reputation Of being scrupulous-

The democratic vote has increased IS 900 since

The total vote of the State shows falling of

The above statement is not entirely clear. II

tolerably clear that the whole vote of the State
has increased 1000, instead of decreasing 49,.

preserved from oblivion, a mass OF historical, BIZ

be regarded as invaluable by the people of that

vigor and attractiyeness of style that cannot

English papers and speakers continue to make
American Affairs the chef topic of discussion,
Mr., Gladstone, the Chancellor of Exchequer, has
recently delivered 40 elaborate Grafton in which
he pronounced the JED Davis government an
established fact, for which he seemed very thank
full. And the Eaglish journals which have sym.
pathized with the rebels, appear very confident
in their belle that the American Republic is
hopelessly shattered. At the same time they
very wisely advise the crown not to recognize
the Conlederacy, as it might get England into
trouble. and not do the rebels any good. This
certainly looks like practical wisdom, and is
quito after the style of John Bull, who at pres
eut seems indispOsed to burn himself in getting
JEFF. DAVIS chestnuts out of the fire.
