The Rl,stIon The Result.


The election is over-ihe returns are
mostly in-to the astonishment OF everv
body who did not well understand the
Vaccinations of The Republicans, and TO the
deep regret OF every man who knows The
Interests OF and loves his country, Governor
CuRriS is reelected We regard it as lhe
greatest calamity that has ever befel he
people Of Pennsylvania, and if three years
hence he does not go out OF Office detesled
by almost every human being in the State
we will never again aiemptto form or give
an opinion on public affairs. SO FAR male
rial taxation and oppression have been
kept in abeyance, for prudential selfish rea-
SOUS. They can be withheld no longer, but
will be increased Incidentally. II the pso :
pie will il and bear it, all well-lel the ma
jority rule.
Yes, let the majority (whether real or ap
parent) RUE. II the vote in this State Tor
Governor is 10 be regarded as valid one,
then all the acts OF President LINCOLN, of
his Secretaries, and of Gov CURTIN and all
their declarations of intentions, stand ap-
proved and endorsed-then these men are
advised by competent authority to go on and
do such things as they have been doing, to
conduct all Governmental business in hat
way-to squander TO pile up National and
tax and TO draft. The people have willed ii
and we say 10 all Democrats, submit to their
verdict-look only TO the balIot-box for re-
dress. The tyrant is coming, his approach
is rapid-in the mean time be industrious,
frugal, moral and patriotic, husband all
your means for you will want them, help
the poor and lock up no green-backs That
is our advice.
How the election was carried for CURTIS
is explained to some extent by extracts
which We republish from other papers, and
will be the subject of future discussion =
Were we to characterize it, we might be
accused OF using harsh terms. But look !
Twenty 10 forty thousand brave troops--the
Republican potion but TO Democrats un.
less they agreed 10 vote for CURTIN-tsken
from brave MEADE-bosis OF Rebels, al once
upon this depletion as every body would
expect, pOunciug upon, defeating and al
most crushing the brave men left behind on
the defensive-the dead, the dying, the
wounded, upon those terrible fields--lhe
munitions lost, the treasures and territory
captured oy the enemy-all done TO re elect
CUkTIN by unfair means-and while the .e
ports OF consequent disaster are ringing in
&
with delight because OF the re election OF
ANDY CURTIN !! The future points only 10
taxation, oppression, draft, and contractors
chests filled with 'green backs p But, il is
said, the people have wiled ii, and maj
oriiy OF course are 'lhe people," Husband
your means, be frugal, industrious and very
careful. Though dark clouds hover over
our Nation, and especially over the sover
eigH State OF Pennsylvania DO not despair
-never-tme works wonderful changes,
and there is yet a balm in Gilead, Con in
Israel
The battle is literally drawn one. Two
years ago The Democrats had only six Sena-
tors, now they have sixteen. A the last
session the Republicans had a majority OF
two-lhrds in The Senate, now they have only
one OF majority The house is PRACTICAL
ly balanced, and the Republican Governor
is barely elected with all the frauds of the
powerful officials sustaining him. Be Of
good courage, the Democracy may yel save
the State and the Nation.
