IMPORTANT UNION SUCCESSES.

telegraphc despatch published in the Integencer Of
yesterday announced that the position on Lookout
Mountain had been hanked rendering its evacuation
necessity The honor of the achievement is given TO the
Eleventh Ohio regiment under Col Stanley who feated
fifty pontoons down the Tennessee river in face of the
rebel sharpshooers landed at Browns Ferry and drove
the enemy from the ridge the south side about the same
time that Gen. Hazen with 1000 Of Gen. Pslmer,s dyi-
on attacked the rebels on Lookout Mountain and drove
them from their position. His less was only five killed
and fifteen wounded, Communication was thus secured
with Bridgeport along the Chattanooga river The fol-
lowing later despatch from Nashville confirms those i'm
portant successes:

THE NEW YORK QUOTA.

We observe that many of our New York con-
temporaries complain that the quota of troops as
sessed to be raised by that State, under the late
call of the President for three hundred thousand
men, is disproportionately large. As these COM
plants are apparently uttered without any very
definite knowledge as to the grounds on which they
are based, We have had the curiosity to institute
comparison between the quota of New York and
several other States, taking for our basis of calcu
lation the number of representatives and the
number of population in each State.
We find, indeed, that tried by these standards
the quota assigned to New York is in considerable
excess over that assigned to other States whose
quotas have become known to us through official
or other sources 1t is not to be doubted that this
rregularity has arisen from of enrolment in
the State of New York, where it ls already known
the lists have been swollen by the inaccurate re-
gistration of the arms bearing population. 1t will
be grievious hardship if these errors Of the en-
rolling officers should be held to saddle on the
State burden of military obligation greater than
that she is legally bound to sustain, and dspropor
tionately large as compared with other States.
In order that every reader may see for himself
the bases of the calculations from which we educe
the conclusion tnat the quota assignee 10 new 1orK
is excessive, we cite the figures giving the repre-
sentative population and the aggregate population
of the following States, together with the quota
assigned to each 1t is needless to say that if the
quotas have been correctly distributed among the
several States, they ought to bear something like
| a uniform ratio to the population of the States.
Instead of this, we find by the rule of proportion
that the ratio of New York is largely in excess
over that of other States.
Some of the quotas given in the following table
are derived from official publications, and others
are given on the authority of newspaper state

The New York Journals of both parties concede that the
election in that State has gone in favor Of the Republican
or Union ticket The majority 10 estimated at from
feent to twenty thousand votes Last year Governor
Seymours majority was ten thousand.
The falling off in the Democratic vote is the heaviest in
the city Of New York, where there was some division
among the party The votes in that city last year were
divided as follows: Democrats 543l2 and Republicans
2536 On Tuesday last the Democrats received AZ $40
and the Republicans 23,263; being Democratic loss OF
IL 100, and Republican gain Of 727. The decrease in the
aggregate vote Of the city is 10,645.

to show that besides carrying the candidates their State
ticket the Republicans will have amaority in both branches
of the Legislature.
