Perhaps NO set of men were ever more
astonished at the result ofan election than
the Butternuts of Washington county, Pa.
They calculated with the utmost conf
dence on carrying the cOunty by several
hundred. The Union men tacitly conceded
such result up to within q very few days
of the election. Those few days however
were, contrary to the general workings Of
all exciting campaigns, days of gain and
loss. Union meetings were held at the
small places, as at West Alexander, and
great crowds came out and heard the is
sues to be decided presented in their true
and solemn light. The people were i'm
pressed with the fact that twas a fearful
thing in this crisis to risk a vote against
the country. No man wanted to be an in-
strumeut in the success of the rebellion.-
Hence the great change BY which Wash
ingtou county instead of going Butternpt
went Union by nearly or quite 400 ma
jority.

The recent election in Ohio must be
studied by the light of the figures in order
to arrive at proper application of iis
magnificent results. Take for instance our
neighbor, the county of Belmont. Itgave
Is majority for Brough. On it's face that
majority looks small and as nothing to
boast of. But look at the gain, the in.
credible change. In 1862, just one year
ago this fall, Belmont county gave what
was called the Democratic ticket q MAORI
ty of s5s Votes. So that the change aud
the gain for the Union ticket is ten hHn.
drsd and t,Oenty-eight. Think ofthat in th'
short space of one year. i5A4
In our other neighbor, Harrison county
the Union gain was JiUs huHdred and thir'
teen. In Monroe it was upwards Of five
hundred. In Guernsey it was four hun
dred and ninety -four. In Hamilton county
Coiucinuati) it was nine thousand one hun
dred and tspenty eight.
Nearly every county in the State shows
gains of like character. Last night we
had dispatch from Cincinnati saying that
Brough's majority In the counties heard
