The elections last week, everywhere, with few
exceptions, were a noble vindication of the Uncon-
ditional Union strength Of the people and proved
scatl,ing rebuke to every thing tiuged in the re-
motest degree with Coppcrhead procliyitios. The
great thunder Of last octobcr-so ostentstiously
chuckled over by the tory press Of the North-is
more than hushed in the harmonic measures with
which ruE PEOPLE tread to the emusic Of the
Unien." The people have eyinccd their dctermi-
nation to stand by our brave soldiers in the field
and never desert the cause Of our glorious Repub-
lie Let us recapitulate, and sum up the extent Of
our triumph. Away in

O'Neil Copperhead The Democrat says:
harder fought battle has never been contested
in this community, nor one in which the lines OF
separation have been more clearly defined.
The Republican Emancipation party, the party
which has triumphed in the election of its entire
ticket by large majorities, took high ground from
the aist ard has maintained it throughout. 1t an
nounced itself une4uiVocally in favor of the Pres
ident's policy, proclamation arming OF negroes and
all, and every one who has advocated its claims to
support has defended those measures. Not so our
advcrSaries.
The CONTEST Tas between the true friends of the
Administration, supporting the Administrations
measures, and its professed friends, repudating its
measures. The fact will scarcely be credited
ahr9ad hut il nevertheless the case, that with the
latter were numbered the great majority OF those
who, in this community, have lived and fattencd
upon the patronage which the Administration has
had to bestow The result is clear triumph of
principle. St. Louis has declared Enthusiastically in
favor of thorough policy of dealing with the re-
bellion. The President is iudOrsed. Mr.. Blair
and his followers, who have shown disposition to
court political favor from the enemy, have been re-
pEdi9tqd. 81, Louis is not only loyal city, but
radical anti slavery city.
" KENTUCKY.

INDIANA. a.
The township ele otions in this State have re-
suited in large gains for the Union cause.
Terre Haute The Union ticket was elected by
about 700 majority.

Kokomo went strong for the Union ON Monday
and so did the other towns in Howard county, Ind.
indianapolis has elected the Union ticket and re-
turns from all parts of Indiana show large Union
gains,
ono,
Cincinnati has done nobly. BY large maIorities
she has entombed her COpperhcads. The Union
majority is from 500 to 1000. The vote was large
in all the Wards, the test being made strictly
party one, and the Butternuts were beaten and
routed everywhere. The whole city administra-
ton the coming yearis Internationally for the war;
and the chief office in the ciys gift located in the
hands of one Of 0hio's most gallant Colones
Mayor Harris will make clean sweep of tho rub
bish and rowdyism that his predecessor Hatch has
associated with hi4 incun,benoy of the Mayoralty.
Cincinnati stands redeemed and her patriot sons
who have wrought this result deserve all praise.
Toledo The entire Union ticket was elected,
with the exception of Mayor. The test majority is
l35.
Chillicothe has made big gains for the Union
since last Fall. The GussHe, of that city, says:
The loyal, Unconditional Union men have elect
ed their candidate for City Marshal, City Solicitor,
and three out of the four COuncilmen. and barely
losing the fourth by only five votes, in what has
heretofore been the most reliably Democratic ward
IN the city,
The BptteInuts sEcceeded in re-elootng Mayor
Schaeter BY majority otqqly II votes, and he
would have been defeated with the rest had it not
been we'll known thar he refused to ndorse the
anti-war principles of the Huuernut leaders, This
was all that saved him. .E.
Now look at the change since the 18th day of
last October. Then the Buttemuts carried the
city by majority of 26l--carrying every ward in
the city by naiorues of from 28 to l2l; now they
elect the Mayor by only 80, and single council
man by barely five votes. And il is perfectly safe
to say that had the unconditional Union men be-
gan TO organize and work one week earlier than
they did, these insignificant maj0rtieS would also
have been overcome and The entire Union ticket
elected.
Springfeld-The Union men have gloriousy
triumphed. The new Council will stand-Union
