TIE GENERAL RESULT.

From the World.
Abraham Lincoln is without any doubt re-
elected President of the United States. The
Democrats have made splendid fight, and are
only very little behind their opponents In most
OF the States; but tdat little i enough We are
sumo the hepnbiiCaus have certainly carried the
Iolo"inG States, IN addition TO all Of New Ens-
land -
Ohio, Indiana
ILLINOIS,, Michigan,
Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Iowa Kansas
Malyaud, West Virginia.
The States we think nerd Mcclellan has
,csrtainly carried are the fUlluwing:-
New York, New Jersey,
Kentucky, Missouri.
The S ates in doubt are
P,nnsy lyauia, Delaware
Caliies bia, Oregon.
NevSds
All The doubtful States are more likely 70 be
Lincoln than Nj Clellan
good deal of interest attaches to the State of
New YORK, but We apprehend there is no reason
able doubt that IL has been carried for Mct,el IN
and Sel moW by something over 5000 majority
We are beaten Of beaten at all) in New ullnp-
shire, Connecticui, Pennsyl lvauil Delaware
Mlchigan, and Wisconsin by very small m tiD.i-
ties. There Is a hare hope that we NAV ave
carried Illinois. We have only heard fir IN chi
cagO aud BeiRhboIbOOd, where reign of terror
Was lDhuguTated Just previous u the election
The rest OF the Safe may not have been affected
by II, but sill the probabilities are that il mas
gone for Lincoln.
Now York city poIlcd ll0,307 votes of which
McCleilan received 73 $50 aud Iincoln 3BGll
We lot some 5000 votes by the neglect of Com
