The EIeenon in New YorIs.

The bold strategetic move of the New
York Democracy, by which they so sud
denly abandoned all their old positions
and made a desperate attempt to possess
themselves of the ground held by the
Union party and capture President john
son, seemed at first about to result in
success at the polls. The World and
kindred organs of that party in New
York were for a time exceedingly jubi-
liant and hopeful. But since the Ohio,
Iowa and Pennsylvania elections the pros
pect has changed and the sky looks very
dark to Democratic politicians. Iowa has
repudiated a movement almost precisely
similar to the Democratic strategy in New
York by a majority of twenty thousand.
Ohio, in spite of the Encouragement
which General Cox's letter gave to the
radical half of the Union party, hassgiven
a home majority against the Democrats
larger than it gave last year against Nc
Clellan. To crown all, Pennsylvania has
renewed her support of the Union party
BY a larger majority than she has given at
any election since that party was organ
lied. These facts show the temper of the
people, and augur i'll for the success of the
New York Democrats, even though they
may clothe themselves in the uniform of
Unionists.

The j,


A Washington special to the New York
Tribune says:
During the interview, on Friday, be-
tween the President and the South Caro-
lima delegation, he said, that if treason has
been committed, there ought to be some
test by the highest tribunal as to the pow
er of the government to punish the crime,
in order to assert the vindication of the
government and the Constitution, even if
the Executive clemency should thereafter
be exercised. This repetition ofhis inten-
ton certainly does not comport with the
assertions of at least one newspaper cor
respondent (which have been extern
sively published), that "the President has
no idea of bringing Jefferson Davis to
trial. The delay has certainly not been
the fault of the Administration nor is
there any reason to believe that the de-
sired test has been abandoned. 1t is
known that it is the business of the Judi
ciary, and not of the Executive, to initiate
proceedings in the premises; but there is
a difference of views among jurists, and
the opinion has been advanced that, in the
present unsettled condition of the South
ern States, which are still under martial
law, in one of which the trial would have
to take place, no general peace having
been proclaimed, additional legislation by
Congress may become necessary; and fur
ther, there would not be time enough be-
tween now and the first Monday of De-
cember to try the case, for at that period
the Justices of the Supreme Cont of the
United States will commence their regular
term at the Capitol. Whatever may be
the ultimate disposition of Jefferson Davis
and others, this appears to be the present
condition of the important subject.
1t will be recollected that during the
Conspiracy Trial, two printers, employed
in the Office of the Selma Dispatch, testi-
fed that George W. Gale was the author
of an advertisement which appeared in
the Dispatch, soliciting contribution to the
amount of 81, OOO, 600, with which to Sc
cure the assassination of President Lin
coin and certain members of his Cabinet.
Gale was in Washington when the testi-
mony was given, and had engaged counsel
to conduct his case, in the event of his
trial in Washington. But he was removed
South, where he has ever since been con-
fined. Recently the President ordered
that he be transferred to a civil, instead of
a military, court for trial, in Alabama.
