Of Course We Will.

The National american Of last week asks us,
very politely, to call the attention of our readers
to the elections lately held in Ohio, Pennsylva-
MIA, Vermont, Iowa, Indiana, Maine, Colorado
and the city of Baltimore. In compliance with
his request, we will notice them, in the order in
which we find them arranged
At the last election for Governor in Vermont,
Dillingham;, Radical, received 26,G7l votes, and
Davenport, Democrat, received l6, 442 votes, be-
ing Republican majority of 1920 votes. In
the year 1865, Dillingham;, Republican, received
1880, and Davenport, Democrat, received g.
S57 votes being Republican majority of 49,
a29 votes which makes clear Democratic gain,
in 1866, over the vote of 1866, of $500 votes.
In Pennsylvania Geary, Republican, for Cover
nor, received this year BOG, 955 votes, Clymer,
Democrat, received 289,O96 votes, being a ma
jority for Geary of II, 1876 votes while in 1865,
Hartcroft, Republican, for Auditor General, re-
ceived $4,000 votes of q majority, over Davis,
Democrat, which shows Democratic gain at the
last election, of 5, 1865 votes. Lncoln's majority
in Pennsylvania, over all Others, in 1860, was
59,6l8 votes, and in 1864, 2O,O75; while this
year, the Republican majority, as above stated,
is II, 1876, being steady Democratic gain, since
1860, of 42, 1873 votes. Clymer's vote this year,
is 10, 7sO greater than McClellan's vote OF 1864
There were, at the late election in Pennsylvu:.'
mia, more than 80, 900 votes rejected by the Abo-
lition judges, in direct violation of the decision
of the Supreme Court, delivered the past sum
'mer. From these figures and facts no one can
rightfully question the fact that there is to-day
a clear Democratic majority in that State, of at
least rs, 900 votes.
Next in order is Iowa, which gave Lincoln, in
1864, majority of 40, 223 votes, and this year
gives majority of about l6, 900 votes, which
shows Democratic gain, this year, over Lin
coins vote in 1864, of a. 223 votes; but suppose
we let them have it all their own way, they
say the majority is about 20, 900 votes then ac-
cording to their own showing, the Democratic
gain is 20,223, which does not look like the
State of Iowa will be Radical very long.
Next we come to Indiana, which gave Lincoln,
in 1864, 20, 1879 majority, and which gives this
year on the Congressional vote, according to the
latest advices, about 9, 900 Republican majority,
being Democratic gain this year OF IL 80 votes;
or suppose we let them have this State their own
way also, they put it down at about Is, OOO and
thereby themselves show Democratic gain of
$3.50.
Next in order is Ohio, which in 1868, gave
Brough, Republican, for Governor, 10l 900
votes majority, and in 1864, gave Lincoln 3d.
$50 votes majority, but in 1866 gives %, 81
Republican majority, being a Democratic gain on
the Governors election of 1868, of So, 1888 votes,
and on Lncoln's election, Democratic gain of
1925 votes.
In Maine, the Radical gain this year is between
five and six thousand, which, we suppose, is not
a matter Of surprise to anybody.
Our attention is next called to Colorado. but
as this State does not vote until the second Mon
day in November next, it is difficult for us to in
form our readers what her vote will be, unless
we should adopt the Radical plan of putting
down majorities before the election is held.
The Newark municipal election, on which
we are also called upon to give some information,
went in favor of the Abolitionsts last year, by
about 800 votes, and by about the same MAORI
ty this year both were local city elections, and
we know nothing of the local causes which ope-
rated upon either of them, whether the sewer in
the east end or west end was to be changed, nor
whether parties were politically divided on the
great and important questions or not
But the Baltimore municipal election-what
shall we say oft? We are told that Chapman
(Union,) was elected Mayor, by majority of o.
1858. Well, all we have to say about the matter
is, that he was not elected at all He received
2,s6s votes more than Mr.. Harvey, but think of
it, all ye lovers of law and order, and friends of
republican forms of government, that in the city
ofBaltimore, where there are 24,653 registered
voters, that under the ruling Of Radical Judges
of election, there were cast at the election for
Mayor, the present month, 1919 votes, all told.
OF this vote, Chapman, Radical, received 5,4O5
votes, and this is called an election. Now, as
there was no obstruction to Radical votes, they,
of course, voted their strength and so it is fair
topresume, they are in minority in the city of
poll about one-fourth of the registered vote of
Baltimore Of 49, 248 votes, or in other words they
the city. We have neither time nor space to
pursue this subject further but may refer to it
again.
