THE RESULT IN OUR STATE.

Almost every corrected or perfected return we re-
ceive from the interior of our State increases Gov
Fentons majority, which already nearly as large as it
was in 1864 and may be still further increased by the
fulofcia returns Yet so desperate the fight made
on him. and so ready we're his opponents TO trade
off any and everything else to gain Hoffman vote,
that we are confident that his colleagues State
ticket have considerably larger maortes We shall
not be surprised to find them averaging 10000.
The loss of three Representatives in Congress from
this City and Brooklyn is fully made up by the sue
cess of VIM H. ROBERTSON in the WestcheSter,
CHARLES II. VAN WICK in the Orange and THOMAS
CORNELL in the Ulster district so that we have 20 to
IL Representatives in thenex in tho present House.
of the islands the JohnsoniteS carry only Tho Albany
and Buffalo districts.
The State Senate was chosen last year, and is over
whelmingly with u.s. The Assembly last chosen is
decidedly Republican.
We hope to learn that the Constitutional COnyen-
ton is carried though we have few returns, and this
City has gone heavily against it.
The vote of Tuesday was very heavy. The bright,
clear day. coDSpred with the profound public interest
in the issue to secure this 1t the smile Of Heaven
that gave US the victory.

we reckon the choice of Gen. CHARLES G.. HALPIsE as

The defeat Of Hoffman went far TO insure this, but
the magnificent success Of Gen. Halpne renders II a
certainty But for the coincidence Of an absorbing
State contest, the whole ant-Ring County Ticket
would have been carried by majority Of thousands.
We must beat Brennan for Controller and greatly
improve our Common Council Yet this can only be
done by ignoring party politics and running upright
Independent Democrats distinctly and solely in the
interest Of Municipal Reform. lie who shall insist on
running Republican candidates as such will do SO IN
the interest and under the guidance Of 1.-THE King
The case is too plain TO need calculation.
We do not contend that no Republicans shall be
rum but only that none shall be so run as to enable
the peculators to say "They talk Reform, but they
only mean by it to put Republicans in place of Demo
Gratis" That is Just what we do not mean. We only
insist that the City shall be governed in the interest
of its tax payers for the benefit of its people Secure
this, and we are content that no Republican should
hold a Municipal office.
That Democrat for Controller must head the Re-
form ticket is palpabe. To nominate Republican
for this post is to the reelection OF Brennan
This must at all events be precuded
We have no candidate, and mean to have none, we
only insist that the fearful bunder of last Fall shall
not be repeated. The City might then have been
carried for reform; but its enemies then controlled
the Republican organization and were able to defeat
the effort. We trust it is otherwise now.
Men and brethren Reform can win now Every
thing cOnspires to insure it. The opportunity must
be improved to the utmost Let US oil resolve that ii

It appears from Gov. Swans speech yesterday,
that not only was the President ready to send United
States troops to Baltimore, but had given the Gov
ernor carte blanche to call them out. The Governor
wisely hcstated to use this power singuary dele
gated lest it might result in the Presidents impeach'
ment The Constitution of the United States, which
makes the President COMMANDMENTS Chief, gives him
no right to delegate his power to the Governor of any
State, and it is well for Mr.. Johnson that he did not
thus add to the catalogue of his offenscs.

Total.
The present Democratic strength in Congress is a.
not including Mr. Raymond (whose successor has
been elected by Democratic vote). Estimating
from the States which have voted, and the present
delegations of the remaining States the Copperhead
strength will be the same. At most, il will not
have gained beyond a. while the Radical majority
will be about 100.
Radical gain Of four Senators must also be taken
into account. Two Of them have lately been chosen
namely: the Hon. A. G. Cattell of New-Jersey and
the Hon. Fl. W. COrbett of Oregon. The new Legs-
lature Of Pennsylvania has to elect Radical Senator
in place of the Hon. Edgar Cowan, Democrat, and
that of ewJerSey to make the same amends by sup
plying the vacancy caused by the death Of the Hon.
William Wright. To these must be added the Hon.
Cornelius Cole of California, in place Of Senator
James A. McDougal. Should Colorado be admitted,
two more Radical Senators will be gained. We have
lost Senator in Maryland; 30 this leaves our gain
but four.
Radicals, and &c Democrats II will hereafter have
AZ Radicals against % Democrats, even should the
Maryland Legislature elect Gov. Swami TO succeed
Senator Cresswell. The present House stands l40
Radicals against a. Democrats. As reconstructed
the House will have l40 Radicals TO IL Democrats
At most the proportion Of Democrats and Republicans
will be about the same. As will DO seen, the gain Of
the late elections Is substantially in the Senate.

COSTLY WHITEUASH.

Our readers will remember that last Winter, Smith
Ely jr, Supervisor of this county preferred charges
Of fraud in building the new CoarHouse against his
colleagues in the Board. The Supervisors, thus ac-
cused, concluded TO try themselves before a commit
tee of thor own number; and although the charges
were subsantated TO the satisfaction Of the public,
the committee, as a matter Of course, came to the
unanimous conclusion that they were not only guilt
less of fraud but were really patterns of virtue We
are informed that tho expenses for legal services,
stenographic reports, &C. incurred in prosecuting the
charges did not amcun, in the aggregate TO more
than 5000. and paid by Supervisor Ely from his
private purse so that no charge was made against
the public treasury by the prosecution. We are,
therefore, somewhat surprised in learning from the
Controllers report that he has paid Sll,Oi 90 out OF
tho County funds for the expenses of The desnddnt'
including Counsellor Grams bill for profe isional SER
vices together with bills for printing, clerkhire and
refreshments. The committee held twelve meetings
only; 80 that appears that these SUPERVISOR charged
with guilt managed TO spend a thousand dollars a
day in withdrawing themselves. Some narrow
minded persons may perhaps, deem this little cx-
traysgant, but we cannot expect to have hrstolass
financiers to govern US without maintaining them
literally What sight could be more eIharating to
tax payer than the spectacle presented by these
Court House Supervisors while refreshing themselves
at Delmoncos, after their arduous and patu tic
labors on choice brands Of Burgundy costing 81 per
bottle and paid for by the Controller out of the
Couaty Treasury Who would not be SUPERVISOR
