The Elections.

We are pleasedto lay before
our readers much better news
than We had at the time of 60
ing TO press last week. We
have elected our candidate for
Governor by a majority OF
about three thousand. The
House and Senate are both
Democratic.
In Pennsylvania the Democ-
racy succeeded in electine
their Supreme Judge by a
small majority.
Indiana held no general
election for State officers, but
the returns show that she has
held her own nobly.
Iowa gives a majority Of 80,
900 for the Union ticket. The
Democratic cloud grows small

name of Gen. GRANT for Pres,
ident in 1868. The Young
Mems Union Club, of CClum.
bus, and the Republican Con-
vention of Maryland, have
each expressed their preference
for the hero of Vicksburg.-
Washington dispatches state
that the stock of all other can
didates is on the decline.
There appears now to be scarce
ly a doubt but he will be the
almost unanimous choice of
the Union party, and will again
lead US to vi,tory. All thro'
the war, when defeat met our
armies, GRANT was called upon
to reorganize the forces, and
he never failed in leading them
victory.

WE do not believe that any
proposition was ever submitted
to The people of Ohio that had
at its commencement as few
friends as had the late Man.
hood Suffrage Amendment 1t
was natural that it should
have. A race of men whom
we, by virtue of power and
numbers, had oppressed and
enslaved for two hundred years,
and desplsed because we did
enslave, were by its provisions
raised to the full rank of citi-
zens, and given the means of
self.defense. We say it had
but few friends, yet these few
were active and earnest. Con-
scious that they were in the
right, they took up the cause
Of the poor, despised negro,
meeting the people in fair, open
discussion, exposing the false
arguments of the Democratic
champions of prejudice and
oppression, and making friends
for the measure every day..
From the time it was decided
to submit the Amendment un-
til the very last ballot was cast
on the election day it marched
straight forward in public IA
vor, and we firmly believe that
if the people would have come
out as in days gone by,
and listened to arguments, the
measure would have carried. |
But their prejudices were so
deep they would not even al
low them to be exposed to ar.
gument. This is to be regretted.
1t leaves us just where We
commenced. The negro is
still IA disturbing element in
politics. He has occupied the
political arena for years, he
still occupies it, and he will
until We dare to do him justice.
The principles contained in
the Amendment have not
ceased their onward march
We firmly believe that the

day than it had before the elec-
ton; that those who were but
lukewarm in its behalf then,
are now its earnest advocates.
The very foundation of demo,

the issue, and in time it is

for having joined the Masonic
order, all appeal was taken to
the Presbytery. This body, by
a vote OF Is to 10, sustained
the appeal, and restored the
party appealing to thncom-

olution was also adopted that
the Presbytery, in so doing, did
not wish to express approba'
tion of the order of Masons, or
any other secret society.
