A glance at these figures shows that a COM
parison of the votes of the State in 1854 and
1866 reveals the fact that the radicals lost
ii 900 votes, while the Democrats gained
1000, clear evidence that the votes lost by
the former were given to the latter. It needs
but little calculation to demonstrate that
proportiOnate gain at the coming election viii
RESULT in Democratic victory, which, taking
into consideration the detestable platform
adopted by the radicals and the personal
weakness Of their candidate for Governor, is
by no means the impossibility that the radical
press would have us believe. sG aaHs,a isltg

In Iowa full State ticket is 70 be chosen.
The radical majority in this State for the past
three years has been so overwhelming that il
can hardly he expected that it will be over
come at the approaching election. Yet it can
and probably will be materially reduced, un-
less the reaction in public sentiment which is
so manifest in New England and California be
not felt in this far Western State.
The facts and figures which are presented
above afford great encouragement to the CON
servatives in the States of Pennsylvania, Ohio,
and Iowa. One week of the campaign re-
mains. Let them use every hour of it to the
best advantage in the full assurance that a
glad reward will await them when the polls
shall be closed and the returns counted. The
tide of radicalism is stayed, and nothing but
the earnest efforts of conservatives are needed
to roll up counter-wave that will cheer the
hearts Of all who are working for oonstitu-
tonal principles, true liberty, and the right.

next election which will not be Observable
elsewhere. Here the Republican Convention,
in the hands of Governor Fenton and his
friends, refused to admit into their body the
delegates of the conservative branch of the
party in this city, representing the Seward and
Morgan division, and treated a resolution to
afford them an opportunity to be heard in
defense of their rights in the organization with
marked indignity and contempt. The Repub-
lcans, thus summarily rejected and insulted,
very reasonably believe that they have a right
to resent the injustice done them, and are
organizing powerful and important opposi-
tion to the nominees of the Syracuse Conven-
tion, which will probably control fifty or sixty
thousand votes in the State. The extent and
strength OF this detection may be gathered
from the fact that all the daily and weekly
newspapers published in this city, with the
exception of two-the Tribune and the Dispatch
have virtually arrayed themselves against
the radicals, while last year the whole Repub
lican press was unit in support of the party
candidates. This will make one of the most
formidable oppositions ever organized against
the radical ticket. Last year Mr. Seward pre-
dicted that the radical nominees would be
defeated in New York by forty thousand votes.
He probably only made mistake of one year
in his calculation, for it now appears certain
that the Syracuse ticket will be beaten in the
State by at least that majority.
The result of the election this fall is, in fact
life or death to Seward, Morgan, and their
friends in this State. If the FentOn radicals
after shutting the conservatives finally out of
the organization, can keep up their vote in
this city, there will be no chance of the re-
jected faction obtaining any recognition from
the next Republican National Convention.
The Seward Republicans will all be excluded,
and Fenton and his "young radicals" will
walk over the track. The only hope or chance
for the former is to defeat every distinctive
candidate that the radicals may put up for
any Office, and nearly wipe out the whole Re-
publican vote on the State ticket in this city.
They should not seek any union with the
Democrats, for that would be fatal to them.
Let them cast their votes as an independent
party, who, having been excluded from the
Syracuse Convention, are in no manner bound
by its actions and then if they give the
radicals an overwhelming defeat, they will be
in condition next year TO make their own
terms, and check the career of those who are
rapidly driving the country into all manner
of difficulties and dangers by their violent,
Incorporate, and reckless policy.

The Southern Injections.

RTOHt HtS NJ Il. Times.
We shall soon be enabled to Judge of the
probabilities of reconstruction under the law
as 1t stands. The Louisiana election for dele
gates to the Convention to frame a Constitn-
tion and civil government for the STATE tool,
place on Friday and Saturday. Today
and the two succeeding days similar prooeei-
ing VIII be held in Alabama; and later in the
month Virginia and Georgia will follow in the
same STEP In each case there is more or less
chance Of failure. For, though there is no
Likelihood OF the rejection, by a majority of
votes, Of the preliminary measure ordered by
Congress, there is at least a possibility that Il
may % ior the moment frustrated by indiffer-
ence or other causes. The law requires not
merely that majority of the votes cast shall
be in favor OF Convention but that the num-
Der OF votes shall constitute majority Of the
entire number registered. Contingencies may
therefore arise which, while not directly defeat
ing the project OF Convention, may indirectly
produce that result. -
