THE UPRISING OF NEB. YORK.


host for some time past, are exceedingly anX-
ious to bury the Republican party this Fall,
so that il may need and seek their help to dig
it up next year. To this end they are filling
the air with raven crOakings and dOlcful prog
nostications Thus The Commercial AdCertiSer
chuclles over the announcement that Gov.
Seward said recently at Auburn that the Re-
pubcans would lose New-Yor this Fall-just
as if he had not publicly predicted Cat Niagara
Falls) that we would be beaten last Fall by
10000 majority-just as though he had not pre-
dicted everything that did not come to pass
for the last six or seven years. The ". J. Times
copies from The Nation prophecy that the
Democratic State ticket is "tolerably certain"
to be elected by from 1000 to $1,000 majority,
"unless some unexpected change should occur
"before the election" And SO it goes, all over
We tell these seers of evil, whose wish is
father to their thought that a change" which
seems to be unexpected by them, not only
,riU occur but is already occurring. That
change is the arOusug of the Republicans OF
New-York to do their whole duty in the pend
ing canvass The list of meetings advertised
from day to day in our columns indicates the
popular carnestneSs and activity. The Repub-
leans of New-Yorl know that they have
majority of the legal voters; they know that
they can only be beaten by their own apathy;
and they have resolved not to be beaten. To
organize so as to provide for drawing out their
full vote is all that is required of them; and
this they mean faithfully, resolutely to do.
Having done this. they are confident that
victory will crown their efforts. The guerillas,
who are here to-day and there tomorrow, can
at the worst, but vote against us and this
they did last Fall yet we beat orr regular
and irregular opponents united by 1890
majority. They can't hate anybody we are
running this Fall so bitterly as they hated Gov.
Fenton, whom we elected over them then. They
have gained no strength since then; while we
can name hundreds of strong men who went
last year for Hoffman and are now supporting
the Republican ticket. II they could keep
thirteen per cent of our voters away from the
polls, they might beat us by our own default as
they have elected Sharswood in Pennsylvania
by less than 1000 majority. But the Repub-
licans, forewarned, are forearmed against that
oversight
Ui,.;, ,,o.4 oNoc.;yc vvaouor ie Diatrrct They
whisper in the ears of Republicans, Your
friends in other sections are asleep They
use such chameleons as The Times, Tile Com
merciaI, &C., for the concoction and utterance
of disOrganizing, paralyzing paragraphs, to be
difused over the State through the columns OF
their acknowledged organs If they can make
the West believe that the Republicans are dis
heartened, supine, inert, at the East, and 50 of
the North, the South, and the Center, they may
achieve the success they mediate.
We say, therefore, to the Republicans above
the Highlands, Do not distrust the scaboard
Counties. Even The Nation admits that we
shall be beaten 10000 less in this City and
Brooklyn than we were last year We firmly
believe it will be at least 10000 less. Our
County tickets are stropg. aud we are united
in their support Our adversaries are divided
and at loggerheads. They will thus be COM
PEELED to watch and counteract each others
Vaccinations, so that they cannot poll so many
illegal votes by thousands as they did last
year or in 1864. Mcclellan had 73,707 votes in
this City; for Hoffman last year this aggre-
gate was swelled by fraudulent naturalizations
and double voting to 8O,113 We are confident
that less than $1,000 legal voters were behind
either of these aggregates. Now Mozart and
Tammany will each cheat all it can but will be
obliged to watch, expose and defeat each
others attempts at cheating. We expect a gain
of 10000 to our side from this source alone.
Republicans of the Interior some bad local
candidates have been foisted upon you; we
do not ask you to support them-fGr other
wise. We exhort you not 10 vote for any
iobber or peculator, whether he has hitherto
stood without or within the bar of either
House. Don't stay sulkily at home because
there is such dead fly in the ointment but
come forward and help poke him out. Ii a
corrupt man has engineered a nomination, put
the name of a good man in his place and vote
the ticket thus purified and improved. You
will effect 10 good end by staying at home
ill no mo
mated and against the bad ones, you will soon
teach the latter to keep shady. They will be
