The State EieciiOn-The Overthrow Of Radi-
caIism.
The returns of yesterdays election, received
up to the hour of publication this morning,
are sufficient to show that the State has been
carried by the democrats by majority pro-
badly larger than that obtained by Governor
Fenon one year ago. The radicals who con-
trolled the republican nominating convention
chose to exclude from their councils the con-
sentative element of their party and to 60
before the people on the issues of negro
supremacy and national bank oligarchy
and the people Of New York, like those of Cali
fornia, Ohio and Pennsylvania, have repudi-
ated them and rendered an emphatic verdict
against their violent, revolutionary policy
In this city, the great commercial centre Of
The Union, the majority against radicalsm
amounts to over sixty-one thousand, although
the radical press and politicians exerted their
Utmost energies to avert such q result. New
York, with her large financial interests, de-
clares against the party of debt and tixation
and rebukes the attempt to place the Southern
States Of the Union under the heel Of African
barbarism The false cry of fraudulent regis
tration, the free use Of money, tho presence
and influence of the Governor of the State, and
the efforts of all the political commissions
forced upon the city by republican legislation,
were powerless to prevent this Waterloo
defeat. A vote Of about twenty-five
thousand, in poll of one hundred and
twelve thousand, is all that the national banks,
the State administration and the political com
missions, including the Police and Fire Depart
mens, can muster for the radical negro su-
premacy faction in the great metropolis of
New York. With these figures before the
people it will be useless for the radical organs
to raise the cry OF illegal voting, rum infu-
ence, apathy, or anything else, TO account for
their terrible overthrow. The fact is now es-
tablshed beyond controversy that the citizens
of the loyal States, and especially Of tho city
of New York, repudiate the financial and re-
construction policy Of Congress, aud demand
a change.
The decision Of New York state In this
years contest has been looked for with
anxiety all over the Union. II has been
generally admitted that her vote would de-
eide tho complexion Of the next Presidential
campaign; and the loss Of the State by the
republicans will be more effcctual than the
fifty thousand radical falling of in Ohio, in
finally disposing Of Mr.. Chase aud bis national
bank and negro supremacy platform. Ever
since the wa with the exception Of The elec-
lion of Horatio Seymour under the temporary
reaction Of 1862, the State Of New York has
voted steadily on the side of the republican
party, and her verdict now Is against
the revolutionary policy Of the radical
Congress, rather than an endorsement
Of the democracy. 1t is triumph OF the con-
sentative sentiment of the country which last
year endorsed the constitutional amendment
as final settlement Of the question OF recon
struction, and now rebukes and repudiates
those who, disregarding the popular voice, re-
opened the agitation for the purpose Of forcing
negro rule upon the South and securing
Y ln1a IF s,,t l,n AZ
ment 1t Is a Bnal and emphatic declaration
that the people will mol suffer the government
Of the United States to pass into the hands OF
tho violent men whose principles are en-
bodied in the policy Of the present Congress,
and that tho republican party must discard
such leaders If II hopes to retain the power IL
has enjoyed for the past seven years,
