H The next day after the cleo
tion, the copper democrats of Colum-
bus, being jubilent over the suppos-
ed election of Thurman, sent the
President dispatch announcing the
victory. He replied by thanking
them for the joyful information, and
concluded by-"Ged bless Ohio. =
We wonder where the President, and
the other Union men of Tennessee,
would have been, if, during the war,
they had looked to Thurman and his
like for aid, instesd ofte such as Gen.
Hayes. They would now have had
no home, and probably no heads
And yet, in view OF the past record
OF these men, the President congrat-
ulates the country upon the supposed
election of Thurman. How low
whiskey and bad heart, will sink q
man.

HItis now Known that Gen.

E 1t is now known that zen.
SHERMAN was called to Washington
with the view, on the part OF the
President, of placing him in the War
Office. But 1T seems that he refuses
to take any place that will put him in
antagonism to Gen. Grant. A tele-
gram to the Cincinnati Gazette, says:
There is no longer any doubt
whateyer that the President wanted
Gen. Sherman for the War Depart
ment. and that Sherman was found
utterly unwilling to take any position
that would place him in antagonism
to Grant, and would only do 50 un-
der a positive order from the Presi-
dent. Sherman's visit has shown
Mr.. johnson plainly that the Lieut..
General would probably be of as lit
tie use to him in any event as Grant.
1t is also reported,s in official circles,
that Sherman went SO far as to ex-
press himself strongly against Secre-
tary Stanton's suspension. oher-
mans own friends declare that he
could not be induced, by any con-
sideration, to run against Grant, II
the Republicans should nominate the
latter.

THE ELECTIONS.
The Result.
Quo.

The result in this State is better
than we anticipated last week. AS
the returns were then coming in,
they indicated the election of the
Democratic State ticket. But that
trial and disgrace is spared us. The
Union men have elected Gen. HAYES,
and the Whole State ticket, by a ma.
jority of over 5000. The Legislature
is Democratic. The Ssatesman says
that body viii be politically divided
as follows:
s'Senate-Republicans, seventeen;
Democrats, twenty-majority three.
House--Republicans, forty-seven;
Democrats, fifty -six-majsrity seven;
being on joint ballot Democratic
majority of ten members.
This insures a Democratic Sena-
tor in place Of Hon. B. F. WADE.
Vallandigham has announced him
self as a candidate since the election,
and, if the mass of the party are con-
suited, he will get it.
In the I'd Congressional district
Gen. CARY is elected to Congress, by
majority of over 1900.

This State, on the State ticket,
elected only Supreme Judge. The
Democratic candidate is elected by

SINDIANA.
The election in this State was only
for members of the Legislature and
county officers. The Republicans
have not only held their own, but in
many parts of the State have made
large gains. She will give General

President, an overwhelming ma
jerity.

The election in this State was fol
both State and local officers. The
! Union majority on the State ticket
will not be less than 10000, witt

GRANT for President next fall.
Taken altogether, the elections o
Tuesday week, are in no wise dis
eouraging to the Union organization
They have carried three out OF th'
four States, on the popular vote, ane

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER Z.
Election in Kenosha County,

This county failed in doing its duty on
Tuesday. The Republicans adopted an un-
usual policy for this county, during the
late political canvass. The party held no
public meetings, with perhaps some slight
exceptions; made 40 public demonstrations.
but kept quiet, trusting to the righteous
ness Of their cause for success, The result
was, that while the Republicans slept, the
enemy were busy in sowing tares. MANY
absurd and slanderous reports gained cur
rency and were believed by many, because
uncontradicted. Had there been public
meetings in the towDS, these false statements
might have hseE successfully exposed. The
story was industriously circulated in some
of the country towns, that Judge Van Wyck
was pledged to get the city Indebtedness
assumed by the County. 1t was
also told that the health of Judge
Van Wyck was in such prsca-
rious condition that he probably would not
live till the meeting of the Legislature.
Such are samples of Democratic eIectoueer-
ing. "a ds aa 9e&i5FS

New York Election.

The election in the State of New York,
has gone democratic by $4,000 or more.
The city of New York alone gave aobut
$4,000 democratic majority. Such ma
jority Of course could not be overcome in
the rural counties. Only think of that con.
glomerate mass of democracy in New York
city, giving 81, 900 majority; does any one
wonder that the city of New York, has been
for years past incapable Of self government.
The Legislature of the State were obliged
some years ago to take that great city under
guardianship. If the city were left entire
ly to govern itself, it would fall into anar.
chy and mob violence.

Virginia.

The progress of history reveals strange
facts, which the philosophy of no man ever
dreamed of five years ago. Virginia long
called the mother of States the land Of
the chivalry; once known the wide world
over, for the breeding of human chattles
for the southern market, has in the year
1867, recorded the verdict of its people, in
favor of loyal reconstruction on the basis
prescribed by Congress! That State whose
veryexistence only a fewlyears ago, seemed
interviewer with the Institution of Ameri-
canslavery; whose proud and overbearing
slave aristocracy, dictated laws to the Union,
should be among the first, of the revolted
States, through the sovereignty of the bal
lot box, to declare for the rights of Cypress
ed humanity, is one Of the remarkable events
of modern times. The prestige of wealth,
The Influence Of fashion and custom, have
given way, to the onward march of human
progress. ~aL :
A majority of more than Forty Thousand
of the voters of Virginia has been given for
the Convention to organize a State govern
ment under the provisions of the Congress
sionaI reconstruction acts. This cannot be
said to be the entire work Of the colored
population Of Virginia. The white prepon-
derance of men over the coIored in the
State, exceeds twenty thousand; nor have
moro than FIVE thousand of the white, been
DISTINGUISHED for high handed treason under
the reconstruction acts. The an-tislavery
truths once uttered by Thomas Jefferson liz
Virginia, were for many long years crushed
to the earth, but in the Providence of God
they are now destined to rise again, -anc
demonstrate to the world, that right mGst
prevail, because the 'eternaf years ART
Gods" Virginia will assume Its position
among the Republican States; what {
change; what a revolution in the affairs 81
people! Henceforth Virginia which EN-
bosolns the ashes of so many noble men il

public, consecrated their lives TO lnaepend

the Republicans have also large majority
in both branches of the legislature; but a
considerable proportion of them are anti

ly against prohibition.
