We refer our readers to the full
telegraphic reports for the election
returns received up to an early hour
this morning. They give US the
glorious assurance that ULYSSES S.
GRAFT and SCHUYLER CoLFAx are
the peoples choice by an overwhelm-
ing majority. At the late hour at
which we go to press we have not
time to comment at length upon
the result. Our returns from the.
South are very meagre, and indicate
that the Ku Klux Democracy, by
violence and intimidation, have car
ried several of the late rebellious
States. But we know the result suf-
ficiently in the North to be assured
OF success in almost every State, with
the single exception of New York.
We have some returns, more or
less complete, from every Northern
State except Oregon and Nevada.
Excluding these two and New York,
and Including Tennessee sand Mis-
sOuri, the electoral vote in the North
alone for GRANT and CoLFAx will be
1877; to which, if we add Nevada and
Oregon, which are pretty sure to go
for them, will make it 1913. The num-
Der of electoral votes necessary to
choice is 149. Their electoral vote
will certainly exceed 200.
