was SO treated by the entire party, inside and
outside.
Nor was any doubt as to the result con-
fessed. The World put down Pennsylvania
as safe by Is, 900 majority; and, at the last
moment the Washington Intelligencer ass 9rted,
on alleged special authority from Philadel-
phia, that "the Democratic leaders are entirely
confident of victory in the city and State"
The Ohio oracles were not less confident and
from Indiana the predictions were most posi-
tive. Reliance was, in every instance, placed
upon the power of the organized frauds which
had been contrived to overcome the genuine
expression of local feeling. So far as we
know, these appliance were worked to the
utmost Southern Indiana felt their force,
and Philadelphia suffered from their daring
and extent. Not single party stone was left
uDturned. Democrats of all grades worked as
for their political existence. "Never were
their ranks so full, }" the World of Wednesday
admits; "never was their battle fought more
gallantly."
And, after all, defeat has overwhelmed
them. The three States whose verdict was by
common consent regarded as the pledge and
foretaste of the November event have all pro-
nounced for Grant and peace, in tones that
admit of no misapprehension. Not for some
days vet will the fall details be ascertained
with precision. But the general result is
already unmistakable. By msjorities in
excess OF our auIlClpatlOnSi Lureo BrodL OtateS
have been placed in the Republican column,
with an assurance that these majorities will
be increased when the final effort shall be
made.
This glorious result has not been achieved
without work. The Republicans have in
many localities had to contend against a
superior organization, and in others with
lawlessness and wrong. They have fought,
therefore, against odds, with a result which
has been made possible by the potency of
sound principle and the unpurchaseable con-
viotions of loyal people. The magnitude Of
the interests at stake has been appreciated.
The merits of the struggle between Grant, the
representative of Unionism and law and peace,
and Blair, the representative of revolution and
anarchy-between Grant, the exponent of
national faith, and Seymour, the mouthpiece
of repudators-have been understood; and
the judgment recorded on Tuesday by three
States will three weeks hence be ratified by
the country.

ciples. 1t requires some greatness of soul to
act bold part In an unexpected crisis, when
everything hangs upon swift and courageous
decision. In this hour, when the party stands
with one foot over the brink OF peril, and the
other on the edge Of victory, the capacity of a
few men to form great resolution may shape
the destiny Of the country. "We speak as

The Late ElectiOns-F Their Satisfactory
Results.


From the ". T. Herald.
The results of the late elections in Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio, Indiana, and Nebraska, as far as
sscertained, appear to give very general salts
faction to the masses OF both parties. The
Republicans are somewhat disappointed in
some of their State majorities, but, whatever
the small figure to which Pennsylvania may
be whitfield down, they will be satisfied in
having secured that important State, because
its loss to the Democracy settles the Presi
dential contest against Seymour and Blair be-
yond all redemption. Thus assured of the
election of Grant and Colfax, the Republicans
are in very happy frame of mind: for they
had their doubts of Pennsylvania. the loss Of
which would have materially shaken their cal
culations, especially In reference to New York.
The Democrats in this section, on the other
hand, had given up Ohio, had almost given up
Indiana, and were prepared even for the loss
of Pennsylvania while making the most
desperate struggle ever known in the Com
monwealth to carry 1t. They had, in fact,
pretty generally, very soon after the Maine
election, come to the conclusion that 1t was all
up with Seymour. They are, therefore in-
clined to accept with philosophical resignation
the general results of these October elections
and especially In view of their gains to the
next Congress. From Philadelphia to the
western boundary OF Indiana the Republi-
cans fall far behind their splendid Congress
sional majorities OF 1866; and the reason for
this falling off, though repeatedly given in

Tuesdays Triumph.

From a.e N. y Tines
The significance of Tuesdays triumph is
attested by the prodigiOus efforts put forth by
the Democracy to prevent it. They have
planned and labored from the start under q
conviction that the contest in Pennsylvania,
Ohio, and Indiana would, in reality deter
mine the national issue in November. In
every estimate, two of the three States have
been included as essential to the election of a
Democratic President. The certainty of car
rying all three has been hardly affirmed by the
Democratic press, and the imperative neces-
sity of securing at least two they have not
attempted to conceal. North and West and
South, the supreme importance of carrying
Pennsylvania and Indiana has been admitted.
The Louisville Courier echoed the universal
sentiment of the party when it said, "It is
admitted on all sides that upon the result OF
these elections hangs the issue of the great
Presidential contest" Everywhere the feel
ing was the same. With the loss of these
States now, 1t was conceded, would end the
hope of victory next month.
To avert this result the Democratic party
has withheld neither labor nor money. II has
been unsparing in its use of men and unscru-
pulOus in its choice of weapons. The best
men in the Eastern ranks have been detailed
for service in Pennsylvania, and the greenbaek
doctrine has been preached through the length
and breadth of Indiana and Ohio. Shameless
frauds have been resorted to in all the States
The naturalization business has been pushed
with q recklessness and daring which Tam
many never rivAlled. Kentucky Rebels colo
hfzed in Southern Indiana, and hordes OF
ruffians we're imported to do voting service in
Philadelphia. Nothing that desperation could
suggest or knavery execute has been left un-
tried. 1t was to be decisive struggle, and

Mrs VICToR's CAsE.-The trial of Mrs.
Victor at Cleveland, for poisoning her brother,
VIM. Parquet has resulted in verdict of gull
ty of murder in the first degree, as charged in
the Indictment"
BY the testimony it was shown that during
his life time she had managed to appropriate
most of the property of the deceased, and had
procured several policies of insurance on his
life, some of them fraudulently, all amounting
to three or four thousand dollars, which she
endcavored to secure, with ali his personal eff
fects. She had sister living in Cleveland, who
gave testimony against her.
The trial has been long and the defense ably
conducted, and though there is motion for a
new trial, it is hardly probable will be grant
ed, and not likely to produce different result
