State, especially, they Till strain every nerve

and use every appliance TO win victory.
From the New York Journal of Commerce.
The State elections have disapp pointed both
parties. The Democrats are disappointed in
their hopes; the Republicans are relieved OF
their fears; for the defeat of one and the sue
cess of the other are beyond all reasonable an,
ticipations. Without waiting for tho official
count, the returns show that the Republicans
keep the power they acquired under MIR. Lln-
| coin. having neither gained or lost by the nom
nation of General Grant; while the Democrats
hold about the same relative position, having
conducted the campaign so as to WIN no acces-
s1ons from independent Conservatives. Hence
forth the opposition will struggle through the
remainder or the canvass with a heavier BUR
den: and tho dominant party will carry things
with a higher hand in the confident expectation
of a more decided triumph in November.
from the New York Times Kepu jlican.1
The three States whose verdict was by COM
| mon consent regarded as the pledge and Tore
taste Of the November event have all pronounc,
ed for Grant and peace, IN tones mat aonaie ot
no uisapprehensioh. Not for some days yet
/ will the full details be ascertalned with pre-
cision. Blu. the general result is already un-
mis;akable. By majorities in excess OF our an
ticipations, three great States have been placed
in the Republican column, with an assurance
that these majorities will be increased when
the final effort shall be made. The merits OF
the struggle between Grant, the representa-
tive of Unlonism and law and peace, and Blair,
the representative Of revolution and anarchy
between Grant the exponent OF national faith,
and Seymour, the mouthpiece of repudiators-
have been understood; and the Judgment re-
corded on Tuesday by three States will threo
weeks hence be ratified Dy the country.

cIent to elect him without including oil or most
ofthose above named. They had thus adrer-
tised their followers that they must Carry those
States in October or confess themselves AREA
dy beaten in the November struggle.
From the Boston Post, Dem.l
There is nothing for tho Democrats to des-
pair of. even if the three States which held
elections on Tuesday have gone against them:
The majorities at best must be small, ana
thew have been won by the Radicals, II won
at ALL only with tho most strenuous effort
backed by every possible appliance OF corrup,
tiou. The gain Of Congressman reported Ia nm
encouraging symptom Of the change that IS yet
to take place in the more numerous branch
of Congress. A stronger Democratic oppo-
sition is needed in that body above every,
thing. By that road we shall surely. travel
to place of safety. We are sure OF gam
of two Congressman in Pennsylvania, three IN
Ohio, and have prospect Of one in Indiana.
This is the re-: reaction Which is sieaGy got
ing on. The Radicals profess 20 lLllB saa'
Congress represents tho people, and the Presl-
dent does not; on thoir own theory, then, they
must admit that the people are condemning
their course and avowing their purpose to rev.
olutionize the character OF the body in which
Radicalism has set up its stronghold.
