It would be superfuous as wen as uncandid
to depreciate the extent Of the disaster which
the elections of Tuesday last have inflicted
on the Democratic cause. 1t would be equally
uncandid to deny that the result of those
elections is by no means encouraging to the
hopes which had been entertained of speedy
release of the country from Radical oppres-
sion and tyranny. We believe that the causes
of the Democratic defeat in Pennsylvania, In
diana and Ohio can be explained on suff-
GENTLY rational grounds-and to these causes
we shall take occasion to refer hereafter-but
no amount of explanation can disguise or OBJ
scure the fact that, as to those States, Demo
cratic success is hopeless. As they have
gone now. they will, in all probability, 60 in
November, and we should only delude our
selves with false hopes if we were to imagine
that the verdict now given will be set aside at
the presidential election. We may, therefore,
consider that the votes of those three States
win be cast for Grant If Pennsylvania and
Indiana had exhibited Democratic majority
on Tuesday the election of Seymour would
have been assured. If only Indiana had
voted for the Democracy, the chance
for q Democratic victory would still
have been fair, and we were
encouraged to hope, by information which
we deemed reliable, and by signs which
never, previously, had failed, that in Indiana
ana rennsyivan1a our ticket would besuccess-
full. Up to the recent elections the battle
ground of the election was in the North. 1t was
in the North that we expected to break the
Radical line, and to assert Democratic pre-
ponderance. The situation now is entirely
changed. The scene of the conflict is trans
ferred to the South. The South is the forlorn
hope of the Democratic party and of consti-
tutional liberty. We say this with clear
sense Of the importance of the statement;
and VIC earnestly implore our people to pom
der upon it and to act upon it. The situation
is full of peril, but it is not desperate. The
country and the government may yet be res
cued from the grasp of Radicalism if only the
people of the South awaken to full sense of
the responsibility which is now imposed on
them, and the Democratic party be willing to
stand by its doctrines and the solemn enuncia-
tons of its convention. In order that our
meaning may be clearly understood, we will
state the case as it now appears. The electoral
college consists of 317 votes. OF these 20 be-
long to the ten reconstructed and unrecon-
structed States, as follows

CoNGREss.-The recent elections in the
North have shown Democratic gains of con-
gressmen. In Pennsylvania the Democrats
gain three members, giving them nine and in
Ohio they gain three, giving them six. The
villainous gerrymandering to which Indiana
was subjected by the Republican Legislature
of 1867 prevents us from gaining anything
in that State. The Radicals, taking the vote
of 1866 ss basis, apportioned the districts
in such a manner as to take ten for themselves
and leave only one for the Democrats. 1t re-
quired considerable ingenuity; but they ac-
complished it on paper. The Democrats
have, therefore, done very well to elect three
members. Let us be sure that we elect none
but Democrats in the South, and we may
yet secure a Democratic Congress. I
The New Orleans crescent. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1866-1869, 1868-10-15

The New York Times and some other
quasi conservative Republican journals, well
aware of the odiousness of Radicalism, pre-
lend to believe that the party is much better
than the Radical extremists who have been
leading it, and that Grant is much better than
the party. Possibly SO, possibly not. Posi-
bly, Grants administration would be opposed
to the ruinous extremes Of a Radical Congress
and possibly not. At best, this argument to
catch supposed floating conservatism rests
on bare possibility whereas the condemna-
ton and final overthrow of Radicalism in all
its baleful forms would be expressed as pos
tive certainty by the election of Seymour
The fact is, whenever this class OF Republic
can journals argue for Grant on conservative
grounds, the logic of what they say is in
favor of the Democratic ticket. -- I

copy of the controllers report, embracing a
detailed statement of the receipts and ex-

his rights, instead of appealing to the .srooly

mandamus, and no appeal hes from their

INDIANA.-At the hour of writing, Indian
apolis dispatches claim Indiana for the DEM
ocrats by 1900 majority. This claim is based
on returns from thirty-seven counties, which
give a Democratic gain of over 1000 on the
vote of 1866, when the Republican majority
was $4,000, leaving forty-one countiesto be
