THE RESULT YESTERDAY.

o,ronrc;ng the result Of the Presi-
"a, election, which we do this morning
.'', claiming the success of General
IL ,,o shall leave 10 some future occa-
v 80 discussion of the principles and in
S-, ,..s he is supposed to represent. Ac-
..-r;,y in this result, we have neither
,.n5i.position nor the time at this moment
=. ,,t,c- COMPLAINTS Of the manner IN which
canvass has been conducted by those
.ssrncJ its control. We shall not, how
,,1ov This contest aud the defeat of
49, democratic party to pass from the minds
'.' ,,.r readers, but shall place upon record
- evidences Of betrayal of trust as
III enable the party represented at the
W. York Convention 10 profit by the ex-
'~:crcc 50 dearly bought. 1t was with no
ssaasiticr to find fault, or 10 question the
..,'a~;,v Of those who differed with us in
go collection of our candidate, that we felt
..'red upon TO express our want of conf
,.9cc: but when We witnessed such total,
,r.ntoa. and inexcusable want of capacity
O., conducting campaign of this magni
mlc, We deemed it n duty to expose it.
The result which we chronicle to-day of
r., vote Of the State Of New York fully
,~,ycs that our worst apprehensions have
i.rn realized. The evidence Of treachery
:. Main. Ii will be seen that Hoffman
leads Governor Seymour by many votes !;
md the caution which we gave few days
AGO has been UNDECIDED. Tammany, with
nil Is corruptions, has triumphed, at the
expense of all party fcalty, and will now
.eycl in undisturbed possession Of the
spolls wrung from the overtaxed people Of
tie Empire State. With such an unequiVo-
al confession Of duplicity and treachery
s.. this result exhibits, we call upon the
Democrats and Conservatives of the country
IL scorn in the future all utilization with
these spoilsmen.
From he Baltimore Sun.
L in any event matter Of congratula
i'm that the interruption to the industry
md business Of the country which is gene
-.rv incident to the excitement and tur-
Mi Of q Presidential election has now
come to IN end, and that We may anticipate
for a time lull in the storm OF party strife.
There has been little since the war closed
but q struggle for party ascendarcy, to
which the consideration Of questions in
vlyinr great practical national interests
lave been subordinated and postponed.
<ay that the strife is over, these interests
NAV perhaps no longer be deferred to party
schemes, and an opportunity will be pre-
scented 10 recover what has been lost by de-
l.r. and to make the national welfare the SUI
irene subject Of consideration. We have
ne.ore observed that the more healthful
sentiment of the public mind in the direc-
i II Of conservatism was recognized in the
nomination Of both General Grant and Mr..
Seymour, and if this shall continue to be
deferred 10, the country has still reason to
be hopeful. The instincts and impulses Of
General Grant are believed to be conserya
i,c ami national, and If these are permit
:ei 70 shape and give tone TO his admins
tr4,:on, there will be no reason to " despair
q. tie republic"
From Forney's Chronicle.
r we should be asked to indicate in few
woods the significance Of their verdict, we
should say that it means this: 1t puts the
seal Of final and irrcvocable condemnation
aFoa the doctrines Of secession; it stops
any future attempt 10 destroy the Union ;
i Ironounces the funeral of slavery, and
Ngrjes all its incidents in the same grave
with i: and i; declares the eternal devo-
lioa Of the American people to those free
,,tncirles which our fathers adopted as
cardinal political truths.
From the Baltimore American.
We c0uscicutiously believe that the en-
ioacmcut Of these principles will bring
peace, happiuess, and prosperity to the
Sau,a 81 we'll as TO the North. They are
'.oal and national, and free from all those
.yctioual doctrines that led to rebellion, CT
I'll war, and bloodshed. To the South espe-
cal!v they will be the harbinger Of peace
and goodwill among all its inhabitants, and
vii! ultimately ohliterate the spirit Of ami
mostly that the war has left ranking il the
l-ans Of It's people. General Grant ex-
claimed "Let Us have peace" AID the peo-
l.e have cmphatically proclaimed 1--WE
Si! have peace"
What the people of the South have wanted
since the close Of the war has been steady
and strong hand to curb and keep in check
the Hamptons, FORESTS, Wises, and other
leaders Of the rebellion-the men who
ought forever to forfeit all right Of partici-
y4liGg in the National and State Govern
4euis. So long as they are permitted to
continue to " fire the southern heart
there will be no peace and no prosperity.
The election of General Grant is an en-
!hatic proclamation to these men that they
must abandon their efforts to sow dissolu-
ton and dscord, and that the reconstruc-
lion 0! these States must progress without
further Lindrance or interference.
