of thirteen Congressman, and in the Legisla-
ture there is a Democratic majority Of 56 on
joint ballot.
Tennessee-Greeleys majority is estimated
to be 5000. For Congressman-at-large May
nard is elected over Cheatham and Johnson
Returns so far received place johnson behind
either Of his competitors. Brown is elected
Governor by from 5000 to 5000.
Minnesota-Enough returns have been re-
ceived to show that the State has gone for
Grant by 10000. The whole Republican
State ticket was carried by an overwhelming
majority.
North Carolina-Grant's majority estima-
ted at 10000.
Pennsylvania gives Grant majority of
$4,000.
Texas votes the Greeley ticket, with four
Democratic to two Republican Congressman.
Virginia will give majority Of from 5000
to 5000 for Grant.
Georgia gives Greeley majority of from
5000 to 10000 and elects FIVE Democratic
Congressman and four Republicans.
In the States from which nearly complete
returns have been received, electing 2OS of
the 292 representatives in the next House,
the Republicans have majority of 1O2-a
net gain of 62. In the present House the
Republicans have majority of only 81. 1t
is quite probable that the House of Represen-
tatives will be composed Of 1872 Republicans
and 100 Democrats.

Mr.. Greeley's Defeat.

Mr.. Greeley's Defeat.
Mr.. Greeley has consolation in defeat
which cannot be enjoyed by every defeated
aspirant, and which is thus described by the
Tribune on the morning after the election:
"Nothing in this hour Of defeat gives us
more genuine satisfaction than the universal
approval of MIR. Greeley's course during the
canvass. We printed yesterday the judgment
of the leading Democratic journals Of the
country. Elsewhere We give the opinions OF
the leading evening papers here, and Of one
or two journals Of high standing in the Dem
ocratic party in other cities. Of the generous
and hearty tributes, public and private, from
Liberal Republican journals and statesmen,
we need not here speak. Mr.. Greeley has
made no bargains; he has sacrificed no prin.
ciple he has in no way compromised his self.
respect, or used doubtful utterances to win
votes. The politicians who feared his indis-
cretions are the first to bear testimony to his
wise prudence, and the enemies who sought
everywhere for weak spots in his armor are
the first to acknowledge that he has practiced
no concealments. The difficulties of his posi-
tion we're enormous, and next to the victory,
which was not to be attained, we rate the hon.
esty, dignity, and wisdom with which he passed
through them"

THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

The reelection of General Grant to a Sec
ond Presidential term seems to take no one
by surprise-the most ardent supporters of
the Liberal movement throughout the coun-
try avering that they we're prepared for the
result; while all parties who were opposed to
Grant, accept the result with that degree of
composure so characteristic of the American
people after the close of great and exciting
national political contest.
The Liberals, or Reformers, that is, those
of the Republicans who were opposed to the
administration of President Grant, with the
coalition of the Democracy, did their best for
what they conceived to be an honest purpose.
To them official patronage was not an incen-
tive, and consequently defeat is stripped Of
all the terrors and disappointments which on
the other hand awaited the opposite party.
The Liberals, though in respectable minor
ity-and, in fact, developing strength hard
ly to have been expected under all the sur
roundings-will pursue the even tenor of their
way just as they did before the election. They
feel that they have country to serve and its
true interests to Glove, cherish and obey" no
difference who may occupy the Presidential
chair. Constitutional liberty, the rights Of
the States, the purity ofgovernment, economy,
Justice and the law, must all be upheld in the
future, and the duty of all citizens is the
same now as ever.
To the people of the South, and especially
the people of our own State, it is Of greater
concern to look more closely to our own at:
fairs, do all we can to mend our broken for
tunes and heal domestic divisions, than to in
dulge in useless repinings and discomfort over
a result which seemed inevitable at the very
inception of the struggle.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1872-11-14

rapidly increased in Raleigh, N. c., though
not so much to the detriment of business as at
other points, those requiring the services of
teams having prepared in advance for the
emergency by providing oxen. Farmers in
the vicinity of Raleigh offer large prices for
city teams to transport their produce to mar
ket, fearing to expose their own animals to the
disease.
Speaking of the disease in Charleston, the
Ne,os says that "horse-owners fully realize the
fact that the epidemic is there, although prob
ably in less severe form than in the northern
cities The effects of the disease were evident
along East Bay, on Tuesday, in the accumula-
ton Of goods ready for shipment and the diff
fculty of procuring transportation. Several
of the merchants along that busy thorough
fare were forced to exercise their patience and
tax their ingenuity before the sidewalks were
relieved of the goods of every description that
blocked the way. Coughing horses were
plentiful, and the owners of horse and mule
flesh looked almost as mournful as their dumb
friends"
The disease is reported as far south as Al
bany, Georgia, at which place two deaths have
occurred

THE HORSE MALADY.

The horse disease continues to spread
through the South, while at the North it is
abating to some extent. On Saturday, Broad
way, New York, presented the usual appear
ance, and the car lines are fast resuming
travel. The mortality, however, among the
diseased animals still continues, which is ow-
ing, no doubt, to bad usage and over-work
after the attack Of the disease. A marked
improvement is reported in Boston and Pitts
burg. The disease has not assumed its Sc
verest type at any point south Of New York,
and it is thought, by careful management in
the South, it will exhaust itself in mild form.
The disease continues unabated in Albany
and Chicago, and mas increased in Cleveland.
In Chicago all the street cars were discon-
tinued on Saturday. The disease has appear
ed in Cincinnati, in which city large numbers
of the horses are affected. In Baltimore
transportation by horsepower has almost en-
tirely suspended, and the small number of
drays that are running command from $3.50
to $500 per load. Hand cars and wheel
barrows are numerous in the streets, mostly
confined to the oyster traffic. The Sun re-
ports one of the drivers in the employ Of the
City Railway Company as being confined to
his house under something so strongly resem-
bling the disease as to lead to the opinion
that he has contracted the "epzootic." This
is the first case reported among men.
In Richmond the disease is on the increase,
is mild in its form. AS far as prac-
ticable to do so, mules have been substituted
for horses, and it is stated that the mules have
been attacked. The ediseasehass spread rapidly
in Petersburg, Va, occasioning the usual in
convenience reported from other cities, which
is augmented by the difficulty in transporting
cotton on the streets, which is serious and an
moving to the merchants. The disease has

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN BOSTON.

The city of Boston has been visited with
confagration equaling in extent Of area des-
troyed, the terrible fire which occurred in
Chicago but little over year ago, while it is
asserted that the loss of property is equal to
twice the amount sustained by the sufferers of
the Chicago disaster. The loss at Chicago
was put down at one hundred millions, and
the statements which reach us from Boston
agree in placing the loss in s.,.city at two
hundred millions.
The first alarm was given about halfpast
Z o'clock on Saturday night last-the flames
originating in a granite wholesale dry-goods
house, situated on the corner of Sumner and
Kingston streets. The flames were first seen
on the roof, and rapidly communicated with
the buildings in the vicinity, all of which
were of granite and four stories high. But
despite their solid character they yielded to
the violence of the fiery assault, and in half
an hour one quarter of the city was in flames.
The fire ragged during the whole of satur-
day night and all day Sunday, when it
was checked at nightfall; but on Monday
morning it again broke out and destroyed a
large amount of property. The finest portion
of the city has been destroyed, embracing an
area of seventy acres, and thousands of people
reduced from wealth to poverty.
As far as can be ascertained from the &C.
counts received up to this time, besides the
residences destroyed, the loss is sustained prin-
cipally by the boot, shoe, leather and dry
goods business-Boston being the great dis
tributing point of the New England manu-
facturers Immense stocks of goods have
been destroyed, which will, to a great extent,
affect the mercantile interests Of the whole
country. A stringency in the money market
may be felt, if indeed, it does not produce a
financial crash and panic.
Already are we advised that the insurance
companies are succumbing, which will be an
element of loss to thousands who are not d.
rect sufferers by the fire. The President of
the Board of Underwriters at New York, es-
Inmates the insurance loss by the various COM
panies at s1OO, 100000. Whether this loss can
be sustained, end what will be the future re-
suits ofthis great disaster, remains to be seen.
