The New York Ucr0H has the follow
ng to say. in connection with the late
elections:
In 1865, Immediately after the Octo-
Der elections. there was II d"morali2iu9
movement here and at WASHINGTON
among the Democrats for Il change Of
base on their Presidential ticket for
November, and this movement. involv-
ing plea Of defeat with the ticket Of
seymour and Blair. seriously crippled
them in The election. No such dcmor-
aizing proposition this time for II
change OF base has been hintcd at in
reference to Greeley and Brown. On
the other hand. Democrats and Liberal
Republicans are evidently impressed
with the idc THAI from every view Of
honor and duty they are bound to do
their best to eject their Presidential
ticket. aud we cannot doubt that in eve
~ State they will do their best accord
ingly. II the administration party,
therefore. on the 9th Of November act
upon the idea That the issue of the cleo
ton is n lorcgonc conclusion. and thar
the election is going by default, they
may wake up on the 9th to find them
selves the victims Of IAN appalling DO
litlCal cala,trophc.'
For the race, il j. not always
To him who fastest runs.
Nor lie battle 10 those people
