The Effect ON the Finances.

The results of the October elections have
been made more manifest in Wall street
than elsewhere. Business of all kinds
breathes freer now that it is absolutely Ger
tain there will be no change in the national
administration. The money articles of the
New York journals tell the story. Here are
extracts from one:
The magnificent Republican victories
Yesterday, in States which were strongly
contested, and whose Importance was ad-
mitted by all, have given assurance to the
financial world of the settlement of exist
ing questions without change of the party
intrusted with the government. President
Grants election to a second term is now as
reasonably sure as any future event can be,
and men of all shades OF political opinion
agree in welcoming this solution of difficult
ties, in the interest of the COuntry's trade,
commerce and Development, We may now
hope for the complete restoration OF conf
dence in all branches of business; a conf
dence which is backed by solid material
surplus supplies of cotton, provisions and
STABLES of ali kinds. The sud
den conversion of political doubt into the
certainty of victory for President Grants
administration impaired confident tone to
nearly all departments Of the stock ex-
change. The public funds are firm to the
close, allowing for the decline in gold, and
the currency skies issued to the Pacific rail-
roads have recovered nearly all of their
recent decline. In the list of speculative
stocks, the bearish people seemed to com
pete with the bulls for purchases, and the
market showed good deal of buoyancy.

The Liberal State Committee have issued
an address to the Liberals Of Missouri IN
which the recent elections are reviewed,
and much hope for the future expressed.
1t is claimed that all the Southern States,
excepting North and South Carolina and
Mississippi, will go for Greeley, giving. him
ninety-eight electoral votes. New York,
New Jersey, Connecticut, Indiana, Nevada
and Missouri are regarded as certain for
the Liberal ticket, giving eighty-three,
enough to elect. New Hampshire, Wiscon-
sin, Minnesota, California and Illinois, al
though doubtful, are considered almost Ger.
tain for Greeley; at least enough votes will
be obtained from them to render victory
in November sure.
