A despatch to the Republican head
quarters, from the Hon. John B. Chaiiee
of Colorado, says the Republicans have
elected the Governor, and have a major
ity in the Legislature.
A special to the Brooklyn Eagle, from
Indianapolis, says the latest returns in
dictate a complete Democratic victory in
Colorado. The first counties heard from
were favorable to the Republicans, but
figures received later are all the other
way. The Democratic Committee of the
State claim a sweeping victory.
New YORK, October A private des-
patch received here to night from Denver,
Col, says there will be large reductions
in the majorities claimed by the Repub-
licans last night. Some of the counties
claimed by the Republicans went Demo
cratic. The Democrats are now confident
of 1000 majority on Governor and Con-
gressmen. The Senate is Democratic
beyond doubt. 1t will be two or three
days before the returns get in.

The Colorado Election.

The first State election of the new State
of Colorado, occurred last Tuesday The
result has been anticipated with much in
terest as the parties are known to be
nearly evenly divided, and the Legisla-
ture chosen at this time is to choose two
United States Senators and three Presi-
dental electors. At this date (Oct. Gth)
the results not positively known, although
there is but little doubt that the Republi-
cans have made clean sweep. The fol-
lowing telegraphie dispatches to the Bos-
ton Globe give the latest information
concerning the result:
DENVER, Col, Oct. 4.-The election in
this State, yesterday, was very close. All
the returns are not in yet, but the present
appearances indicate a small Republican
majority. Six northern counties report a
Republican. majority of 1900 to 400,
while six or seven other counties report q
Democratic majority of 900. to 1000.
Several counties heretofore Democratic
remain to be heard from, but it is ex-
pected they will hardly give Democrat
ic majority large enough to carry the
State for that party.
DENVER, Col, October At appaers
now that the election, yesterday, was so
close that it is probable nothing definite
can be ascertained until the official re-
turns are all received.
New YORK, October A despatch
from Denver, received at the Democratic
headquarters, says. returns come in slow
ly, but most encourogipgly. The report

The term prosperity means, " adj
vance or gain in anything desirable;
succussful prosperity in any business
or enterprise" National prosperity
means the successful working Of busi-
ness affairs in such manner as to
give all branches Of business full en-
ployment at just and fair profits.
There must be just enough engaged
in the great industries OF agriculture,
manufactures and commerce rs to
preserve an equilibrium of demand,
and supply in the products put upon
the market. The nation has been out
of joint for the past years in this par
ticular. Too many have been engaged
in manufacturing, and with improved
machinery, too many goods have been
piled upon the market, like chunk
Of "hard tack" on the stomach Of a
dyspeptic. But this load is in great
measure now removed, The rusty
machinery begins to move. The cob
webs are being brushed from the spin
dies. The old time hum of business
begins to come from the mills that
have been as silent and lonely as a
charnel house. Thousands that look
forward to the coming winter with
anxious forebodings, "w:th the gaunt
and hungry wolf" staring them in the
face, now begin to rejoice to see him
disappearing, despite MI. Tilden and
his friends. We are coming back to
healthy condition. The weeds are
being pulled up. The spurious and
rotten have gone to pieces. Thous-
ands too many, that have been engag.
ed IN manufacturing, have gone to the
pillow and hoe, prefering to rely on
cool old mother earth for a living.
than upon the fluctuations of business,
and the caprice Of man.
This revival Of business will bring
into employment thousands Of labor
ers that have been il a condition of
enforced idleness. 1t is not, however,
to be expected that anything like the
extravaganza in business affairs that
prevailed during the time Of the war,
or for two or three years afterward,
will again be restored in this country.
1t is certainly an unnatural condition
in time of peace, and ought to be dis
commenced by every man of sound
conservative business principles. The
cheapness of money, on good paper,
in all business centres, indicates more
plainly than any democratic argument,
that there is money enough to carry
the business of the country. There
is an abundant crop, and the general
outlook is more hopeful than at any
period since the crash began. The
laws of trade are as fixed as those Of
nature, and conflict brings trouble.
This nation has learned lesson at
the hand Of experience, that all the
doctors in political economy or social
science, would have failed to
have taught them. Men will
now feel their way cautiously, and
step prudently, The times have COM
PEELED economy, but we fear the lesson
is not yet severe enough. The peo-
are yet fearfully extravagant. One
more t"rn Of the vice handle might
compel an economical prudence. But
we should be thankful for the lesson
already given, end all be ready to let
'experience have her perfect work..
