PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
The country has passed through a fierce Pres
idential contest, and the result has been left in
dangerous and unsatisfactory shape, on &C
count of the rlnpr6 cedented closeness of the
election, the angry disputes as to the votes of
certain States, and the failure of the Constitu-
ton to provide any tribunal to solve doubts or
decide contested points.
GOV. HAYES ELECTED.
From the best light before it, THE TRIBUNE
believes that Hayes has received IS5 Electoral
votes against 1S4 for Tilden, and is therefore
entitled to be inaugurated President on the 18th
of March, 1877. The highest good of the South
as well as of the North would be best promot-
ed by his occupancy of the Executive Chair.
DANGER OF ANOTHER WAR.
But there are grave apprehensions that ruff
fanny, ravenous crowd of office-seekers may
resort to lawless and violent means to i.duct
the defeated candidate into the office of Chief
Magistrate. All peace-loving and law-abiding
men, irrespective of party, must stand together
in this crisis, and crush out the incendiary dem
agogues who are threatening to light the torch
OF internecine war, which would bring ruin
and destruction upon the country.
The coming year promises to be the most
THE TRIBUNE will do everything in its power
TO have the new President peacefully and law
fully inaugurated, and to restore harmony and
confidence in the future. Let lis never despair
of the Republic.
