September election in every Presidant;ni tne

1856. ''' was
What is the Republican majority fo,.
the State ticket in Maine on MOnday n
is admitted that it falls far below tho
average Of 1856. According to present
advices Maine polled a larger vote ON
Monday than ever before, This Stata
Is admittedly Republican. With a. laroe
vote the majority for that party sbon1S
be increased rather than lessened- The
returns show very large falling off in
the Republican majority, SO large indeed
That the Democrats are jubilant over II
what the exact per centage of loss is
cannot, ,Sntil the full returns are 'I re %
ceived, be correctly ascertalnes
But enough is known of the resnlt to
enthuse the Tilden men with the J br;nbt' ~ =
est hopes of victory. If the Democrats
should gain SO largely in Indiana as
they have in Maine, they viii sweep eo
that State by thirty thousand maior;tp
next month. If, however, upon the fnjl
returns the majority in Maine shoaid
fall to or below 10000, the contest is
virtually decided in favor of Tilden.

There is Little Said About ohio,

We venture to assert that Ohio is a
Democratic State in October. The Re-
publican National Committee say that if
Hayes can't carry Ohio in October, he
must make way for Grant, or some other
reliable Republican. We scarcely expect
that Hayes will feel inclined to retire in
favor of General Grant. But there is
reason to believe that this is really the
programme Of the Radicals, who contem-
plate a desperate coup Fetat after the
October elections, believing in defeat in
that month.
lfthey want to substitute the live
Grant for the dummy Hayes, We have NJ
objection; Grant and Fitzpatrick, o,
Hayes and Wheeler, makes very httl,
difference in the election of Tilden anc
Hendricks.

The Col0re u vote.

1t is fighting against inevitable tate
for the Repu blicaps to contend for
united colored vote hereafter, either
north or south. The day for that kind
of monopoly has passed When Demo-
cratic eolored club can muster in strength
sufficient to provoke the ire OF all the
Republican negroes in a city, the indi-
cations clearly are that the disaffection
will be large Throughout the state. IN In
colored voters have Joined the Demo-
Gratis, and will vote for Tilden, and in
telligence of like character comes to us
from Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama and
Louisiana. The day when the Republi-
can party carried the colored vote in its
breeches pocket has passed, to return no
more forever.-Phila, Chronicle.
We publish the above for what it is
worth. The Chronicle may indulge such
hopes but in Delaware Democrats have
seen enough to convince them that it is
worth negro's life to vote the Demo-
cratic ticket if those of his color knew
it. No people ever were so intollerant
as the negroes are to each other. Not
one in this city dare vote openly the
Democratic ticket; Notwithstanding a
part of the Republican party have de-
sired to have the negro vote divided be-
tween the two PARTIES or pretended to
hold this desire.
The Chronicle knows that no negro is
permitted to vote the Democratic ticket
in Philadelphia. That if he did so and
it was known he would be mobbed by his
own color; and if he was not beaten 10
death would be hooted at by all the
Radical negroes and dogged to the end
of life by Radical whites. Col. Ferney
knows this too, and yet he has the su-
preme impudence to use such language
in the Press in criticising Gov. Hubbard s
speech as no gentleman not actuated by
malice should prinv. If Col. Forney was
living in Virginia or any of the Southern
States he would hold very different views
and advocate very different measures
He knows as well as any one that many
of the negroes of the South are too ig-
norant to Knowwhat they are voting for.
Previous to 1864 such ching as uni
versal negro suffrage was secuted by Mr..
Forney nor was it advocated by Horace
Greeley or any of the + .dical abolition
lists. 1t was measure caught up ly the
Republican politicians to enable them to
carry the elections.
The English abolitionists never de-
manded suffrage for the freedmen; and
even the Radical politicians debated the
question of qnalified suffrage for the me-
groes until they saw they would be vo-
TED out of the control Of the government
by the white people, and then it was
they resolved upon universal negi suf-
frage and sent troops south to vote the
negroes by gangs. Fearful still of the in
telligent white vote north and south,
the7 resolved to disfranchise the whites
of the south. This government has been
ruled through by the aid of negro suf.
frage ever since the war upon the south
terminated.

should be cheering to every Democrat
1t is his desire that the country may es-
escape from under the heavy burden of
taxation which has been laid upon the
people. His wish Is, therefore, to bene-
tit the whole laboring people. The he
publican party deny they have been ex-
travagant, and if the election turns in

hold that the majority of the people
