THE NEWS ~ THE CITY.
How the Returns were Received At the PO-
Iitical Headquarters.

The headquarters OF the General Com
mittees were not besieged as on Tuesday night,
although the parlors, both OF the Democrats, at
the Everett House, and the Republican, at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel, were tnronged by anxious
politicians. The line that reached far out into
the street at both places on Tuesday ended NJ
the street doors. The Democrats were conf
dent and even exultant. The last word from
Indiana In the evening came at half-past six,
and said "The returns make Indiana undOubt-
edly Democratic" and from OHIO came the
hopeful sentence: I'VE do not give up the
State" Cheers greeted the reading OF each des-
patch. The prevalent opinion among the Demo-
cratic wisracres was that Indiana IS undOubt-
edly Tor II den, but there was strong DOUBT
expressed about ONO. Among the early visitors
a the Democratic headquarters were MAY or
