The Reanlt n oarron.


We congratulate the Democracy Of this
county on the victory achieved on Tuesday.
The majority on the State ticket is 1874,
which IS about The usual majority. On
the local ticket there was great deal Of
cutting, though Mr.. Trumbo, county treas
urer, has majority over his opponent,
Mr.. Wampler, Of 34S. The total vote is
7s5 short Of what it was last year, there
being 62O7 cast then, and the vote this
year being 5422. Great apathy existed,
and very little effort was made by either
party toget out the vote. A few Of the
candidates worked bard, but altogether it
was the quietest canvass ever known in
the county, but few meetings we're held,
and those only week before the election
The average majority on the Legislative
ticket is 29l, on the Commissioners ticket
it is 254, and for Sheriff l62.

The speech of Hon. Samuel ]. Tilden,
at his home in New York, which appeared
in this paper last week, speaks out with
becoming spirit, on the subject Of the
fraud which deprived him of the Presi.
deucy. Had he spoken with like spirit,
at the proper time, when the question was
pending, the result might have been, and
no doubt would have been, different. But,
when he might have raised his voice in
defense of the right, and turned the scale
to the side Of the verdict Of the people, he
opened not his mouth. He stepped not
forth to the support of his friends, but left
them to struggle single-handed agains,
organized power and the contamination Of
the greatest viIlaiuy that ever disgraced
the annals Of a free people.

Foreign Affairs.


An excellent and abundant vintage is re-
ported throughout the south of Europe this
season.
Affairs in France are rapidly coming to q
crisis. The Marshal President must declare
himself very speedily, and he has the choice
Of submission, resignation or coup detat.
At present the impression seems to exist in
Paris.,hat he viii attempt the latter.
The French Assembly met Wednesday and
held quiet session. NJ Gresy, moderate
republican, was chosen proyisionalpresident
Marshal MacMahon assured a delegation Of
the Right that he would not resign. This pro-
badly means that he intends to- unload his
cabinet
The fall OF Erzeronm is the seyerest blow
yet suffered by the Turks. II makes the sur
render Of Kars inevitable sooner or later, aud
lays open all Armenia to Russian occupation.
The Russians now can afford to pause a while,
strengthen their position, gather up the fruits
Of their victory, and perhaps go into winter
quarters. They received so severe a lesson
in the break down Of their attack early in the
season that they will not be likely TO repeat
their rashness.
