National Republican., 1877-11-08
An EpitOme Of the Result.
NLW YORK.

We begin with the Empire State, for she
has covered herself with the highest honor
in the late election. The Legislature is de-
oidedly Republican in both branches. This
has been occurred through the fidelity of the
rural districts where Federal oilice-hold-
ing is scarce and weak, and where restrain
ing influences have not fallen with dampen-
ing effect upon the ardor of the canvass
This insurcs Republican Senator as the
successor of Mr.. CoNKLING. Thank Heaven
for that! 1t also teaches the lesson
that tried political integrity and sterling
ability, such as are combined in the charac-
ter of Senator CoNKLING, are appreciated
by the people of New York, and that he
cannot be whistled down the wind by mere
dreamers Of chimerical reformers. We hope
those who have taken the contract to have
Senator CoNKLING ostracised by the people
of his State will profit by this lesson and
shape their future action accordingly.
PENNSYLVANIA.
The contest in the Keystone State has
terminated in Republican defeat. The
Democratic majority will not much exceed
ANpvVV' 'S wv NV t'hV hO" " u"'h upoh
the influences that have led to this result
We leave that task TO the future.
MASSACHUSETTS.
We have nothing to materially change
the result in Massachusetts from what we
gave it yesterday morning. The Republi-
can Governor is elected by plurality of
about 1000.
CONNECTICUT.
The contest in Connecticut was over the
L., 'ature and county sherins, and the re-
suit Is somewhat surprising. The Legsla-
turc is Republican in both branches. This
gives token of returning reason to the peo-
pie of the Nutmeg State. 1t is to be hoped
that it will continue in well-doing.
WISCONSIN.
The result in this State is very lose, but
the Republicans insist that they have car
ried it by q small majority. Wisconsin Re-
publicans here and elsewhere had aban-
doned all hope of saving the State, and the
outcome surprises them quite as much as
any ono else.
MINNESOTA.
This State stands by the Republican
faith. The Republican State ticket has
from 10000 to $4,000 majority. The Legis-
lature is largely Republican in both
branches.
NEW JERSEY.
Little MAC. has captured the State OF
New jersey, cranberry marshes, swamps,
sand plains and all, it being the first victory
no has ever been known to win. The ex-
ecutive mansion is to be established on a
Desbrosses-street ferry-boat, with tcle-
graph line and trenches running from
thence to Trenton.
NEBRASKA.
This State is Republican by from 1000 to
5000 majority.
THE SOUTHERN STATES.
SO far as elections have been held in the
South, they indicate state Of Democratic
solidity that does not at all surprise us. 1t
now looks as ii the North had begun to
solidiiy also, when old Connecticut wheels
into the Republican columns. A few more
such bcastly demonstrations as have
come from the Southern press since the
death Of Senator MORTON and little more
Southern gasconade and insolence, such rs
have been cast before the country since the
present Congress met, will bring the nation
precisely where il stood during the rebel
lion, with solid North" against the solid
South" and all this will be the result
OF Southern pacifcation and reconciliation
with u vengeance.
