elected from that county are the only
Republicans elected TO the State leg
islature. 1t is even suggested that
they be counted out, go q. to make the
Legislature unanimously Democratic.
Outside of Beaufort the $4,000 Repub-
i:can voters of the State have been un-
able to elect q single candidate. In
the Second Congressional district, the
Democrats refused to appoint a single
Republican manager of election, and
at nine-tenths of the polls the ballots
/ In the box exceeded the names on the
poll list by hundreds. and in some cases
by thousands, the extra ballots consist
ing in all cases of small tissue paper
tickets, printed in diamond type, with
the names of Democratic candidates.
At many boxes the Republican ballots
were destroyed By the managers, so as
TO make votes correspond with the poll
list, but in other cases, where the ex-
cess was too great, the poll list was
written up so as to correspond with the
ballots. In some cases, the names on
the poll list exceed the number Of bal
lots in the box.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-The Dem
ocrats of the South by their political
terrorism in preventing Republicans
from voting have now discovered that
they have ruined any prospects which
they might have had of political success
Two years hence. The cry Of "Solid
South" and their political intolerance
have had the natural effect upon the
mind of the intelligent North, as the
results of Tuesdays election show
The leaders OF the South who are now
in the city have suddenly awakened to
the fact thet even with their solid South
they lack forty nine of a sufficient num-
Der of electoral votes to elect the Dem
ocratlc candidate. Nor do they feel
much confidence IN the ability of the
Northern Democrats to make up the
deficit. New York AMI Indiana, with
their fifty electoral votes, would do it,
but the interests Of New York admit
ted to be too important to be trusted to
Democratic political heresies. Nor do
they count much on Connecticut, New
Jersey, Oregon, Nevada or California
The expectation of the choice of a
President and Vice President being
thrown into the House of Representa-
tives was very effectually exploded oy
the Insignificant show of strength made
by the Nationals and Greenbsckers in
the recent State elections. With ordi-
nary judgement there is no reason what
ever why ticket with Grant or Blain
al its head should not sweep the North
and giFe 6nal blow to the solid South
