fence that the success of Edward Cooper

He was cursed by the support OF few OF

the charge that Senator COnkllnE was III close

Conklng's special representatives IN TINS
city organized and olicered the opposi-
ton TO Tammany, and, III spite OF
the hostility of some Republicans, gave
Tammany the most overwhelming defeat 1t

said against Mr.. COnkling, the story that he

Tammany Hall will have to be abandoned.
An illusion likely TO do great harm is one
about the real strength shown by Republi-

does not prove that the country is safe

reverse. The Republican party was able to

Is whether it can beat them united. The

One of the most notable facts already
clearly set forth in the election returns is the
great Greenback fascO. But little while
ago, and the new party WAS the subject Of deep
anxiety TO veteran politicians and unhoiy JOY to
the dcmsgoQues. IT threatened TO wreck al the
plans Of the one class, and bade fair TO make
the fortunes OF the other. II was to hold the
balance OF power i'll Congress and III our Leg

and we dare say General Butler even did q
little serious thinking about his Cabinet.
The elections have been held, and this Wis

six straight Greenbackcrs in the next House
of Representatives, and only two members
who have been elected 10y fusion

The State delegations are so arranged
that one Greenbacker may have it in his

AMEnnRARLE ASSEMRLK-

The Assembly of 1879 will have the
heaviest Republican majority seen in that
body, excepting IN one year, SINCE the Re-
publican party came into being. The re-
turns elect beyond doubt, 81 Republican
Assemblymcn, and contests in one or
two close districts may raise even
this figure There has been but one Assembly
in which the proportion of straight Rcpubli-
cans was as great-that of 1872, elected IN
1871, in which the number was also 81. The
overwhelming victory in 1872 sent but 81
Republican members to the Assembly, and the
highest figures reached in the stirring days
lust before and just after the war elected but
SO Republican ASScmblymcn in November of
1860 and but 81 in 1865. The highest figure
reached since the birth Of the Republican
party was in the Assembly of 1859, when the
Republicans and "AmeriCans numbered 80
but these were fusion candidates. The body
which will meet next January therefore, will
have Il narrow escape from being the banner
R,publican Assembly of York.
Here is another striking fact: Thirty coun-
fics in thus state elect more than one Assem-
blynan each. OF these thirty no less than
nineteen have .cbOsen solid Republican dele
cations. Not single county IN the State,
however small, Of those electing more than
one member, has chosen solid Democratic
delegation. The Senator who is chosen by
such Republican Legislature may well be
proud OF his election.

as the British Foreign Office has called for
statement from the Newfoundland Govern
ment which in response has prepared with
alacrity, a case reiterating its grievances, and
conlending that our fishermen are bound by
colonial laws. The statement of fact is no
doubt intended for Secretary Evarts, who de-
clined to regard Captain Sulivan's report as
"iudicial evidence The assertion that colo

believed that the election by the people
