The Washington Star OF W ednesday says
"In the peculiar aspect OF the vote u
New York State, the presidential auestl9,,n
Is not yet settled In favor OF the hePuu ,u
cans. They have elected Corneil ano car
r;aa the ! legislature, to be sure, but 1t Is
T,re,tv evident that but for John keiiy,s de-
fecfion Robinson would have been elected,
and this leaves the question in doubt whe-
tbar the Democrats cannot carry the great
niyota| State In 1880; that Is, II the factions
can succeed in harmonizing their quarress
and uniting upon presidential candidate
The result apparently shelves Tilden as
candidate. and at the same time Kills on
John Kelly and Tammany.
The election Of the anti-Tammany ticker
in New York city was a terrible blow tt
KELLY. It may be said to have put an enc
TO his career. Nevertheless, it also SHOWS
that it would never do to nominate TILDES
for President; and this was what KELLY
was working for.
The Star has also interviewed some OF tne
no)iticiaus at Washington on the subject OF
the New York elections. Itsays the ieellne
among them is "miNed." 1t adds tha'
"tbe talk and calculations are alone OF
New York" All the otter States are In
significant as compared with one whose
vote is large enough to elect q Democratic
President if cast along with those Of Indi-
ana and the southern States. We quote:
ION the whole. the Democrats seem to
feel in better spirits than their opponents.
This is not due, they admit, wholly 10 suo-
staniial results, but to the fact that Ihey
got more than they expected. Ihey
had braced themselves for pretty bad
Waterloo in New York, and are so SUR
priscd thar they have evidently carried
the State ticket, with the exception OF 10
bluson, that they exhibit a moderate de-
gree OF Joy. The Republicans, on the
other hand, had confidently prepared them
selves ior grand victory in New York,
and the fall that has evidently come to
them being unexpected is the more damp
ening."
The Democrats may we'll feel Gin better
spirits" The action Of the Democrats IN
Congress in trying to repeal the laws au-
thorizing deputy marshals and Federal su-
pervisors TO control elections was popular
thing in New York city, and will add TO the
chances which the Democrats previously
had Of carrying the Empire State.
Senator MITCHELL, the Republican sena-
tor from Oregon, WAS one OF the inter-
viewed. He said:
~ am very we'll satisfied with The cleo
tons Yesterday except in New York. /
don't like the indications that the State
ticket is Democratic. The victory is not
complete unless we get that" In reply to
the question whether the elections yester-
day meant Grant, he said: s'Therc is no.
thing that points strongly that way, though
the general drift Of all Republican politics
seems to be towards him."
The Star says OF the Republicans:
"They are forced to admit that IF the
State ticket is Democratic New York is a
Democratic State and will cast its vote fer
the presidential candidate of that faith il
the party can be united upon one man."
And that grand fact changes the entire
aspect OF affairs from what it was few
weeks ago.
