RACING the Situation.

LOUISVILLE, KY, July 2l.-The Louisville
Post the now democratic daily, camo out in an
article yesterday warning the democrats
against the folly of over.conhdencc. 1t says
that, W without an adjustment of local differ
ences in Virginia, Hancock will lose eleven
votes from the solid south and Garfield will
get them. The flourish made ovor T'ilden by
the national committee in New York. and the
snubblng of Kelly, were not calculated to
stimulate the zeal of tho Tsmmany chief or Of
his followers. With the loss of Virginia,
Hancock must got sixty.onc votes froa the
north. Should he loso New York, therefore,
his chances arc very uncertain. Pennsylvania
is IA doubtful state, and should he lose both
New York aud Pennsylvania his prospects are
almost hopeless The Post puts the possession
Of tho state government in New York at
$4,000 votes, and shows how easily tho repub-
licsns can overcome tho $4,000 majority by
which Tilden carried the state unless the
hearty support Of Kollys forces can be secured.
1t severely crticises those democrats who
are loaang about Governors island begging
Tor Offices instead of working at their posts,
and calls on Hancock to kick them from the
premises.
