NEW YORK, Nov 4.-The Journal Of
Commerce Dem. says: The Republi-
cans have achieved . signal victory,
and the country may be congratulated
that Garfield is t.i'ly elected. The
result must be accepted ss an indication
that the North is not willing to institute
Q change Of sdministration. We have
several times protested against personal
dsnunciation Of Republican nominees,
because there was nothing to Justify
such vituperation. We hope the DOM
inant party will have a working ma
jority in both Houses, so that they may
be held accountable for the manage
msnt OF pablo affairs. We will give
cordial support to oil that is Just and
honorable in the coming ADMINISTERS

The New York World says: Garfield
will be chosen President by the cleo
toral vote of this State. and this vote
be will receive only as q consequence
of disastrous unexpected falling off in
the Democratic majority of Brooklyn
aud this city. That failing of resulted
from causes quite outside the national
contest. 1t is absolutely certain the
vote Of New York will be given Gar
field, not because Garfield is the choice
Of the majority of voters in New York,
but because, not for the first time in the
history Of our municipal parties. local
and personal interests have been pre-
ferred to the general welfare of the
party and Of the country. Tweed, for
example. gave this State to the Repub.
licsns in 1871 by forcing on city Dem
oorats his candidate tor election to the
State Senate. He was elected, but the
entire county ticket to the Legislature
was sacrificed. New York has secured
Democratic city government, which
so far is good thing, but remains to
DO seen whether they could not have
secured this at o less cost than her IS
electoral votes. which. added to the 1873
