The Result.

Sufficiently full and reliable returns
have been received by this office, Of
the election held On Tuesday Of this
week to warrant us in saying that
Garfield has been beyond doubt elect
ed president. We may say that the
Repv b'ican party has surprised itself
as did the English army at Waterloo.
The victors did not hope for such a
victory, nor did the vanquished antic-
ipste suca defeat. The vote proves
the issue to have been a sectional one
and the two great parties in the future
may be much more fifty named the
Northern and Southern, than the Re.
publican and Democratic parties. The
geographical division Of our country,
SO far as political parties are concerned
has at last como to be tah dcronph,
thanks to each, and if there be amy
permanent advantage to b derived
from such a condition Of our politics,
we trust that it will at once develop
itself. For our part we would fain
hel;ev, otherwise than that it Is an
unfortunate thing ye; are not pre-
pared to consent to any such views.
