dence that the North regards the South as an
enemy whom they SANDER and libel in their
bitter writings. The Wing takes like view,
and is hopeful.
CHARLESTON Is. CT October 14th.-The
Meas Courier only sees cause for redoubled
effort, as Hancock is likely to need every
Electoral vote the South can give. The Re-
publicans may yet have surprises like that
in Maine.
New York, October 14th.-Tbe Herald
says: One thing that struck the Democrats
Tuesday was the solid South. There is no
excuse for solid South. 1t is an absurd and
offensive anomaly. In 1876 the Southern
men had a grievance, and sensible people
made no complaint of their solidity. In
1880 they have no grievance whatever, and
the Northern public, which has not much
patience with mere stupidity, concludes that
the people who act as the Southern men are
acting in politics may as well remain in the
minority. The Northern voter dislikes mere
mulishness. He despises shams, and
he believes, and Justly. that a
solid South is sham without the
least excuse. What is it solid for he asks
For tariff reform? No. For free ships
No For economy in public expenses Not
at all But, on the contrary. it is solid for
the Democratic party. That is all. The
Democrats now see the result in the October
elections-losses of Congressman in two
States so great that the House is almost GER
tain to be Republican losses of Legislatures
involving losses of Senators and the general
defeat, which, unless the Republicans make
some conspicuous blunders, will turn the
floating and independent vote in all
the States three weeks hence bodily over to
the Republican side.
The World, after claiming Indiana till it
was no longer possible, confesses that the re-
suit is unsatisfactory, but declares that the
State will vote for Hancock next month.
The Tribune says the experiment OF put
ting the lneanest man III the United States
on the Presidential ticket has proved brill
liant success. The Indiana Supreme Court
soiled its eimine for the sake of partisan
advantage, and has seen that that very action
offered the Republicans chance for giving
its friends the soundest dIubbiDg they have
had in half generation. It upset the Con-
stitution to by trick, and finds that it has
lost the whole game for the State and nation
too.
The Times says: The Democrats are Ell
IDENTIFY much annoyed by the overwhelming
defeat they have suffered, and much talk has
been indnlged in regarding proposition that
English, the candidate for Vice. President,
should now be forced to retire, aud allow
Democrat of greater popularity to enjoy the
doubtful honor.
The Sun says Of the result in Indiana This
is great surprise to the Democrats, and as
great blow as the Maine election was to the
Republicans. 1t turns the probabilities of
the case in favor of the election of Garfield,
but If the Democratic managers will draw
from it the lesson which the Republicans
drew from Maine, and go to work with zeal,
energy and resolution, they can reverse this
probability.

aged, insist that the real struggle is yet to
come, and claim that New York will next
month triumphantly determine the Presiden-

English IN November.
