The Contest Closed.

The close of the contest in the New York
Legislature for the election of two United
States Senators to succeed Messrs. Conkling
and Platt was received with manifestations
of pleasure in all Republican circles. The
election of Messrs. Miller and Lapham-one
but both supporters of the administration.
has removed, it is believed, all cause for
apprehension of split in the Republican
party of that State and gives the assurance
that in future contests the party will be
more united than it has been for years. The
growing popularity Of Gen. Garfield's ad-
ministration caused such pressure upon
the friends of Ex-senator Conkling, that in
self-defense they had TO yield and end the
unfortunate dissension that had continued,
with much bitterness. for ten weeks. The
result seems to be accepted in good spirit
by nearly all the supporters of Mr.. Conk-
ling and the indications are that in short
time the resentmentsg growing out of the con-
flict will pass off and the Republicans OF
New York be in good trim for measure
ment of strength this fall with the common
enemy-the Democracy.
Throughout the country the Republican
party has never been stronger. The ele-
waited sense of fairness which has thus far
been manifested by the administration
the broad grasp which has cOmprehended
the wants of the country, and the courage
and craftsmanship which have been shown
in managing all the interests Of the gov
eminent, supplemented by unusual harmo-
ny in the counsels and methods which have
been invoked-have not only united the Re-
publicans as they have never before been
united, but drawn from the business circles
Of the nation, irrespective OF parties, an
expression of opinion, which gives promise
of one Of the most successful and beneficent
administrations which has ever blessed the
country.

courage and Integrity, in futile effort to
evade fortified obligations, representing re-
cognized equivalents. AS State we could
not afford to do so, no more than as individ-
uals. The disgrace would cling to us with
death-llke tenacity, and constitute a re-
proach at home and abroad that would work
out disasters unreasonable in their magni-
tude.
The Lynchbmg Convention, which as
sembles on the 10th, will have to face this
question, and face it without disguise or
circumlocntion. The Republicans of Vir-
ginia will declare their fealty to Republi-
can principles and Republican record-will
flame out to the world that thew mean to
stand by the creed of the Republican party
of the nation and the honor and integrity
of Virginia, and put to the test every dele
gate who appears upon the floor tof the
Convention. There can be no Coalition
without qualification or an open abandon
ment of Republican principles. 10 declare
for Republican principles, and then to con-
sent to a coalition with faction whose sole
preteEsion OH the question of finance is to
repudiate port ion of the honest debt of
the State, would involve an inconsistency
so fragrant, an insincerity SO transparent,
and an absence of conviction so pro-
nounced, as to condemn now and for all
time to come every one who favored it,
Even if success could be attained by such
coalition. it would be purchased at a cost,
that would entail thousand fold more dis
honor than the most overwhelming defeat.
it would involve the entire destruction of
the Republican party of Virginia, and at
the same time duplicate the reputation Of
the Republican party Of the nation and
constitute one of the strongest levers that
could be formed for its overthrow and utter
