GENERAL RESULT.

CINCINNATI, October 16.-The Re!
publicans in Ohio have been victorious,
but after the, excitement attending the
hrst news has worn off, the question
arises: GLOW much of victory. was
ltF' wednesday" morning the eagles
and other symbols Of triumph, which
ornamentcd the first pages of the Re-
publican newspapers in Ohio, were
followed by the announcement that
General Robinson had been elected by
a majority of from IL, 900 to 10000. Ii
was also stated that the Republicans
had elected twelve or more Congress-
men. These claims have been, in ONLY
two days, somewhat reduced. In-
stead of 10000 majority it is doubtful
il the official count will give 10 OOU to
the Republicans; while, as for Com
gressmcn, the Democrats are sure of O
majority--clcvcn--and the Republicans
only have ten.
COLUMBUS, o., October 19.-Unoffi.
cial returns received last night from all
but. five of the counties in the State
show Republican mnjoritics of 45, 1872
and show Democratic majorities of Al.
399. The net Republican plurality TO,
the State is now estimated at 10, ,855. .
COLUMBUS, Ono, October 17.-The
official vote counted by the count,
clerks to-day from sixty counties ant
| semi official from the other twenty
eight counties, gives Robinson fol
secretary Of State 1881, and Flcck
niger for board Of public works 17,476
Seni-oflicial returns do not report OF
the other Republican candidates.
But with sixty counties the pluralt,
of johnson for Supreme Judge is csti
mated at between $4,000 and 10000
The total vote or majoritics by Con.
grcsSional districts cannot be given,
but the vote by counties on Congress-
men shows 58,544 Republican MAORI
ties and 40, 12G Democratic. The net
Republican majority on the Congress
sional vote is 1S,41S.
COLUMBUS, o., October 49, The re-
turns by counties are complete. Do
not change the pluralities given last
night. Unexpectedly the Prohibition
and Grccnback Butler votes increase
proportionutcly with those of the
Democrats and Republicans. The
prohibition vote last year was 1852,
this year ii is 9,51O. The Grccnback
vote last year was 2,937, this year it is
$3.50, showing no coalition, but that
the party lines were closely followed.
The total Prohibition-Grccnback vote
is 12,447, or 1926 more than Robin
sons plurality. The rest of the Re-
publican ticket has an average majori-
ty over all of over 5000. The total
vote is 7SO,373. Last year it was
U5,6l6, in October, 1880, it was 716,,
lS6, and in Novcmbcr, 1880, it was
I24,9G7. There is no change in the
congressman except an increase of 15(
in Romeis's majority over IIurd.

Preparing for tho Bulldozors

CHICAGO, Ill.,, October 18.-In com
mentihg upon the supervision Of the
polls ON election day, and the appoint
ing of deputy United States marshals
and deputy sherifis, the Times this
morning prints the following: "The
Democrats, that is to say, one hundred
OF them, organized yesterday what
they are pleased to style vigilance
committee. 1t is composed Of deter
mined men who are resolved that no
intimidation or violenSe shall rule at
the Chicago polls, and their orders arc
to provoke no fight themselves nor to
indulge in any, as long as the contest
is merely wordy, but if any BULLDOG
ing is attempted by negro or other
deputy marshals, TO resist it, and if
any Democrat is shot, to sec to it that
the shooter at once suffers the same
fate. SO the matter stands, and if the
feeling keeps growing in intensity
there will be serious trouble in Chicago
on election dav."

Speaking to the New England Club Of Bos,
ion oH the Arctic EXpcditIon

Speaking to the New England Club Of Bos
ion on the Arctic Expedition.
Lieutenant Grcely was the guest of
the New EuglSnd Club, Of Boston, on
Saturday evening", "hcrc he made
brief speech. After referring to. the
Importance Of the discovery made bv
his expedition and to the part which
New Englandors had taken in the past
in Arctic explorations, he said: "Of
&C last terrible year | have little to
say. After having faced death for
weeks and months and cxNcricnced
all of the vicisstuds of Arctic vova-
gers, we suffered as others did from
the intense cold. We were for forty
days on tloc thinking VIC should
never land again. Then, during ter
rible storm, the ticrccst | have ever
known, we had to transfer our camp
from one tloc to )thcr. After a ter
riblc struggle We reached the land,
then came the horrible news that the
Protcus had sunk. We found we
were on shore from which the hardy
EsquimauX had been driven centuries
ago. But we were kept up by deter
mination and resolved to face any,
thing and everything, and let fate do
its worst. We determined that we
| would meet it whatever it was, and
die like men, tremendous applause
and, when we had made up our minds
to that, it was not so hard as YOU may
think it was.
Gas the slow Iwccks passed by and
! we lived in the ice house and from dav
to day had scarcely enough to keep
body and soul together, one little bit
of flicker from n rag dipped in seal
oil being onr only light, and we knew
| it would be months before we could
hear from our native land, we had
confidence and felt that it was certain
that the party, as party, would re-
| turc. There was nothing like mutt
ny and there was no separation in the
camp. There was nothing on the part
4 OF the weakest to prevent others from
| having their fnll share, and when one
OF our mon was so frozen that his feet
dropped from his ankle bones, all the
rest cared for him. never knew n
man who was not willing to do any
thing and everything he could for this
man who had Sacrificed his limbs for
| us.
"NVhcu daylight came, for we were
II days without the sun, and when
talking about the troubles we had pass.
ed through, ono Easter Sunday there
came to us ray Of hope by the shift
| ing of the snow on our house and we
talked OF the DAYS to come. Scarcely
a man but said that in the future he
would think more kindly. of the world
and felt that in every man there was
more of good than Of bad. Gentlemen,
am not very strong and no speech
maker Voices Go on r can only
thank YOU for the kind rGco option and
say God bless you one and all"
