OLEVELAND's ELECTION CON-
nEnED

| The official canvass of the vote of New
York has been completed in all but two
counties, and it is now unquestionable
| that the plurality of nearly 1900 claimed
| for Cleveland and Hendricks will stand,
thus giving them the thirty-six electoral
votes of the State and q majority of thirty
seven in the Electoral College. This result
is being accepted with equanimity by the
Republican leaders, and by none more
SO than Mr.. Blaine himself, who is too much
of man and statesman to mourn his de-
feat or waste time and words in vain re-
grets. He and Gen. Logan made a gallant
fight in the face of great odds, and neither
has cause to be ashamed of the outcome
The detection of thousands of free trade
Republicans in close States like New York,
New Jersey and Connecticut; the luke
warmness of the National Administration;
the silent yet determined opposition Of the
Stalwarts who are still devoted to the for
tunes OF Mr.. Conkling, and the heavy vote
diverted by the Prohibition candidates,
n1ne-tenths Of which came from the Re-
publican ranks, were causes that combined
to defeat Blaine and Logan: yet with all
these reinforcements the Democracy only
pulled through by a plurality of HOO in q
State casting over million votes. Without
any one. of these disturbing causes opera
ting against them the Republican nominees
would have been elected, and it is evident
that they must have received the support
of thousands Of citizens who have here
tofore voted the Democratic ticket. As we
said last week, the country is SO evenly di-
Vided between the two leading parties that
neither can coaduct an unsatisfactory ad- |
of the general government
and maintain its ascendency.
The peaceful settlement of a contest 40 |
remarkably close as that we have Just wit |
1essed furnishes foreible illustration of |
he wisdom of our form of government
md the stability of our institutions. As
u English journal truthfuIly remarked,
he state of uncertainty which followed the
lection, involving possible resort to
orce OF arms to determine the issue, had
'ss effect upon American securities in the
ondon market than q report that King
lfonso was afflicted with cold in the
sad would hare exercised upon Spanish
,eurities.

pie OF friends, and Dugas proposed to have
"a boxing match with Morgan. The latter
;aemurred, saying he didn't want to start q
russ, but being assured that it was only
Tor run, consented, and the men nut M
their hands and began striking at each
other IN approved prize ring style. Nor
gan's wife came along and thinking the
men were fighting endeavored to seDarate
them. when Morgan struck her on the
head. This seemed to anger Dugas ana
the contest was renewed in earnest. Dus.as
was knocked down four times ana retirea
from the field. About an hour and q half
afterwards the men met again and after a
few angry words had been exchanged Du-
gas drew revolver and fred two shots at
dorgan, one OF the balls taking effect in
the latter's abdomen, entering between the
seventh and eights ribs, wounding the
aver and causing internal hemorrhage and
death; The other striking a short distance
below and producing flesh wound. Du-
gas went to his cabin after the SHOOTING
and was shortly seen to jump from win
dow and run away. He was appreheuded
IN st. James parish, as stated above, brought
to Donaldsonyille on Friday, the 7th inst.
and is now in the parish jail awaiting trial.
DR.. John s. Thibaut, Deputy Coroner, held
an inqnest on the body OF Morgan, Mon

THE CZAR AND THE NIHILIsTs.-Ge:!
Appert, the French Ambassador at the Co'''t
of Russia, at present on visit to Paris, III
;, recent interview on the Gar and the Nj.
hilis,s, said 1.-THE Emperor's nature Is Sc
rious and contemplative. He is often tact
turn. He is loyal man, animated witt
the best desires for his country. The Nih'
lists, it is true, occupy good deal OF Ili;
thoughts, but their agitations are much lt>>
important than the papers assert, and hay"
had no effect on his grand character b:
sides everybody is very reticent on thi-
subject. The Russians say very little aDou'
their interior affairs. / am often much
embarrassed in making up my dispatch,
it is the real empire of silence. The Mini
lists are not what we in France CONSIDER
them 10 be. Wecall NihiIists rascals for whom
all methods are good enough. But they are dlVn'-
ed into two classes. One clas desires serious re-
forms compatible with the nature OF the country,
in accord with the progress other people enjoy
the other class is the one which wreck trains ana
use dv>amite as all ordinary weapon. In Russia
society mas be compared to the gcometrical figure
of the pyramid. At the apex the Gar, below,
forming large and solid basis, the peasants, who
fairly worship their sovereign; In the cehtre,
finally are those whom they call there the IN
tellieent class. This represents the army, the
nobility people having liberal professions, such as
