Show THE RESULT. Whilo lull returns bavo not yetbecn r -ceivcd from the soveral State electros, elec-tros, cnouph is known to give assur-aoce assur-aoce thatGraot is rc-elcctcd by a very ' largo majority. Tho great States of New York, PcDDsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Illi-nois, Iudiaca and Iowa, of themselves -- c-mii.u; within fifty votes of electing a President, have given him majorities rauging probably from ten to seventy-five seventy-five thousand. This may bo accepted j as tho verdict of tho country, for although al-though there is no doubt that the O'Hireo of tho Democrats largely affec-tod affec-tod tho final result, in their failing to b twtaio tbo regular nomineeB of their parly, tho winning sido has a right to regard their inaction as a nega-tivo nega-tivo if not a positive indorsement of their nominees. Perhaps the Gumming up of tho New York "World," mado at midnight mid-night last night, will be found as near correct with tho information to hand tn any figuring that can bo made from tho returns, for tho "World" has never been a warm adherent of G reeley and has aimed throughout the oimpaign to give trustworthy returns. Its cstimato was that Grant had carried every Northern State, with South Carolina and Mississippi, Mis-sissippi, giving a total of 253 olcetoral vote?; leaving 113 electoral votes for Greeley, all from Southern States. As more complete returns are received re-ceived this result may bo slightly modified, yet it is not likely to bo materially ma-terially changed. |
