The State Elections.;
From the Timet,
Top results of the lute elections show very
Clearly that ttao contest has been almost pre'
Cindy as it was two years ago, between the
Democratic and the Union parties. The dif
ferences between Congress and the President
lave had no perceptible influence upon the party
divisions ot the past four or live years. Nor has
the Philadelphia Convention, strong as was the
Impression which it made at the outset upon the
public nnnd, prodweed any marked clfect upon
political organizations in the Feveral States
where elections have been held. On the one
side is the old Democratic vote, Increased or
diminished somewhere here and there by local
influences, and on tho other is theiUnion ma
jority, stronger on the whole than ever before,
and not at all atfectod either by the strong
appeals made to its judgment and reason, or by
the influence and putronage of the General
Government brought to bear upon tt. It is un
doubtedly true that the whole power ot the Ad
ministration has been thrown against the
Republican party; yet that power, great as it
always is, has been able to effect absolutely
nothiugiu the general result.
The reason ot this U found in the fact that it
has been thrown in favor of the Democratic
party, at organized and directed during the
war. It bus not been used with primary regard
to the principles and policy of the Administra
tion iteilf. The Philadelphia Convention set
torth what we believe to be the Administration
platform on tho subject of Restoration; but that
platform was not made the basis of political
action by the Administration itself or by any
body else. It was simply surrendered to the
Democratic party as a stepping-stone to power.
The leaders of that party seized upon it for
that use. Their subsequent action proved con
clusively that their motives in accepting and
endorsing It were partisan that they sought,
not so much the restoration of the Union as
the reorganization and reinstatement of their
own party.
The Philadelphia Convention gave the country
a bafi? of restoration upon the principles set
tled by tho war and to this tho rfouth gave tea
unanimous, sincere, and cordial assent. It ibe
Democrats of the North had accepted it with
the same sincere desire for the public good.it
would have been indorsed and reaffirmed by the
people. But they did nothing of the sort. They
took it as pert ot tueir own stock in trade.
They seized It as the ladder upon which they
were to climb buck again into tne high places
from which they had been expelled. Designed
as a great national movement, for the attain
ment of national ends, it became, in their hauds,
a tool for the attainment ot a partnan purpose
for the muinption of official place and party
power.
Unfortunately the friends of the Administra
tion lent themselves to the project. Demo
cratic committees and Democratic candidates
repaired to Washington and demanded of the
Administration the Hid of its patronage and
its influence for their party purposes, and it was
very largely accorded to them. Democrats of
Copperhead antecedents were aDDointed to
othce not ucivevsally, perhaps o ten through
inadvertence and lack of iulormation but
upon tbe application of Democratic leader.',
far more anxious to restore their party to
power than to &erve the Administration
or save the Union. The same men,
acting from the same motives, secured Demo
cratic nominations .lor State offices and for Con
gress, wherever they had cdances ot success,
and the whole current ol political action ran
in the same direction.
The natural effect of all this was to produce
upon the public miud the conviction that the
aim of the Administration was to re3torc the
Democratic party to poower;and as this convic
tion grew the political power of the Administra
tion dwindled until it absolutely ceased, as tUe
result shows, to have any perceptible influence
upon the elections whatever. There is one
thing upon which the people have made up
their minds, and neither tho President nor any
other power can chanee it, and that is that tne
restoration of tho Union shall not be intrusted
to the men who tried to destroy it by war, nor
to those who failed to resist that attempt by all
the means in their power. This determination
may not be logical, nor constitutional, nor
strictly in accordance with the rights of States
and sections; but It is instinctive and uncon
querable. Once let it be distinctly understood
tliat the Democrtttic party is not to be restored
to its old ascendancy, and the people will be
liberal, just, aud generous in their adjustment
of alt political ditlerences; but so long as that
point is left in doubr, they will be exacting aud
intolerant upon all. The late elections show
that tbey Intend to have guarantees upon that
point tJrst; and nothing is likely to be gaiaed,
in any quarter or by any party, by resisting
and delving their will.
Iate Elections Our National Finances.
From the Herald.
The eleciions that have just taken place have
made the issue with regard to Southern restora
tion a simple one. The conditions laid down by
Congress have been approved by the popular
voice by the people of the Northern States,
vho have the sole power over the question in
their hands. When we say the Northern States,
-we take it for granted that the rest will go as
Maine, Vermont, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana,
and Iowa have gone. The elections in these
States are sutlicleut to show the current and
force of popular sentiment throughout the wlion
North. The verdict is decisive.
The action of Congress next session iu the
matter of restoring the Southern States will be
undoubtedly in accordance with ihis ver
dict. The conservative Republicans, hav
ing obtained the victory and secured the
lease ot power they wanted, can now
afford to act with "more promptness and
generosity iu restoring the South than under
other circumstances. Tbey have nothing to
tear with resrard to their political future by
admitting the Southern Slates immediately
those States ratif y tne Constitutional amend
ment. Tbey will even strengthen their posi
tion by doing .-so. They are powerful enoug h
in Congress to carry out this policy in spite of
the radical destruciives. The President, too,
It is to be hoped, will see the necessity of the
present situation, and will act in concert with
the conservative majority in bringing about an
early ret-toration under the Const essioual plan.
This, it seems to us, is the only practicable
plan lett, and the only safe course lett to
pursue.
We need a speedy settlement ot the political
difficulty, not onlv because there i danger iu
keeping it open until it becomes ceronic, but
because there are other important questions
demanding attention. The 'most important of
these Is that relit. ng to our natioaai finances,
We present the extraordinary speotaele at the
present time of being the richest and most
prosperous country in the world, raising nearly
a hundred and tiny millions a year surplus
tevenue, pajinu off the national debt rupldlv,
tud showing beyond dispute our ability to
extinguish the whole debt in fifteen or twenty
Years and yet, at the same time, our securities
are not wortn in the markets of the world half
theii real value compared with the securities
of other countries, liritish Three Per Cent.
Cousolb are quoted at ninety, while our six
per cent, gold-bearing interest bond are sell
iiiir at seventy.
A comparison with the stocks of other nation
will enow a similar result, if not quite so great
a diL'eteuce. To the mass ol people this auom;i
ons state of things must seem almo-t Incom
prehensible. Hi really a iiiiiiillliitinjr spectacle

lor us, and it calls for somo Rction to place our
credit on a proper looting. The credit ot an In
dividual is measured by his ability to pay. al
ways supposing he Is honest and willing to pay.
It should bo the iame with nations. Taking itior
granted that no one has any doubt of tuts great
republic keeping its faith with the national
creditors, the only question that would be raised
to keep our slocks depreciated Is as to onr
means of paying. Well, tho exhibit we have
made and are makintrot our wonderful resources
i a enllicictit answer to tbat. While the richest
nations of Europe have great dilliculty in
making both ends meet, and have nearly reached
the limited their productive power, we, with a
oebt as large as the largest, reckoning by the
interest it bears, have an immense surplus reve
nue, and are able to pay oil the principal of our
debt at tberateol neatly a hundred and filty
millions a jenr. ,
This is our present condition; but when we
look at the incalculable rconrces of this vast
continent, at the surprising productive power of
thirty-rive millions ot active and enlightened
freemen, and at tho Increase of population,
which doubles in twenty-rive years when we
look at these facts, unparalleled in the history
of nations, who can doubt our ability to pay
not only the Interest, but tho principal of the
debt al-o within a few years? In fact, a debt
that would weigh down any other country is
comparatively a trifle to us.
We call upon tho Administration and Con
gress, then, to heal up our political troubles at
once, and turn their attention to tlii s, most Im
portant matter. Let our finances and financial
sv9tem be placed upon such a basis as to make
onr credit stand as high or higher than that of
anv nation; lor that is where it ought to be.
Let the debt be consolidated and simplified In
one lorm, and a sinking fund established at
the same time, with the fixed object of ex
tinguishing the whole within a reasonable time.
Let non-interes.t-bearina legal tenders be sub
stituted for the national bank notes, and the
Interest-bearing bonds, upon which these notes
are based, be cancelled to the same amonnt.
Tho interest which the Government would thus
save say some twenty millions a year might
be made the sinking fund, or a part of it. By
skillful, statesmanlike management in making
these changes, a considerable portion of the
debt might be swept away in the process.
Nothing would bring us sooner to specio pay
ments, and it would effectually destroy the
moneyed oligarchy which is lastcning itself
upon the country at.d the labor of the poor.
Assuming that our political difficulties will be
settled, this remains the paramount subject lor
our statesmen and the Government to take up.
What statesman will immortalize himself
what party will establish itself by solving this
the greatest of all our domestic questions?
Falsifying Election Return.
From the World.
The Herald is the most scandalously unfair
of all tho radical papers in its published
election returns and comments upon the same.
Having predicted the utter rout ot the Demo
cratic party in the election just past, it
manages to give the impression to its readers
that the radicals had made heavy gains, when
the facta are the other way. In the case of
Ohio, for instance, it compares the maioritv
this year with Cox's majority last year in the
canvass lor Governor. Cox, It will be remem
bered, made several anti-neero-sutfraee
speeches, for which he was cut at the polls by
the radicals, thus very largely reducing his
own vote as compared with the rest of his
ticket.
The proper comparison with the vote of last
Tuesday is that ot 18G4, when the full vote was
out. Lincoln's majority was nearly 60,000; we
do not believe the Republican majority this year
n ill ..n.l on nnn 1 1. .. 1 i - ... -1 . . . "

than 42,000. Vallandigham was beaten by nearly
iuu.uuu majority, ana judging oy tnat vote, we
have made enormous tains; but it would not be
a fair comparison. The following figures tell the
&tory ot the heavy Democratic gains as com
pared with the vote to years since:

Ohio, Kop., majority d'J,586 80,000
Indiana, liep majority. ...20,189 10,000
luna, hep. majority 80,479 25,000
We buve given in the above estimate
higher
tie u res to the radicals than wo thins the oihctul
riguies will give them, but in no event cau they
come any ways near their majorities in 1864,
Why cannot the Herald be at least as honest as
the Boston Advertiser, which acknowledges
itself disappointed by the result, which did not
come up 10 its expectations?
The Herald has made itself perfectly ridicu
lous by its recent summersaults. It was Demo
cratic up to the Maine election, because it suo-poi-ed
tbe tide run that way; then it turned
radical because it supposed the Congressional
party would be overwhelmingly indorsed. In
both cases it blundered; the radicals retain
their Congressional majority , it is true, but tbe
increase ot votes is with the Democrats. The
highest aim ot (lie herald is to be a weather
cock, but it mukes a very poor one, as it can
never tell which way the wind blows.
The Contested Seats.
From the Tribune.
The present Congress was compelled to act
on several cases of contested seats. The Re
publican majority being nearly three to one,
while party feeling ran very high, there was
great danger that politics would exert an in
fluence over their decisions. So far, however,
it would seem that the people, on appeal,
have sustained the action of the majority.
In the Sixteenth District of Pennsylvania,
A. H. Cotlroth (Deni.) was returned to the
present House, and held the seat several
months. The House, on a contest, gave it to
General William H. Koontz (Kep.). The people
have just re-elected General Kooutz by a tar
larger inujorlty than he claims to have re
ceived in 1864.
lu the Twenty-flrrt District, General Daw
son (bem.) was returned by 12." maioritv.
Smith Fuller (Kep.) contested. The House
continued General Dawson in the seat.
John CVovode (Rpp.) now carrie that
district hv H.r0 maioritv. From tne fievnnth
District of Indiana, Daniel W. Voorhees (Detn.)
was returned by 584 majority. General Henry
D. Washburne (Kep.) contested, claiming that
a heavy rrauduieiH vote had been polled lor
Voorhees. The Houe finally decided that it
was so, and guvo the seat to General wash
burne. He lias just carried the district for the
Fortieth Congr ess by COO majority.
Pennsylvania.
From the Tribune.
Tbe general result In Pennsylvania is sub
stantially, as we have already stated, a sum of
eighteen Republican Congressmen elect, of
whom two are positive gains. General Henry
L. Cake's majority in the Tenth District is 185
over his opponent, Dr. C. M. Glouliiger, and
this Is due, we do not doubt, more ,'to the emer
gent and rising intelligence of the people than
to the personal worth of the candidate. The
Twenty-first l)istrict will return the Hon. John
Covode, a popular representative man of his
State, after an absence fur a fcerm from Congress.
His majority of 350 is a very decided one, view
ing the tact that bin District previously elected
a Copperhead as unrepeutaut Hud inveterate as
tbe Hon. Jobu Daw son.
The radical candidate in the Twelfth District,
Mr. Jame9 Archibald, bus manfully determined
to content tho fraudulent re-election ot his com
jetitor, tho Hon. Charles Denison, its present
member ol Congress. There can be no doubt
whatever as to the lawless and disgraceful
means undertaken to bring about this Copper
head succe-s. On the day of election 300 false
naturalization papers, already tilled out, were
seized at Hyde Park, a small depeadeuce'of the
city ot Scranton, and we have trustworthy
assurance tbat over 200J illegal votes were
rolled iu Luzerne county. Mr. Archibald's
tcchuical defeat is wholly out of proportion to
h'd popularity aiid Influence In the district
w herein be resides, and. as he is but 70'i votes
behind his competitor, he will inevitably con
test the cane, with the best chance of rendering
anotner gain to tne radical delegation
Congress.
in
Ohio.
From the Tribune.
Of the States which on Tuesday held their
elections, Ohio is likely to claim the banner.
Almost every part of the State makes the most
cheering reports, and Democratic gains outsido
of Cincinnati, are rare exceptions. Tho Repub
lican majority of 1805 (29,1.36) has been nearly
doubled, as the latest despatches Indinite that
It will not fall below 45,000. The following are
the majorities in the counties heard from, com
