JU Till C&MBR1& JMfflH. EBENSDURC, PA., Friday Mornir-:, - - Nov. 9, 1877. Tits result of tho elections hist Tuesday j m.ts de f IYimsjlvania can.e fully up t- ; Denmciatic ex retations. In "New Yoik tlie Democratic State ticket is elected by j from 15, CM) to 2rMJ0 majority, ami a fair j woiking majority secured in I lie Iegisla- i turc, which will send a Demi-crat to the U. S. Senate t succed Ko'coo Conkling. General McCIcllaii's mnjoiity in New Jer sey, fur Oovema-r, is about 12,000. In Massachusetts, Rice (Bepnbl can) is rc ehctcd Governor bj 13, 000 majority. In Wikcontdn tLo lb-publicans fleet thci? Governor by a f-tnall ntajoi ity, ami in Minn esota by at'-tit 10, TOO. In Yiigiuia ami Mississippi, Denuciatic (Jovtrnois and other State i. flier is weie elected without tny opposition. In Kansas the Bepublican State ticket was of cnuise elected, and in j Maryland the Democrat easily cartieothe State, electing their candidate for Control ler and tccut:nga large majority in the Legislature. We said more than onca before the elec tion, that Nathaniel Home's sole object when he violated his pledge to the county Convent ioti ai:d became an independent ca-idialaie for Pro! hona.tary, was the defeat of O' Donne'l, and not because he had the least hope of his own election. The vote ho receivrd proves the tinth of our asser tion. His entire vote in the county is about So0 and of tliis only about 10 was polled for him in the northern Democratic strongholds. While the result effectually disposes of Mr. Home as a riisluiberof the peace and harmony of the Democratic par ty, it is an instinctive lesson to otht-is not to imitate his disorganizing experiment in the future, lest they meet with the tsamo penalty which he himself has suiVereal. Regular nomination, trhen fairly made, 'mutt be freely iupported, and the imaginary Kiievancea of di.-saiHinted aspirants for. oifice regarded as inconsiderate trilleis mere sound and fury signifying nothing. Mr. Home may console himself, if Le can, with the reflection that he hm been the role nicbitect of bis own political misfor tune, l.'ef-owcd the wind and lias leaped the whirlwind which he intruded for Char joy O'Donntll. Senator Omvek 1. Morton died at bis residence in Indianapolis on yesterday wenk, in tho fifty-fourth year of his age.

He was ambitiou, and had it not been for bis severe physical info initios, would most likely iti the future have lieen honored by Ida party nails candidate for the Piesideucy. I Although his opp;uUinitics for corruptly ; auiaebing money were gieat, it must bo j said of him to his infinite credit that his i personal iutogrify was never doubted or called it) question, and Hint be leaves be. bind him an untarnished official record.

We can not give our assent to the correct uea-t of his conclusion, but tvo can understand that his view is one which might be houislv taken by a technical lawyer, not much ad- dieted to equity and lo going to the bollom of things, The great and momentous fact which appears from the correspondence, and which presses itself, by its gigantic mag nitude, upon tho serious consider! ion tho whole country, is that Kutheifoid IJ. Hflyes occupies tlie offjoe of President of the United States by force of the vote of a man who does not bolievo bo was legally ; elected. It stands forth uow, and ill j stand forever, as an historical fact estab- ! lished by conclusive and uuqticstioiiablc j evidence. . To urge that, every other vote in the j Electoral Commission bad the same, poten-j cy as that of Judge Strong does not at all : detract from tho strength of our argument. ! Conceding that, because it, is undeniahlo, j tlie stubborn fact still remains that with- j out Judze Strong the members of the Com- j mission were equally divided, and that if t Mr. Hayes bad not received the vote of i this member of flit Commission, who did ! uot believe be was legally elected, bo would never have boon declared President. It seems, too, that this fresh and start ling evidence imposes a new and solemn duty upon Congress. The House of Rep resentatives should raise a committee to in quire into tho legality of tho election of Hntheiford IL Hayes. This committee should have the customary power to send for persons and papers. With the state ment of Judge Strong added to the other accessible evidence it would be settled be yond cavil in an official proceeding that Mr. ilaj'es is not and never has been Pres ident by right. All this goes upon official recoids of the United Slates House of Representatives, and after that, even al though Mr. Hayes ciawls thronsh his t whole- four years in a place to which iio j lias no true title, the brand of fraud will be iueffaoeably fixed upon him ; while- ihe elevation of his office will serve only to make more conspicuous the infamy of a man who holds it not by right. r.Sun.
