The Chairman of the Executive Com mittee would embrace the present oppor• tunity of returning thanks to the members of the Committee for the prompt and effi cient manner in which they have met and discharged their duties, and of congratu lating the Republicans of the county on the signal and encouraging results of the political contest which has just closed. _ It is certainly a source of gratification and encouragement to know that the Re publican party of this county is once more a unit, and that for the first time in sewn years it has been demonstrated, beyond the possibility of a doubt, that there is a Re publican party in the county, which can not be rent assunder and distracted by in ternal eommotions, but which prestnts to_ day a solid front, and is united in a coin mop cause against a common enemy. All efforts of our opponents to distract and divide us have proved abortive, and after one of the most bitter and relentless poli tieal contests ever waged in the county, our entire ticket—with one exception, the result entirely of local causes—has been elected by majorities ranging from 200 up to 400, while rolling up something like one of our old-time majorities for the Na tional ticket. We have, in connection with our sister county in this District, secured the election of our Senator by the comfortable majority of 663, and elected both our members of the Lower House by very decided majorities, and only failed to elect our member of Congress through the influence of the immense corruption fund thrown into the county by our opponents. In view of these facts the prospect is most encouraging, and the future is hope ful for the party. Having learned wisdom from past experience, and the old elements of discord and disorganization which have heretofore distracted and divided us and filled the county offices with Democrats being now entirely eradicated, and the old "fusion" dodge most effectually "played out," we have the proud satisfaction of knowing that we are a reunited party and can look •our fellow Republicans of the State in the face with the assurance that we have not only come back to them again with our old majority, but that hereafter qur county may be depended on as a relia ble Republican county, divested of the last remains of distraction and disorganization. Looking now to the record of our noble party, and at what it has accomplished, let us prepare for the conflicts awaittng us in the future, and be able to prove to our op ponents that we have wrested from their control the county of Huntingdon, and are resolved to preserve hereafter the triumph won in this Centennial year.

RIGHT nobly have our friends redeemed themselves in Huntingdon county. Hayes has a majority of 511, and the whole straight Republican ticket is elected by handsome majorities, except Moore, Republican, for Associate Judge, who is defeated by Mil ler, Democrat, by S votes. We are sorry, however, that they did not give Mahon, our candidate for Congrmf, the full party vote, and thus secure his election. But Huntingdon did well, and we trust our friends there will, hereafter, give 'mixed Jim Crow tickets, a wide berth.-170i daysburg Register. • - • • DARKNESS AND ELEC- roaiize how 1 c::1 majoritiei depend upon p , :!puiar tduca tion.

But majorities for Mr. Hayes came from localities having 5,755,- 391 white male adults, of wbcm only 382,- 953, or 6.6 per cent. were unable to read or write.

Befort our next issue we expect to be able to announce the result of the Presidential canvass. South Carolina has flopped over to the llayes column and Louisiana is given up by the Democrats or nearly so which leaves Florida only in doubt. There are only some five or six counties yet to hear from in the latter State, and every confidence is ex pressed that they will give a majority of several hundred for Hayes.

LOWRIE, died at his residence, in Meadville, on Tuesday of last week, aged 76 years. Our New York Letter. NEW YORK, November `'l, 1876. The Great Agony—The News Boys—The Poole, TEE GREAT AGONY. The one prevailing topic in the city now, is "who is to be President ?" The Republicans are smilingly confident and the Democracy are as ugly and waspish as they can be. They claim that if Ilayes is declared elected it will be by fraud, and in the gin mills and gambling hells they talk loudly of resistance, and of In augurating Tilden by force. It is very hard for these red-nosed, moustached gentlemen who have promises of places under Tilden in the event of his election to resign their hopes, and being compelled to go hack to ordinary thieving for a living. Sinecures in custom houses, with unlimited opportunities for steal ing are much easier, and when they think how close they came to it they gnash their teeth in rage, But the business men in the Demo cratic party take no such view of it. They say, without exception, that if the returning boards declare Hayes elected that he must be Inaugurated, and that there will be no fight over it. The fact is the business Democracy who voted for Tilden would a little rather see him defeated than not, now that they see the reckless, Revolutionary element that stand be hind him. And they don't like the attitude he occupies. In all this excitement, he haS said not a word to allay the fever, or quiet apprehension. He has not said that if his opponent should be declared elected he would acquiesce quietly, but he holds himself in po sition to take the office by force if need be. And it is a significant fact that all the threats of trouble, in this city, conic from those who stand the closest to him. lie conducted the campaign with bluff and money, and he will stop at nothiuZ to secure the scat lie has so long coveted. Heaven help the country if this arch-demagogue, by any means gets his grip on the Presidency. TILE Slt;V!"'3ol' are reaping a rich harvest. The circulation of the daily papers have doubled, and the little gamins know how to keep it up. In out up town block, the population is entirely Demo cratic, and the next block on the same street is entirely Republican. The s►nart newsboy enters the first block, and yells "Ere's yer extry World ? Tilden's electid, sure." The Democrats all rush to buy his paper. In the next block—"Ere's yer extry Times—Hayes kerries Looisaner, Floridy and South Kerli ny ?" and a very lively sale among the Repub licans is the result. the more honest than the rest, was asked what was the election news, and he cried "Extry Tyboon ? Peter Cooper's defeat confirmed." He sold a great many papers. TIM POOLS Among the betting men, and their number is legion, a great deal of interest centres in the pool rooms. Pool betting is a species of gambling without cards or dice, and has be come quite fashionable even among so called respectable men. The pool rooms hare been the arena of much excitement during the past week. There are a number of these fashionable gambling houses on Broadway. The two most largely patronized are known as Johnson's, corner of twenty eight street, and the palatial establish ment of ex-prize fighter, ex congressman Johu Morrissey. There are several kinds of pools known as French and Combination. A portion of the room devoted to such purposes is fitted up with an elevated platform, upon which are seated the auctioneers and clerks. The rooms • • are provided with scats, and form a comforta ble lounging place for the fashionably dressed loefsrs of the city. Hundreds are usually in attendance but not throe per cent. are bidders or buyers. Tie auctioneer announces that a hundred dollars is bid for the first choice Ott the general result. The favorite candidate then named, generally thus : One hundred dollars for Tilden. How touch do I hear ter Ibises ? The bidding is vsried aceordine to the working of the rdirieel thermometer, v i g from thinly to ei s li:e dollars for Hayes. Tilden one hundred. T;:e closed, the gross amount lor both eandilistes, is written on two tickets, and one handed to each party. The successful bidder receives the entire amount, less three per cent v. hich i. the pool seller's fee. French pools—in another Into. of the room. neatly arranged side hy side, are a number of frames constructed with spaces for names and to indicate consecutive numbers. The favor ite candidate is indieated in at slip inserted on the board, together with an indicator, to tell the number of times such tickets have been sold on this favorite. As between Tilden or Hayes there would be but a choice between the two, but when used for horse racing it is frequently a choice among many. The whole of the money, realized by the sale of tickets for both parties is devilled pro rato among those holding tickets bearing the name of the successful candidate. For instance, a pool of three thousand dollars made op by the sale of tickets at five dollars each, would indicate six hundred subscribers. If divided as follows : three hundred and fifty sold for Hayes and Hayes was successful the three thousand dol lars would be equally divided among the three hundred and fifty Hayes tickets. If Tilden were successful, the three thousand dollars whonld be divided among the two hundred and fifty holders of his tickets. This class of pools, was extensively sold in New York, upon local, state and general election. Combination pools—this iS a favorite ar rangement, from the fact that the amount paid to the successful subscibers is much larger than by any other. The process is this : Ihe pool seller puts up four doubtful states, say Louisana, North Carolina, Wisconsin and Cal ifornia. The buyer selects his states as he chooses, and pays five dollars for a ticket, in dicating his ideas. Thus ha might bet that Tilden would carry California and North Car ' olina, and Hayes Wisconsin and Louisiana. To win the result must be precisely as his ticket reads. Ile may be right OH three of the states, but if the fourth goes against him, he loses. This is a favorite method, for the prof its of the few winners are enormous. To win on this combination, the better would have marked Loniian,i, California and Wisconsin for Hayes awl North Carolina for Tilden. This money in the pool is divided among the few who were lucky or wise enough to make that choice. Sometimes a five dollar ticket has won as high as a thousand dollars. The amount invested was enormous. .~ O C 1 7. 117 19 37 1 '_,. 2 :!~ln 7! 28 41) :; 24Hli 39j 11 11 42 27601 62171 1679 6827 TILE GOOD NEWS CONTINUED-DEMO• CRATIC COUNTIES WITH SMALLER MA JORITIES TITAN ESTIMATED-REPUB LICANS SECURING EVIDENCE OF FRAUDS ON TUE BALLOT-LAST HOPE OF THE DESPERATE DEMOCRACY, TALLAHASSEE, Nov. 19.—The general situa tion remains unchanged, and the intense ex citement of the past week continues unabated. The official returns from four more coun ties, all Democratic, have been received, and the majorities fall below the previous esti mates, showing conclusively that the Repub lican claini of a good majority has been well founded. As the Democrats gradtte,lly lose faith in their own estimates, and find the frauds committed by their tools in many counties be ing exposed, they grow more desperate and bitter. Hon. W. W. Hicks, a prominent leader of the Republican party, and a member of Gov. Stearns' Cabinet, was publically assaulted on the streets in Jacksonville to-day for his opin ions and labors during the campaign, and the lives of other Republican leaders are threat ened. Nothing but the presence of the United States troops preserve the public peace. Tal lahassee is full of Democratic politicians from New York, Philadelphia and other Northern cities, addition to many from Georgia and Alabama. Michael Bannon, a well known Democratic politician of Baltimore, who has been here for several days under an assumed name, left for home yesterday, disgusted with the situa tion. It will be a week or mere before the returns are all in. Meanwhile the Republicans, as sisted by Gen. Barlow, Judge Robertson, and Assistant District Attorney D. G. Rollins, of New York, are hard at work securing evidence of fraud already committed, and preparing to defeat the frauds which may be attempted in the future. Ex-Gov. E. F. Noyes, of Ohio, lion. John A. Kasson, of lowa, and Gen. Lew. Wallace, of Indiana, will arrive here to-morrow. Perry ii. Smith, a notorious Democratic politician of Chicago, who went to Milwaukee before the election to place Tilden's money where it would do the most good, will arrive here to-morrow to reinforce John T. Coyle, Sam. Bard and other !notorious Democratic outsi ders. A question has arisen whether the Governor is to canvass the Presidential vote, under the act of 1847, or the state Canvassing Board, under the act of 1872. The Democrats have asked permission to submit an argument on the question, and the Governor has requested them to do so. The question is not very ma terial, as the majority of the Canvassing Board as well as the Governor, are Republicans. It has leaked out that any amount of money is on hand from patriotic Democrats from abroad for the man or men who will dispose of the nation's hope and right in this supreme hour of peril. It is safe to notify the gam bling fraternity of patriots that the Republican party of Florida does not contain the man. Conceding the State to Hayes, certain know ing Democrats resort to significant winks and shrugs to give emphasis to their assurance that one man can be found in 185 Electors to whom a fortune will prove more valuable than a good name and a good conscience. Louisiana Conceded to Hayes. THE STATE GIVEN UP BY THE DEMO CRATS—DIbGR.ACEFUL ACTION OF SOME OF TILDEN'S EMISSARIES—DECENT DEMOCRATS LEAVING IN DISGUST. NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 19.—The prominent Northern Democrats who came to Louisiana at the request of Messrs. Tilden and Hewitt are going home disheartened and disgusted. They see that Gov. Hayes has undoubtedly carried the State, and many of them are un willing to give countenance to any attempt which may be made to defraud the Republi cans out of the fruits of their honest rictory. In the meantime, the politicians who remain here are beginning to talk a great deal about a compromise, and this morning a number of them tried to wake some kind of terms with Mr. Packard. Both be and Gov. Kellogg, however, positively refused to listen to any plan of adjustment other than that which can be based upon a fair count of the votes. The proposition to which I refer was not definitely made, still it was very plainly in timated to Packard that he could be Governor without trouble if he would agree to have Tilden counted in by the Returning Board.— The ex-Marshal replied that he bad no influ once with the board; that it was composed of honorable gentlemen who would do their duty honestly and fairly, and that even if be could control them he would decline to do so. I am informed, upon the very best author ity, that plans of compromise, similar to the above, were made last night to at least one member of the Returning Board. He indig nantly refused to listen to them, and in the name of himself and his colleagues protested against any further attempts to influencing the action of the board. It is but justice to state that General Nich olls, the Democratic candidate for Governor, is not a party to any of these schemes. They are all concocted by friends of Mr. Til den, who were willing to sacrifice the claims of all the state offices in order to secure the triumph of the great "reformer." Failing in these efforts, however, and seeing that they can never hope to honestly secure Louisiana's vote for their chief, they have now virtually abandoned New 'Orleans, and are preparing to devote all their attention to Florida. In three days there will be a score or more of prominent Democrats in Talla hassee, and ;they go prepared to use every means known to the lowest politician to capture a majority in that State. The leaders of the Republican party should be warned in time. They must not neglect Florida, The Democrats are concentrating all their forces there, and they mean to de feat the will of the majority in that State, no matter what it may cost to do so. Florida has undoubtedly gone Republican by a ma jority of several hundred, but the Republicans must not be secure in their victory. Their opponents are desperate, and they must be watched closely. As to Louisiana, there is no doubt. There need be no anxiety. Upon a fair count the State will give Hayes a majority of a least 6,000, and a fair count will certainly be had. -,••••• - ' • ,` P T;to, Republican Florida. Figures pr eve racts.
