THE ELECTION,
There is no doubt at all in relation to
the Success of Gov. CUPITIN. ; he is cer•
tainly elected, but as regards his majority
we cannot form any estimate, because of
the meagreness of our returns. The fact
of the Republican agents for the press be.
iiig so, backward in transmitting the resulet
in the eastern counties looks as if their tri
triniih we's not so overwhelming as their
fist announcement indicated. A day or
two mil eve us sufficient time to decj.de

'l"trat - Fresident Lmrcomf's original in
tention was to prosecute hostilities against
the rebels simply for the restoration of the
Union, wo are not disposed to dispute,
but that the controlling, radical element of
his party went with the contest simply to
abolish slavery, we firmly believe. From
the enrumenesment of hostilities these
rostlees fit,uatics have manifested no inter
est-in th.4coatest only-as it affected the
institution of slavery.
The ,

when the Aitatuistrati on must avow a defi•
nite policy. Already the Presidential as
pirants of that party are beginningto shape
their policy. Presidlistf, -LINCOLN, not•

Secretary CHASE, the prospective Presi
. deutial candidate of thiex.trentie Radicals,
made a speech the,other evening in Cic—
binnati, in which, under the mild and
Pleassait.pki - tabilift."free labor," the ex
trecae.dootz . ipe. to which we have alluded
is Contained. The following ie ton extract:
One - word further. I spoke a moment since
of the rexeneration of this nation. Free labor is
batter thtin slave lobor. And now suppose there

Ohio to interfere wi - h yen, and with me, in our
ininArtal relations? Won'd not that question
be settled, and all- the hearz-burnings s - rowins
o - ot of it come to an end? Wi hail the multiplied
resoureet and eonimerci..l demands growing out
cf free labor, would we not be stronger in an
econ•maimil point of view ; At.d when we add to
nil this the removal of that great element t f
strife from our country, and free labor every
where prevails, when no man than bo compelled
to work unlo - s he is fury re warded for his toil,
and every man becomes an interested contributor
rn the glories fall:in of our nation, don't you
think we wi'l be r,,,t only celeomically, but Poll
thially, stronger tia_n ever before? I think so:
and I think that when this rebellion comes to an
end we will have a great nation. based on free
labor, made Irmogenceue in all its parts, and e
Palle of playing a mighty port in the drama of
• human affairs."
The Secretary, in this extract, speaks
like one having a right to shape the insti
tutions of the Southern people. Were he
in a Convention to form a Constitution for
the formation of a new State, jest emerg
ing froin a territorial condition, we would
expect from - shim jest such a speech as that
- delivered in Cincinnati. It serves to show,
• .. however, what his intentions are in the fu
n:ire prosecution of the war. He is the
future candidate of the Radicals for the
Presidency of the United States, and he is
bold enough to openly avow his policy,
which is simply "the last dollar and the
last man" in the country, in' order that
negro slavery may be effectually crushed.
In the name of the Union and the Const
itution, the Administration party have been
deluding the-people.; that party desires no
Union, and the day is not far distant when
the r.Pcessities of the extreme Radicals
will compel it to avow its purposes.

Romantic stories occasionally find their

items. They are not always to be relied
upon. The state of the local mark,,t iv

FOS EIGN NEWS..
Senator Sumner's Addren
The recant speech of Senator Sumner
is extensively commented up:n by the
Puglia' press, and universally denounced.
Even the Daily News joins the general
chorus against it.
From the Linden Daily News. Sept. 2 9 .
A speech which is fall of anger, and
consequent misapprehension, might be
nearly harmless, even in New York, and
in the very crisis of the relations of the
two countries, if spoken by an insigeiti
cant men, or a mere tool of party ; but
when the chairman of the Foreign Affairs
Committee of the Senate proposes to
explain his views on these affairs to as
large an audience as can be got together
by timely appointment, and when the
speaker is Mr. Sumner, the personal
friend of many citizens of foreign coon.
tries, and a public man aspiring to a rep
utation for statesmanship, such an utter
anco is one of the grave events of the
time. A vast audience was assembled to
hear the senator from Massachusetts, the
foreign rela.iono chairman, the friend of
President Lincoln. This audience met in
a mood of avowed. irritation, and with
passions all awake and restless. The
topic was the most exciting that could
have beep selected at the moment, and
the orator was the man who, of all Amer
man citizenc, could be listened to on that
topic with the readiest and most unre
served faith. Such was Mr. Sumner's
opportunity for making or marring a good
understanding between his own country
and the people of E❑rope. lie has sm•
ployed it to lash the irritation of his
fel
low-citizens into rage, and to obscure and
pervert the facts of history in the making
by looking at aad handling them under
the distortion of his own prejudice and
passion. With his personal reasons or
excuses for such imprudence we have
nothing to do. It is not our business to
aceitint for the mistake of a man capable
et better things. What we have to do is
simply to repudiate Mr. Sumner's state
ment of the tnut,cal position of England,
and the United States, end to invite hi , .
cc.uotrymen to study the facts of the case
for themselves, before they believe, on
Mr. Hamner a authority, that they are on
the verge of war with England, through
an appetite fur war so keen in us that
everything we hat's said and done for the
last three years has been done to insult
and iojare the Federal Government and
people, and strengthen the hands of their
foes. The mist:dies, the glosses, the
spirit of the commentary offend by Mr.
Sumner, are singularly unsuitable to n
ILDlding the office he tills ; and if
this speeTh really represents his civics and
hi. , ; temper, (4, l .ruspecLv ,j peace may be
