Upto ten o’clock the returns received at Columbus Were quite meagre, considering that at that time the Polls bad been four hours closed. The complexion of the vote indicated a small but steady republican gain Jast year, but as it came from Scattered precincts and townships and did not include important results in the largo cities like Cincinnati or Cleveland, it was fur from serving the purpose of fore- @asting the general result. RRTURN OF THE GREENBACK VOTE, ‘The only significant matter which it did suggest was @ return of the greenback vote to party lines as shows im Mahoning and Allen countiet In the former, where tho greenback men have put Gp a candidate for Congress, there is a elded republican gain, showing the return of voters who went off with Allon last year. In Allen county, the contre of the democratic strength of the State, one Precinct alone shows a republican gain of 139, This return of the greenback men to party lines has been encouraged apparently by the withdrawal of Walcott {m Indiana, and bis public statement that the soft money democrats wore insincere and really intended to vote the democratic ticket. CONGRESSMEN PROBABLY ELECTED. Should this return of the greenback vote be general it insures the olection of the republican candidate, McKinley, to Congress in the Seventeenth district, and makes absolutely certain the election of ex-Governor Cox in the Sixth district, THE VOTE FOR BARNES, So far Barnes has not fallen much behind his ticket, but the returna have not as yet como from the pre- sincts in any large proportion. REPUBLICAN GAIN IN THE RUBAL DISTRICTS— 4 LOSS ADMITTED IN THE GERMAN LOCAL- ITIRS—A MAJORITY OF FIVE THOUSAXD CLAIMED FOB BARNES. Cotumsvs, Onto, Oct. 10, 1876, Af eloven o’clock about one-eighth of the State had ‘been heard from in piecemeal exclusively, still, of the large cities and inglasive of only four wards in Colum- bus, the republican gainup to this time was about 600, which average, if it extended to the whole State, ‘would bring the majority for Barnes up to fully 10,000. REPUBLICAN RXPRCTATIONS. Mi The republicans expect und are willing to concede a ‘loss of at Jenst 2,000 in Cleveland and enough in Cin- cinnati ana other German localities to bring this ma- Jority down to 5,000 betore the night is past. As re- burns are so late and meagre, even for the first name on the ticket, it is thoucht nothing positive will ve known before midday to-morrow as to the election of Congressmen. & BEDUCED REPUBLICAN MAJORITY IN HAMII- ‘TON COUNTY CIPHERED OUT. Cixcuxxati, Oct. 10, 1876, Eleven wards and two townships in this county heard from, some entire and some by precincts, show f& net democratic gain of twenty-two. The Commer- sial’s arithmetician, Mr. Steep, thinks enough is known to say that Hamilton county has gone republican by 1,000 majority or 200 less than last year. ANOTHER CIPHEBER FI@ULES HAMILTON COUNTY YOR THE DEMOCRATS—BaRNES’ DEFEAT IN- DICATED. fe Ctxctxxatt, Oct. 10, 1876, Jobn F. Cockerill, of the Enquirer, believes that the mocrats will closely approximate to carrying this couaty. Sayler ho is convinced, is re-elected to Con- gress, and be hopes that Banning has pulled through. ‘The retugns are compared with last year, and it is difl- tut to speak with exactness at this hour—half-past ten, BARNES’ DRFEAT FRARED, Alexander Sands, chiet editor of the Times, repudii- gan paper, says he fears that Barnes bas dropped fally DEACON RICHABD sSMIIH CONCEDES, A DEMO- GRATIC GAIN IN HAMILTON COUNTY. Civcixsati, Oct, 10, 1876, Richard Smith, of tne Gazette, concedes a democratic gain of 200 in this courity, but believes that republican gains throughout the State will exceod republican Yoones. He thinks Banning for Congress is defeated. ‘RETURNS RECRIVED ROM COUNTIES, TOWN- : GHIPS AND WaRDs.

INDIANA, THE ELECTION IN INDIANAPOLIS—A FULL VOTE AND 4 PEACEFUL DAY—THE VOTING IN THE WARDS —DEMOCRATIC GAINS REPORTED—OUT- SIDE RETURNS RECEIVED AT REPUBLICAN HEADQUARTERS, Inpraxapouis, Oct, 10, 1876, Every other man in this city went to the polls to- day armed. The very intensity of the feeling on both sides preserved us from a bloody riot’ Each party was aware that a single shot would have precipitated commotion, and no voter felt that it was safe to en- courage it. All the drinking places were kept strietiy closed, and this contributed greatly to preserve order. ‘Tho action of the Committee of Conference last even’ ing had a salutary effoct, and the presence of Guver- nor Hendricks and Mayor Caven at several of tho Polls this forenvon also hada good influence. In the wards where trouble was anticipated cjrculars contain- ing the agreement by the conférence committee wero freely distributed, and notubly was this the caso in the Fifth, Exghth and Thirteenth districts, and, in ad- ition, the faction leaders seemod to vie with one another inthe maintenance of {riendly teelinga So far as learned THE GREENBACK MOVEMENT was little counted upon. But an unexpected number this morning were found voting what 18 called the workingman’s ticket, especially those headed with the republican State nominees, The Eighth and Thir- teenth may also bo included, There were numerous seratched tickets, and at the polls where mechanics were numerous there was a particular fight against Stanton J. Peedlo and Colonel Straight on issues grow- ing out of the iabor movement two years ago in this city. THE POLLING began very early in the First ward, and continued until about ten o’elock, when there was a slackening off, The voting them stood about two republicans to one democrat, At first there was considerable chal- longing of votes, but this, in tho end, subsided, and matters wore conducted with great good humor, Tn the Second ward Ben Harrison ran ahead of his ticket. In the Third ward halt the votes were in by haif-past ten o'clock, ’ In the Fourth ward the republican and demoeratic wagons, taking voters free to the polls, were out early. “Blue Jeans’’ was scratched on the democratic ticket by soveral domoerats. REPEATERS OILED. Some attempts at repeating by both sides were foiled, The Filth ward went demooratic with a vengeance, In the Sixth ward there was some apprehension of a Tow, but there was a large force of police officers and deputy sheriffs on hand, and nothing serious trans- pired. In the Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth and Eleventh ‘wards the voting was peaceably conducted, In the Twelfth ward, where the followors of Peter Cooper were most numerous, the independent ticket was considerably scratched. Ip the Thirteenth ward the republicans were ex- coedingly active. THR WSTIMATR of the vote, over that polled at the election of 1874, stands 2,550 republican, 2,340 democratic, which is a tas to the republican party. To-night the headquarters of both parties are thronged, and each claims the State. There is uni- versal telicitation at the occurrence of the election without bloodshed, The streets aro full of people, and bands of music with transparencies are parading here andthere. This county of Marion has gone republican by a conceded majority of 600, which is a falling off of about 1,200, ‘THE GERMAN VOTE. The Germans went almost solidly for tho democratic teket, At the republican headquarters the following do- spatches were recetved :— DESPATCHRS AT THE AEPULLICAN BRADQUARTERS. a Ind., Oct, 10, 1876, Harrison is Ful ‘ahead of histicke*’. Despatches from Hendricks, , Bartholomew and Floyd show republican gains. Muriou county is set down for nearly 3,000 republican majority. Now. Albany—largely increased vote and republican gains, Henry county will give a majority of 1,800 republi~ can. AT THE POLITICAL HEADQUARTEES—SATISFAC- TORY RETURES AT BOTH PLACKS—A DEMO- * CBATIC GAIN AT THR HOME OF SCHUYLER COLFAX. Inpiaxarouis, Oct, 10, 1876, The room of the republican party over the telegraph office in the Western Union is crowded this evening, and among those present 1s General Ben Harrison. The messages coming in are all favorable to the pros- pects of the republicsn party. At the other side of the building the democrats are assembled ina room equally well filled, and, between the two, the democrats appear to be the most enthasi- astic. RETCRNS PROM COLFAX’S HOME. Returns from South Bend, Ind., St. Joseph county, the home of Schuyler Colfax, exhibit a democratic gain. This isone of tho doubtful counties, and the in there is significant of tho result. 4 BETURNS FROM THE PRECINCTS AND TOWN- SHIPS—A DEMOCRATIC GAIN INDICATED. Inpuaxapotts, Oct 10, 1876. ‘The roturns are coming in slowly by precincts and townships. seven precincts in the counties of Wabash, Green, Floyd, Harrison and Tipton indicate a demo- cratic gain of 255. The gains small, but if the aggregate be in the same proportion the State is car- ried for Blue Jeans Williams, DEMOCRATIC GAIN IN NUMEROUS COUNTIZS— THR STATE YOR WILLIAMS WITHOUT DOUBT. Inpraxaporis, Oct. 10, 1876. The returns so far show democratic gains in nu- merous counties, and there is no doubt but the State has gone democratic. There is an enthusiastic crowd in front of the democratic headquarters, cheering the returns as they are received, RETURNS COMING IN MORE LIVELY—BLUE JEANS AHEAD—SORATCHING ON BOTH SIDES— A QUESTION GENERAL YEIEDLEY DECLINES TO ANSWER. Ixptaxapouts, Ovt. 10, 1876. The returns are beginning to come in lively. Tho republicans have gained in several counties and the democrats in others. Governor Hendricks is giving anxious attention to the despatches at the democratic beadquarters, Thus far Biue Jeava is abead. Repub- cans are willing to admit that, while Harrison may be elected, the rest of the State ticket will be defeated. SCRATCHING ON OTH SIDES. Mayy democrats have scratched off Williams, while republican granger farmers havo scratched off Harri- son. The independent or greenback party has dissolved fn thin air, and nobody tal any concern in thoir ‘vote, as it is very insignificant, DECLINES TO ANSWER. General Friedley, chairman of the Republican Com- Mittee, bas received a number of despatches from various parts of the country asking nim if they can safoly bot on Harrison, and ho declines to answer. * THE FEELING IN WASHINGTON. Wasminaton, Oct. 10, 1876. The election returns from Obio and Indiana bave been awaited with intonse eagerness, and were re- ceived with great excitement to Washington to-night Enthusiastic but orderly crowds have thronged tho streets in front of the various telegraph and newspaper offices, and the successive bulletins, though generally inconclusive in their figures, gave riso to a vast amount of cheering and vociferous discussion. As tho returns became more definite the excitement increased, and continued on the streets in the vicinity of the news centres until s very late hoar, INTEREST IN THE RESULT AT NEWPORT, 2. I. — BEJOICING OVER DESPATCHES FAVORABLE TO THE REPUBLICANS. Newront, R. 1, Oct. 10, 1876. The telegraph office here kept open until alter mid- Dight, so great was the intercst to hear the result of the elections 1m Ohio and Indiana. During the progress of the grand republican mass meeting at the Opera House, which was addressed by General Burnside and Senator Honry D. Antnony, despatches were received, and as they Indicated republican victory 1m both those States the excitement was intense, and there was gen- eral rejoicing throughout the city. WAITING TO HEAR THE NEWS IN FLMIBA—GATH- ERING AT THE POLITICAL HEADQUABTERS— REPUBLICAN DETERMINATION TO KEEP UP THE FIGHT. Exurna, N. Y., Oct. 10, 1876, Both the democratic and republican headquarters are filled with anxious spectators awaiting news froin Ohio and Indiana’ People came in trom the country to gather information and remained till after midnight. There was no speaking at the democratic headquarters, but at the republican wigwam a couple of old grey- headed enthusiastic gentlemen took the plattorm and recited, amid much amusement, in the absence of election returns several anecdotes pertinent to the occasion, FEELING OF BOTH PARTIES, Both parties aro shy, The republicans, if apy- thing, more sanguine than the democrats Still one of the speakers at the republican meeting ad mitted that, in case of bad news from to-day’s elections, be hoped the republicans would do what Davy Crockett did when he fought the bear— pray to Providence to keep shady and there would be the bleesedest fight ever seen, Win or lose, the repub- licans will continue the contest to the bitter end. I cannot say the same of the democrats, The frst news received was about Banning (dem.) running bebind for Congress in Cincinnatt, PURPOSE OF THE REPUBLICANS. It seems to be the purpose of republicans in this part of the State to throw strength into Congressional dis- triets. They will probably gain in several districts but everything depends upon to-day’s elections. EXCITEMENT OVER THE RESULT IN LOUISVILLE, KY.—WILLIAMS’ MAJORITY IN NEW ALBANY. Lovisvitix, Ky., Oct, 10, 1876, it here over the election in indiana is the greatest ever known. At noon, it 1 said, New Albany gave 1,200 majority for Williams, THE NEWS IN THE CITY. About the bulletin boards of the newspaper offices anxious eyes were strained for hours in efforts to catch a glimpse of the freshest news from Hoosier- dom and Ohio, and long ere eight o’clock hundreds took positions under the calcium lights which they held until late into the night. The great interest centered in front of tho Hxratp office, where the Evening ‘elegram, with its proverbial enterprise, bulletined each important despatch the moment it left the wires, A brilliant calcium light cast its rays down from an upper win- dow of the Astor House, and dressed the Broadway front of the building ina flood of light Long ere the Telegram presses bean to roll off a heavy edition of extras Ann street, from Theatre alley to Broadway, was taken entire possession of by nearly 600, newsboys and girls, who partook of the excitement of the occasion, fought for positions in the line that led to the door of tho counting room, where tickets for their supplies of extras were issued by e1x clerks, who were kept busy nearly an nour in taking the smal] change of the little Arabs of sidewalk and gutter. Some of the little fellows made their bete on tho result with an abandon worthy of the veterans of the pool room and race traek, while others who had not the wherewithal to stake on the result, bet koivos, hat and other articles of little valuo. The police had their hands full in keeping the little fellows in order; yet for over two hours bediam reigned in Ann street, and it was only when they secured thoir extras, hied away lope, and cried ‘Here's yer Evening Tel-e-gram—Latest news from Ohio,” on all the leading avonues of Now York, Jersey City and Brooklyn, that pedestrians were able to mako their way through Ann street, The crowd on Broadway, which gathered about the bulletin, received constant additions as the night wore on andthe reports came in with greater regularity, until by ten o'clock fully 2,00. people were huddled there under the illuminated bulletin, and stretching their necks toward it for tho latest news. It was only when the tinkling of the street car bells warned them of danger that the mass of humanity moved, and opened a pas- sage that was quickly closed again on the departure of car. Similar scenes were enacted at the cornerot Twenty-third street and Broadway, and at the Aqua rium, ecornee. of. Thirty-tifth street and Broadway; were blazoned on ‘sve vopticun” Non and delight of uptown residents. and places of amusement received by the Telegram and repeated to uptown points, were read between the acts or at intervals in the perlormance—a feature of journalistic enterprise that enabled our amusement loving people to enjoy the dranua, leg bal- Jet, comedy or farce as well as hearing the latest irom the political battlefields every half hour or 60. At ‘Wood’s Museum was a large bulletin announcing that the substance of all despatches received by the 7ee- gram would be posted, and during the evening it was consulted by thousands of pedestrians and visitors to this resort. The sale of the paper was unusually heavy, orders coming in for additional quantities us late as eleven o'clock. The result was s rich harvest of pennies reaped by the newaboys. AT THE YIFTH AVE: TRL Long before eight o'clock the streets on both sides of the Fifth Avenue Hotel were crowded by large num- bers of citizens who were anxious to learn the results of the day’s voting in Indiana and Obia By eight o'clock there were thousands of news seekers congre- gutea-about and 1p the hotel, around the Seward monu- meot, infront of the stereopticon, the people stood patiently awaiting with anxious countenances to sce some news piacarded on the bulletins or inirrored forth by the aid of the illuminated canvas over the Erie Failroad office, The great bull of the hotel was crowded; the barroom filled to suffocation and the National and State Republican Cominittee rooms jammed by the numbers of persons who unceremoniously elbowed each other as they contended for a front stand near the secretary’s table. Bots were given und taken by indi- viduals in the crowd who wanted to add the excitement of a wager to that of the election, A steady stream of people continued to pour into and out of the bails, committee rooms and bar up until long after twelve o’clock. The night was beautifal, and those who pre- ferred to remain outside the hotel must at ieast have been in a far more bealthy atmosphere than those who hustled their way indoors. It was romarked that but few of the great lights of the republican party put in an appearance. The Hon. Thomas Murphy | was in the committee rooms for a short time im the fore part of tho night sec. retary Chandler and Mr. McCormick, of the National Committee, wore at their post bravely facing the many inquirers after tho “latest retarns,” who be- set them oc ail sides. Mary were tho jokes cracked and opinions ventured on the issue, The crowd, too, was not only humorous but orderly, and made up of a very respectable clas# of citizens—men who tor the most part showed that they belonged to the profes- sional, mercantile and industrial portions of the com- munity. Io the State Committeo rooms a man named Charles Leslie, from New Jersey, who bad been Stato Senator for Barnwell county, South Carolina, held forth at Jengtb. He pictured tho condition of the aegroes and Joyal white men in that State as something frightful. Governor Chamberlain right in demand- mg the aid of federal troops, for with- out them = (according to the speaker) it would be impossibie for tbe colored voters or white ro- publicans to go to the polls, He denounced the for- ination of rifle clabs just on the eve of election as be- ing neither tnore nor less than the open organization of an armed force for the purpose of intsmidating re- pubhean voters by means ot a display of physical forco which the speaker- believed woald be unnesitatingly employed by the ultra democrats ip case ae required this extreme measure tu carry their, cand into office, Acertain ex-Contederate Gener. who had said that he never surrendered; aud with regard to the radicals, he was prepared to go in for killjog the *“iast damned one of them.” In South Carolina po republican cured to sit at bis open window; be shoald havo his doors well bolted, and a Winchester repeating rifle and revolver beside him. Another southern leader named simuns had said ina speech when appealing to the worst pas- sions of those composing the rifle clubs that if they had the courage of men they would take Chamberiain off the platiorm where be wes speaking and bang him— damn him. Sowe of the republican listeners did not relish every- thing that Leslie said, but the mojority bel betrue. It was easy to see th t were quite beside them: p fervor into which they of the reveliion was fought over again with all the bit- terness of men, many of whom had never smolt pow- der. Incendiary pictures, incendiury campaign doca- ments, incend ary speeches and sentiments, seemed to be the order of the day. Itappeured for the moment that many of the Southern democrats and many of their Northern co-religioniste in politics wore placed in we common category of traitors and enemies to tho nion, As the returns began to come in about eleven o'clock the excitement concentrated around the Secretary's Were read, showing the fluctuating ceived in silence. message Was read stating that the republicans Indiana by 9,000 majority, while the democrats put in asimilar claim iW a majority of 10,000. At midnight the bar was still filed to its utmost capacity by a voeiferating crowd who talked, betted, and occasionally Jistened to an impromptu stump speech. AT THR DEMOCRATIC HKADQUARTERS, In the rooms of the Democratic National Committee at the Everott House, - crowd of prominent dem- ocrats wero assembled tho keenest interest was manifested in the rosult of the contest in Olio and In- diana Among those press were Hon. Abi 3 Culouel Pelton, W. A. Howitt Andrews, yor, Colonel B. N. Harrison, Edward Coopor, ex-Assembly- Joan Twombieg, Daniel Magone, Jr.. Chairman of State Central Committee; Hon.

Willis, Colo- nel John R. Fellows, Henry Havemeyer, Hon. James Daly, Hop. Wm. Walsh, Win. Baker, Hon. J. J. O'Don- obue, E. L. Parris, Henry H. Porter, Maurice Powers. Around the telegraph operators in the inside room a crowd of anxious laces wero gathered, and as despatch after despatch was handed to Colonel Pelton and read aloud the interest deepeved, and the expressieu of in- tense anxiety, depicted on toe countenantes of all Present, was apparent (o the most casual observer. It was evidently felt by all that the result of the struggle in Ohio and Indiana would be a certain lorecast of tho Presidential election in November. There was no noisy demonstration or outward exp ing, but the intensity of the feeling was all the more apparent from the eflort made to subdue it As the hour grew later the room beeame literally packed and there was scarce standing space left, and outside the door hundreds of local politicians clamored im vain for admission. As soon us it became generally und stood thut Indiana was claimed by the democrats the more enthusiastic of those present began to give vent to their feelings in subdued but vigorous expressions of joy, and bands were grasped and mutual congratula- Later on, large democratic gains in Obi excitement became more demonstrative, the least sanguine begau to enter. tain hopes of ultimate success, As the rot ing cheers of t eeply excited crowd outside were sent up on the reading of each piece of good news brought by the telegrams, the contagion was caught inside and many a staid and gray-bearded veteran gave Yent to tho enthusiasm that could no longer be kept unger control. It we beat them in Ohio and In- diaha,” said one prominent democrat, “ the thing is settled, If we curry Indiana’ and even lose Obio, it gives us a fair chance.” This seemed to be the feeling of all present and as the reports of democratic gains came in trom one district alter another in Obio there was a strong belief expressed allaround that if the republicans carried that State the democrats would run them very close. About midnight despatches were received from the Yerious city newspaper offices, and as tho repnblican claim of victory in Indiana, with a majority of 9,000, was rgd out it wus ‘received with a burst of derisive laughter, and no one seemed disposed to give it the slightest credence. The crowd outside had Meantime swelied to enormous proportions and tho excitement knew no bounds. it was uext to impossi- ‘vig to get through it, Here the beliefin a democratic victory in both States was general, and tho enthusi- tone exchanged with great fervor. nouncements of Ah asm was decidedly more hearty and genuine than 1s usually manifested at political gatherings in this city, ‘The scenes in th acter. lobbies were of the liveliest char- of allkinds and every condition of cious parlors and halls, A police ht wore on duty in tho halls of the hotel, and alarge number of policemen, including Superin= tendent Walling, visited the Committee rooms in plain clothes during the evenmg. IN BROOKLYN, The Republican Genera: Committee Rooms on Court street were crowded as eariy as balf past seven o'clock in the evening by expectant advocates of Hayes and Wheeler, but it was nine o'clock before any figures were received. ‘Ihe news trom Ohio which favored the cause of the republicans, was recived with ap- plause, and “I told you so,” was the expression heard upon every side, ‘Tho telegrams trom Indiana were not so encouraging, and it was genorally conceded that the prospects of the administration party in Williams? State were not brig! At Democratic Headq ers, corner Joralemon street and Coyrt, there was a very great audience of enthusinstic Tildenites assembled to listen to speeches of an encouraging character from lucal orators. POOLS IN THK CITY LAST NIGHT, To say that the pool rooms were crowded last night would hardly express to a proper extent the enormous number of people of all classes of sovievy who yath- ered within and without these institutions during tho night, early and late, At Morrissey’s every seat tu the large hall was oceupied, and all the space not taken up by those geated was completely filled by the crowds who were Standing up. lt was difficult to find means of ingress into either Morrissey’s or Johason’s rooms, and 1 (he latter place the atmosphere was almost suf- Jocating. M Many despatches were read to the crowd by the pool- seller in each house, and according {o the way the con- tents aifected the sympathios of the hearors applause followed cach announcement. These telegrams, how- ever, did not have much fuiluence on the betting, which run, except in a 'few instances, even- ly throughout. democrats largely preponderated iu numbers, and invariably greeted any statement that their side had won, or increasod their majorities in any district, by enthusiastic applause and ehcering. Beside the pools which were sold, a summary of which will be foand below, « bet of $95, that Tilden will carry New Jersey in the Presidential olection, against $50 that he would not, was made; another. of $100, that Tilden will not receive as many votes for President, in the State of New York, against $50 that he will, was effected. The person who gave the odds in this bet, Offered the same nine times in addition. A bos of $50 that Tilden will secure 60,000 roajority in Missouri, against $30 that he will pot, was also concluded. Below will be found a synopsis of the pools sold dar- ing the evening, where it will be found that there was not great fluctuation, and that the betting men ap- peared to be of the opinion that Williams would receive about 5,000 majority in Indiana, and fhat Barnes would be elested by about the same majority in Ohio.

PROSPECT AND PROBABILITIES OF THE CaM- PAIGN—VIEWS ON THE EFFECR OF THE DEMOCRATIC CONFERENCE. A great many of our prophetic politicians have held their tougues on the result of the Presidential cain- paign, waiting to hear trom the elections yesterday before venturing their opinions, As the day pro- grossed and groundiess rumors of success and defeat on both sides were circulated calculation gave way to political enthusiasm, especially among the democrats, and belore night a victory for Williams in India was regarded as certain, tho only question being one of majority. Having thus disposed of Indiana, Obio came up for dis- cussion, and while little importance was attached to the result (it being of course conceded to the republi- Gans) a hope, born of enthusiasm, spread about that tt alsé would go democratic. Below we give several in- teryicws with working politicians whose various vie on the national, State and county campaigns will be read with inter Robert Borlaud, an old and active Sixteenth ward politician, looks to Indiana alono for the election of Tilden. There, he says, the men who are anxious to be on the winning side are looking to-day, There are in New York State, he says, fitty thousand voters at least who have not yet mado up their minds which way to vote. They aro waiting to jump down on THR WIXNING SIDE OV THK PENCE, and if the democrats carry Ind:ana that will satisfy them, and down they'll go for Tilden, It will havo the sume result in all tho doubtiul States, and asaure Til, den’s election in November. If by any good fortune Ohio goes democratic the election is over already. The State ticket, too, depends altogether on Indiana, and should we loge that State Morgan is undoubtedly our nextGovernor. Speaki>g of the issue im the county, Mr, Borlund was hopetal of a peaceable result to the conference between Tammany and antl-Tammany, but thought that more was needed than the healing up of breaches 1m tho party to satisly the public. They are tired cf political hack candidates ana want to seo fresh men iu the field, Toey want some well known and respectable mercbaut for their Mayor. Tho Sherif, too, ought to bea man freo from obligations to politicians, and the judges and Congre meu should come from among the rising young In yors, of whom we have so many in this city, Hope- ful us the democrats aro of @ successiul issue to the conference about to be held, there are whispers alloat that trouble will come trom the efforts that will be made by James O'Brien tor the nomination for Sherif. [tis generally proclaimed by tis supporters that nothing suort of the Shrievalty will satisty him, while on the other hand his opponents state that John Kelly will positively refuse to uccede to his demands. In that case it is feared that O’Brien will make another bolt and endeavor to carry the anti-lammany organization with him, A former joilower of O'Brien said that if he tried the bolting game this time he could not carry a handful of voters outside of his personal frieuds, They were tired, he said, of seemg him run away on his own hook when ho coulun't have his own way in the regular organization, This time he has agreed to abide the decision of the conterence, and it they don’t seo iit to give him a place on tpe ticket and he should boit, be will find that he has less strength in the anti-Tammany party than te imaginos, Why, | believe, he continued, if the truth were known, he has few more fricnds out of jt than he bas in tam- many Hall, You see the anti-Tammany men want all the nen they can get in thoir organization, and white they don’t make inuch show about it they don’t want such men as O’Brien and Thomas J. Creamer to’bo considered at their bead. They know they are with them for what they can get, and will not submit to their dictation in case they are not satisfied with tho resuit of tue conference. ANTI-TAMMANY OBJECTS to John Kelly's having so much to say, but it doesn’t pretend to advocate the cause of O'Brien or Creamer. We want good men ot our own choosing, and not the friends of any leader or leaders, and unless we have them there is no use of holding aconterence. If the democrats unite simply to decide whut poilticians on cither sido hall get the nominations there will be dis- satisfaction, and it wouldn't surprise me to sce un in- dependent Ureak and a union with tho republicans for the clection of @ non-party tieket. Mr. James W. O’Brien holds a prominent position among the temperance men of the State and country. He is the proprietor of a temperance orgav, and mingles much with the sober and thrifty class that compose these societies, Being questioned about his views on the aspeet of the pending municipal canvass, he replied, [do ot sco that we bave anything tomy on it, We might as woll be residents of the Russian Empire as residents ot the Seventh ward, A tow self constituted leaders undertake to namo all the officers, and we are not consulted as to sending delegates to the conventions. Those men hold what they call pri- martes, which area mere insult and a mockery. If fifty men vote for the “printed tickets,” aud 500 against, it is declared to bo elected anyhow. 80 no one with self-respect, unless he is in- stroment of the machéue, gocs near the primaty.. We wait lor the ticket they choose so give us, like the Russian subjects wasting tor tho Czar’s odietsx, We have no king in America, it 1s said. We have political kings at all our prominent corners, and we bave an emperor in Fourteenth street to fashion our kings for us, Ail this 18 an outrageous parody on our demo- cratic self-government. Mr. Keily, I suppose, is 4 good man, So may Alexander of Russia be @ good man; but the systein of autocracy {s not yood either in Russia or in Now York. I look upon Mr. Kelly asa rospectable bead of an odious system inheritea from his predecessor, Tweed. A fine figarehead placed upon ao rotten hulk does not change the ship. The individual citizen ts utterly voiceless and of no uccount in anything except in voting for the men provided torus, Whether chey go this singly as last yeur or do jt in conjunction with Morrissey it mukes no difference. Morrissey tnakes a blunder, however, if he thinks he can turn over the votes he got last year to c He lost his following when be oniab to make them over to the very power he urged thom to fight against a few months ago. The people with whom { associate do not take much part in the mancuvring, but they have minds of their own, and do not like to be bartered off in droves like sbeep. We ali want union for Tilden; but union or no union, Tilden will draw every vote of the party inthe Fourth Assembly district, where I re- side. Mr. Jobn Hoffman is a good representative of tho business class of our German citizens residing on the eust side, Heis a property owner of the Seventh ward aud pays a considerable amount of taxes, Thig iatter tact induces him to study somewhat the conduct of our city rulers, He holds that Mr. Green 1s a necessity in tbe Comptroller's o1 He favored Green for Gover. nor, and would tavor tim for Mayor if he ceuld appoint @ mac of bis own stamp to succeed him in guarding the city treasury. He remembers when Mr. John Kelly was Sheriff, and looks upon him as an hon- est officer. ' Tammany Hall at that time was a different institution from = what it is now. The Tweed dynasty seemed to have torn it down froin its high estate, and Kelly’s record asa guod otfl- cial was not sufficient to rehabilitate the decayed or- nization. Mr, Hoffman delieves in the neces reform right through trom Presidont to Mayor. views are # fair ropresentation of the feelingsgof influential body of vot jetmocracic strong- hoid, who seldom express themselves except through the dropping of their bailots ou election day. Mr, Elwood E. Thorne is tbe chairman of the Indepen- dent Republican Association of this city, and Bays that hig organization represents a very large and infiuentiat class of repablicans wv are opposed to Custom House rule, The tirat and foremost creation of thrs body was in favor of Benjamin F. Bristow tor Président of any one else but Roscoe Conkling. While his people are merely divided on local alfairs as far as the Custom Houso is concerned, they will all vote and work :o1d for Hayes and Whee! Morgan and Rogers. What tuoy want isa recognition by the State Central Com- mittee. Mr, Thoruo thinks that taoro is not the slizht- est doubt about the success of the republican national ticket at the ensuing election. In regard to the city and county nominations this gentieman states that if he citizens’ Ynovement in favor of Comptroller An- drew H. Green is made 1n good faith and be receives the indoreement of the republican party he can be elected, even if Tammany and anti-Tammany clasp hands and unite, Such action will not influence any more voters if party hacks are piaced in nomination by the sachems of tho Fourteenth street Wigwam. ‘The respectable democrats will vote for the best mon, no matter what ticket they run on, Mr. Thorne tartl stated that bis organization was at least from 4,000 to 5,000 strong, and counting with it the reiorm element, it would come up to at least 10,00 votes, While they will not nominate & seperate ticket thoy pledge theinselves to support only honest and capable candidates, Alderman William Wade Is a resident of the Six- teenth ward and the Thirteenth Assemby district.

A FRAIL PLATFORM. The Young Men’s Independent Tilden and Hendricks Club of the Eighteenth Assembly district set barrels blazing and music braying last night at the corner of ‘Thirty-first street and Second avenue, A temporary stand for speakers, thronged with Independent young men, bung with Chinese lanterns and draped with ational flags, stood out against the sky tn the side street, A large crowd swiftly gathered, The object of this civic demonstration was to give an enthusiastic send-off to a handsome Tilden banner, Amid loud cheers from the crowd, crackling flames from the bar- rels, stentorian oratory from patriotic and burstin; lungs, hysterical sbrieka from the brags band an an intoxicating obligato on the big drum, the banner was given to ag inuch of the breezes of heaven as jJavored the Eigtteenth Assewbly istrict at @ litte after eight o'clock P.M. ‘Follow citizens,”? said a Kast Filty-fourth ‘street inan on the platiorm, as soon as the buzz of admiration over the face of Goveruor Tilden had subsided—thas {aca which wore the expression of an angel with the the smile and so bulbou: te b re hay fever, s0 innocent wut and red the nose—‘lellow citizens,’ in the affairsof the nation, Undert! rule of Grantism and Belknapism, ay, and I sound defiantly (o the four winds of heaven, of Tom Murpby- e verge of @ national precipice: y westand on it But it is altogether too thin, What are we to do now to save ourselves from tumbling into the abyss, the abyss, fellow citi- zons?
