Another day but leaves the decision of the nation in the elections last Tuesday for President and Vice President involved In greater perplexity and doubt, The States sure for Governor Tilden still give him 184 votes, or within 1 vote of election; the States sure for Governor Hayes give him 166 votes, or 19 votes short of an electoral majority. The States of Louisiana, 8 votes, South Oarolina, 7 votes and Florida, t votes, make up the debatable 19 votes, [n our-estimate of yesterday the 15 votes of Louisiana and South Carolina were put in. the Hayes column, because the potentiality of giving the States, no matter what the popular vote, to the republican candidate was widely recognized. The emphaticclaims of prominent and responsible democrats to avictory in both these States fairly take them, in the utter absence of convincing confirmation pf the republican claim, out of those certain for Governor Hayes. We, therefore, consider them doubtful. Florida still remains undecided. A glance at the table below will tell that Hayes requires all three States to elect him, while the vote of any one would elect Tilden. Florida alone would give him 3 majority; Louisiana alone P 7, and South Carolina alone 6. The House ’ of Representatives will have a majority of, st least 25. ° THE ELECTORAL VOTE.
