a'eld yesterday, may be summed aip us
a repnblicrtu victory, of reduced ma

national candidates or issnes involved.
nnd no local question's of sufficient im
portance to bring out tbeiull strength
of the people -, The Slate .election of
tbe year immediately succeeding tbat

perhaps,' the liberal or "anti-Grant re

and tfrat it was about fifteen hundred

ciency in the popular vote will be
equal to'that of 1869, if not greater,
and from the .same causes. The gcu

fy nothing but general apathy in. j
