We have the assurance of Mr. Manning, Chairman pi the State Democratic Committee of New York that Grover Cleveland and Thomas A. Hendricks have received 'a, ma jority f'f th votes cast in that State and that' they will be so counted We believe that the 36 votea of that State belong to the Democratic can didate s and will be so cast. f The Republican Committee have issued an address that is false in fits claims and the intention of which,, we have no doubt, is to mislead and to create false expectations whilst bringing false accusations prepara tory to" some rascality. If their game be to try to steal the Presidency again from the Dem? ocrats they will . be mistaken.; The public mind - will - not bear another thock. The tone andr; temper of the Democrats will be found to Nbe very different from that: which prevailed in 18?6 To prevent a coq flict ijtMjy submit to ar: great out4 rage upon their rights.' fThey will never submitted to such an outrage a second time. Those infatuated raor tals who believe otherwise will awake to a rude and violent surprise some fine morning and discover that two outrages of the same character can not be safely attempted by unprinci pled and reckless politicians and they ill not be bprne by a free and resolute people. . We say that Grover Cleveland bag been fairly elected President of the United State?, as we believe, at tbis writing. lie has received more than enough of the electoral votes of the United States. If this conviction on our part shall be found sustained by ' the official returns we have not the faintest shadow of a shade of doubt as to las inauguration on the 4th of March. 1 885, if he lives until that tune.

THE CONFUSION OF PUE8S BE- s?c t--ii r .TBN8V'- .f- i-a The Associated Press has been most shamefully abused by Jay Gould and his set. It began to pub lish returns upon a! calculation ' of 1,996 voting districts outside of New York and Kings counties. This they continued until Thursday afternoon. This reduced the Republican plural ity to 31. The Democrats had'gain ed.!5,067J 1 The ratio of . gain was about 8, and ; this continued would give Cleveland 2,207. Suddenly, on Thursday, this basis of returns was abandoned. t Then they began to in clude New York and Kings countiesj and thus stated it, with 167 districts to be bead from: ' f ;;;';;-"; ;';.";; Cleveland . . . ..' . ,1. .... . .. . . . ... 539,171 Blaine. .......... . ........ 537,293 1 Qeveland's plurality.

But they -are badly foiled.7 : :n v"-'-' ' ' ' We learn' that there are many idle silly rumors among the negroes, and I; some of them have fears growing out of the election of Gov.

Under 'Democratic rule in -North " Carolina they have found protection, and they have re ceived a thpusan4 times more help in the way of schools for their children and asylums for their afflicted than they ever received from their own party. With Cleveland as President; their condition will be better than it has ever been."

'After a few- remarks by Maj. Btedman, Col. Jas. O. Burr reported the following res6tuQohs", which were unanimously adopted, viz: The Democracy of Wilmineton. In mass meeting assembled, send greeting to their brethren in the State ana .throughout the Union for the glorious .victory , they have achieved in the triumphant election of Cleveland and Hendricks to the Presidency and Vice Presidency of the-United States. The people aave spoken, and in a man ner too plain' to be misunderstood, that bribery and corruption in the - government shall now -give place to honesty and re form, and should any attempt, be made, as seems now threatened, to defeat the will of the people, we do hereby resolve; That while earnestly desirous or a peace able settlement of all disturbing .elements, if there be any, we declare that we will sus tain the Democracy of the country, and particularly of .New X or It, in their purpose to maintain the purity of the elective fran chise and secure to Grover Cleveland the high office- to which he has been honestly elected , .iU:-:;y fW BeacHxed, That while congratulating our brethren all over .the land .upon the im mensity of our success. we feel that a special recognition is due to to those Independent Republicans at tbe .North who had the man liness to rise above party and to join with' us in our efforts to -free the country from the ruinous effects of Radical supremacy. Col. Roger Moore. Mr "j. G. Boney, Mr. J. O,; Davis and others, upon repeated calls; made speeches. ' CoL'JD K. McRae, who is confined to his home by sickness, sent the following letter, to ba read to the meeting: J ifT-M f Fellow ; Dsscocrats: Confined to a sick bed, and unable to be present in per son with you, to share, in your rejoicings over the great-victory whichvWe, as a Democratic oeoDle. have achieved over the hosts of a corrupt and powerful adversary. 1 claim the privilege out of the abundance of a sympathetic heart to send to- you my cordial greetings. A Under HI Providence and by the peaceful method of a fair ballot the people - themselves have rescued tbe republic from the domination .of dishonest forces, operating towards its present in jury and ultimate overthrow, and have esected a revolution . tor honesty- and re form, for economy and fidelity, in tho ad ministration of the government. '' ' When pur.. National Convention assem bled, there were iu ' the leadership of the party 1 several 'prominent? persons, ' each capable, by intellect, by virtue and by ser vice of Justtfyhrg his selection, forthe chief. nommauon or tne party.- - ; But there was that in the public record of Governor ; Grover. Cleveland, of New York, which - furnished ' forth so exalted a standard of official honor and executive success as at once .above all 'others to en gross tbe public attention. It really seemed as occasion succeeded to occasion he ' had been demanded for the emergencies, and on each the man and the opportunity bad come together, and tbe victorious prowess of the man had . each ti me been established. ' It is fit and proper.ina-much as the result has so happily justified the wisdom and sa gacity of the .selection, that the .North Carolina delegation, and with it especially the delegation from our own district .should receive from ns an appropriate recognition of their prompt discernment of the -situation and of their aid and influence in bring ing about the auspicious result. , , .v ' v It is altogether becoming that our re joicings should ". be heartfelt and enthusi astic. . But it must hot be forgotten that our victory is not merely a prize, which is a plaything and- a toy,' hut is the gift of a sovereign people, embodying a power and a trust' ''.r ' . . i " V - vTo the 1 intellectual : and patriotic mind there is more than a partisan election.'- Y,f ; There is a moral grandeur In the respon sibility .imposed which .our patriotic attri butes must .elevate themselves to group, The adverse forces of evil are not destroyed, but Bubdued. It will ;tequlro vigilance, prudence, self restraint and a faithful ob servance of ; pledges, to enable us to retain the ascendancy which we have won.: r f : . -. We must continue to follow our leader in the pursuance of r those methods and prac tices which have enabled ; him while heing politically a sturdy ; Democrat, to win and keep the confidence of the conservative element of his political adversaries, so as to bring them as , a reinfprcement in the time of need-rand out of their balance of power to extract a joint victory. ; ? . If it should happen (which I pray may not occur), that desperation shall take hold upon the '' Republican leaders, and they shall be able to stimulate their iollowers to another, fraudulent attempt to. hinder" the people in the enjoyment of their, right id select their rulers, and to impose upon them aeain a government not of their choice; in such an event we have the assu rance of a seemingly aroused and deter-, mined Northern Democracy to repel such attempt to the last extremity, and to main tain the choice of the people and to inaugu rate Cleveland, and Hendricks at all haz ards, let consequences come as may. In such a contingency, or ia face of such a threatened "condition, our duty is plain. .: , . Nothing I hope will be done by our peo ple for provoking, or for brae, parade or sensation.! ' Let our base of operations be a- sense of patriotic duty to our country, whose loyal citizens we are. and from this base, we can advance on the line of right, com-. pletely equipped for all emergencies. : - By maintaining a calm -but firm ; pies ence exhibited in a certain and , dignified assertion of our riehts as we understand and claim them . to be we ; .will - give the most satisfactory assurance to our brethren that we may be relied on. ; ..- . , " Jfellow Democrats, au hail our great vie--torv.
