' " We hav been waiting to; give our
readers definite information and psi
, tive assurance as to the refult of the
- Presidential contest before writing
. about it. 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 Democrats, assisted ', by , the
conscientious and honorable Indepea
dent Uepublicans, have; achieved -a
victory of the grandest proportions
and one that is far-reaching iu its
cosiM qaences. It is an occasion ; for
great rejoicing by all patriotic and
honorable citizen?, for its gives the
death blow to the corruptest organi
zation that ever cursed a free coun
try ; it lends the finishing Btroke to.
the political career of the ."plumed,
knight," the most " degraded - and
venal fellow who was , ever , honored
by the suffrages of any party. ; '.
The people have' great, cause for;
rejoicing, and they will see to it that
they are not again imposed upon by
poliffipal tramps ap4 robbed i)f j the

will be inducted into the high office

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. V ..... , 1,788
The outside districts were thus reduced
from 1,996 V 1.930, on 'which basis the
count thereafter proceeded. ; ' -
' After that they got the . returns in
a ' muddle, and for the purpose of
fraud and a steal if the people would
allqw. .'Th sole pqrpose was to con
fuse and cheat. 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. Cleveland to
the'Presidenoy. 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." TheyysiU be protected
in every right they have note, and be

men, they will prosper more and be
happier. In a few months everything'

There wis intense enthusiasm manifested
at the meeting held ' in front of the City
Hall last night "Mr. J. W. King, chair
man, called the meeting to - order, and at
his request Maj. Chas.' M. Stedmao. Lleui
Governor elect, explained the puTpose 'for
which the people were assembled. '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.
' God help ui to turn it to a blessed
account for our State and country,

our State election: The white race .has
well nieh preserved its unity and thus' de

and interest may be safely reposed. ' And

: ; The cheering intelligence which came at
Intervals over the wires Thursday after
noon, and . night, and . which attracted 'a
throng around the various news centres
until long after midnight, continued to in
spire eager and enthusiastic Democrats
yesterday, and as telegram after telegram
arrived during the day calculated to con
firm the glorious news and scatter all
doubts to the. winds,, the people could .not
control themselves any longer, but gave, ex
pression to the great joy they felt over the
magnificent result; some in one way and
some in another. ' Men shouted who had
not- shouted in years before, and ' many
shouted themselves hoarse, ,. .. ;
At about 4 o'clock in the- afternoon Itbe
firing of a salute of one hundred gunswas
commenced at the intersection of Front and
Market streets, and large crowds of excited
and enthusiastic people were attracted to
the yicinity. Appreciation of the glorious
result was also shown in the various decor

Market street the buildings
occupied
by the Dally Beeieto and Messrs. 'A. &-L
Shner was almost literally covered with
flags, while two or three roosters in cages,
perched linon platforms high up towards
the top of the building, serenely surveyed
the animated scene on the adjacent streets
and ever and anon sent forth aloud and ex
ultahfcockadoodledoo!" "Messrs. P. Helns
berger, B. Solomon" J." C? Stevenson and
others on this street had their, stores deco
rated with flags. On Front street flags
were suspended across the street between
Messrs. Harrison & Allen's and Aaron &

J.( ; K. .Mcllhenhy - and W. S. Brigg's
drug ' stores ' and" Messrs. , ' Brown v'&

had their store decorated.7 The Stab office
also had flags suspended." At the corner
of Eighth and Wooster i streets Mr.J Gv

the women turned just as ! the pilot of the

The unfortunate woman struck the ground
below the bridge at a point just 270- feet
from where she was standing when the en

few days since, sold some cotton in this
town, and with a part of the money had
paid. -the last Installment upon the debt

that after Blackman bad paid over to How
