Let not Northern Republicans harp anv longer about the bull dozing aud intimidation of negro voters by dem ocrats in the South. The most bare faced intimidation ever practiced in this country was by Ohio Republican manufacturers four days before the election. Notices were posted up in several large iron and steel works that they were closed up until after the October election. If the Repub licans rallied the State they would vPKimifi work on the dav after elec tion, if not, they would hold up till af ter the November election; if the Dem ocrats should elect the President it was uncertain whether work would ever be resumed. This was intended to intimidate the workmen, and was the most effective way that could be employed. For Treasurer. DONALD W. BAIN, OF WAKE. For Auditor, TV. P. ROBERTS, OF GATES.

"vf elitop the press to insert the following telegram: Latest tele ejraphic news from Ohio is the Re publicans have only 3,300 majority. Democrats are claiming the State. Thousands of the worst characters of Ohio were sworn in as deputy United States marshals on election ?ay to intimidate the voters, and pre vent a fair election. One white man was shot by a negro marshal. Henry Ward Beecher said in his pulpit last Sunday that half a million of dollars bad been sent from New York city b the Republican commit tee, to be used in corrupting the vo ters of Ohio. Do not be over-confident, fellow Democrats of North Carolina. York will get the full negro vote of East ern North Carolina, and if too many of you stay at home, this illiterate demagogue may defeat the true and loved patriot, Gen. A. M. Scales. Daniel McSweeney, the Irish Anierican who remained in a British prison fourteen months while Blaine was Secretary of State, although he had it in his power to have him re leased by writing only five words, baa arrived in New York to work against James G. Blaine. He tells his countrymen that Blaine is not the friend of the Lishmen. Patrick Henrv "Winston, who was in Newton Thursday, is ihe same Patrick who ranted in the Chicago convention about Southern outrages, about avenging the Danville and Co piah riots. He said no.hing about avenging the Cincinnati riot of "Wed nesday, before which the Danville and Copiah skirmishes pale into nothingness. THE OCTOBER ELECTIONS. The State elections in Ohio and West Virginia were held Tuesday. The result is a drawn battle between the parties. The Republicans hold Ohio aud the Democrats hold West Virginia. No advantage has been gained by either party, and the main battle yet remains to be fought on the fourth of November. At the be- ninnincr of the campaign the Demo- crats conceded Ohio to the Republi cans, but claimed that West Virginia would remain true to Democracy ; the Republicans claimed both States, and boasted that they would break the solid South by carrying YV est Virginia. During the last week of the campaign the Democrats thought they had a chance to carry Ohio. Th3 result shows that each party has been both successful and unsuccess ful. Each has been successful in holding its own State, but unsuccess ful in its attempt to win the State of j the opposing party. The only "difference is that the Democrats were able to hold West Virginia with but little expense and little effort, while the Republicans had to fight for ev ery foot of ground in Ohio. They not only spent all the money they rnnld derive from everv source, but had their whole army of speakers from every part of the country can vassing every county of the State. And besides this, a horde of govern ment officials, under the command of Commissioner of Patents, Dudley, as sisted in organizing the State, and in colonizincr hundreds of black voters j l from Indiana, Kentucky and other ! neighboring States. The Dutch have taken Holland, but they had to call in much outside help in doing it. The Democratic tactics were well laid. They succeeded in making the enemy spend their campaign fund in one of their own States, while the Democratic fund yet remains almost intact. The Republican party comes out of Ohio hopelessly crippled, while the Democratic party is in su perb shape for the great battle to be fought from Massachusetts to California. Let no Democrat be disappointed by Tuesday's elections. If we had gained Ohio, of course we would have been glad to add it to the Demo cratic column, but it has never been counted on with any confidence. The State was not taken into the count as necessary to the election of Cleve land when he was nominated, and is not needed now. The result in West Virginia shows that the Republicans cannot succeed in capturing any votes South ; and New York, Indiana and New Jersey seem as certainly Democratic to-day as does North Carolina and Tennessee. The votes of the first two States are all that are needed north of Mason and Dixon's line. We also expect to car ry Connecticut and California, and have fair prospects in several other States. BUSINESS MEN AND POLITIC In every election sinca the war one of th strongest appeals that has been made to the country by the Re publicans has come from the business men, especially from the business men of New York. They have rep resented the business interests of the country to be on a sound basis, aud that a continuance of the Republican party in power was necessary to pre serve the equilibrium of the country. Such arguments, have been 1 ("Y , i 1 1 II , i uiincuii. to comuat, ana nave naa a wonderful influence in determining the decision of the indifferent, inde - pendent aud floating vote of the country. This year a complete change lias taken place. The business men say that the Republican policy has had its day, and that a change is needed that business of every kind is lag ging and unprofitable, aud that th country can not prosper again until the Democratic theory has gained the ascendency, on account of the changed condition of - the country. They say further that B:ame is too erratic, reckless and dashing to be at the proposition of the telegraph company to furnish complete news from the Ohio election. The folio w in were received on the night of the election- Since then we have re ceived nothing by telegraph.

It is estima ted that fully 100,000 men participa ted in the demonstration.

TJje Ohio Election. 5EW TOKK WORLD, DEM. OCT. lOSt The strongest point that Dr. York has made in his canvass of the State in support of his assertion that the Democrats of the House of Repre sentatives are opposed to the Blair educational bill, is that the Demo cratic committee on education refus ed to briner the matter before the House. But it has been shown that tits Co tgessimal reord puts an entirely different construction upon the matter. Mr. Aiken, of South Carolina, the chairman of the com mittee, moved that the bill be taken up, but Hiscock, 'of New York, a Re publican,, objected. By reason of tlje TuTe that no bill can be taken up out of itsre&Tilar order, without unani- ffive the niouB consent, the bDl was thuspost-ron-ed by the Iter,Tabic2is. LATER AND BETTER. vv nen tne aoove editorial was written it seemed to be agreed to by both parties that the Republicans had carried Ohio by about their usu al majority, 20,000, and that the Democrats had maintained about their usual majority in West Virgin ia, and consequently no advantage gained by either side, but a dispatch to be found at another place says the Republican majority has come down to 6,000 in Ohio, and the Democratic majority in West Virginia has gone far above the usual mark. If this is correct the result is a very decided victory for Democracy. A similar I falling off from the Republicans wiil!Petty Ptur . , adorned the a .Democrats an tne ciosei States iu November.
