Tm-RSDAY Morning, December 5. 1878. -Upon the whole," Mr. .Stephens "thinks very well of the message." And yet he "thinks that in the South generally, the 'elections were as free from illegal inter "fercuee' as in any part of the United '.".States." As he ages little Aleck puts les and less logic in losn. The talk" in this State, alluded to in i dis'iiitch IVo:n Cincinnati, of, put- tinjj t iov Vance on ' the Democratic ticket in-1 oi-'O tor Vice 'President, is all on paper, evidently. No Southern man will lie thought of, a:-? no Southern man ought to !e nominated. - " Bide a wee, and tliiina fret.", The ust" for a National (Greenback party is not i i lVet!y obvious.

At tiVi -present nioment such a movement ap peal's -as-impossible as the organization ot any of the third party ' movements wliicH have started out with a flourish of trum pets siin-r the war.

The returns are official where offi cial returns have been accessible. No trust worthy reports have yet been received from Kansas and Nebraska, but there the Republi cans have lost strength, if anything, so that the total result is not affected. In "Michigan seven small and remote counties are not in cluded. ' .It will be seen that the Republicans are in a minority in these Northern States of 182,503 votes. Add Indiana whose Dem ocracy does not prevent her from being classed asV Northern State, and we have a Republican minority in the North of those" States which have voted (all have voted except California) of 236,031. . V- Look at the States.. Only in ten (Col orado, Iowa, Kansas, Massachusetts, Min nesota, Nebraska, Nevada; New Hamp shire, Rhode Island and Vermont), have the Republicans a majority. In Grant's State, Illinois, they are in a minority f 23,000. Blaine's State, Maine, gave an anti-Republican majority of 13,000. Mich jan is 28,000 anti-Republican, and in ATew Jersey the opposition majority when V concentrated, is 15,000. The great State of Conkling, New York, curls up an op position majority of 46,000. Hayes own State of Ohio shows au anti-Republican majority of 41,000. Pennsylvania makes a worse showing for .them 63,000 opposi tion majority. t In its review of the above table the I World takes the nineteen States of the North from which we have returns for 1878 t and compare these with the vote of 1876. t The North in 1876 cast 5,377,066 votes, of which Hayes received 2,751,603, or 51.18 per cent, of the whole vote. In a poll of 4,740,651, the Republicans, if they had 'wmly held ther own, should therefore have feast in 1878 a vote of 2,426,265. Instead of this they ohiy brought 2,252,310 voters Jinto the field. "Therefore," sayg the World, Wwhile in sixteen Southern States of the ' ' 1 . I . Union in which in 18TC it polled 1,106, "761 votes the Republican party is tai "year dead in .nine and at the last gasp "in seven, it -has lost ground heavily in "the Northern States also. The Republi "can party, in other words, is a minority 4party now as it was in I860, and "as it was again in 1876, when it counted "in its la.it President through devices un known to the Constitution and disgrace ful to the good name of the nation." This is whyTuE Hux thinks there will le no golid Nortfi.

It b true "it seems to lead up, to the national apotheosis ot cheese to the view that the glory of the world is based firmly and unmistakably upon this sapid and nutritious substance. It carries just a step further a certain ancient astronomical theory of how the world was held up, for under the tortoise upon which all was su perimposed it. put the firm support of a yearly cheese of a: million or. more tons weight. People, says Governor Seymour, rail about banks as if all the proj-ierity in the world depended upon them, and "one year's product of butter and cheese will more than buy the Whole money circulation of the country. Perhaps the sudden growth and great proportions of tke cheese and butter manufactory is the most re markable point yet in our industrial and commcrcial'historv. The Great Unknown. J&w York fferalt?. It has been said that the world knows little of its greatest men.

Han cock was beaten. Shields, with the wounds and the honors of two wars upon him, was vanquished. McClellan, the young Na poleon of our early war days, was remanded to a back seat. .Joe Johnston, the greatest soldier of the 'rebellion, was unable to mus ter a' corporal's guard of admirers. "Sheri dan and his famous charger were distanced, while Sherman 'and the hundred Generals who marched with him down into Georgia, and Grant, Who received the sword of the Confederacy at Appomattox, melted into thin air as the conquering Wiley swept to the head of the lists in the great Cathedral competition.- Twas a great day for.W lley.

The State Executive Committee congratu lates the Democratic-Conservative party ot North Carolina upon the result of the recent' Congressional elections at the .Tvorth. these elections clearly indicate three things which are of consequence to 'us : First, that the peo- . pie of this country ate dissatisfied with thej Republican party and are unwilling for thy. Republican leaders to afflict us longer with their ruinous measures and fraudulent piiuj t'ces. Second, that the Nationals do not meet" with popular favor, and, as a separate organ i zatiou, have utterly failed to impress them selves upon the country ; and lastly, that the star of the Democratic party is still in the ascendant, and the people are looking to thnt party af the only one capable of restoring prosperity to the country, and able to admin ister the. government on those Constitutional and just principles, which are essential alike to the happiness of our citizens and to the perpetuity of our institutions. Thus in the elections held in eight States the Republicans have lost twelve members of Congress ; the" Nationals have elected four; and the Demo crats have elected twent'-three, and have gained seven. These facts demonstrate that the people in tend to invest the Democratic party with the full control of the National Government. The Senate of the next Congress will be Democratic by a considerable majority, and it is only necessary for the Democrats of the South to remain steadfast in their allegiance to our or ganization, and our triumph will be complete. It is for us to determine whether the banner on which are inscribed Reconciliation, Home Rule and Financial Reform, shali trail in the du6t, or shall beboriie on to victory. Every consideration of interest, ol policy and of patriotism then urges us to prepare imuiesiately ' for the approaching political struggle. Be assured, fellow-citizens, that without preparation, it will be impossible to achieve success. Let us i.ot by our apathy, cur hike wariii ness and indifference postpone the accession to power ol that party which alone has been able to check Republican corruption and to arrest the progress of oer government towards a centralized despotism. Let us be steadfast in our' devotion to prin ciple, true to our organization and endeavor '- by every means to discountenance those inde pendents and disorganizes wno oppore our wort try standard-bearers freely and fainy chosen by tiie Democratic party ii; Convention assembled. In particular do we desire to repeat what we have so often urged the necessity of thorough local organization. It is the tow n r-h'p committees who are charged with the most important of all party dulice. To them is committed the duty of supervising the election, aiid of devising means to bring out every Democratic voter to the polls. They ought to meet frequently and advise and take counsel together how best to promote the for tunes of that party, on whose success depends so largely the prosperity of themselves and of their posterity. In every township, in every neighborhood, there ought to he appointed a committee of active, efficient, and prudent party men, who w iil undertake to see that every Democrat in the precinct comes to the" polls and casts his ballot for our nomlneee. We therefore urge this upon the township committees; and if in any township it is ne glected, we appeal to our Democratic friends there to send their conveyances for all their neighbors who otherwise might not attrnd the polls. Let it be clearly understood in every locali ty that he who fails to vote for our nominee, gives half a vote to the Republican party, and that the Conservative who casts his vote for an independent is taking the surest means to break up and destroy the only party which can give relief to our afliictcd country. We warn our fellow-citizens that great ends can not be accomplished except at the cost of some inconvenience, and olten through the sacrifice of our personal preferences : and we appeal to every man who has the good of the people at heart to give a portion of one day to his country, and subordinating his individual preferences, cast his "ballot for the nominee of the Conservative party. .
