New York, Nov. 9,—Now that it is definitely settled that Benjamin Harri¬ son will occupy the presidential chair on the fourth of March next, that he will be sworn in by a democratic chief justice and before a republican senate and house, it is interesting to note the views of politicians on the result. To a man, the republican leaders claim a policy of indulgence towards the south, while, on the other hand, the democrats predict disaster and distress as the outcome. The British press is apparently much shocked at the defeat of the administra¬ tion. It would appear as if they regard¬ ed the success of Mr. Cleveland as afore- gone conclusion from the moment the tidings of Ill's nomination arrived. The Times says : “It was said well, upon the occurrence of the Sackville af¬ fair, that American politics were an un¬ fathomable mystery to an English mind.” The Standard says : “Mr. Cleveland had the press and the best element of the country at his back and still suffered defeat. Brag and bluster appears to have been a match for both." The Globe: “The election of Benjamin Harrison again illustrates the mighty power of deep-rooted prejudice.” Gone for Harrison, New Yory, Nov. 9. — [Special.) — It is useless to hold out longer. The of the result was promul¬ gated yesterday morning, showing Har¬ rison's election almost conclusively, but now that the chairman of the democrat¬ ic committee has given in, there is noth¬ but a repetition of tho news that bo announced. This morning's New York World says Chairman Brice, of the democratic na¬ tional committee, concedes Harrison's The republicans carry California by 5,000 to 10,000, Indiana by 8,000 to West Virginia is still in doubt, require official count to decide the Virginia is democratic.

GEORGIA. TiWRSDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 10,1888. blasphemous boastings sought out their opponents. Crowds of drunken men swirled into the wide, tumultuous scenes from every corner of tho city. The dainty from their ladies, who had trooped down aristocratic homes, unable to bear the suspense of ignorance any longer, shrank back from the wild, sav¬ age White-haired, outpour of tho city’8 unwashed hosts. feeble men crept out and got into snug positions where they could watch the varying figures through their spectacles, and tell the roistering, excited young men around them that it was a more glorious night than the old times ever saw. Down in front of the newspaper offi¬ ces a prairie of faces seemed to be spread out from grim St. Paul’s to the Brooklyn bridge. it the When the cars passed through crowds parted like water and flowed again into the wake, hurrahing and swaying with passion. But although this bewildering scene turned the city into a babel, the revolu¬ tion was one of order. No blows were struck. Never in the history of New York was such patience, common sense, tolerance and good nature exhibited. A man who had $10,000 wagered on the result, and with wealth ana beggary at once threatening him, could hear the exultations of his political foes and smfle. It was a war < if voices and not of lists. Even the police who were scat¬ tered in these great throngs had to join in the enthusiasm and yell like the rest. The crowd which watched the republi¬ can returns in front of the New York club’s old home at the Worth monument sang: Down in the corn fields, Hear that mournful sound; All the democrats are weeping— Grover's in the cold, cold ground. Whfn the mighty multitude that stood before the Herald’s bulletin caught the sound of the republican chant they howled in colossal tones: Four ! Four ! Four years more ! Grover’s elected president once more ! Then the republicans sang with terrific startling energy, just as their bulletin made the nia had announcement for Harrison that with Pennsylva¬ gone an in¬ creased plurality : Oh. Ben Harrison, And Help I'll me to back some safe shore, go to Buffalo, And stay for evermore. The cry of “Grover! Grover! has a walk over” that went back was some¬ thing appalling m its volume, and ladies could be teen leaning out of the win¬ dows of the Fifth Avenue hotel beating time with bandanas and shouting demo¬ cratic war cries at tho top of their dear little voices. In the teeming tenement house dis¬ tricts there were the old-fashioned scenes that all true Americans love to look upon. Thousands of happy urchins brought forth boxes and barrels, the treasures of a month of patriotic petty larceny. Out of back yards, cellars and alleys, from woodsheds and roofs they came. lit fires They and piled danced up heaps of fuel and around them like devils, while their fathers and mothers looked on from sidewalks and windows, happy to see in their offspring the first burnings into of the the field spirit that sent a million men to prove that the will of the majority was the will of the na¬ tion. How they shrieked and writhed and pulled faces—acres and acres, miles and miles of them. What was it to them whether Harrison was “in the soup” or whether Grover was “in the cold, cold ground ?" To them it was simply the national feast of cheers and confedera¬ tion of bonfires. There were boxes and barrels and fences and hoop Rkirts and hay and straw and election booths to burn, and smoke as from a stormed and sacked city. The red, blazing saloons opened their jaws into the and fiery spat holiday out their stupid The Victims of the city prison scene. gates swung outward, and the pent up, fearful horde that had been gathered in drunk from the polls howl all with day,rushed out to get and the rest tliat somebody was “in the soup” and the devil knew who. Hundreds of newsboys rushed through the (juieter streets flooding the air with wild, mad cries. No one seemed to care what a newspaper cost. Men would lean cut of their windows in their night shirts and nalism yell till to they the jagged round out Mercurys how it of jour¬ all was going. No he one was too proud either,what to ask the first man met, or woman was the latest and who was in the soup. Was it Harrison or Cleveland? What was the not© below the Harlem? How did it look outside in the state? How was Indiana? Was it true that Connec¬ ticut was conceded to Cleve¬ land? There was a kind of in¬ sanity tliat coursed through the quiet homes turning everything into a de¬ lirium. Tired men and women would go to bed and try to sleep. At midnight thev could stand the anxiety no longer, and hurriedly dressing again rushed to the nearest bulletin i>oard, there to be jostled and crowded, and sucked into the roar of “Four! four! years more!" This wonderful night scene in New York was a demonstration tliat will not be forgotten while the present genera¬ tion lives—so vast, so like a restless sea, and to full of sound, good temper. While midnight, these words there were being written after was a crowd of ten office, thousand flinging people in its front forests of the Her¬ ald up of arms, rolling its shining eyeballs and sending up to the room where a hundred experts were swiftly figuring out the result the one endless refrain: “Four!-four! four years more!” Republican Gain* in West Virginia* Wheeling, Nov. 9.—[Special.]—The state is still in doubt. All reports so far received show republican gains, some of them greater than expected, and if con¬ tinued Harrision will get the state by about 600, Goff, for governor, is probably 1,000 ahead of his ticket. The legislature will be close. The re¬ turns so far indicate a republican major¬ ity of two in the senate and one in the house—a majority of three on a joint ballot. This will make Goff United State* senator. In the first congressional dis¬ trict Atkinson (rep) is elected to congress by from TOO to l,- r *00 majority. In the second the democrats claim 130 majority for Wilson, but there is a pros¬ pect of the election of Flick, republican, by a small majority.

New York, Nov. 9.—The splendid logy of the president by Gov. Hill, Albany, is commanding great attention here. There never was a braver in the governor's career. Said a prominent politician and a publican : “It opens up a naw phase of the ernor’s character I had not noticed fore.” “Ho may well have been pardoned for back-slap at the president such as gave him. It would have been doned had lie even attributed the defeat to an idealist and a political cator; the result has almost justified it. “But, instead of that, he gives Mr. Cleveland all the glory, all the and all the sublimity of honorable de¬ feat. If I had my vote again the ernor should have it for hia manhood, nothing more. I think there is doubt at this time that lie is the hero the hour and tho democrats would well to nominate him for the higher of¬ fice of president in 1892.” Below are appended some extracts from his speech delivered to a serenading ty in Albany ; Our success in the gubernatorial con¬ test is marred by the siiadow of national disaster. In common, with every true democrat, 1 greatly regret the defeat of President Cleveland in the state and in the nation. He deserved better at the hands of the people of this country. Honestly, bravely and courageously he gallantly led his party in a great contest for tariff reform, and suffers defeat ow¬ unfair ing to false clamor, unjust prejudices, and representations efforts and all the gigantic combined of the monopo¬ lists of the country. As he understood it, regardless of per¬ sonal or political consideration, and he should have been sustained by the tax¬ payers, consumers and the masses of the people subserve, whose true interests he desires to and whose rights he unselfish¬ ly endeavored to maintain. It is not now whether necessary the or profitable lie boldly to inquire issue so made might not more postponed wisely have later been earlier presented or to a period. It is sufficient to say that he trusted the leaders of tlie democratic party. After a full and careful consideration of tho whole subject, he deemed that the best and truest interests of tlie country required this that the with issue should lie marie at crisis, and that patriotic and deliberate conclusion when once reached there should have been prompt acquies¬ cence. has only The principal with of tariff reform met a temporary defeat. Sooner or later it will ultimately triumph in this country. President Cleveland and the democratic party were right and deserved to succeed. Tlie argument was with us. and two weeks’ longer discussion would have given us the victory. Permit me to sug¬ gest that there must be no back track taken upon this question. The issue so courageously Cleveland presented by President whole in the interest of the people flag has must not be abandoned. Our been nailed to the mast, and there it must remain. Temporary dis¬ aster must not be permitted to discour¬ age us in our effort to relieve the people from unjust and unnecessary taxation. Temporary expedients will only endan¬ ger or postpone our final triumph. Let us tariff steadfastly reform, adhere and the to clouds the principles of that now obscure our path will soon pass away. Tlie country has had the benefit of a wise, economical, and aide administra¬ tion of public affairs, and people are sat¬ isfied with it. We have lost power in the nation not because of anything which had been done or omitted, but, among other, causes, of foolish and un¬ grounded fears. have Concerning been misled the future, the people false by tlie persistent, statements and predictions of our adver¬ saries.

Up publicans on the South* v Indianapolis, Ind,. Nov, 9.-Tlie Jour¬ nal, speaking of the result in reference to the south, says: The really progressive men of the south, though perhaps calling themselves democrats, have no sympathy with free trade. They regard it as a menace to the prosperity of the south, and they are right. The interests of the south in this regard are identical with those of the north, except that the south is even more interested than the north in main¬ taining the policy of protection. Tlie north would suffer Ies3 from free trade than the south would in proportion as it is stronger, richer, and fetter able to stand commercial disaster. A consider¬ able of number of progressive described southern tor men the class voted General Harrison, and a much larger number desired his election. We have reason to believe that many who did not vote for him do not regret his election. We think we can assume that they will never have reason to do so. Gen. Harrison is not merely a strong friend of industries, the policy which of protection to American the pro¬ gressive people of the is in south ail other desire to see maintained, but he respects large a patriotic American statesman, enough and broad enough to take the entire country in the scope of his vision and his efforts for its welfare. The Journal claims no authority all to speak for the president-elect, but who know him know that his administration will be actuated by the highest j rindnles of justice well ami die i/.rth patriot will it-in. find Tue him south firm «• as >» a friet-.d and a wise and faithful guard an of its interests. Wo believe his election marks the dawn of a now era of good feeling between tlie north and south, and sentiment the development based of fetter a new national on a understand¬ ing of our common interests. MISS JOHNSON WAS BARRED. She Offered Her Ballot but tbe Election Inspector Rejected It, New York, Nov. 9.-— Mias Annin P. Johnson, tlie secretary of the equal rights party, was up betimes Tuesday morning. She was, in fact one of the family astir in Mr. Cynthia Leonard's pretty apart¬ ments over on West Twenty-third street. Miss Johnson is a young woman of medium height and rather slightly built. She has brown hair, a fresh English complexion, a gentle manner and a low voice—tliat “excellent tiling in woman.* She has also frank, blue eyes, rather deeply set beneath her browns. Miss Johnson looked tired and a trifle nervous as she drew the curtains aside to look out into the gray, cheerless morn¬ ing. Then, with the celebrated Bijou, Mrs. Leonard’s Japanese put, trotting at her heels, she began a tour of the rooms to collect the ballots which she proposed twenty-one-year-old to offer at the polls as United a free, white and Btates citi¬ zen, and therefore a voter. At this stage of proceedings a voice from behind a manifold Japanese screen which makes a brilliant zig-zag across the far end of the room, exclaimed: “It makes no difference what tickets you take, you won’t be allow-ed to vote.” • This utterance came from the equal thia rights Leonard, candidate whose for mayor, Mrs. Cyn¬ ambition to cast rudely, her vote and in the she presidential feels election was by Judge Lawrence arbitrarily, sat Miss upon Johnson insisted, however, on Monday. that she “wouldn’t take the prohibition ticket and must have the right slips,” and finally Cliarles she found Hubbell, them. Then her law¬ yer, G. arrived, and a procession of three set fetween out for the polls, on Seventh avenue, Twenty- first and Twenty-second streets. The cigar store where they were lo¬ cated was full of men, and the inspect¬ ors stood tehind the row of little glass- fronted boxes gravely regarding the somewhat slow process of depositing the espied eight slips in Johnson, the right slits. W hen they Miss these inspectors assumed a most forbidding expression. The crowd of men looked attentive and interested, but thoroughly respectful. Miss Johnson stood in line. When her claimed turn came, gruffly, the biggest inspector ex¬ “I’ve waving bothered her UBide: no time to be with any but legal Johnson voters.” “Miss is a legal voter,” said Mr. Hubbell; “she has been duly regis¬ tered. “She and has if qualified business in law”— no to bo registered, and I refuse to accept her vote,” quoth the Inspector, getting red in the face and big looking anxious to say a large — with a D. “Do you put yourself on record as de¬ clining to accept the rote of this duly registered and qualified citizen?—because we propose to carry this to the United States court?" queried the lawyer. Tlie inspector looked still more per¬ turbed, but assented, and a faint whiff of brimstone was wafted after MIsb Johnson and her companions as they de¬ parted. 11 was accompanied by manly accents, Miss Johnson didn’t tarry to distin¬ guish the words, but accompanied her lawoer to the United States court in the damus postoflice building to apply for a man¬ to show cause why she was re¬ strained from voting. Several hours of waiting there revealed the fact that not a single United States court judge was to he found, and a multitude of dis¬ tressed people were seeking judicial aid. Commissioner Shields said Judge Brown “ought to be there;” but he wasn't. Then the persevering little par¬ ty house. trooped over to the county court Judge Iawrence, the judge who ex¬ tinguished Mrs. Leonard's hope of cast¬ private ing her ballot this They t ear, got was there comfort in hi* room. no from him. Then Miss Johnson went sad¬ ly home, and her lawyer spent the re¬ mainder of the day seeking a judge, and finding none. At 4:30 Mr. Hubbell returned to report this failure. “And so I have lost my vote," said Miss Johnson, “and all be¬ cause of those renegade judges, who should Jiave teen accessible to day of all days.” Johnson Miss is not at all discouraged. She says she has teen three years pre¬ paring herself to claim her right of suf¬ frage, and she proposes to establish it yet. “Plenty allowed of women have been begging to be to vote for years. 1 real¬ ized that was no way to get anything from men. I determined to demand my right, and 1 shall get it in the end, see if I don’t,” cried tlie plucky little would-be voter. Her case will be taken to the higher courts at once, “and when a woman says she will, depend upon it." Harrison's Iowa Plurality.

New- York, Nov. 9. —The announcement appeared in Birmingham Daily Post; Mr. Chamberlain has concluded separate and private treaty, one which happily requires no ratification by a litical l tody—a treaty of lady being Mias Mary EmJieoU, It understood that no formal or public an¬ nouncement of th* engagement should be made until very shortly before the marriage. This restriction is now re¬ moved, and we are enabled to state that Mr. Chamberlain sailed from Liverpool on Saturday last in the Cunard steamer Aurania, tor New York, for the purpose of celebrating his marriage. From New York Mr. Chamberlain wilj go immediately to Washington, and the marriage will take place there within a few days after his arrival. For a few weeks Mr. and Mrs, Chamberlain will remain in tho United State*, paying a series of family visits, and shortly before Christmas they will arrive in England, when Mr. Chamberlain will be again pre¬ pared to take his full share in public work. From the autumn session he will of course be absent, and we can venture to assure him that, under circumstances so friends, interesting his to himself and his constituents will readily ex¬ cuse their distinguished representative from attending upon the discussion of tbe estimates, ana also for abstinence from the political controversies which may take place in tlie country. W» venture with confidence to go further and say that not his political and his personal opposed friends only, but many who are to him in politics will hardly concur in wishing Mr. Chamberlain a full measure of happiness in the union into which lie is about to enter, and in offering him felicitations and welcome tefth to and to his bride, Chamberlain En Route to Marry.
