Under cnob condltlona the unexpected may bappan In advanot ol a prediction. THE DBIIOCRATIC VICTORY. Tneiday wu a field day forth# democrat*! Hew York and Virginia, the two atatea on which Urn eye* of the whole oonntry were turned, by bandaomely lnereaacd majorities rallied to tbe democratic itandard and re- baked, In nnmeeiured terms, the bloody shirt cry on which the republican party placed It* whole dependence. In Hew York, Hill and Jones, tbe demo cratic nominee* for governor end lieutenant governor, defeated Dev- enpoit and Carr, the republican nominate, while in Virginia, Ganiral Lee buried In an svaltncbe of votes, tha renegade Wise, whole candidacy derived itf chief rapport from Mahone and fonnd anthnalutlc ap probation at tb* band! of John Bbarman and bla brigade of bloody ehlrten. The moot glorlcni ot the many vletorienof tha day, however, wu tbe repudiation of Kahone by the choice of a leglalaturo tbe competition of which will be overwhelming ly democratic. In Connecticut the democrat! mad* wonderful Increase In the etate legislator#, while In Mleilielppl end Maryland they o*r- tied lb* day by ronalng majorities. Of oonru Mutscbneetls, lows and Fenn- eylranla went as usual, republican, though In each case tberc wu a large decrease in the republican vote. To ram np Ibc day’* work, it will ba aaan that tba democrat* have absolutely carried everything that tbey expected, while the re publican* have been auccenlol in only those state* wblch wore conceded to them by tba damocrata before tb* alaotlon. Haw York and Virginia werejboth claimed by tba republican* to the lut, and being tba only two atatea In which national Issues wtro at etaka, tb* re cult shows conclusively that their people have Indorsed the party with which, one year ago, It Intrusted tha conduct of the national administration. Mr. Halt 1* tdvlaed to visit Senator Colquitt and Rev. Attlcus G.

Mr. Atklaion understands tha situation. H* bu bean In lb* aonth and be know* It pretty much u It It. H* I* of tb* opinion, therefore, that similar knowledge would be relished by Rev.

There are two political faots worthy to bo received by all man and by both parlies, namely, whan tbe vot* la brought ont in a straight party contest—brought ont, mind yon, by ■ larg* and warm canvas*—Ohio be comes every Urn* n republican elate, and Haw York n democratic etate. Tho one te Jnet about aa aecnrely republican u the other It dtmoemilo; hot too political pro- pond trance In either state 1a not great enough to admit ol trifling or apathy. It followe, therefore, that the key to the democratic combination In 1888, will b* Hew York, wbil* that of tha repubUcani will ba Ohio. What can tha republicans da for Haw York? Mr. Ire Davenport ms knocked ont In on* rtmnd, and Mr. Evarts, who supported him on tbe stnmp, 1a Uka- Wlta In ccllpia. Ex-Governor Cornell would ba knifed by tbe etalmrti, and Mr. Conkllng would meat n similar fat* at tb* hands ol toe half-brtedt. Than 1s no Haw York re publican wbo can carry hiaown state. What than?

While w* u* re jolelrg over tha remit In Hew York state, H te well to remember that tha malt In Virginia la even more Important from tb* point of view of a eonlhern demo crat. Mahonelem wu the tutoring wedge, and many northern republicans—compara tively honest and respectable men—have been led lomakt inbetautlal contributions to th* Mahon* parly la Virginia In th* hop* that th* anccata of Mabontbm would toad to to* breaking np of tha aolld aonth. Wa bava obicived that many honed and Intelligent republicans, who ar* un* on every other subject, hava bun led into the belief Ibat a eolid eonth la wmehow a men us tha nation; bnt it te to ba hopad that theu honest re publicans will dlteover, before to* solid eontb mtlla entirely away, tbit thte ■eetion te solid only In behalf ot honaatgov- eminent, honest political mitbods, and na tional unity.

It sru ascertained that white bundled* knew Frank Gray, the man, there wen numerous reputable paopla who knew tb* unit person u Mrs. Mary B. Wolcott. Frank Gray belonged to tha busi ness world; Mrs. Wolcott adorned a select eircteofioctety. Frank Grey owned soma land, but tba till* waa vetted in Mr*.

Eenator Joe Hawley, of Connecticut, te evl dently trying to crawl on the republican ticket behind John Sbermen. At a recent all-night aiision of the Horfolk club, when everybody had a dozen mngt and no wumpe, Senator Hawley propeeed a remedy for the alleged troubles In the sooth that Shermsn and othera tried to make an leane In the recent campaigns in Hew York and Virginia. Senator Hawley, when tb* mugs, wlthont tha wnmpe, bad aomewhat ceased to olatter and clink, upped and remaskad Keep iho government lu the possession ol those who snrelj believe in universal suffrage, and will correct Its erroti wlthont reiort to disfranchise- snenL Appoint no toon to ofllce who It not ot like faith.

Tha trouble about thte remedy 1s that it has already become celebrated as a failure.

Thin wu a time whan every impor tant office in tbe country wu filled with rtpnbllcane, when congress wu republican, and when th* eonlhern ettleswere controlled by carpet-bag republican governments, np- held by federal repnbltcsn bayonets. Onto! that condition has grown tha present result*, and tb* faot that they are democratic results leads Senator Hawley end men like him to believe that republicanism te tbs remedy. Bnt they are mistaken. Republicanism would prodnee pndHly the seme results, ■nd the end would be demoorsUo government jnet u lth now.' " Tne Coxernuiion believes In a free ballot end a fair connt, bnt It lakes tote occasion to observe that when th* democrat* of tha aonth were disfranchised inch men u Sherman and Hnwlay mtda no particular fight In favor of anfvrrssl snffrsge.
