THE ELCCT10X.
We have received, up to the hour of
going to press, but little news from the
Elections that came off Tuesday in the
various States. The returns so far
indicate that New Ycrk State has gone
Democratic by from 10.000 to 15.000.
Few York City is reported at tiO.OOO
Democratic, and Brooklyn at 13.000.
Returns from Massachusetts indi
cate the election of the Republican tick
et by handicme majorities.
Wisconsin elects the entire Repub
lican ticket by from 5,000 to 10.000,
Female and Negro Suffrage are both
said to be defeated in Kansas.

Tho . Twelfth General Assembly,
eays the JVonpareil, tvi'l le composed,
politically, as follows: ...
Senate Republicans, 39; Democrats

House Republican?, 77; Democrats
17; People', 5; Independent, 2.
But two Senators aiA thirteen Rep
resentatives were re-elected. '
G.4I-S" I. I.DI.4N'A.
The copperhead papers throughout
the land, have, to appearances at least,
meileJ a small Democratic gain in
Ohio, and they thout "gains" at eve
rything and everybody. They even
claim "fains" in Indiana on the
strength ct the returns from a portion
cf the State, but they fail to hear any
thing from that portion of the State
which shows ?n overwhelming Repub
lican vole. The election in Indiana
was similar to ours ia Nebraska for
county officers alone and shows a
Republican majority in . the State cf
20,000. .
LOOK AT THE r ACTS.
It has been asserted by all the cop
perhead papers in the country that if
the negroes had the power they would
elect none but their own color to oiTice.
Atthe late election in Alabama, where
it is said by copperhead papers that all
the ,1'iadicals there were blacks, they
elected t event y -six radical white men
as delegates to the Constitutional Con
vention and only nineteen colored men.
The radicals elected ninety five out of
nicety-seven delegates. The colored
men certainly had the powar to elect
ivnom they pltased. Did they make
ctlor a requisite qualiflcr.tian? The
assertions of the copperhead press are
not sustained by the farts. It really
looks like the colored men had more
tense nbout this "war of races' ques
tion than many of those who boast of a
whiter skin. They do not object to
voting for white men, even when they
have the power to dictate. Does not
their action in Alabama completely re
fute the Copperhead hobby, and put to
shame those who are endeavoring to
create a war of races?
POLITICAL OKGAX1Z.1TIOX.
There has been a great' deal said
about the manner in which the copper
heads get out their vote in Pennsylva
nia, and more recently in Wisconsin
and other States. Republican papers
have published the circular letters sect
by the copperhead State Ctmmir.ees
and some of them have commented se
verely upon them. e see no just
reason to complain of the manner n
which the Democratic leaders hare
brought out their party voie it is their
right to do all in their power to get the
voirs out. The only grounds tor fault
finding that Republicans have is Le
cause their leaders have not made the
same exertions to bring out their voters
that Democrats hare. Let them learn
a lesson from this; and in future cam
paigns they may be benefited by it.
We see that in Wisconsin the Demo
crats have been following in the foot
steps of Pennsylvania, and the Chair
man of the Slate Committee has ap
pointed an individual in eery neigh
borhood to organise and bring out the
vo'.e, to furnish political documents,
newspapers, etc., to such as he thinks
should have them, all at the expense of
. the State Committee. This is all fair;
it is legitimate; and Republicans should
ifo likewise, instead of findmcr fault
with those who do work. Let the Re
publicans of Nebraska have such an
organization cf the party as will make
treason tremble and hide its head next
fall. They ehculd commence cow.
If the principles we advocate are worth
anything they are worth an earnest
attempt to- perpetuate them. Nebras
ka has a rote for President next fail.
and Republicans should see to k in sea
son that we are not compelled to lament
our apathy in organizing and bringing
oat the vote of the party, as were cur
friends in c'hn Stales this Oil
TitOOPS WASTE!).
A number of prominent Southerners
are now in Washington urging the
sending of more Federal troops into the
South. They fear a general uprising
amorvgth negroes, and think''-they are
not able to cope with ihem.'; They say
the negroes are generally, armed, and
that the whites are mostly. dtstitute of
the means of defence. A short time
ago these Southerners were as anxious
to get' the "Lincoln-hirelings'' out of
the South as they now are to get tome
of them down there. The difference
is that then they wanted to set the
iron heel upon the negro, end now they
fear the order wilt be reversed.
THE EFFECT 1IV THE SOUTH.
At the close of the war the defeated
rebels were willing to accept almost
any terms which would allow them to
live; and large numbers of them, as we
have, heard many persons say who
were there at the clsse of hostilities,
expected nothing less than the disfran
chisement of every participant in the
rebellion. This they would have . ac
cepted at that time without an audible
murmur, because they could not hare
said it was injustice, however impolitic
it might have been on the part cf the
Gut-p.rnment.. But what do we hear
from :ihese men now, after Andrew
Johnson has espoused their cause, and
the people of Ohio and Pennsylvania
have allowed their natural allies the
copperheads to gain an apparent vic
tory in those States A correspondent
of the Tribune, wri'ing from Georgia,
says:.
"You-woild hardly believe were I
t3 fell 3ou the absurd hopes excited in
the Southern bosom by the . recent
Democratic successes. One result the
planters regard as certain. 'We shall
all be paid for our niggers,' they say,
'in less than three years.' I know of
several plar.ters who have already
made out all the necessary papers, with
descriptions, affidavits, &c, to support
their claims."
These Southerners know very well
what the result would be if the north
ern copperheads could only get control
of affairs. This correspondent denom
inates these hopes as "absurd." They
are absurd in one respect that the
people of ihis government are going to
place a rebel sympathizing party in
power; but they would- be well foun
ded were it not for that fact. We have
not the least shadow of a doubt but
these hopes would be realized shculd
such men as Yallandigham, Pendle
ton, Seymour, and others cf like ilk,
ever pet control of ihe government.
But "there's the tub." These hopes
ore "absurd" becau.e the men enter
taining them are misled as to the real
state of affairs in Ohio, Pennsylvania,
a2 oilier States where there have
been apparent coppeiheod gains. We
believe the people cf those States are
as true to the principles of the Republi
can party as they ever were, but issues
have been brought to bear in which
these former slave owners have no
part or parcel; and when the question
is brougbt down as it will be next
fall to that of national politics solely,
then, indeed, will these men see how
"absurd" their hepes have been.

A CM01 HIT.
The New York City coppeiheada
having headed one of their campaign
posters wi'h the well-known quotation
from Milton's Paradise Lost, "Awake!
Arise! or be forever Fallen!, the Tri-
bune takes them off in the following
capital style:
"Our Democratic city papers are
publishing a call for a rneeti.ig headed
Rally, Democrats, Iully; Awake!
Aaise! ,or r- forever fallen!" Ti.
Democrats have thus adopted Satan's
war-cry to his followers floundering in
the abyss of hell, and looking up thence
in despair upon the frowning bmle
mer.ts of Heaven, from which they
have been "hurled with hideous ruin
and combustion down." This is ap
propriate, as tbey long since adopted
the Satanic principle which
- -'had rather reign ia Hell than serve in Heaven,'
and being overthrown in the Rebellion
to which this ambition gave rise, they
still, with Satan, deny that "all is lost,"
so long as "stern, inexorable hate" sur
vives. It is a new nnd refreshing ev
idence of the courage of his Satanic
Majesty that he discharges his feeble
subordinates of Mozart and Tammany,
and once more, as of old, assumes in
person the command of his forces, re
issuing hi? ancient proclamations, as if
he felt himself once more at the head
of his ancient followers."

HOW DO l'O'tf LIKE IT?
How do war Democrats like the sen
timent and language of the man who is
just now the 'bright particular star" of
the Northwestern Democracy -"Brick"
Pomeroy. How -do war democrats
like it, we ask. How do respectable,
decent, honest men of any party, creed
or faith relish it? We give a few. ex
tracts from this Democratic "light," as
they appeared in his paper, the La
Crosse Democrat, and ask every honest
man to consider ihein carefully. We
know that no true man be he Demo
crat or Republican will have the
shamefacedness to attempt a justifica
tion of them; and yet this man sways
the Democracy cf the Northwest, and
his writings are sought with avidity by
a hoste of so-ca'led Democrats. He is
just the style of writer that can gain
an influence in that party. He now

following constantly appear:

JOflKSOX'S THREAT TO RE
SIST. The New York Nation devotes an
editorial to the subject of Andrew
Johnson's supposed purposes upon and
after the ro-assembling of Congress,
and uses this language relative to his
threaHo resist suspension, from office
in case cf impeachments
' The question which just now seems
to receive most attention in connection
with him is whether he will resist sus
pension from office during impeach
ment, in case Congress should attempt
it, and there are plenty of men, gener
ally moderate who maintain that he
would be bound to do so if he believed
such a proceeding unconstitutional.
But the fact is, nnd it cannot be too
widely known or deeply pondered, that
to allow anybody to judge of the con
stitutionality of laws except the courts,
and act on his judgment, would produce
anarchy, and reduce Congress to a
nonentity. If the President rmy re
fuse obedience to a law because he be
lieves Congress had no right to pass it,
so may anybody else. His authority
is no more sacred, and not nearly so
much so as the property of any other
citizen; and suppose each citizen were
to take on himself to decide whether a
iax law were unconstitutional, . render
judgment in his own favor. The rule
that every law is presumptively consti
tutional till a court or law Das pro
nounced it otherwise, is of course, as
binding' on the President as anybody
else. The argument drawn from the
inconvenience of having the President
unlawfully stripped of his authority by
the Legislature is worth nothing unless
it enuld be shown that the inconveni
ence would be greater than that of al
lowing each President to decide what
laws he would obey. No political ar
rangement which the ait of man can
devise will prevent a people from some-
limes having to choose between two
evils: and between the evil of having
the pjwer of ihe President or the pow
er of the Supreme Court sometimes
encroached on by the Legislature, and
:he evil of having the laws nullified by
any President who chooses to declare
ihem- unconstitutional, there is really
no room for hesitating. The one
means temporary inconvenience, which
can always be removed by an appeal
to the people, the other means perma.
nent anarchy.
AFFAIRS AT CIIEYEXXE.
It appears that they are having a
lively time" out at the new railroad
city of Cheyenne. The following wilj
give an idea of real estate titles:
On ihe -2t5t.il day of October, 1867,
the Mayor of Cheyenne published the
following notice:
Public Meeting of the Citizens
Of Cheyenm. By request of many
citizvns there will be a public meeting
of the citizens of Cheyenne, this even
ing, nt half past seven o clock, at the
City Hall, for ihe purpose of Hiking
into consideration the action of certain
parties assuming to claim, by right of
occupancy, certain unoccupied lots be-
ougia la o U. I'. 14. It. CVi nnrij
others, within the corporate limits of
th.s city. H. M. Hook, Mayor.
In pursuance of said notice, the cili-
zens or cneyenne assemveu ai me
City Hall at half pist seven o'clock r.
m., and organized by calling Mayor H.
M. Hook to the chair, and electing
Mr. Crawford secretary. The objects
of the meeting were staled by Mr.
Street. In response to the calls of a
portion of the citizens, James R. While-
id argued the right of the town
company, or the agents of the U P. R.
II. Company, to cell and dispose of un
occupied lots.
After the conclusion of the remarks
of Mr. Whitehead, and m response to
loud calls from the citizens assembled,
Isaac S. Hascall appeared and advo
cated the right of citizens to acquire a
title to vacant lots by occupancy.
After the conclusion of ihe remarks
of Mr. Hascall, the same were replied
to by Mr. Whitehead. Thereupon,
Mr. Hascall offered the following res
olutions, which, after remarks by a
number of citizens present, were adop
ted almost unanimously, to wit:
Resolved That it is the opinicnof the
property holders and law abiding citi
zens of Cheyenne, that unoccupied lots
in Cheyenne are subject to location and
occupancy by our citizens; and that the
Union Pacific Railroad Co. have no in
terest whatever in vacant lots, except
in such as have been selected and are
necessary for side tracks, tianding pla
ces, switches, turn outs, depot grounds,
and sites for round houses, machine
shops, etc. etc., nor have the band of
greedy speculators that claim to sell
their good will to unoccupied lots in
this city, any interest in the same, or
any good-will to dispose of.
Resolved, That the laws of the Uni
led States recognize the right of citi
zens to acquire a title by occupancy to
lots in towns and cities upon the public
domain, and ihat any interference with
such right by the military stationed at
Fort li. A. Russell is a gross usurpa
tion of authority, and should meet with
the just condemnation of the citizens of
this gem city of the west, who are en
titled to breathe the pure air of free
dom.
Resolved, That it is our duty to stand
by and protect citizens in the exerce
of the rights guaranteed to them by the
laws of the United States; and we
hereby nledge ourselves to do so.
On motion the meeting adjourned.
The Cheyenne headtr says that on
Saturday night, after a public meeting
had been held at 'he City Hall, and
speeches made on taking posession of
and holding certain lots in this city, a
number of buildings, cabins, etc, were
immediately erected upon lots in differ
ent localities about town, but on Sun
day a detachment of troops arrived
from Fort Russell, who tore down and
removed such erections, with the de
termination to protect the property of
i. the Uuion Pacific Railroad.
The following are the pnnc'ples
and aims of the Republican party:
"In the enjraucftisem'nt of ihe negro,
the disfranchisement of rebels and the
viaintenance of ihe national credit, the
Republican party sees its way to the
accomplishment of its great work, and
in those who accept these issues and
adhere to these acknowlecged respon
sibilities it recognizes its (hue friends
and earnest well wishers."
