Official vote Lorain Oountjr-1868. Is flt. 1808. Jority to about one thousand. The i most those who voted in Olmsted democrats have gained one congressman Voorhees by a few votes but his seat will be contested. The republicans have a Large majority in Trio legislature and will elect a senator to Tako Tho place of Hendricks. In Nebraska Trio Republican majority is Over two thousand and Tho legislature is almost unanimously Republican the Senate Baing unanimous and Only five democrats elected to the House. The result is a glorious Triumph of republicanism and a fitting rebuke to the Dis organizing traitorous principles of the rebel democracy. Let us to up and doing prepared for the last great attack along the whole Lino which will on these papers have been arrested some of whom Havo not been in the country two years. The Register also charges that David Plizner the Copperhead of Ottawa county and ii Iio singly issued a false and Nattini ligation certificate to one whom he knew to be an alien and not entitled to be naturalized.

The second Day after Tho elec Tion when the returns showed that the last Hippo had vanished before the Republican majorities the world came in a double leaded Lender advising the democracy to drop Seymour and Blair and put somebody in nomination in whom the people have Confidence. This was telegraphed Over the land and created terror and alarm the leaders. Seymour hastened to notify tie committee in new York that he would if they thought Best and Blair in response to a serenade made the same proposition. This is the potable end Tiou in which the democracy Are now placed but set Peter cannot save them even if they make a new ticket to is the Abom Niblo principles they advocate that the people so earnestly condemn. Men no of Little account now. Measures Are what the voters Are looking to.
