Grant Ccunty EelecV.on—Notes to think of.
AH considered, the result of the elec
tion in Grant county is highly favorable
and creditable. The day was a hard one
for Republicans, who generally live in the
country. It was favorable for democrats
who inhabit the villages where elections
are generally held; the gods were surely
vexed about something, and sent a blus
tering storm; a regular nor-easter blew
Bp the night before election, spread wide
through Wisconsin and Illinois, and bro’t
rain from opening till closing of the polls;
it was an avenging rain—such as omens
no good to our cause but much for the
enemy. But, the day of final retribution
against “king cotton” is only postponed.—
The Cesars did not fall in a day, but their
fall was a leveller when their time was
full. They fell to rise no mom. What
has been will be.
