AMERICA.

New York, Nov. 10. The New York, New Jersey, anji Maryland State elections just passed have gone in favor of the Democrats by tremendoua majorities — New .York State by- 4Sj;000, New Jersey by 13,000, and Marylaul by 30,000. The rebuke to the Radicals ia fearful. This city alone gave 61,000 majority against them, and the city of Brooklyn 14,500. The Democrats in the State of « Massachusetts have brought the Radical *t: - majority down from 65,000 to 20,000. In Kansas, negro suffrage has been re- \, pudiated by 6000 majority, and women - suffrage by 2000 ; in Wisconsin and Mm- , • nesota negro suffrage has been repudiated by large majorities; Missouri also has repudiated negro suffrage, but elect their candidates by small majorities. The people are everywhere becoming disgusted with Radicalism. President Johnson is jubilant. The question of impeaching the President is now almost certain to fall dead, although senator Wade, and representatives. Thaddens Stevens and Benjamin F. Butler still continue earnestly and boldly to advocate it. They are determined to establish negwJ suffrage. ■ The Presidential race is commencing; there is a split in the ranks of the Repub^ lican party. The Conservative wiug favors General t-irrant, while the Radicals Want Chief Justice Chase, old Ben Wade, Speaker Colfax, Gen. Butler, or some other strong Radical nominated. On the Democratic side, Horatio Seymour, who favors the payment of the national debt in gold, and John W. Pendleton, of Ohio, who urges the payment of it in greenbacks, are brought forward, and one or other of them appears likely • to be nominated. It will most probably ! fall upon the former. .. . ; Should General Grant be nominated by the Conservative Republicans, there ia little doubt that he will cany everything before him, and be elected President of the United States. . . All arrangements for the trial of Jefferson Davis have been completed ; the trial will certainly commence before the United States District Court in Richmond Vir- .-.i ginia, on the 21st inst. *■■ The Indian war is at an end. The ww- r > like tribes have agreed upon the. terws. of

peace with Government, and have consented to leave the Pacific- railroad alone.
