Hendricks ai Vice-President, of the United States The following extracts from daily pap ers will give some idea of the charac. ter of the battle fought and won on the 4th day of November, 1884, and of the results in the different States of the Union; P rom the News and Courir, November 5. ] At this iour, 3 A. M, the telegrami from $be North and West leave it in doubt whether Cleveland or Blaine it elected. Early in the night all the re ports.were favorable to Cleveland, and at one time it was countlently asserted that the Democrats had carried New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, In diana, California and Nevada, as well as the Solid South, and had a chance of carrying Massachusetts and Wiscon sin, besides securing 8 votes on the Fusion ticket in Michigan. lefor midnight there was a change for the worse in the character of the returns. It is now uncertain that Cleveland ha, carried New York State, although th< chances are still in his favor. The Ie. publicans claim to have carried New Jersey, where the latest I)emoc-atic re turns give 7,000 majority, and, besides this, boast that they have placed Vir ginia in the Republican colhamtn. The probabilities still are that the Democrats will be shown to have car ried New Jersey and Indiana, aid most likely Connecticut, and there is noth Ing discouraging and much that is en couraginat- in the reports from Michti gan anal Wisconsin. Without New York State, however, Cleveland can not be elected. We hope to be able, in a few hours, to givo more definite tidings of the re sult of the mnomentons contest which took place yesterday. The following dispatch from the lion. I. 3. Smalloy, secretary of the National I)enocr"atic Committee, was received at 2 A. M.: Ni.w Youa, November 4.-To F'. W. Dawson: We have carried New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, and think we have carried Indiana. li. 1. SMLl.uv. [Fromn the Newos and Uourier, November ;.] The long agony is not vet over. Until late last night it was comflident lv claimed by the New York Times an'd by the National Democratic Committee that Cleveland had a plurality of 5,000 in New York State. Later dispatches, however, brought the unwelcome in telligence that the vote was so close that the official count would bo neces sary to determine whether Blaine or Cloveland had carried the State. The prospects for the Detmocrats are brighter by far than yesterday; but Blaine is reported to have been sun mnoned to Newv York-for no good pnr p)ose, we mayv 1h0 sure-anmd It, is d1ifl cult to tell what to-dlay wvill bring fort ha. New Jersey and Connecticut are uni dloubtelyv Demnocratic, and( the D)emo cratic leaders clim that Indiana has been placed in the yscemocratic column. Late dlispatches, however, say thuat it will need the oflicial counit in that State as well as in New York. Ini Michigan the Fusion electoral ticket has a majority, but, the full vote of the State haas not yct been reported. TIhe following dispatch n as receivedl at 7 o'clock last evening from Seniator A.

[Special to the Newa and Courier.] Nxw YoRK, November 6. - The reets are full of people to-night, and te grreatest excitement prevails. Re ublicians as'well as )einoorats believe iat Cleveland is elected, and the in ignation over the attempt of Steve Ikiii and Jay Gould to steal the vote this State 'is not confined to those ho voted for Cleveland.

On election night when it and e lIepublican National ('omnittee ere conceding this State to Cleveland Was, at the sa:me time telegraphing I over the con iii iv that Bhi ie would rry New York by a large majority. e feeling is that the returis have en withheld for the purpose of inipulation. Those which have bee'! it out are very inaccurate, and al ivs and invariably in favor of the pnblicans., By this nicais they kept 3 true vote of the State from the blie until the truth was ascertained rough special dispatches. Up to this hour almost everv point the State has been heared froim, and cre is no doubt that Cleveh'mel has rried the State by a sure- and titi r urality. To-niight Senator Gorman, chairman the National Democratic Executive )imittee, sent the following dis ,tch to John Lee Carroll, of' Mary ad. "The claim of the National Republi i Committee is laughed at by everv >ly. We have carried New York yond a question."

WEARY OF RIS LIVE. TUE ATTEMPT OW Ex.GOVEItNOR MOSES TO HANG HIMSELF. Out Down by a Fellow.Prisoner Just in Tine to gave his Life--He Gets a Dose of Michigan Justice. [From the Detroit Free Press, October 31.] Ex-Governor Franklin J. Moses, of South Carolina, charged) with stealing $1f from the Rev. E. L. Rex ford, D. D., pastor of the Universalist Church, by obtaining that amount from him by falsely representing himself as the Rev. Dr. JIlck., of Washington, spiritual advisor of Guiteau, the assassin of President Garfield, made an attempt, about o o'clock yesterday morning, to hang himself in his cell in the county jail. The prisoner made a rope from two handkerchiefs, which he he placed around his neck and tied one end to his cell door. Ile then kicked a stool on which he stood from under his feet, and was struggling when the noise was heard by a prisoner who occupied an adjoining cell. The inmates of this ward are not locked up in their cells at night. This saved the ex-Governor's life. The prisoner who heard the noiso arose and going into the corri dor found Moses hanging. His face had turned black, and in a minute or two more he would have been strangu lated. The prisoner used an old pair of scissors which were allowed in the ward for hair-trimmning purposes to cut the would-be suicide lown, and laid him on his bed, where he was re vived through' the exercises of other prisoners, who had been awakened by [ cry of alarm. Moses said but little >f his attempt, although lie ucknowl edged that he was determined to (lie rather than go to prison. lie realized the position he was in and tor some ime had been very despondcnt. This wac the first attempt at suicide in the ail for nmanyv years. When Moses was brought into the >olico court yesterday afternoon for rial, he looked very pale and feeble mnd displayed some nervousness, lie vas neatly dressed in black, but had uId unshorn face, which lie turned way from>the spectators who gathered o get a g"limpse of him. In front of le prisoner's box sat, the Rev. Dr. Rex 'ord with his wife and daughter, ready :o proceed with the case. Moses eyed he reverend gentlemen whom he had nwindled, but did not speak to him. At 2.15 o'clock Justice Miner called the case of "John F. May," when his Attorney, George X. M. Collier, arose and asked that it be continued until the mental condition of his client could be established. Ile said that since the last adjourlnent of the case lie had made diligent efforts to get witnesses here in his behalf, but had failed. IIe had corresponded with a number of persons in the Southern States, who were acquaintances of the prisoner, and received several answers; but on account of the election excitement they could not come here until after the close of the campaign. Among the letters was one from the secretary of the navy, who wrote that the son of the prisoner is in th.navl depart mecnt in Calif'ornia. It was certaini that he could not comic to help his father out. Justice Minior rep)lied that the case had already been continued anm unusual length of' time, and he could not see how the prisoner could be benefited by another adjourinmnt. There is n'o p)ositive assurance that wit nesses in his behalf would be present at a intur~e time. If a continmunce was granted it could onily be done unitil November 5, as the case will theni have beeni in court for' a month, and( under' thme law it, must be disposed of in that time-other wvise thme court would have no jurisdic tioma. Mia. Collier' said that lhe was author ized by his client to say that if lie does not furnmish anyv evidence at the time thme case is adjourned to lie will with draw his p)lea of niot guilty amnd plead guilty. The attorney agreed1 that if the Court was dlisinclinled to grant an. other adjourminent it would be useless to proceed to trial, as the facts in thme case were wvell uniderstood and a trial w~ouild be waived. The Court said that he had beeni veryv ind(ulgenlt in the matter of con tinning the case, both to the comn p)lainiant and thme defend(anit. Th'le busi ness of the court dlemanded that it be deposed of within the time rprescribed by law. Mr. Collier' said in answer to this that an adjournment of two or' three (lays w~ould be oif noC benefit to him. ~Justice Minicr: ''What (10 you intend to show for your' client?''
