Boston, Nov. 6.—The result of yesterday's vote for governor in 336 towns foots up Talbot 134,308 Butler 108,321 Abbott, 9,803 Miner, 1,967. Talbot carries every district in the state by a handsome majority, except two Boston districts. Eight towns yet to hear from will carry Talbot's plurality up to 36,000 over Butler. Dr. Loring, Republican, is re-elected in the Sixth Congressional district by 130 plurality without doubt.

PENNSYLVANIA.

Wilkesbarre, Nov, 5.—In the Twelfth district Hendrick B. Wright is undoubtedly* re-elected to congress.

Philadelphia, Nov. 5,—The Democratic state committee concedes the election of Hoy t, Republican, for governor, by 10,000 majority. The Republican com mittee claims it by 25,000, lii the Sixth congressional district, Wm. Ward, Republican, is re-elected bv 5,000 majority. -"i

Pittsburg,* Pa., Nov. 5.—The Green1 back vote in this vicinity falls short ot expectation, a vigorous canvass of Ave hjonths among the workingmen of this city having failed to elect their congressman. Partial retwrtis from sixteen west

ern

counties give a Republican majority of 6,858 on the State ticket. The Republicans re elect Errett in the Twentygeeond and Bayne ia the Twenty-third cangressional districts, and claim* Alle gheny county for the State ticket by 7,000 majority. Shallenburger. Republican, is elected to congress in the Twen-ty-fifth and Osmer, Republican, in the Twenty-seventh districts.

TERRE HAUTE, USD:..—THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1878.

Republican, 1,701 Tree, Democrat, 1,390. The Greenback, Socialist and Prohibition tickets had a very meagre following. The vote from 55 out of 112 precincts in Cook county shows Hoffman, 7,646 Kern, 6,657.

Chicago, Nov. 6.—Two hundred and sixty-seven towns and precincts in Illinois give Smith, 35,566 Cronkrite, ao,989 Bates,8,594.

Cairo, III., Nov. 6.—Thomas\ Republican, majority over Allen, Democrat, for Congress, in Cairo, is 69. The figures are about the same for treasurer. Halliday and Robinson, Democrats, and Hayman, Republican, are elected to the Legislature from the Fiftieth district.

Quincey? III., Nov. 6,—This Congressional district (eleventh) will give Gen. Singleton about 6,000 majority.

Chicago, Nov. 6.—Returns from the city are nearly complete and show a total vote of 44710, and the election ofthe Republican candidates in the courtty. Tnc Republican majorities range from 3 to 10,000, the lowest being for sheriff and the highest for coroner. The plurality for Smith, state treasurer, in the county, is about 11,000. The Greenback vote in the county is about 4,000, and the socialist vote about 7»ooo. Returns from the Thirteenth congressional district makes it prettv certain that Tipton,* Republican, is defeated hy Stephenson, Greenbacker and Democrat, by over 500 majority. Nothing definite from the Eighteenth diktrict yet, but both parties claim it. The indications -are that the Republicans have a fair working majority in the State Legislature, thpugh the Democrats do not concede it.

St. Louis, Nov. 6.—The returns from this state are very meager and scattering. Of course the Democratic State ticket is elected by a large majority, and all probably are. The Democrats will elect a full delegation to congress. The gain will be three members in St. Louis, and one in the Tenth district. Should Col. Crisp, the regular Democratic nominee* is defeated in the Eighth district, Sawver, Independent and Democrat, will be elected in his stead, which will not change the complexion of delegation.

MICHIGAN-

Detroit, Nov. 5.—1W hundred town! and precincu heard trom: Croswell, 39342 Barnes, 23,894 Smith, 24,729.

Detroit, Nov. 6 -In the irst the First Congressional district, New-

berry, Republicar, is undoubtedly elected. Complete returns not yet in. In the second district, 40 towns gave Willetf, Republican, for Congress, 6,739 Card, Democrat, 4,922, Thomas, National,

3,359.

Forty one townb and wards in

the third district, Give McGown, Republican for Congress, 5,517 Upton, Democrat, 3,311

Forty towns in the fourth district give Burrows, Republican, 5,859 Eldred, Democrat, 3,002 Sherwood, National, 379. Thirty-six towns in the fifth district give stone, Republican, 5,312 Hoyt, Democrat, 1,660 Comstock, National, 4.603. Fifty-thre towns and wards in the sixth district give Brewer, Republican, 9,630 McCurdy Democrat, 721 Mead, National, 3,953. Returns from 53 towns and wards iu the Seventh district give Conger, Republican, 5,299 Mitchell, Democrat, 4,• 369 Mallory, National, 2,325. Fi'ty towns in the Eighth district give Hoar, Republican,4,680 Thompson, Democrat, 4,075 HOvt, National, 3,122.*" Thirtyseven towns in the Ninth district give Hubbell, Republican, 3,159 Potter, Democrat, 1,242 Parmlee, National, 5,163. It is conceded that the Republicans elect apart of the Wayne county ticket, butthe vote is quite close and returns are in complete. At th«* present writing the Democrat* probably elect their city ticket.

Detroit, Mich., Nov. 6.—Noon, and the returns come in slowly, but from the present indications the Republicans have undoubtedly elected the entire congressional delegation, from this State, which is a gain of one congressman. In the First district, Newberry, Republicans, are elected in this district by a plurality of i,028.Crosswells plurality for governor will probably be 3°.000. His majority over Webber. Democratic, in '1876, was 23,434. .The Legislature will be strongly Republican. In the city and countv, the Republicans reflected Cous, sheriff, by 1,03s plurality, and elected Diggett, county clerk Plass, register of deeds and Crosby, countytreasurer. Plass' plurality over Lauder, Democrat, is 3,074. The Democrats have a bare majority in the city Council. Up to the present time 450 towns and precincts heard from, give Croswell a plurality of 24,005. At many interior towns the National vote is in excess of the mocratic.

WISCONSIN.

Milwaukee, Nov. 5.—Returns received up to this hour indicate the following result on congressmen: First district, Williams, Republican, re-elected by slightly decreased majority Secorift district, Caswell, Republican, re-elected by an increased majority Third and Fourth districts, in doubt Filth, Bragg, Democrat, re-elected by a diminished majority Sixth, Bouck, Democrat, re-elected by increased majority Seventh, Hum-

Milwaukee, Nov. 6.—In the Fourth Congressional district, Deuster, Democrat,is elected by a stnall majority. In the Third district, Hazelton, Republican, chances ate improving and he is probably re-elected by a stnall majority, which will leave the congressional delegation from this state unchanged.

Milwaukee, Nov. 6.—Full returns from the Fourth congressioral district give Deusler, Democrat, 157 majority.

IOWA..

Chicago, Nov. 5.—The Journal's Des Moines special savs: So far as positively known congressional elections will be held, to-day, in the Second and Ninth districts, and possibly a few friends of Weaver and Gillette in the Sixth ttiid Seventh will vote. A Davenport special says a queer election is being held there. The people met, this morning, elected their own judges and clerks, opened the polls, and proceeded to vote for Hiram Price, Republican, for congress, almost unanimously. The same is being done in Muscatine county.

Chicago, 111., Nov. J.—A dispatch from Davenport says The second election for members of Congress, made necessary by the dispute as to the legality of the October election, was rtgularly conducted in 'every precinct in this county, to-day and generally throughout the Second Congressional district. All the forms of law were carefully observed in this city and township. Hiram Price, Republican nominee elected in October, received 1,206 votes to 120 opposition. The Democrats abandoned organized ef fprt, and some of their number voted for Price. Returns from other townships in the county, indicate a total county fnajority for Price of at least

3,000.

TENNESSEE.

Nashville, Nov. 5.—The election was quiet all over the state, and the vote unprecedented^- light. The entire Democratic ticket in this countv is elected. In the Fourth District McMillen, Democrat, is probably elected over Gollidav, independent. In the Seventh District the vote, is clo$ebetween Whitthorae and Moore, both Democrats. The returns indicate the re-election «f Whitthorne. The legislature is very largely Democratic. Marks, Democratic nominee for governor, has a majority over both the Greenback and Republican candidates.

Memphis, November 5.—There was only half of a full vote east to-day. Returns are coming very slow-4 ly,Casey Young, Independent Democrat, carries this city by not less than 600 majority over William Randolph, Republican nominee. The Greenback vote was very light. Casev Young's majority will, it is thought, be swelled when the returns from ltie country districts are received. Reports from Hardemann and Fayette counties indicate Young's re-election by 1,000 ma-

J°l&oxville,

Nov. 5.—Midnight returns -'"T*

show Taylor, Democrat, in the First district, elected over Rettebone, Republican, and Watkins, Independent, in the Sec ond district.

Memphis, Nov. 6.— The official vote oi this city gi\es Casey Young, Independent Democrat, for congress,

769

major

ity. The estimated majority in the county is i,ooo, which will be increased by the returns from Fayette and Hardeman counties.

VIRGINIA.

Richmond, Va.. Nov. 5.—The election was quiet. The vote was small in this city. Only about 3,000 votes were polled out of a registered vote of over 8,000. The small nes* of the vote was due main ly to the fact that the payment of a per capita tax was required before voting.

Gen. Jos. E. Johston carries the city by over 2,000 majority. Returns from a number of precincts of this district indicate Johnston's election beyond a doubt

Richmond, Nov. 5.—Further returns from the counties ofthe district indicate that Johnston's majority is 1,600 to 1,800. Meaxie returns from the First district indicate the election of R. S. T. Vai!, Con. servative, over Critcher, Independent. In the Second district, the cities of Norfolk and Portsmouth, and Norfol.i county. give Desendorf, Republican, about 150 majority over Goode, Conservative, but returns from other points indicate GJode's election by a fair majority. The Fifth district reelects C. Cabell, Conservative. In the Sixth district, J.Randolph Tucker is elected. There is an ex citing contest in the Seventh district between John T. Harris and John Paul forcible readjuster of the state debt. Returns from over half the district favor Harris' election. General Eppa Hun ton is reelected in the Eighth district, without opposition. Nothing definite from the Ninth district, where there are four candidates.

Richmond, Va., Nov. 5.—Only a few returns from the Nineteenth district, but those received indicate a close contest between Richmond, Conservative, and Mc Mullen, Independent Conservative.

Petersburg. Nov. 5.—-Returns from the Fourth district indicate the re-elec-tion 06Jorgensen,

V'-

Democrats. A Democrat and Greenback is elected to Congress in the Second District by 1,000 majority. Amos Clark, Republican, is probably elected in the third Dtstrict by 250 majority. These two districts have been heretofore classed doubtful.

NEW HAMPSHIRE.

Concord, Nov. 6.—Returns froth 150 towns indicate the election- of Head, for governor, by 1,000 majority. As returned, the house stands 89 Republicans, 6p .Democrats and. 6 Greenbackers. The

Wepublica^»lainv4l^ iMiv« f^rom 35 to 35 majority. The congressional^ districts have not been returned sufficiently full to give definite majorities, but it is probable the Republicans have carried the three districts by strong pluralities, electing Hall in the First, Briggi in the Second, and arr in the Third. The Republicans have doubtless carried 14 senatorial districts, the Democrats 8, with two doubtful.

Concord, N. H., November 6.—166 cities and townsgive Head 33,907

Mc-

Keen, 35457 Brown, 5,366. Head's majority, 1,978 68 towns and place* to be heard from, which will reduce the apparent majority to about 1,000. The House, ts returned, stands 138 Republicans, 75 Democrats, 7 Greenbackers council, 4 Republicans, 1 Democrat Senate, 16 Republicans, 6 Democrats two districts are in doubt, Newmarket and Plymouth, the fnew legislature, will elect a U. S. Senator in place of Wadleigh.

MISSOURI.

Si. Louis, Nov. 6.—There is no lohger any doubt about the Second district of this city. Wells, Democrat, is elected by perhaps 1,000 majority. Likely Frost, Democrat, in the Third district, Will get fully as much. The Greenback vote has not cut much of a figure in either district. The result on the city ticket is not yet determined.

St. Louis, Nov. 6.—An almost complete count of the vote on the city ticket, shows that the Democrats elected eight of their nominees by pluralities from fifty to five thousand, ana the Republicans elected four by pluralities from a hundred knd fifty to twentyeight hundred. The Democratic State ticket secured an average plurality of twenty-seven hundred: in the second Congressional district, Wells, Democrat has a plurality over Cale, Republican, the present incumbent, by about seventeen hundred in the third district, Frost, Democrat, has a plurality over Metcalfe, Republican, the present incumbent of about fifteen hundred.

MARYLAND.

Baltimore, Nov. 5.—Full returns from the Third' congressional district, composed ofthe nine wards of this city, give Kimmell, Democrat, 11473 Thompson, Greenback and Independent, 4,908. Kimmell's majority, 6,564. Full returns from the Fourth congressional district, composed of the other wards of thii citv, excepting the seventeenth, which is included in the Fifth district, give McLane, Democrat, 11,064 Holland,» Republican, 6,691 Quigley, Greenback, 628 Gittings, IndependentDemocrat.

Daltimore, Nov.

5.—Sufficient

hundred

returns

have been received from counties on the eastern shore, comprising the First Congressional district, to in«ure the election of Henry, Democrat, by not less than fifteen

majority. In tlie Second

district, Talbot's Democratic majority will be four thousand. In the Fifth district, Herkless' Democratic majority, it estimated at the Democratic headquarters

Whole No. lOO.

as fifteen hundred. In the 8ixth district, Frederick county is reported as having given over twelve hundred majority for Urner, Republican, which insures hia election in the district, making the delegation stand five Democrats and one Republican.

MINNESOTA.

St. Paul, Minn., Nov. 5.—The election proceeded quietly, but with a full vote in the city, and much scratching in consequence. Scattering returns received indicate that the Greenback vote is insignificant on the state ticket.. Returns on congressman in the Third district indicate that Wa»hburn, Republican, is largely ahead ot the state ticket in Minneapolis, slightly behind in St. Paul and in outside counties. If elected it is by a reduced majority from 1876.

In the Second district, Straight, Republican, runs about even with the state ticket, and is prooably elected. In the First, Dunnell, Republican, is probably elected. No figures on the Republican majority in the state or legislature. The latter is certainly Republican in both bouses, as the Greenback vote makes little showing.

LOUISIANA.

New Orleans, Nov. 5.—The election in the city, and throughout the state, as far known, passed off quietly. The majority of A. E. Burke, tor state treasurer, in New Orleans, is estimated at 18,009. His majority in the state, it is believed, will exceed 30,000. Returns as far as received indicate the election of congressmen as follows: First district, Gibson, Democrat Second, Ellis, Democrat Third, Acklen, Democrat Fourth, Elam, Democrat Sixth, Robertson, Democrat. The colored people

NEW JERSEY.

Trenton, Nov. 6.—The Legislature stands: Senate, 11 Republicans, 10 Democrats. House, 36 Republicans,
