States
The election in New Jersey for members Of
Congress, we have already stated, has resulted
in favor Of the Administration ticket by a large
majority. We have no official returns; hut
from private sources entitled TO credit, we learn
that the majority in Cape May is computed al
$50; in Cumberland at $50; and Salem al 200;
in Gloucester about zoo: in Burlington, from
seven out Of twelve townships, the majority is
400, and will be increased to or 700; in Sum-
erse, there is small majority; in Middlesex
majority Of 900; in six out of twelve townships
of Essex, there is majority of l,Il7, which
will be increased by subsequent returns; in
Bergen, the returns from four townships give
Us 81 majority, the remainder doubtful on Ell
tier side. From Morris nothing is heard GER
hnly, though we are assured there is a MAORI
y for the administration ticket From Sus-
SEX w arreD, and Monmouth, there are no
nluns, but it is supposed they, together, viii
give majority Of 700 to 1000 for the Jack
son ticket. The returns from Hunterdon, are
also imperfect, owing to the storn-the lower
townships gave 2o6 majority for the admins
traliOu, and Amwell, with two other upper
townships, gave 226 for the Jackson ticket, and
Tour tOwnships to hear from. The probability
is, that The latter ticket will havea majority IN
HuntrdOn of from $50 to 800 votes. Hence it
appears that there are majorilies for the admin
isralion ticket, in nine of the fourteen counties
Of the state, and perhaps in one other.
