The returns from the counties of Kent
and Ottawa, settle the question of the cleo.
ton of Gov. Mason, by majority of over
SIX HUNDRED votes, and of Lieut.. Gov.
Mundy by majority somewhat lcss.-
The accounts from Ottawa, Ionia and
Kent, which may be relied on, are, that the
democratic majority for Governor and
Lieut. Governor in these counties is $40.
Mr.. Ball, the democratic candidate for the
House of Representatives, is elected by
about the same majority. Mr.. Bradford,
the democratic candidate for Senator from
the 9Th district, is also elected by decided
majority. This secures us SEVEN out
