Tie return, io the Eighth Dis,,c, are very
,,artia'; and The general ueli.f Is thot Stanly has
been defeated.
The returns from the Ninth District though
imperfect, render it quite certain tina, Raynerlw.
has been elected by at least 800 majority.
TENNESsEE,--Th State is this great poin,
ofaurscion and interest. The result Of the election
for the general assembly involves question no
less i'm portant than the balance Of power 10 the
United States Senate.
The Nashville Wing Of the 7ib inst says
TIE ELEcIIos. The returns received
to the hour Of writing this paragraph leave
no doub, Of the REELECTION OF GOVERN
OR IoNEs; and an increased Wing major
i'y over the vote OF lS4l is more than
probable. The gain in Middle TenEs ssee
a. far as heard from is l025, while the
vote of Fast Tennessee and the Western
District varies but slightly, thus far, from
the result of IS4l. The nett Wing gsin
in the State is S75.
A Wing House OF Representatives is
beyond reasonable doubt. and We hope to
be able, in our next paper, to announce
the further and complete success of the
good cause in the election Of Wing Leg
is'ature---a majority Oh joint ballot.
We annex the returns as they have
come to hand
From present arp afances, the Congrfs
siona delega.i n will stand asthe Distress
were oprortioned by the last Legislature
20 Wing, 5 T.. +. A little app ehension
is felt by some Of our friends in regard 10
the'success Of Mr. Ashe in the Memphis
district, Hardeman county having given
small increase over its last l.. f. major-
, ty. We believe, however, there is no
good reason as yet. to question Wing
result ia the district.
In Thirty FIVE counties heard from, the
Wing gin on the vote of ls4l is SIS.
The Wing gives tbs names Of seven
Wings and FIVE Locoiocos elect d to the
State Senate, aud Of twenty three wings
and fifteen Locofocos eecte to the House.
Tire Nashville Union e. F. Of the
9Th inst. says:--"Goy. Jones is reelected.
His gain, as far as he ard from. is few
hundred over bis majority Of 1871, AMI
we d. n think the returns yet 20 come
will alter materially the aspect Of things
I'VE are not only beaten, but disappointed. :"
From the other States in which elections have
b,en recently held there are not yet full or salts
factory returns. We give below the latest irfor-
nation from The American of Tuesday.
lNDIANA.-The la,ese returns from
this State we find in the Cincinnati GaZ-
cite of the 9Th inst. The Wings appear
to have los, ground. the Gazette says:
In above 20 counties the Iocos have n
net gain Of upwards of 1000 votes. 10
Marion Co, Bigger (W.) has "a majority
aud , Wings are chosen to the Legs.
laturp. we have nething further positive
in regard 20 the members Of Congress.
r. Louisville Journal says:--
The l,st way-blll from Salem, Indiana,
saws that the Ifou. j. l.. White (w.) is
beaten by majority Of l0l4.
KRNTucKy The Louisville ;ournei
publishes statement Of the polls in that
city on the third day. Tho result was
70, Tbomasson (w.l 1868, and for Le-
compt e.. F. 100. Thomas on is
said have decided majority in the dis
trici, but the turns were not in.
The ClRciuR,t Glzptte says:--
Kentucky We believe there is no doubt
of the elt clon of Tiboats, O.. F. } in the
Covington District by a majority Of two
or three hun lred. There is reason to
think also, that Stone, Gin Gov. Pope's old
DISTRICT and French in the Fleming D,s-
trict, both L.ocos, are elected. 10 this
ease kentucky will lave at least four
Locos in her next ega,ion.

the 9Th inst. publishes the unofficial re-
turns from Washington County with tho
exception of Noun, Vernon district, and
says: -
The result is, the election oftwo wings,
(Messrs. Lang and Todd, 10 the LegIsla-
,ure--the election of Lncofoco Sheriff
and Locof ,co Tax Collector. The
wings will have majority at Mount Yer,
