Mississippi Democrat. (Carrollton, Miss.) 1844-18??, 1845-11-12

or We append returns of the election
as far as received. In our next we will
publish table of the votes for Governor,
members of Congress, Chancellor, Judge
High Court Sd district, Circuit Judge 9Th
district, &c. We observe that in some
counties the wing vote is cast for l. N. Da-
Wis, of Pamela, for Governor. Jehu Wall,
of Amite, known at home as the Duke of
Tickfau,' and very clever, worthy man,
is voted for as candidate for Congress, al
though, we believe, he peremptorily de-
clined the canvass. From the returns re-
ceived, we estimate the democratic maio-
rity in the State at between seven and eight
| thousand.

In these counties, including CARROLL

GRAY district attorney.
SIXTH JUDICIAL DIsTRIcT.-For Judge,
Rogers, 1859; Cochran, 1902; Waul, 1900;

roe counties to hear from,
AMENDMENTS OF THE CoNsTITUTIoN.-The
vote in this county was almost unanimous
ly IN FAVOR of both the proposed amend
ments of the State Constitution.
or The Mississippian announces the
appointment of J. w. CHALMERS, of Holly
Springs, to fill the vacancy in the U. S. Sc
nate from this State, until the meeting Of
the Legislature. The State paper is care
full to add-"The commission was transmits
ted, by mail, to Judge Chalmers" &c.-fron
which we infer that this appointment is no
dependent upon contingencies and tina
there is no danger of another suppression

BOARD OF PoLTcE.--At the recent cleo
ton, there was tie between M. T. Purnel
and Hector Mcneil. The returning off
Ger gave casting vote in favor of the lat
ter: but he had before giUen a UOte IN thu
election. If this is not informal and illegal
the law is defective, and Should be amend
ed. We believe the returning officer haC
no right togive casting vote, after having
voted.
i JOHN G.. CALHoUN.-Preparations wer,
making by the city authorities of New Or
