THE ELECTION IN DELAWARE STATE.
Editors Correspondence.
NEWCASTLE, DELAWARE Nov. III, 1876.
The election in Delaware yesterday terminated in
the reelection Of the Hon. John w. Houston
(whig) to Congress by decided majority over his
opponent, John Dlworth, (democrai;) also, in the
election Of tcofrds Of each branch ofe legislature
phg comprising all the members for Newcastle and
Kent countless and two-hrds of all the county Off
GERS in the State. .s. s........ q.
Owing entirely to local causes, this decidedly
wing State has elected the locooco candidate will
liam Tharp) for governor, by small majority,
about $50 only. But, as the governor has no veto
on the laws and no legislative power or CONTROL his
election is regarded as Of no Importance compared
with the result Of the great victory which the wings
have secured in spite Of the most un,ring efforts Of
the locos--the election Of whig senator for six
years, as the term Of the Hon. Thomas Clayton
(whg) expires in March next
Delaware will still be, "a ever, wing in all her
congressional representation in both houses,
Lest this great wing triumph may be somewhat
robbed Of its lustre by being too compressed, we
beg leave to add the following additional information
a little more in detail: Es1tl .'
The "dscidcd Majority Of Mr.. Houston (F) is 80
votes. The "Su,aH majority" Of Mr. Tharp (D) is
$50 votes. The wing majority in the legislature is
understood to be one in each house-total 2. So we
infer, that if the wings have succeeded "n the cleo

THIRD SENATE DISTRICT

The vote in Schohare county, on lieutenant gov
ernor, is not given; but the town Of Fulton gives
Young 81, Gardiner 1887; and it is probable that
in the county there is a heavy majority for Gardi-
ner. Thus in a district giving 5000 for Young,
there is a majority Of $4,000 for the democratic
lieutenant governor--promising a majority in the
State for Gardiner hardly less than that of Young.

founded on information from New York, in which
we placed the utmost reliance. We leave our friends
to estimate changes they choose from the lights

the American Citizen agent of an anti savery pub
LEGATION, to be called a"Nationa Liberty Paper am
utterly at loss to know how my name could have
been brought before an anti-savery convention in
Illinois, or in any place. 1t vas entirely without
my authority and totally opposite to my senti-
ments. am myself stakeholder, and never had
the least idea of lending my OF influence to the
promotion of such cause that which is advoca-
ted by the convention, and the paper referred to
in your article The existence Of the convention,
and the proposition of establishing the paper,
learned only from the Index. These abolitionsts
had quite much reason and authority for publish
ing your own name, or that Of the governor of
Georgia, as agent for this proposed publication.
doubt not, dear sir, that you will take pleasure
in publishing the above and thus prevent my suffer-
ing injury from this unauthorized and most unjust.

taking for which have no more sympathy or favor
than yourself. ~,
