LECTI0ES-henWChy. Inc election IN tins
State was merely for members of the Legisla-
ture. In Jefferson county, Hobbs (Whig) and
Morwether Dem have been elected. Meri.
wether had a small majority over Speed, Wing.
Mason county elects Wings and Democrat.
In kenton and Campbell counties the Demo
Gratis are successful as usual. In Louisville,
usually largely Wing, one Democrat and one
Wing arc elected. The vote stood-Page,
Wing, 1884, Craig, Wing, 1914; Irvine, Dem,
1928; Haggin, Dem, 1876. The Louisville
Ledger says;
This result, though not expected in the city,
will cause some surprise out oft. The defeat
OF Mi. Craig, (Whig) originated in variety OF
causes. His nomination was in the first place
violently opposed and engendered much ILL
feeling. The mechanics have always had a
candidate chosen from their ranks, and Mr..
Craig being lawyer, their votes were gener-
ally cast against him Mr.. Craig having been
Native, many voted against him for this rea-
son; whilst, on the other hand on account OF
his desertion of the Natives on the eve of the
election, the Natives did every possible thing
against him. Over three hundred Wing votes
were thrown for Irwin (Dem.) Hundreds oil
Wings refused to vote, and the whole vote
polled in the city is very small, about $780,
The Wings have themselves pulled down the
banner they erected over their "banner city,
Indiana. From this State we have the fol-
lowing reported majorites for Governor:

The Cincinnati Commercial says:
In Green and Owen counties there is a con,
siderable gain for Marshall. The returns a,
far as received indicate that Marshall, wing, is
elected. Whtcomb's majority at the last cleo
ton having been about 1900. The same ratio
Of increase for Marshall which has taken place
in the counties heard from will elect Marshall
by three or four thousand majority. These re-
ports are substantially correct, but not actually
accurate as to precise figures. The Legsla
ture may yet bel considered doubtful. Tn
wings have made several gains.
Missouri. The election in this State waslfo
members of Congress and the Legislature. A
ST. Louis, when the papers of the 4th inst. wen
to press, the votes had not all been counted
but it was supposed that the Natives were sue
cessful in all but Congressman, Judge Bowlin

Col. Joyner, wing, is elected to the Senat

House, where the wing majority last year wa
