Election for Sheriff.

The voters of Baltimore assembled yesterday in the
several wards for the purpose of choosing, f among
the various candidates, person fill the responsible Of
fee OF sheriff for Baltimore city for the ensuing three
years.
The sheriff elect Charles F. Cloud, ESQ., was the reg
ular democratic nominee. The wings made no nominal
ton but pretty generally concentrated upon Mr. Clouds
principal competitor, Col George p Kane Mr. MITCHELL
The third highest candidate, is democrat and Messrs.
Hance and Shut are wings.
To those out OF the city may not be generally known
that every voter has right ballots for two cand
dates though is only necessary for him vote for one;
hence the apparently unusual large vote cast. The
son of this voting for two candidates s that in case OF
the death OF the sheriff elect the second highest on the
return fills the station for the remainder of the term
The following is the vote for each of the candidates in
the several wards from which il will be seen that Chas
F Cloud esq., is elected by majority of 1877 votes over
Colonel Kane.
The total result sums up az follows:

Thus, 1t will be seen that without counting the
material increase of population, the Reserve can
poll from 5000 to 1000 more votes than she did
at the October election.
The full vote, therefore, in the Reserve counties.
IN November, 1t is reasonable to calculate at
$4,000
How will this vote be divided!
From the best information have received, 1t is
certain that General Casss vote cannot exceed the
vote OF Colonel Weller, but will most likely fall
short of it.. Say. he gets $4,000; Gen. Taylor s
vote will be some five thousand less than Governor
Ferd's, say 20, 900, which will leave tor Mr.. Van
Buren, vote of about $1,000; and clear majority
the majority General Cass will receive outside of
the Reserve, which put at 1000:
And Is il possible The reader may be ready
to exclaim that the race will be thus close IN
Ohio!
That such is the anticipation of both the partles

efforts made by their leaders to draw out every
voter IN their ranks
