yesterday morning it dropped down to
1900, and the next plunge to four hundred.
The last dispatch says 6 400 to 500 We
put it 500 in our table. Clinton County
came first $50 for Hunt two or three
hours later 1880 for Seymour :" and little
later $40 for Seymour SO with Frank
lin, which was first $50 for Hunt" and
then 400 for Seymour" Madison and
Jefferson have frisked about considerably.
Such caprices make editorial labor severe
and conclusions unreliable. But we shall
venture on the strength of what we have
to HuRRAH FOR Hunt Should there
be any slip-up, our Cotton friends may
HurTah for Seymour as much as they
choose.
Nothing certain can be known of the
residue of the State Ticket. We think all
the candidates on each ticket will be found
on the whole to have run nearly even.

In the above table, we have given the

Seymour has not over l,400 We have
given Seymour coo in Suffolk, where Tie
reports vary from 500 to 500. We put
Clinton at the highest report, (bccausc the

are all few votes over our latest (Whig)
reports; while our latest from Cortland is
ESQ for Hunt, instead of 300 and we
keep Wayne at 200, while the Albany Re
ejSter has Tclegraphic flyer, saying that
it has given Hunt sir hundred. Sullivan
600 for Hunt may be fraction too high {;
while we put Allegany 100 for Hunt, on the
strength of dispatch, stating that it has
given - small Wing majority on the State
Ticket" We believe both Saratoga and
Schenectady will give Hunt maiorities a
triGc larger than we have in our table. We
have returns from every County bur Cat

we believe WAsnINoToN Hunt our next
Governor by about 1900 majority There
is bare possibility that future corrections
of fifty votes in this County and twenty in
that may defeat him, but it is not one
chance in thousand.
The telegraph has played US such
tricks, during our last two days and three
nights steady work on Election Returns,
that we hardly know how to trust it at all.
