Nav YORK, Nov. 8.
As far as we have yet received returns
Ullmann has $4,000; Seymour, $4,000
Clark, 10000, and Bronson, 1000 votes, for
/ Governor. The contest between Umann
and Seymour will be very close, bit the
chances now arc in favor Of Ulmann, the
candidate of the Know-No,hings. The
returns from this city are not yet one-fourth
canyassed, but enough is known to justify
the belief that Barker, Know-No,hing, is
elected Mayor nevertheless the contest
between him and Wood will be close.
SECOND DESPATCH.

are SO mixed mp that it is impossible to ar
rive at at any idea of the results OF the elec-'

been received this morning, bnt all indicate
the triumph of the Know Noihings.
