The election has resulted in the success of Mr..
Samuel links, the Know-Nothing candidate for
the Mayoralty by a majority Of 2,54l votes
over his opponent, Mr. VIM. G. Thomas, which
is gain over the vote cast for Mr.. lIollins, for

the majorites-under the influence of thereccnt
political organization.
The total number of votes cast at this election
for the candidates for the Mayoralty, amounts
to 2i,949. The total vote at the last Presiden-

rug STATE ELECTIONS.

We have additional returns by telegraph
from the recent elections in Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Indiana. They show an almost
total route Of the democracy, and an utter
defeat of the Administration.
in Pennsyls ANA, Judge Pollock, the
Wing and Know Nothing candidate for Gov
ernor, is elected BY majority of probably
not less than twenty thousand votes. Mott,
the democratic candidate for Caual Commis-
sioner, who was also voted for by the Know
NotbInge, runs ahead Of the Governors vote,
and will be elected BY an lnaaleDse nlajori;y.
The Congressional elections have also gone
strongly against the Democrats and the
State will probably be represented in the
next Congress By majority Of anti-Nebras-
ka Wings. The State Legislature will so
be Wing in both branches, thus securing =
Wing Senator 70 the place of Mr. Cooper.
