A friend writing from Greenville, says:
"The fight is over and the Democrats are mast
of the field with the exception of the Senate.
Never before has there been so fierce struggle in
this County, and on the part Of the Wings it has
been carried with the relentless ferocity of Ind
warfare. All that money could do, all that in
limitation could do all that personal and family in
huence could do-all was done in vain. Sngetary
the foremost man, and he and Blow elected.
We have lost the Senate by six votes This is owing
to the fact that Mr. Carr was confined to his bed
during the greater part of the canvass and still
to the manufacture of Senate voters by the Wings
1t is also notorious that spurious Senate votes
cast at various precincts But reviewing the
campaign we have every to rejoice at the
suit. By the pure strength of Democratic princ-
pies and the indefatgable efforts of our candidates
we have achieved a triumph over the Whigs-their
mOney-their oratorS-thcr hired DULLES and their
pens of floating voters who were hauled by the
to the polls surrounded by their keepers. 1t is
perfect New Orleans victory, and decides that hence
forth Pitt is Democratic"
Our friends in Pitt have done remarkably well
der the circumstances.
