THE GRAND RESULT IN THE STATE.

THE GRAND RESULT IN THE STATE.
Below we give table Of the vote of loo counties,
out of the IA counties &c. in the State, thus lar
heard from. 1t will be that leaving out the re-
ported majorities in kanawha and Tazewell, Mr..
Wise's majority is 1853. The remaining counties
usually give lnrgo Democratic majorty-they IN
clude the strong Democratic counties Of I.se, Scott
Carroll, Graysou, Barbour, Wetze, Lewis, &c. The
vote in tho counties, to be heard from, will swell Mr.
Wise's minority to at least 10000.
For Congress, there s doubt to the result in
single District save that of Mr.. Lewis from which
we have few reported returns All tho other mem
bers of Congress are doubtless reelected.
For tho Legislature, We have already gained ano
lost Senators, and gaued Is and lost II members o
tho House OF Delegates retaining the
Democratic ascendaucy in tho Legislature.
