Correspondence Of The n. l. Tribune
MADISON, Wis, Monday, Nov. 10, 1855.
This is the fourteenth day since our State
election. but so complicated has that election
been-blendiDg so many issues, general and local,
az well as pe1sonal-thst it is DOT until now that
we have been able to say with confidence what is
the result Our papers ON both sides have steadily
figured up majority for their gubernsto'lal can
ddates. until Saturday evening, when The Argus
yeptured only figures of speech on the subject
ayerripg it's confidence Of BsrstoT's election, but
falling to give the aIithmetical proof Today
il seems 10 be conceded that Bashtotd the hePub-
Ucsn candidate is 10 be orr Governor for the next
two Years We have the official returns from
twenty seven Coubtes, and thus far Bashtord gains
upon the first reported msjortles. The most ren'
able calculation to-day puts him 500 ahead oi dis
onroncnt and il is difficult to zee how the returns
vet 10 come in can do away with this ascertalned
majority. A.,
The other state officers conceded to the
Democrats or Barsto ~ites for it is singular fact
that Bsr,tows strength has elected those on the
ticket with him While his personal un popularity
has ce<ated himself The rummies have 6sen
heavily in debt 10 BarstOw for his veto OF the lem
nerapce bill. and they have bet doing their best to
nav oh the old score in the hope OF galni0g ne"
credit and obtaining " security for the future
The Assembly will have a small Democratic ma
iority in the House, and q small Republican ma
jOIit, in the Senate o

scspeprsces that we have in these scsPegrace
days. -c,

for the Senate.
