GAINS.

A glance at the following table of gains
will show the counties which have most dis
tinguished themselves in this great victory.
Several in our immediate vicinity have CO.
vered themselves with glory. We allude to
Union with her 305 gain > to Lincoln,
Davidson, &c.) Thus far, Union heads the
list. and is entitled to the banner. We re-
greet that she could not know beforehand

yearly increasing in numbers. Let them
continue in their gallant struggle for the
principles of the Constitution and the cause
of the South, and eventually their efforts
will be crowned with complete success
Look at the numerous counties in the State
breaking the shackles of Know othingism
and affording evidence that the irresistible
wave of public opinion is driving the mon
ster beyond the borders of an enlightened
and patriotic Southern people.

cARARRus COUNTY.
THE LEGISLATURE.

In the last Legislature there was large
Democratic majority. In the next Legis-
lature that majority will be greatly increas-
ed.
The Democrats have gained a member in
Wake, one in Alamance, three in Orange.
one in Granville, two in Halifax, two in
Chatham, one in Columbus, and one in
Greene. The Known lettings have gained
one member in Brunswick and one in Yad-
kin. A clear Democatic gain, thus far, of
TEN members.
In Catawba, Col. Ruth, (Dem.) is elect
ed to the H. of Commons, over the late
member, Mr.. Shirrell.
In CASTOR, Col. Richard Rankin Dem
is elected to the H. of Commons.
In Lincoln, Col. A. P. Cansler (Dem.) is
elected to the H. of Commons.
James H. White, Esq, (Dem.) is re-
elected Senator from the above 3 counties.
DR.. Mills (Dem.) is reelected to the Sc
nate, from the Rutherford district, over DR..
Miller TX. ny
In Cleaveland, Ramsour and Blanton
(DemOcratS) are electeu TO the house OF
Commons.
Coleman (the gallant Coleman) every De-
mocratic in this section will rejoice to learn,
is elected to the Senate in the Buncombe
district. The most INSCRIPTIONS and des-
-perate efforts were made by the copper
mead Know N othings of Buncombe to de-
feat him, but the vipers bit file. This we
:egard as the great victory of this section
# the State.
In Union-glorious Union-it will be per-
;eived by the returns above, D. Rushing,
Esq. Dem.) is elected to the H. Of Com
mons by very fattering vote.
Another gratifying result is the election
# Paul c. Cameron, Esq, to the Senate,
rom the Orange District. Mr.. c., it will
De remembered not long since, cut Sans
acquaintance.
Buncombe has, on this occasion, washed
her hands entirely clean of Know N Nothing
ism. She has also elected Marcus Erwin
(Dem.} to the II. of Commons, and given
Gov. Bragg handsome majority--so we
learn.
T. S. A traveller reports that there is
but one single Know-Nothing elected in the
whole country west of Charlotte, and that
derson county. In day two we shall
know whether this good news be true or
not.

GLORIOUS VICTORY
BRAGG ELECTED!
9 TO 10000
Democratic Majority!

Thanks to the indomitable Democracy
OF North Carolina, we have the pleasure of
proclaiming to-day one Of the most gIori-
ors Democratic victories ever achieved in
the State. 1t is complete, decided, and
overwhelming. Known othingism is not
only beaten, but beaten so badly as to leave
no hope for it in the Old North State. Let
the friends of the Constitution, of equal
rights and of civil and religious liberty re-
Jolce. You have saved your State from
the Illuminating and Notifying rejoicings
of the Bankses, the Summers, the Wilson's
and the Stewards; and you will receive the
thanks and the plaudits of the Democracy
of the whole Union, for your signal victory
Below we give returns from 80 counties
out of the 80 in the State. These exhibit
a clear average gain of about IS votes for
each county, and give assurance that Gov.
Bragg's majority will range between and
10000. This settles the question, respect
ing the vote of North Carolina, in Novem-
Der, beyond all dispute
Look at the returns, and compare results
with the vote two years ago. The Democ-
racy have not only done well at home-here
and in this Congressional district-but in
all parts of the State, North and South,
East and West

.WecEEcMblsrS County.

Below will be found the result of the
election in this county Thursday. 1t will
be seen that the Democratic triumph is
complete and overwhelming. Governor
RRAGG has majority Of 4O1-WILLIAM
R. MYERS, Esq, for the Senate, majority
of l42-WM. NJ. MATTHEWS, ESQ. for the
House of Commons, 439, and WILLIAM
F. DAVIDSON, Esq, also for the Commons
a majority over DIR. Isaac WILSON OK. NJ
of $50. E. G. GR1ER, Esq, O) is re
elected Sheriff, without opposition, 10y
vote of 1875. The Democrats of Meek
Ienburg have thus spoken, in tones of thun-
der, against Known othingism. Gen. j. A.
You've, whom Mr.. MYERS has so badly
beaten, is on all hands acknowledged to
be one of the most popular gentlemen in
the county, still hanging on to the soiled
and tattered garments of Sam.
The election passed off quietly. Although
much interest was exhibited, as to the re-
suit, we witnessed nothing Of a disorderly
or unpleasant character during the whole
day.
The returns from every precinct in the
county are highly gratifying. They were
received by the Democrats of Charlotte, as
they came in from the several Boxes, on
Thursday night, with many demonstrations
of qualification. We commend to particu-
ular notice the vote at Hart's." Sam is
stranger in that part of the county.
We annex the vote of 1854, and also
the vote of 1855, for Congress, to enable
a comparison to be made
