The state Elections.

The State EloettOD1.
The telegraphic dispatches to the New
Orleans press are so contradictory that it
is impossible to Judge with much certainty
what the result has been. The probability
is that Pennsylvania has gone Democratic
by small majority. The contest has
been very close. The returns from In
diana are meagre, but they indicate that
the Democrats have elected their candi-
date for Governor by a handsome majority.
As to Ohio, she is gone over to the Re-
publicans beyond doubt.
