tiOnal returns have been received .
ILLINOIS
At noon to-day We see no reason to doubt
the accuracy of John Wentworth conclusion,
that this State has grievous!y disappointed its

sources. contfadicting Wentworth's dispatch
to the New York Ersniag Post, leads US to
the Conclusion indicated above. Wentworth
claims it for the Republicans by 10000 ma
FORTY, which may or may not be extravagant
Also, that the entire Fremont State ticket -
