The Vote of the State.

Below we give all the additional returns of
the election which have been received up to the
present time, with the most complete table vet
published for the vote for Governor In this
table, besides adding in the complete returns of
counties heretofore heard from in part we have
made such corrections in others as are rendered
necessary by the information which has reached
US. The counties still to be heard from in part
will increase the aggregate vote, but we do not
think will much vary the result now arrived at
Twenty-Five of the counties below reported are
official They are given without any index =
Thirteen counties marked thus have been
heard from only in part, although the remain
ing precincts are but few in comparison with
those reported. From four counties which arc
marked thus (T) we have no returns and have
given merely an estimate, based upon the last
PRESIDENTIAL election, and the circumstances
connected with them. Our estimate will not
be many votes out of the way

The Barbecue at Mokelumne Hill.

MIR. EDIToR If time would have permitted,

the Barbecue held at the HILL on Monday even
ing. There was quite large gathering; and
the highly respectable turnout" ofladies added
dignity to the assembly.
Two sheep and brace of grunters were
roasted, near the Jail, and served up to the null
titude upon temporary tables erected in the
street in front of the U. S. Hotel. The ladies
the balconies of the Union House and u S.
Hotel. The principal houses of the town were
illuminated, and the streets-or rather the pill
lars and porticos of the buldings-were deco
rated with evergreens, and one universal feel
ing of exultation seemed to prevail.
Everything was conducted with order and
decorum. Mr.. Brockway made an able and
eloquent speech, viewing the demonstration as
the Inauguration of reform. He spoke with
high respect of the Board of Supervisors, but
his structures on the Treasurer were severe
have seldom had the pleasure of listening to
Mr.. Brockway, but on the few occasions have
listened to him, his solid and pleasing manner
has been very entertaining.
Dr. Holbrook was, also, loudly called for and
spoke at some length. He denounced the po-
litical trickery of those men who had made it
their special business to advocate in favor of
those believed and known to be corruptin their
official transactions.
DR.. Soher was called upon, and gave a very
interesting account of his acquaintance with
Mr.. Brush, and said that if he had had thou
sand votes to give, Mr.. Brush would got them
all.
Without either inclination or intention to es-
teen lightly the demonstrations Of JOY of any
man, or party of men, really think that this
jollifcation was, to some extent out of Place
Mr. Magee is a resident of Mokelumne Hill, and

my opinion, been better to have it otherwise,
than to show too eager readiness to gloat in
triumph over defeated candidate.
