THE PENNSYLVANIA ELEcrIoH--ofi-
ciaI re- urns have been received from every
county in Pennsylvania, showing the fol-
lowing results

For Hazlehurst. American. 28,I60
Packers plurality over Wilmot is con-
sequently 4s.743. and his majority over
both IA, 583.
Compared with the last Presidential
election. when Mr.. Buchanan received
$50, ITO votes. the Democrats lose Al ,82o.
On. Fremont's vote of 147, $40. the Re-
lpublicans lose only 1.363. Net Republi-
can gain, 40,457.
An astute Democratic contemporary in
this city was so nettled by our figures a
few days ago, showing net gain of 49,
044 in thirty counties then fully heard
from, that it has hardly been able to speak
the ruth since. What will be the effect
of its continued i'll luck, as shown by the
complete official count, we will not try to
conjecture, nor is il of much consequence.
Official figures are not supposed to lie,
whatever sham Democratic organs may
do, or however inexpert their conductors
may be at honest ciphering.
The American party in Pennsylvania
has dwindled down from 80, l75, (cast ior
Fillmore last Fall, to 90, 160. 1t cannot
