Lincoln's majority over Douglas is $50. These
returns were all received by telegraph in more
than one hundred messages, and mistakes have
probably occurred, and the official returns may be
required to determine certainly whether Lincoln or
Douglas has carried the State. Douglas will pro-
badly gain few hundred votes in the remainder
of the State, but the probabilities are now in Lin
coins favor.
As near as can be ascertained the members of
the Legislature follows:
Senate-9 Douglas Democrats 5 Breckipridee
and Republicans
House-40 Douglas 81 Breckenridge, and 10 Re-
pablicans. OF the II Senators holding over from
last year, ii are understood to be Douglas 4
Brecklnridge, and Republicans. Under these
circumstances, there are already numerous Doug
las democrats aspiring for Dr. Gwin's place in the
United States Senate; among them are Gov De-
veney, Gen. Denver, James A. McDougall, and s.
W. Inge.

from the balance of the State have not been re-
