jority Douglas 40. These returns all recev
ed by telegraph from more than one hundred different
dspa ches, aud mistakes have probably occurred.
The official count will be required to determine the re-
suit. Tie contest is between Lincoln and Douglas with
the chances in the favor OF the former As near as can
be ascerained, the Legislature stands as follows -

THE RESULT IN VIRGINIA.-Mr Bell has probably
carried the State by very small majority over Mr..
Breckenridge. Our Democratic friends seem to be very
much downcast at this result and well they may, for
il is the last nail in the coffin OF modern Democracy
They have apparent enjoyment in saying that there
ia large majority of the Democratic vote against Mr.
Bell including the cast for Ar Douglas but then they
forget that they have and over again read Mr. Doug
las and his friends out Of the Democratic family, and de-
nonnced them as aliens and disorginizers They wore
iti true, mostly Democrats but they would have voted
for Mr.. Bell had Mr. Douglas been out Of the way and
hence we think are ustibe in assuming that large
majority of the people Of Virginia preferred Bell TO
Breckenridge. No matter what they call themselves
they we're in favor Of principle aud opposed to John
c. Breckenridge and the agaOrs and dsOrganizers who
supported him-Abingdoa VrgiHidn.

Revolution of 1916 led TO the French Revolution of

the part Of one section Of the Union towards
the other is certainly less bitter intense than that

The counties of King and Queen and Clay have also
been heard from officially, but from the former only the
Breckenridge vote was returned and from the other only
the Bell vote The reported majority for Breckenridge
in King and Queen 255 and for Bell in Clay 81, in
Webster 10, and in Wyoming 81. Net majority for
Breckenridge in these four counties 1877 which deduct
from 446, leaves Bells majority in the State $40 if the
reported msores are correct and we have no reason
to question their accuracy.
