The Pony Express arrived at Fort

old. Yesterday, in addition to our
regular dispatches, which indicate
immense Republican gains all over
the state, 80 much 30 that politicians
are surprised-we received the fol.
lowing special telegram giving later
returns:

About 80, 900 votes ara retnrned.---

WILLIAM RABE.
Secretary State Central Committee.
This news is not surprising. Our
dispatches and private letters for two
weeks have predicted heavy Repub-
lican gains, and in few instances
a plurality for Lincoln in the state.
Tho counties to DO heard from arc
probably the Northern and Southern
coast counties, including Mendocino
Klamath. Humboldt, Del Norte,
Monterey, Santa Barbara, San Luis
Obispo, San Bernardino, and a few
others. The Fremont vote was very
heavy in the Southern coast counties
and light in the others. From the
tenor OF the dispatches it is eviden,
that political revolution has swep'
over the state, ana the effect of i
may be seen in the vote Of Sar

for Governor: Republican. 3,s27

at the polls. This result shows tina
parties have been completely broker

we are not without hope that Lincol'
has carried the state, although th'
regular dispatch contradicts on

side, il the next news confirms tn
anticipated triumph on the Pacific
At all events, another year is al

Under this head the Hancock
C0nf'er compares or contrasts, the
Breckinridge vote in several North
ern states, with the aggregate vote OF
the state, and then says: "This
shows exactly, the popularity of the
platform which the majority OF the
Committee on Resolutions at the
Charleston Convention wished the
party to adopt"
