10th, foot up: Combs, 30,407, McClarby (B.)

returns are in, these figures will be about
doubled. There are nearly sixty counties
yet to hear from.
AnKANsAs.-ln this State the Breckinridre
Democrats were overcome. The Bell and
Douglas forces combined in Arkansas. The
majority for r. NJ. johnson over Henry NJ.
Rector, for Governor, it is thought, is not
less than 10000. Hindman is returned to
Congress from the upper district by pro
poItionaIly liberal majority over Cyphert,
"disorganizer," as the Breckenridge papers
termed him. Nothing is yet heard from the
lower Congressional district, in which three
candidates were run, one of whom was for
Douglas; the other two for breckenridge.
MIssouRI-oSnAieient returns are received
to determine what eaplidates are elected to
Congress. James S. Rollins, Bell and Ever
EFT candidate, in the Secod9 District has
about 600 majority over Henderson, Douglas
Democratic candidate. In the Third Dist,
Clark; in the Fourth, Norton; in the Fifth,
Reid; in the Sixth, NOEL, and in the Seventh,
non-committai Douglas men
are elected. They were generally supported
also by the Breckinridge wing. and mostly
elected by decided majorites G. F. jackson,

For any true and sincere Douglas Democrat
to vote for solitary man as an elector, who,
