Corrox IN iLLlNoIs.-It IS estimated tina,
the cotton crop of Illinois this year will
amount to 10000 bales. This is of the
upland variety, from seed raised In Ten.
nessee. A correspondent says the quality
il excellent, and the quantity per acre, so
far as known, exceeds that of the cotton j.
growing districts further South. The ,un.
certainty Of procuring seed in the early
part of the season prevented many from
planting; but the result Of this years ex-
pertinent is highly encouraging Illinois

article
ILIIxoIs.-Nothing can more strongly
illustrate how the habit of disappearing
facts ciings to the Chicago Tribune than
the fact that for two days after the election
it insisted that the result in Illinois was
still in doubt The returns received at
Chicago by 10 o'clock on Tuesday night
showed the republicans stood no ghost of
chance to carry the State. There were
democratic gains enough iii the first ten
counties heard from to overcome the
whole republican majority of 1860.
The result in Illinois in ronnd number.
is, that we have elected our State tick
by from somewhere between 10000 and
$4,000 majority that we have elected 9
Of the IA Congressmen, with a chance for
the 10th, by the defeat of Lovejoy, for his
district is still in doubt; and we have q
majority of one in the Senate, and at least
90 in the lower house of the legislature.
Col Dickey is beaten about 100 in This
congressional district, which, in 1860, gave
Lincoln 1000 majority.
New YoRK-Glory everlasting to the
Empire State! There remains no doubt
about the result. Seymour is elected by
nearly 1900 majority. The whole demo-
cratic State ticket is elected. The demo-
Gratis have eighteen Of the thirty one Oon-
gressmen, and they certainly have t,co ma.
jority in the Assembly. Lincoln's majo
rity two years ago was SO, $50,
NEW JERsEr.-Ten thousand democratic
majority Oh the popular vote, and four oil
the FIVE Congressman democrats. Good
enough
WIscoSsIS. The democrats certainly
elect tro of the six Congressman, and per
haps three. These are gains Potter cut
beyond the help of any soldier-vote fraud

ticket is elected, is not certain the republi
cans have majority in the Legislature t.
insure the reelection of the blood letter
Chandler. The indications are that thu
democrats have hco of the SIX Congrers
