New Hampshire Election - The
Immense Change Favorable to the
Democracy.
The vote in New Hampshire, des
pite the absence of thousands, sup.
posed, by US in the West, to be in the
army, is the largest ever thrown in
the State. 1t stands about as follows
for Governor:
Eastman, (Democrat,). )...........,.S .S2 $50
Gilmore, lAbulition, ............ % 300
Hartman, Independently ........ 5000
Total .'''''''''....... sc, 900
The Democracy poll within $40
votes of as many as the A Abolitionists
and Independent together. AT the
Presidential election in 1860 the vote
stood:
Lincoln "'''''''''''''' .37 $40
Douglas, ''..'''..'.'''... .S8l
Breckinrdge .................. 2,ll2
Bell -. .,.,'....,........ All
Total '"'.'''.'......... ..65 81 3
Llncoln's majority over aIl.."... 9,ll5
= The Democratic vote has increased
nearly 5000 since 1860. The Aboli
tion vote has fallen off, including the
Independent strength, about that
amount. Nobody appears to have
gone TO the war. In the Western
States we see the cbasm produced by
the volunteers in the small vote. Not
so in New Hampshire. Her quota in
the field, like all the New England
States, must be very small, or she
could not throw a larger vote than
she did in the Presidential election
OF 1860.
According 20 the returns, one man
in every SiT of those who have hith
etto voted against the Democracy, has
now changed, and recorded his vote
in their favor, This is very large
change for a New England commu.
nifty: but it does not begin to equal
the change in the West, where it
would be one to every t0a or &cs.
The Democracy has for the first
time since 1852 elected a Congress
man in New Hampshire.
