ANA GONE DEMOCRATlC.---MAR
LAND CERTAIN FOR MCCLELLAN.
The Democratic Press publishes the con-
tents of letter received from the East ola
Overland Mail, giving the results Of the late
local elections in the States of Connecticut
and Delaware. The telegraph, being entire
y under Abolition control made no reference
TO these elections, and the people have been
kept in ignorance Of the result. The news
was disastrous to the Administration, and
hen"e IT WAS suppressed. The letter gives
the Democratic gains in SO towns in Com
nsc,' ut-giving the name Of each place
and shows a gain on the vote of last spring,
OF 2,769. The Abolilionisls gained in but
two lowns-snd but A votes.
The New York World in speaking of the
election in Connecticut, says: There are 1862
towns in Connecticut, and if the Democratic
gain in thiry-six of them is over 27O0, it
follows that the gain in the whole State
must be four times as great, or fully 10000
votes. b. This does not include the cities of
New Haven and Hartford, in which the dem.
ocratc gain will be very heavy. The State
went Republican last Spring by about 5000
majority; but if the vote just taken holds
good in next November, the Nutmeg State
is sure for Mcclellan by 1000 majority
But democrats from that State tell US that
10000 is their lowest figure for Little Mac" "
Delaware held local elections on the 4h
OF October, and gloriously redeemed herself.
In 1868 the State went Union by 5000 ma.
jority-a Democratic gain of over 9O0O.-
Such a tremendous revolution in so short a
time was never known. We have the full
returns from Delaware. In Kent county the
Admin istration candidate got but 32 votes,
while the Democratic candidate got 9O3-
New Castle county, which gave an Admins
tration majority of 432 in 1868. now gives a
democratic majority OF SO votes.
Maryland is going overwhelmingly for
Little Mac. Baltimore correspondent Of
the Philadelphia Age under date OF October
9th, says: In spite of the efforts that have
been made to abotionize the State-in spite
of the importation by thousands of Yankee
voters-in spite of the forced imposition of
the illegal test oath, the greatest outrage
ever perpetrated on free reople-in spite
ofthe suppression of every democratic news
paper in the State, one after another, and in
spite of the presence of armed soldiery at the
polls, the democrats of Maryland will vote a,
the ensuing Presidential election.
Maryland is emphalicalIv a Democratic
State. Under any circumstances Lincoln
cannot poll over 40, 600 votes in the State,
while there are 10000 Democratic voters,
who have lived all their lives in the State,
and who will vote for Mcclellan unless pre-
vented by actual violence.
In the above connection is published a
paragraph from the MarysviIle Express, Of
the LIST of October, which shows that Indi
ana went Democratic at the late election
and is sound to the core:
INDIANA DEMocRATIC.-A private dispatch
was Received in Carson City. few days since
from reliable source in Indiana, stating
that the Democracy had carried the State
by over twenty thousand majority. A gen
tleman from Carson gives us the following
information concerning This dispatch. lie
says that prominent citizen of Carson pro-
posed to telegraph to his brother in Indiana
for the purpose Of ascer,a aiming the true vote
OF that State, which he did. and that the
answer received was to the effect that "Inli-
ana had gone Democratic BY over twenty
thousand majority" All hail, Indiana
All this is certainly glorious news to the
Democracy OF California. 1t tells us how
The revolution against Lincoln is sweeping
like whirIwind through the North. 1t in
spires the democracy of this coast to fghr
the last few days of the campaign with more
vigor than ever, for brilliant victory is sure
| 10 crown our efforts on the 9th of November
KENrucky.--One Of the most significant
signs Of the determination of the people to
have 4 change in the national administration
as We II as the strongest evidence that Mr.
Lincoln has utterly failed to win public ron
fidence, is the unanimity of the people OF
Kenturky in their support of Mcclellan
The political rvalies and animosities of a
quarter century are forgotten and sunk out
of sight in the presence Of the vital issues in
volved in the election. Kentucky trusted
