The Recent Elections-Large Demo-
cratic Gains.
PENNSYLVANIA PROBABLY GONE DEMOCRATIC

|
! As we announced last week, .he first
reports of the State Elections in Penns,l-
vania, Ohio, and Indiana. would come by
the LINCOLN telegraph, and would rroha-
bly, be falsehoods We were right, for the
more the returns come 10, the more Dem
ocratic gains we receive. In Penn-yva-
MIA the demo cracy have made a gain Of
! 13 600 in foI.v-seyen counties, leaving
twenty five 10 hear from and their ma.
jor;ty on the home vote will reach from
5 900 to S 900 The democratic gains in
Ohio are immense. The republican mas
jority on the home vote last year wa.
$4,000; this year it is less than % 900 !.
The democratic gain ia Hamilton county
alone is 5000 The republicans have car
red Indiana by what majority is not
vet sscer,aiued but ,hsir victory was
achieved by tie perpetraton Of frauds of
tie most outrageous character, as may
readily lie perceived from the fact that the
little city of Indianapolis shows an Off
cisl abolition majority of 6 257. We
have lost few congressman iE these elec
,ions as was TO have cen expected on a
retrospec, Of the clean sweep made bv tie
democracy two year ago; but the repu5-
lirans have not carried all tha, ,hey re-

ana which were asserted to have gone Alb

in favor Of the democratic candidates.

The chairman Of the democ. attic state
central committee claims from the returns

political authorities are in doubt about

The most enormous fraud. that were
ever heard Of 10 the world were perre'ra,

been conducted, and knowing that it viii

confidence of carrying it in November.
Later and better news-ihe soldiers
vote the democratic ticket;
Harrisburg, Oct IA
From information received here this
morning, II is absolutely impossible TO de.
termine how the state hs. gone until ,he
reception Of the official returns Both
parties claim small maj ajori,ies; but unex.
pected results in heavy northern union
counte. render i, scarcely possible to ov'
ercome the large democratic gains II
either case it is admitted that the majority
will be small, and can onI be determined
by the official vote. The recording Of the
soldiers votes is necessarily verv SLOW
being distributed among various compau.
les, and, from the manner in which they
aprear in the tally papers, i. is impossible
TO make All aggregate until the record j;
more complete.
