EIETInN NEWs


The returns come in slowly. We
have not had time veto hear from cor
in the far out counties, of
the railroads and out of reach Of the tel
egraph lines. We ought, however, to
have heard from several counties not
yet reported, s1ch as Barbour, Ran
dolph, Tucker, Hardy, peasants, Gil
mer, DC. We have yet also to hear
frow the Big Kanawha region.
By last nights mails We learn that
Richie county, the slittle GEM as she
Is appropriately called, has given 4OT
majority for the Amendment. At the
Presidential election in 1864 the vote
stood, Lincoln 6TS, Mcclellan ZIG. Four
hundred and seven is big majority in
an aggregate of $50 votes.
Morgan county has given ri, ont of
a total Of go votes, Tor the Amendment.
Her vote for Mr.. Lincoln was 265-Mc-
Clellan none.
The majority in the townships heard
from thus far in Preston, is 594. The
vote in the county in 1854 stood, Lin
colin l ,6I2;; Mcclellan 564.
Cannot some friend in the antiquated
county of Brooke send Us down the Of
| fetal returns from that dioceseP We are
told that she has given a majority for,
instead of against the amendment: FER
contra, we have already accorded her
on the other side by six majority How
is it?
| Captain AIaulsby, OF Fairmont. writes
us last evening that the whole vote in
Marion county is 1906. OF this llS5
were given for the Amendment, and al
aSainst-the majority for ratification
being 354. These figures are seIni-othcial
l-CaptAin Maulsby being clerk of the
board OF Supervisors The majority Is
I not quite so large as reported yesterday
morning, but is a very good one-more
I than an offset against the adverse ma
JOTity in this county.
/ Our friend Boyd, of the Pedette, IS
elected County Superintendent OF
Schools, in Marion county by majori-

We have the following letter from
! TYLER in refence to the election down in
that county:
MIDDLETowS, Tyler Co., W. Va,
May ., 1866. J
Editors IntcIeeneer:
This county has given a majority of
II for the Amendment, and we have
elected out-and-out Union Warren over
/ Mccormick, who ran on both sides
for County Superintendent for Free
/ Schools.
/ have never known such bare-faced
/ lying done to carry an election as has
] been done By the rebels and those act
\ ing with them to defeat the Amends
/ ment. They represented everywhere
/ that the object of the Amendment was
/ to give the negroes the right to vote
aud to put them upon an equality
with the 1hites; and the only wonder
is that they did not carry the county.
They have done the worst thing they
could do here; they have deceived
1 many voters, and their false words will
recoil on their, and their treachery and
hypocricy will be fully understood in
the future. Their candidate for School
Superintendent represented himself in
one section of the county as for the
! Amendment, and run on the "Conser-
vntive7 ticket as the Rebels candidate
I in other parts OF the county.
/ Gen. Militia GENERALLY Boyers was
/ elected in this township Supervisor.
/ He run on both sides of the amend
ment question, and was voted for by
ALL the REBELS, and he is the only
man that has ever publicly proclaimed
negro suffrage, SO you can see that there
is no objection on the part of the so
called conservatives TO a man who is
| for negro suffrage, just SO he is willing
/ to assist them in their destructive pur-
/ poses.
The rebels to-day would confer upon
! the blacks universal suffrage, if they be-
I Iieved they would vote the so-called
conservative ticket.
Yours, &c, j. NJ
