We give below the returns as far as re-
ceived. of the elections held on Tuesday last.
NEW YORK.
The estimated majority in New York for
Gov. Fenton, Republican, over Mr.. Hoffman,
Copperhead, is 13 900. The whole vote of the
State is about 10000. The vote of New
York City is as follows: Fenton 33,46S.
Hoffman s79,s23. Fenton's majority In the
State in 1854, was s,293.
New York City went very largely for Mr.
Hoffman, but there were heavy Republican
gains in the Western part of the State Ihere
were Republican gains even in Auburn, Mr.
Stewards home.
In the Congressional delegation there are
gains for both sides, but the result is the
same as in the last Congress
The New York Times, whose Editor, MIR.
RAYMOND, figured so extensively in the Phil
adelphia Convention, thus announces the re-
suit:
"The State of New York has followed
New England, Pennsylvania and the Great
West in reaffirming her Republican Union
verdict of 1864, and by an increased agsre-
gate popular majority, after overcoming ,torty-
screen thousand Democratic naa5ofatg cast IN thas
CStv. The majority for Gov. Fenton can
scarcely fall short of ten thousand, and may
reach fifteen thousand. The Congressional
delegation remains, as in the present Con
gress, nineteen Union to eleven Democratic
members. The Assembly will be Union, as

Thus saith Raymond, the author of the
Philadelphia Address, and the leader OF the
