must orderly that has ever been held. The ar
rangements for preserving the peace were well
carried out. About $50 votes were pocd by the

many had anticipated Brownlow has majority
in this city of GA. In the precinct that he resides
in, 5i4 votes were thrown, all but one of which
were for him.
The dispatches received thus far indicate that
Brownlow has majority in every district and
county in the state.
Greenyille, the home of President johnson, gives
Brownow majority of 80
Memphis gives Brownlow majority of 2202,
and Num-, Republican, is elected to Congress
from that district with three Republican members
of the legislature.
The dispatches and advices received by Gov

be Radical by large majority, thus insuring the
election of u. s. Senator in place of Patterson.
Horace Maynard is elected TO Congress from
the Second District.
The Governor claims that the Republicans have
elected the eight Congressman that he will have
majority of 10000 in the State and at least 90
