SAN Francisco, September 3, 1867.
California sends greeting to all Con-
sentative citizens at the East, having
elected Henry H. Haight, Governor, by
many thousand MISUNDERSTANDING in
the footsteps of Connecticut, and i'm
proving upon her example. The Leg
islature is Democratic, and The State is
thoroughly redeemed. Two Congress
men are elected, and the third is be-
lieved to be. Let Ohio JOIN the col
umn. JOSEPH P. HoGE, Chairman.
SAN FRANCISCO, September 5.-The
counting of the votes of San Francisco
is not vet concluded. 1t is thought
Haight will have one thousand major
ity. McCopping, Democratic candidate
for Mayor is probably elected, and the
majority of ting Democratic legislative
ticket also. Returns from the interior
show reduced Union uIajorities.
The Legislative ticket i'll San Fran
cisco and Sacramento is probably elect
ed. 1t is thought this defeats the re-
election of Senator CONFESS. 1t is I'M
certain if the Union majority is retained
in the Legislature. If lost, Governor
Low is expected TO call an extra session
of the present Legislature to rat:fy the
Constitutional Amendment.
Tue total vote of San Francisco Is
I, 3fs5. about 600U less than the register
ed vote. Some thousand Union votes
were lost through apathy, resulting
from disgust at the abuses in the party
IL is impossible 10 give reliable estl'
mates of the general result
SAN FRANCISC, September Further
returns from the interior are more IA
vorable to Haight, and render his cleo
ton tolerably certain. Nothing more
is known of the fate of the general
Union ticket though it is believed to
he ahead. Phelps, Union candidate for
Congressman in the San Francisco dis
trict, is probably defeated. The Union
local tickets are generally ahead IN the
counties formerly Union. 80 far as
known. the vote for Gay, independent
Onion. is very small, but helped the
general ticket. IL is the opinion OF
Union men that if Bidwell had been
nominated instead of GOrham, the state
would have gone 10000 Union, and that
the martial defeat is altogether owing
to dissatisfaction i'll the Union ranks.
A great effort will be made TO CONSOLE
date the Union strength for q victory at
the judicial election next month, but
the Democrats claim the State prospect
i've of Union discussions, although they
admit they could have done little
against Bidwell.
SAN FRANCISCO, September.-San
Francisco gives Haight majority OF
1855. To the surprise of everybody,
every ward but one is Democratic. The
whole Democratic county and municipal
ticket except two OF three are elected,
The returns from twenty-siX counties
show Haight to be over five thousand
ahead. There is scarcely possibility
that Gorham can catch up. The Even
ing Bulletin, which opposed Gorham.
saws Haight's fuccess is due wholly to
the determination of the masses OF the
Union party to rebuke an immoral sys-
TEN of party management, and break
down the corrupt combination OF
schemers and demagagues which threat
ened to ALLEVIATE honorable men, and
impose extra burdens on the tax payers
for the benefit of spectators.
Later ANA fuller returns from the
most pOpulOus counties, including the
strongh0ldS, continue to swell lfaights
majority, and make the northern Con
gressmen uncertain.
