NEW HAMPSHIRE ELECTION TO-
nAY

The State election in New Hampshire
takes place to-day. The Republicans are
sanguine Of success. A correspondent of the
New York Times, writing from Concord IN
der date of March 10, says:
The voters of the State will be called upon
to cast their ballots for three Representatives
in Congress, Governor, Railroad Com
missioner, O Council, a Senate and House Of
Representatives, and the indications are that
there will be Republican triumph, and that
this, the first of the annual elections, will
result in favor Of that party, and thus the
Granite State will furnish the keynote of the
year. There are three congressional dis
tricts, aud the Republican party have pre-
sented new candidates in each as follows:
District One.-Jacob II. Ella.
District Two-Aaron +. Stevens.
District Three.-Jacob Benton.
The Democrats present the following list,
which comprises three men who are thor
oughly imbued with the Democratic 1.-THE true
New Hampshire standard) spirit:
District One.-Daniel Marcy.
District Two.-Edward w. Harrington.
District Three.-Harry Bingham.
The Republicans, in accordance with time.
honored custom, have canvassed the State
Win luG llOol ECsull. NCW
Hampshire, unlike New York, can be easily
canvassed, from the fact that large cities are
not numerous. In the cities and towns in
the State the political as well as the financial
standing of nearly every individual is well
known, and but comparatively short space
of time is needed for a few gentlemen, well
acquainted in the State, to canvass with con.
siderable accuracy. Last year the vote was
35,l37 for Smyth and 3O,s4l for Sinclair, and
the Republicans who canvassed the State
previous to the election made estimates
which came within one hundred votes Of the
figures mentioned, and in consequence there
of the figures given this year may be con-
sdered pretty near correct. The figures as
returned to the Office Of the Republican State
Committee by the clubs were as follows
Walter Hartman, 34,l49; John G. Sinclair,
30,2l9; doubtful, 1857. BY these figures
dividing the doubtful equally, as has been
done in former years, Hartman has 1891
majority. A few towns have not been
counted in, but when they are heard from
the result will not be materially changed, as
there are about two thousand votes on each
side which have not been returned. OF the
Republican congressional nominees, it has
been estimated that Ella will be elected by
700 majority, Stevens by over 1000, and
Benton by about 400 majority.

MIR. SUMNER MAKING A RECORD.

Hon. CHARLES SUMNER yesterday suffered
the most humiliating defeat that has yet be-
fallen any of the leading spirits Of the ma
jority in Congress. THAD. STEVENS has been
endorsed several times, but he is so nimble
Of foot and strong Of hand and arm that he
soon leaps into his seat again, ready for an
other ioust. But Senator SUMNER was yes
terday thrown fat upon his back, and it will
put his backbone to severe test to recover
his perpendicularity. His resolutions asking
Congress to force the South to give every
colored man farm, an education and Sc
cret ballot Us conditions Of restoration were
laid on the table by vote Of SO to 10.
There was something almost ludicrous in
the sad and solemn protest uttered by Hon.
REvERDY JOHNSON against the confscation
Of the lands and houses in the Southern
States to convert them into homesteads for
the freedmen. In the innocence Of his heart
he had supposed that when he voted for the
five-brigadier bill he had gone to the utmost
verge Of radical demands. He had made the
sacrifice and had counselled the South to
submit 10 the measure DeChuse ne DclleNeu
the radicals might invent something harsher
yet, but he was thunderstruck at seeing q
proposition thrust into the Senate that would
render settlement Of our difficulties utterly
impossible. He cannot have been a very
attentive observer or he would have discov.
cred that SUMNER radicalism has fathomless
depths, and that Mr.. SUMMERS great idea
is to plunge ten States into those depths; and
that IL the other States should not come up
TO the SUMNER standard he will, by and by,
plunge them in also, il he can. He would
have discovered that no amount Of yielding
can soften the bloodless hearts Of SUMNER
and STEVENS. Their furnaces are in full
blast, and they can forge shackles for the
South faster than they could be put on and
worn, even il everybody was as willing as q
Barkis. But the good sense Of an over
whelming majority Of the Senate smashed
Mr. SUMNER yesterday, and he will probably
devote himself during the remainder of the
session to the contemplation Of affairs in hi'
Committee on Foreign Relations.

mine and gold, the wheel hubs and other
portions being silver mounted 1t was also
ornamented with the coats of arms of New
