ELECTION RETURNS.
Bepnett,s Comments.

MONTGOMERY, Nov. THE Legislature spent
the entire day il discussing whether this is the
beginning of new session or the continuation of
the old one.
Returns from thirty counties give Democratic
msjorities of l4,j2l and Republican majorities OF
$4,000. The remaining are white counties and
will probably overcome the majorities OF the ne
gro counties. Result is still doubtful.
WILMINGTON, n. G. Nov. 7:-Returns are suf.
icient to show that the State has gone for Grant
by a considerable majority, though the Conserva
tives have made large gains. The Congressional
delegation stands five Republicans to two Demo-
Gratis.
NEW YORK. Nov. THE Herald concludes an
article captioned Fuss and Fary after the Elec-
tionr as follows:
1.-THE Radicals would be more proftably en-
ployed studying the true lesson OF the election.
The people elected Grant because they have con-
fdence that he will secure to she nation the peace
for which be fought on the field of battle. They
gave the State OF New York, 10 the opposition,
and deprived the Republicans Of their two-thirds
majority in the House of Representatives, be-
cause they disspproved of the violent measures
anc extreme policy of Radicalism. The sooner
Union leagues and Republican congressman un-
derstand this fact the better"

The latest patented invention for the pur-
pose of supporting the Republican party by
the expenditure of the money of the State,
was brought to bear in the House yesterday.
Mr.. Wilt was declared by the commanding
general elected as representative in the Gen.
eral Assembly from the Ninth District, parish
of Orleans. Moore, Radical, contested this
election, and the case came up before the
House election committee, who decided that
he utterly failed to prove either the ineigi-
bility of Mr.. Wilt or fraud in the election,
which were his two grounds for demand
ing the reversal of the order of the command
ing general, and that, therefore, Mr.. Wilt
should retain his seat; and now, in the face
of the fact that Moore never had shadow Of
title to the seat he contested, and only
made the claim in the hope that the Radicals
in the House would, as they have done
before, throw justice and right to one side,
and duly recognizing his claim upon them as
member of the R. R. r. party, at once
place at his disposal So per diem, SIS for
postage stamps, rs per cent additional per
diem, and other little items which appertain
to the position of representative of the State
of Louisiana.
The RAIDS, however, for reasons unknown,
refused to grant this little favor to Moore,
but, determined that he shall not utterly
want, resolved to demonstrate to the world
what profitable thing carpet-baggery and
scalawaggery is, they yesterday voted to Moore
per diem and mileage from the first day of the
session to the date of decision upon his case,
which was Tuesday last. Now, isn't this a
nice little game? Is it not delightful thing
to be Radical and get four or five hundred
dollars from the State of Louisiana as a COM
pensation for not getting elected to the Legis-
lature2 1t is almost as good thing as to be
a dead Republican and get $500 for your
widow Ia Frank Sinclair's widow. For fer
tility of invention in running their own party
by the funds of their adversaries, commend
us to carpet-baggers, and for magnificent
ability for devising ways and means for spend
ing other peoples money, give us scalawag,
and the two combined make such noble
