WILMiYoToN, Nov. 1.-The returns now

Congress. The delegation stands five Re

gain of one. The official count increases the
Republican majority of New Hanover county,
including Wilmington, TO 1e7, being Re
publican gain of 245.

| ceed those cast for the State ticket.
Twenty three counties total gains, 2,602;
totol losses, II net gains, 1881. Add this
| to the majority in October, aud it makes
Grants majority about 6,300, if the thirty
counties yet to bo heard from give just the
same majorites they did last month. The
| largest counties are reported, but it will not

! 5000.

vote in this State has increased to a surpris-
ing extent, and Seymour's majority will not

CALIFORNIA.
BAN FRkYcIsCo, Nov. e.-The Board of
Supervisors have ordered recount of the
city vote, as some ballots in possession of
the county clerk bear evidence of having
been tampered with. An immense sum OF
money is at stake on the result of the vote
in the city and State. 1t is probable that a
recount will be made 10 other localities.
Returns from Oregon give Grant over 500
majority, with nine counties to hear from.
The Chicago Republican of Saturday Gays:
The table We print elsewhere gives majori-
ties, reported and official (some of them
only estimated), from eighty.two counties
in Illinois. The Republican majority in
these counties is 10000. The remaining
twenty counties gave Logan 3,2l0 in 1866.
The majority for Gen. Grant in Illinois will
not be less than $4,000. In 1866 Logan's
majority for Congressman at.Large was 55,-
987, obtained under what were considered
unusual favorable circumstances, but the
vote of last Tuesday shows that $1,000 is
just about the legitimate Republican majo-
rity in the Sucker State. Only Niassachu-
setts can exceed hisglorious preponderance
Of Republicans.
