In this calculation we have counted
the Arkansas delegation as standing 2
Republicans to l Democrat. Two can
didates on the Brown ticketin Missou-
ri were elected, and these We have
counted as Republicans. 1t was re-
ported from New York Thursday that
the Democrats had carried the Six
teenth District, previously conceded to
Republicans. This statement has not
been confirmed, and we have accord
ingly accepted as correct the returns
as they were first given, allowing the
Republicans sixteen members and the
Democrats fifteen The complexion of
the Illinois delegation is yet in doubt.
We have conceded in our computation
every district the Democrats have
claimed, though it is an open question
whether they have carried more than
elk districts.
There are five States yet to elect
their Congressional delegations. Geor-
gia holds her election on the LIST, I'd
and Sd of December ; California and
Texas vote ID February F; New Hamp-
shire on the second Tuesday Of March,
and Connecticut the first Monday of
April. Georgia elects 7 members I;
California s. Texas 4; New Hamp-
shire 8 and Connecticut A, in all 81.
Georgia will probably elect three Re
~publicans and four Democrats; Cali
fornia one Republican and two Demo
Gratis ; Texas two Republicans and two
Democrats /; Connecticut three Repub-
licans and one Democrat, and New
Hampshire three Republicans in all,
IL Republicans and 9 Democrats. =
With these additions, the next House
will stand I4I Republicans to l03 Dem
ocrats, being a Republican majority of
thirty-eight. Cincinnati Gazette, of

Whereas, The highest authorities
of Europe and this country condemn
the use of alcohol as q medicine, and
whereas many Of our prominet ply
sicians hold that lager beer, ale,
brandy, vino and whisky, in csses
of sickness, are indispensable supS
porters of vitality, and whereas,
prescribing them for the GONZALES
cent has led the public Uo consider
intoxicating liquors as food, while
IN fact, they are q direct lax upon
vitality, and must tend to turn the
scale against the patient,
Therefore, We deem it our duty 20
declare. by the evil influence of such
a practice upon public opinion, the
profession has greatly paralized the
efforts OF temperance men, and we
do not consider it q safe or advisa-
BILE course to employ physicians
who, regardless Of the evil conse-
qucnces of their example, still per.
sist in prescribing, or using as a

The CAMPAIGN AND TIE ELECTfON-The
campaign which closed yesterday was, up to a
few days Of the eIe;ton, one OF the most quiet
and undemonstrative tor many years. The
fuss and feathers" show and parade Of for
mer years was not nearly so prominent, and in
this county, owing to the peculiar aspect of
the contest, was not INDUCED in at all. The
foci1l emenities Of society were not interrupted
US has been frequently the result in the cam
paigns of the past, especially for the last ten
years, and the voters, general thing seem
ed more inclined to talk horse" or some
ting else, than to discuss politics In this
county there may have been some little au-
mostly between the two wings of the Demo.
cratic party, the "Pollies" aud the Han
ncrS, but this was not very consricuous-not
as marked as was anticipated. Two or three
days before the election, however, the enthu-
-'a~m W. aroused, aud partook something of

new element did not produce any material
change in the feelings of the voters, except at
few places-Smyrna, Odessa and one of the
wards in Wilmington, where disgraceful scenes
ensred yesterday. In this town the colored
voters came to the polls a out ~! clock, in
large Numbers and as they approached the
window on the Republican side, some of the
Democrats, unable longc. to keep their pro
ia lices down, made rush t. clear the Repub
licans from the polls, crying " down with the
nigger," clean 'cm out, etc. 1t was al
outrageous attempt to intimidate the negroes
and take control OF the window, but the Re
publicans held their ground and defed then
with government law, when they caved in anC

after quiet was restored the election was on
