the vote for Governor and other state
officers. They will report the following
figures to the Legislature; James Il. Eng

Of 20, But manifest error in Somers
reduces this majority two votes, while
returns from Cheshire will, il
Is believed, when fully investigated, add
10 Jewel's vote, which will
then be the same as Englishs. OF the /
votes, the Legislature will |
probably count three and perhaps six for
English. There is a statement, however, /
hat the Fourth ward of New Haven re-
urned 100 and Enfield "a too many votes /
or English, These statements will go to !
he Legislature, and if the mistakes are /
proved, Jewell will be declared Governor
~ about 90 majority. The majority for
Tyler, Lieutenant Governor, is 1872. and .
hat ofNichols, Treasurer, 256. The can
'assers are unable to state the vote on
