THE NORTH CAROLINA ELECTION. From the
special despatch we publish in another part Of
to-day's issue it is apparent that Caldwell, the
republican candidate for Governor, has been
elected over Merrimon, the democratic nomi-
nee, by majority of from one to two thousand.
The democrats, however, claim victory also.
By the latest returns they have carried five
out Of the eight Congressional districts. They
will have majorities in both branches Of the
Legislature and eighteen majority on joint
ballot, thus securing the election OF q democrat
to the United States Senate in place of the re-
publican incumbent, Senator Pool The
official returns have been received from fifty
four counties

Tn DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WoEKs-A
good report comes to-day from the Depart
ment of Public Works. The receipts from
water rents last month show On increase of
thirty thousand dollars over July of last year.
The receipts for seven months in 1872 ending
on August 1, are nearly one hundred thousand
dollars in advance of the receipts for the cor
responding period in 1871. On July 81 the
receipts for the single day were the largest ever
known in the department, reaching one hun
bred and twenty-five thousand dollars, or
twenty-six thousand higher than any previous
day. With all this increase of business the
returns of the department show that the ex-
pense of collecting the water rents is now six
thousand dollars month, or seventy-two
Thousand dollars year, less than 1T was last
year. This is substantial reform.

SPOTTED TAIL AND His BAND, who are in
this city, yesterday went through the usual
process for delegation Indians-namely, being
fed and lodged in good hotels and shown
round the industrial wonders of the metropo-
lis. In the evening they attended church and
listened to number Of philanthropic
Poor-Lo speeches. They returned the
compliment in short, 'good Indian adj
dresses. They wanted money, Spotted Tail
remarked for the building of churches and
Sunday schools. In recognition of this laud-
able desire goodly collection was taken up,
with which the Brule Sioux will seek the
Spirit on their return to the Plains. What
spirit it would at present be unsafe to say.

up by the republicans, and is running against
J. N. Camden, the democratic nominee The
State ticket Is to be voted for also on the same
day, and three members of Congress. In 1871
the State gave democratic majority of asst.
Should the coming election sustain the new
constitution, which is claimed to be very lib
eral in Its provisions there will be little doubt
of the election of the five democratic Presden-
tial electors to be chosen in November. In
case the new constitution is defeated there
will be an election of State officers in October.
An active canvass is progressing. both parties
hboring zealously for the advantage in this
preliminary struggle, which will pretty clearly
indicate the complexion of the State in the
general Presidential engagement. Each party
appears confident of victory; but both are so
thoroughly divided on the questions involved
in the proposed constitutional changes that the
result is extremely doubtful W NH
