COLUMBIA, Wednesday, Oct. l6-Midnight.
The State election. has undoubtedly passed
Of with remarkable quiet, and no riot Of any
kind Is reported from any part of the State.
Not more than two-thlrds Of the white vote
has been cast, and the negroes hive scratched
their tickets to a surprising extent. Many
col0red meR have voted for the Boilers Ito
ket, far more than was expected. Up to this
time there have been received no authentic
returns from any Of the wards Ia this city.
The count will not be flushed until daybreak.
In Ward 8 the total vote Ia 400, with a proba-
bic majority for Moses of 100. In Ward 2 the
total vote Is $50, and the majority for Noses
is estimated at a rough guess BY a Moseyite
manager at $50. The vote Of the city will be
between 1000 and 24OO, which Isl very full
vote. Nudge Melton and Jillson ruu consider
ably ahead OF their ticket.
A telegram to the Boilers Central Commit
tee claims York County by 500 majority, ana
they claim that they have carried Union
County BY 100 or $50. General William b. Wal
lace, the Democratic candidate for the Legls'
lsture. runs at the head Of the county ticket,
and has called out a full white vote.
The Radical headquarters here are chock
full of partisan kilograms from all parts of the
State. and agree that Moses is elected by q
tremendous majority. The Radicals, however,
unwiningly admit that Governor B. F. Perry is
elected to Congress in the Fourth District.
Carter, the bogus government agent, was
releasedto-dsy upon his own recoenizanee, IN
the sum of $500. QUI VIvE.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE NEws1
CoLusBIA, Wednesday Night, October 6.
Up to this hour, (ten P. NJ a large num-
Der ofteiegrams have been received at the
headquarters of the Republican State central
committee. These report that the election In
all parts Of the State has been very quiet and
orderly. In Rlcnlsnd County Moses Is far
ahead. In, the lower part of the county Tom
llnson did not receive five per cent. Of the
entire vote. There was much scratching OF
tickets for county officers.
In the Gadsden precinct, out OF 662 votes,
Tomlinson received only Z. In this city the
vote was more evenly divided between the
rival Radicals. Louis &. johnson, the Boilers
candidate for congressman at large, has run
largely ahead Of his ticket, rather on account
of the TACT that he has many personal friends
here, than on account of his " claims upon
the public. A heavy vote has been polled, but
the tickets have been 30 scratched that
the result cannot be definitely known for
some hours. The news from the up.country,
where the boilers were expected TO display
their full force, ia of the most favorable char
scter for the Moses ticket. At Winnsboro',
Fairfield County, the vote was 700 for Moses
and $50 for Tomlinson. In Aiken the vote
was two to one In favor of Moses,
the Democratic vote being divided. In
Chester County, which the Boilers expected
to. carry, Moses has received two-thlrds
of the vote, and but few Democrats went to
the polls. In Anderson County Tomlinson ls
ahead on the State ticket, but the Regular
Radical county ticket is elected. At Newberry
C. a., Noses has 1900 majority. In the whole
county in 1870 the Radical majority was only
1900. Even In Greenville County, the Boiling
Gibraltar, the Regulars believe that they hold
the winning hand. Dispatches from Beaufort
report that the Regulars have been triumphant
at every point in the lew country. Fairfield
gives Noses q heavy majority. SALUDA.
