Il STATE ELECTION

The authenticated returns fro,
the various parishes have not "
come in, but information that it
reliable is sent to the city from da
to day. !.
We publish the parishes belo'
and give all the news as yet asce'
tanned about them, and this to
great extent. is necessarily conject
ural:
Ascension-This parish is elaine
to have gone Republican. In 1877
it rolled up 923 majority for Ora
hem over Jumel, and on Monda;
last elected it's full parish ticket ant
turned over q majority Of 1000 TO
the Republican National and Stat
ticket.
Assumption-The manipulation
against the free and full exercise o
popular rights have so far succeed
cd as to overcome a majority Of 81;
cast for Graham in 1870. The re
ports from this parish are that il
has gone Democratic by about 200
Avoyelles-In 1870 this parish
came in with 293 ahead. This yea,
it has not only been lost to the Re.
publican party, but is claimed by
a large majority for the Liberals.
Baton Rouge, East-It is mani.
fest that the complaints from this
parish of the denial Of. registration
to 1900 voters were founded on fact
In 1870 it. cast 244O for Graham,
Jumel receiving 96s; giving Ora
ham 1882 majority. Republican
interest has certainly not tagged
during the last two years, nor has
the number of them decreased to
any appreciable extent. But on the
contrary the Presidential and gen.
eral election Of State officers has
evoked an unusual interest in the
election Of Monday last, and yet
East Baton Rouge is set down as
having $50 in favor Of the Demo-
cracy. A fearful commentary this
on the freedom of our institutions.
Baton Rouge, West has sustained
its reputation, and from q majority
of 428 for Graham, it has cast 500
year for the Republican party,
electing also it's representatives to
The Legislature:
Bienville - When East Baton
Rouge, Avoyelles and Assumption
are lost to us, it is no wonder that
parish which gave Jumel 745
IN 1870 should go largely Demo-
cratic in 1872. No particulars, how
aver, from Bienville.
Bossier-From 100 Republican
majority cast in 1870, Bossier has
oeen flched from US by over 300
'otcs this year.
Caddo has been stolen openly
md outrageously by all accounts.
Republican parish, and going
in 1870, and increasing
n her Republicanism ever since,
has not only been lost to our party,
'ut through the outrages reported
rs having occurred on Monday has
given a majority to the enemy.
Calcasieu, Republicans had moth
to hope from. Dispatches give
800 to the Liberal Democracy and
hey are doubtless not far from the
ruth.
Caldwell-There are meagre re-
urns from. In 1870, however, the
majority for Jumel was 80. This
ear about 200 for the Liberals.
Cameron cast 22o majority for
in 1870, and this year it
$ reported to have gone 135 for the
Carroll came in with the hand
ONE majority Of 931 in 1870, and
rue to her record she has again
oiled up 1000 for the Republican
'arty.
Catahoula-Out of a vote of 747,
'umel obtained a majority Of III in
$40, how much it has gone to the
liberals this year is not yet known.
Claiborne-N is also not sur
to learn has given the
ticket National and State q
Majority of over three hundred.
Concordia has again sustained
or reputation and not only carried
er parish ticket but turned over
mother 1900 majority to the Re-
ublican party. I,
