TABULATED STATEMENT.
From the New Orleans Times, November 29th.
The returns from the several parishes
of the late election, as made up Nndtab-
ulated by the clerks of the late board OF
~canvassers, and which await action by
whatever authority may be legally au-
thOrized to canvass and return them,
embrace the returns of all the parishes
except the following: Carroll, Iberville.
st. Tammany, TerrebOnne, and st,
James.
From the latter there have been re-
ceiyed only partial returns. In the Other
four parishes named, the votes have not
been counted, owing to the violence and
intimidation employed by the majority
toward the Supervisors, who were driven
from their posts and deprived of then
possession of the boxes, which the law
required to be kept in their custody I'M
til counted.
Excluding these parishes, the total of
all the parishes shows the following ma
jorities: For Greeley and Brown, 9,157
McEnery, 1852; Penn, 1876.
According to the same results, the fol
lowing will exhibit the names of the
members of the Legislature elect, to-
getler with the Senators holding over,
showing the exact condition of that body,
the letters F indicating Fusion and r
the Radical members elect and holding
over.
According to these returns it appears
that the House of Representatives will
stand thus: Fusion, rs; Republican, 26;
vacancies or no returns, 6.
This gives Il clear Fusion majority in
the House, as itnOW stands, of fifty mem
hong Tn "a q co 4hn 1.O+T7TJ,c 4v.o-, +I,o ,,nu
ishes of Carroll, st. James, St. Tam
many, Terrebonne and Iberville are
counted, we may reduce them by six,
crediting the Radicals with all the re-
representatives. from these parishes.
This leaves a full working majority for
the Fusion in the House of forty-fou1
members. In the Senate these parties
will stand as follows: Fusion 20; Radical
10; Fusion majority 8.

HON. T. G.. ANDERsON.-One of the
happy results of the recent satisfactory
election is the triumph of Senator T,
G.. Anderson, a Liberal over the regular
nominees of the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties in St. Landry, Lafayette
and Calcasieu parishes. We view it
outside of partisan feeling ais q proper
compliment due the Senatarfor valuable
services in behalf of his constituents
and of the people of the State at large.
