was most propitious for the election in
Ohio to-day. The candidates to DO cleo.
ted are Secretary of State, two Judges aud
Clerk OF the Supreme Court School
Commissioner, Member Board Of Public
Works, members Of Congress and county
officers. The temperance issue has had
much to do with the campaign, as the
Democratic platform favored license,
while the Republican platform took strong
grounds in favor OF the enforcement OF the
liquor law. This question has no doubt
caused loss Of many votes to the Repub
licaus in the cities; but Og4in in the rural
districts in many counties independent
tickets were in the field, and much
scratching has been the result, which will
greatly delay the getting Of reliable
figures. Last year the iull vote of the
State was not cast, II being estimated that
over $4,000 people did not vote at all.
The active canvass made on the Western
Reserve and in several close districts will,
it is expected, bring out much Of this r9-
serve vote.
CINCINNATI, October 13-The election
passed otl without an exciting event. The
race between Stevenson and Banning for
Congress in the Second District Is close.
In the First District SaylOr is far ahesd.
The indications are that full vote has
been polled. The Republicans are san
guine of the election OF Stevenson in the
Second District. The Democrats are
equally sanguine Of the election OF Ban
ming. Eighty.four wards and precincts
and townships, with as many voting places,
ore 10 be heard from in Hamilton county.
The press has combined to collect the re.
turns from all these to night.

large vote was polled and the indications
that Parsons, the Republican candidate
for Congress is defeated by from 1000 10
{, 500 majority.
CINcNNATI, October 13.-OGlcial re-
turns from seven city and two country
precincts indicate that much scratching
has been done and irregular gains, Say

year 90 in three precincts, and Stevenson
in Clifton loses 20; gains 200 In the 18th
Ward; loses 140 in the 10Th Ward; gains
"a in the country townships. The Lib.
eral Republican vote Of last year seems to
return TO the Democrats in some wards,
and TO the Republicans in others.

cede the election OF Hurd, Democrat, to

trict, runs lar ahead Of bis ticket. Only
few returns are in from the Second Dis.
trict, but they show Banning to be run.
ming behind and Stevenson much ahead
of his ticket. The race in the Second
District will be exceedingly close be-
tween ESteVenson and Banning. The
Democratic county ticket will probably
be elected by several thousand, except
in case Of County Commissioner. Indi-
cations from the returns in ore that the
Democratic majority on the Safe tiCke
in the county will be 1000 to 5000.
COLUMBUS, October 13.-Garfield, Re-
publican, in the Ninteenth District, and
Van Voorhees,, Republican, in the Fif.
teenth District, are no doubt elected to
Congress. II the partial returns from
the Ninth and Tenth Districts can
be taken as a fair index Of what the full
returns will be, both Robinson and Chas.
Foster are defeated for Congress,

OF State have been received from 26l
townships and wards, giving net Demo.

in 1878. Atthis rate the Democratic ma.
orlty will be $4,000. But few returns
have been received upon the remainder oI

ticket. The indications are that the Dem.
ocrats have carried the doubtful Districts,

Toledo and nine precincts in Lucas coun.
ty give Wifod zoo majority. Pratt, Re,
publican, for Congress, runs behind his
