The Election.

Ohio has gone Democratic by de
cided majority-probahly from 10000
to $4,000. The Republicans claim II
out of 90 Congressman, and the Dem
ocrats claim IL In this Congression-
al District the result is yet uncertain,
although Democrats claim the election
of Savage His majority in Butler
county is estimated at not over 2050.
Smith has probably 1000 in W arren,
500 in Clinton and 200 in Fayette,
Clermont not heard from. These fig
ures are only estimates, and may be
changed.
In Indiana the result is uncertain,
but the indications are that the Re
publicans of that State have done bet
ter than those of Ohio.
In Iowa the Republicans are success
ful, carrying the Sta te and the entire
Congressional delegation.
In Nebraska the Republicans also
did splendidly, Notwithstanding the
grasshoppers. The party in power is
usually held responsible for disasters
of every sort, but this rule did no
work in Nebraska.
There was an election in Arkansas
which State sends greeting to tht
Democrats of Ohio, having elected th'
Conservative, or, in other words, th'
rebel candidates.
Upon the whole, the day was not ;
good one for Republicans but Will
the Democrats have gained a goo'
, many Congressman, the next Hons
: will be sufficiently Republican for al
: practical purposes.
