GEORGIA.

g AUGUSTA Nov. 3-The election did not elicit
particle of excitement in, this city. About
900 votes were polled, nearly all for Alexander
II Stephens. Many negroes voted for him. In
Hancock county the negroes nominated col
ored man named Hernison, in opposition to
him, but he received very few votes. All the
prominent Republicans in the eighth congress
sional district endorsed Stephens, who may
really be considered elected without op posi-
ton.
Returns from the::1st, I'd and Sd districts in
dictate the election of Hartridge, Smith and
Cooke, Democrats. The summing up of re-
turns from all portions of Georgia far as receiv-
ed shows no doubt that the election will give an
undivided Democratic delegation. There have
been no disturbances.
SAVANNAH, Nov. 3.-Chatham county gives

HIS'N.
Defeat.

The Republican defeat yesterday extended
well along the entire line. In the East it was
as complete as it could well be short of an
entire route. A Democratic Congress, a
Democratic Governor and six Democratic
congressman in Massachusetts, Tammany
again enthroned in New York city and state,
New Jersey again out of our list, Maryland
and Virginia rolling up Democratic MAORI
ties by thousands, constitute about as disa-
greeable and disheartening series of facts as
can be conceived from our stand point. In
deed, since those June days of 1854 when our
exhausted armies were hurled back from
Richmond, Republican newspaper has not
been called to present its readers so forbid
ding intelligence.
In the West the few returns received indi-
cate that the Republicans have done nearly
as well as they lad any reason to expect.
At this hour it is impossible to give even
an approximate estimate of the relative
strength of the two parties in the next Con-
gress. but it is safe to conclude that the Dem
ocrats will have a majority not far from

Second Despatch.

Returns from Congressional districts thus far
are meagre, but indicate that Walker in the Sd,
Tucker in the 9th, Harris n7 the 18th, Hunter in
the 9Th, and Terry in the 9th. all Conservatives
are undoubtedly elected. Walkers majority
IN inc 50 distfct VIII e run over zoo and Hunt
Independent, will reach about 1000. IT is more
than probable that Sener, Republican, is re-
elected over Douglass in the LIST district. The
I'd district is doubtful, with the probabilities in
favor Of John Goode, Jr., Conservative, over
Morton, colored Independent. Stowell, rep, is
reelected in the 4th district. In the 9Th the
contest is close, but favorable to the reelection
of Thomas rep. The election in Richmond was
the most orderly ever known.

New YORK, Nov. "a Washington des-

received the following from Marshal Packard

Persons who In Iuost things prompt to obey the

agent that can be selected for this purpose is Hos

which is besides, the chosen remedy of the American
