teen thousand.
A dispatch from Towanda this morn
ing claims the election Ct Joseph Pow.
elf, Democrat, in the 18th district. an
additional Republican loss. Kelly and
O'Neil, Republicans, and Randall, Dem !
ocrat, are elected to Congress. The 1st
and 34th districts are close and stilf In
doubt. In Berks county the Democratic
majority is estimated at $500.
PrrrsBttRau, November 4.-Returns
from the 23d congressional district upl
to this time give Cochran, Democrat,
eight majority. Wallace, Republican,
is elected in the oath district.
The official returns Of yesterday 8
election in Allegheny county appears
still more disastrous to the Republican
interests as fuller returns are received.
Both districts OF this county elect Dem
ocratic Congressman, while the delega'
ton to the State Assembly stand eleven
Democrats to six Republicans, with the
entire county ticket almost certainly
elected In the western part of this
State the latest returns indicate Demo-
cratic victories in the 17th, 18th, goth,
21st, 22d, 23d, 25th, 26th and 9th Con-
gressional districts. In five OF the
western counties of this State the Dem
ocrats gain eight Assemblymen. 1t is
barely possible that on joint ballot in
the General Assembly the Republicans
will have small majority, enabling
them to elect United States Senator.
PHILADELpHIA, November 4.-The
Evening Telegraph says the Democrat.
ic State ticket is pretty certainly all
elected. General McCandless undoubt
edly defeats Gen. Beaih for Secretary
of Internal Affairs, Judge Olnstead,
the Republican candidate for Lieuten-
ant Governor leads his ticket here and
elsewhere and may possibly be elected
by small majority, but the chances
appear to he against him. The Senate
will stand % Republicans to % Demo-
Gratis, but the House will have a Demo
cratic majority of from 10 to IL. ma
king the Legislature Democrat on joint
ballot and securing to the Democrats
United States Senator in place Of Scott,
Republican. =

NASHVILLE, Nov. 3.-The election
passed off quietly The vote is very
light, at least one fourth less through
out the State than in the August cleo

turns indicate the election of Colonel

erto Republican by large majorities
give Democratic majorities of l,10(
and 250 respectively. The Democrats
are jubilant over the result in Nor!i
and South Carolina. The election was
unusually quiet. Il
