Tn Massachusetts CASTOR, the Democratic
randidate for Governor has reversed Wash-
burne's majority of 1900 last year ana carries
the State by a majority which will probably
reach 5000. Six Opposition Congressman
mt of the II are elected. Butler, GOoch, Aver,
Williams, and Alexander being on the
roll of defeated candidates. Ihe ma
iority against Butler exceeds one thousand
Gen. Banks is elected by about 5000 majority
The Republicans have probably saved the
Legislature by small majority, but Mr.
Dawes's prospects for election to the u o.
Senate are not at all good.
In Pennsylvania the vote is very close, ana
IL claimed by both parties. Small Democratic
maiorities are generally reported from the
counties. and in Philadelphia the Republicans
claim only 5000 majority, about 1900 less
than last year. A gain of Opposition Con-
gressmen is reported.
In Delaware the Democrats elect their state
ticket by from eight hundred to two thou
sand majority, the member of Congress, ana a
majority of the Legislature, thus insurlng the
return of the Hon. Il. +. Bayard to the U. 3.
Senate.
In Michigan the Republicans have elected
their State ticket by about 10000 majority,
no I,aO OiaIo
majority. The Democrats have gained three
Congressman.
The Republicans have probably carried Wis
eonsin by small majority, and they claim a
majority on joint ballot in the Legislature
The Congressional delegation stands the same
as in the last Congress.
The returns from every part of New-Jersey
although meager-indicate almost universal
Democratic gains. The Democratic candidate
for Governor Judge Bedle, is ahead of his
ticket throughout the State The Republican
candidates for Congressman had a severe con-
test, and the majorities reported of the sue
lessful candidates-with one exceptiOn-are
exceedingly small. The returns for Senators
and Assemblymen were so slight that no
opinion could be formed as to the successful
men.
The Democrats have gained largely in Ten
nessee, defeating Barbour Lewis for Congress
in the Memphis district, and gaining two and
probably three members in the State. Five,
and possibly six Democratic congressman are
elected in Virginia and three in Wisconsin.
In the latter State the Legislature is reported
Republican by reduced majority.
The Republicans have carried Minnesota by
reduced majOrities; and the Democrats have
gained two congressman.
Alabama has been carried by the Conserva-
tives by from 5000 to 10000 majority, and the
Opposition has gained two Congressman.
In Arkansas the Conservatives appear to
have polled very full vote, and to have car
yied all of the Congressional Districts
In Georgia, the meager returns received
indicate large Democratic majority on the
State ticket and the election of all the Demo-
cratic congressman.
The returns from Louisiana are still very
meager and the result is still in much doubt.
The Conservatives claims the election of five
of their Congressional candidates, and ma
jority in the State of about 10000. Marshal
Packard, on the contrary, claims the election
Of three Republican Congressman and the
State Treasurer.
