The result in Florida and Louisiana

Hayes, unless further returns

The Result of the Election

In this county is given IN full
in the official canvass published
in another column. For preslden-
tial electors the democrats had a
majority of 2 for congressman 10,
for assemblymen 90, while FifieId
fot the State senate had a majority
of 80.
The County ticket was free
fight, and some of the candidates
were slaughtered in the house OF
their friends; every one considering
he had all be wanted TO do to take
care of himself. Neither party had
a regular ticket in the field, and al
most every candidate had a separ-
ate ticket printed and each voter
was supplied with about dozen
different ballots.
For county treasurer Mr. Bardon
had handsome majority-nearly
two to one over ali opposition. MIR.
Desimval for sheriff received more
votes than both of his opponents,
and Mr. Greeley for clerk of the
court surprised himself. For the
other offices the contest was very
close, and Mr.. Syer reached the
registers Office by only four votes
to spare, while Ref for county
clerk had only three and Richie for
district attorney only two votes to
brag over.
The weather was not unpleasant,
as it so often is on election day, the
best of feeling prevailed, except
one little spat; and as general
thing no fault is found with the re-
suit.
