A Times Tallahassee special says:
The Democrats having failed in Archer
precinct yesterday, they made an on
slaugh on Jefferson county, where the
Republicans have a majority of / 300.
They have filed over one hundred afi-
dayits against this county. thinking it
would be too late for the Republicans
o contradict them. They were mis-
taken however. Sherwin went to JET
ferson county in n special train last
evening to collect evidence in OPPOSE
ton to the a~tfidavits, and being obliged
to leave the railroad at Monticello,
he found on his return that the en-
CINE had been disabled and unfit for
use, but the trick did not serve the
purpose after all. Slerwin fortunately
got his witnesses to Monticello in time
for the regular train from Jacksonville
to this point and they will arrive in
Tallahassee this evening. They num-
Der between sixty and seventy and
compromise nearly all of the Republi.
can Inspectors and Supervisors of each
election precinct in the county. More

dentially been able thus tar to meet

Gratis with overwhelming proof of its
falsity. 1t is said the returns will give
the Democrats two majority in the
Senate, and the Republicans two in the
Assembly. No United States Senator
is to be elected this year.
