THE PRESIDENTIAL SITUATION.

Yesterdays and last nights dispatch
es leave the Presidential situation still
shrouied i'll doubt. Seemingly, moth
ing definite can be obtained from any
quarter. Louisiana, Florida and South
Carolina are the States towards which
ali eyes are just now turned. Our very
latest news is especially encouraging to
Democratic hopes. At l0last night the
New York Democratic Central Com
mittee gave out information and sent
it broadcast over the country, that Til
den had, undoubtedly, carried all three
of the doubtful States. 1: any portion
of this dispatch be true, why then it is
a settled fact that we are to have a
change OF administration. 1t will not
do, however, for either party to fire
the anvil artillery until something a
little moro definite is received. There
are so many contradictory dispatches
ahoat that it is simply impossible to
form anything like 4 correct conclusion
regarding the result. Both sides ap-
pear to be about equally conddent,a and
such being the case we must all possess
ourselves in patience until the real
status of affairs is known. This will
probably require a day or two longer.
In the meantime we are prepared to
see the whole thing thrown INTO a
grand muddle through alleged frauds
in the doubtful Southern States, no
matter which party wins. But let US
wait and see what another day brings
forth,

One of the Senators from WaShoe,
the hold-over, is an independent who,
two years ago, acted with the Demo
Gratis throughout the session. Lincoln
and Elko each elected a Senator at the
late election, both of which we have
credited to the Republicans. We have
also assumed the success of Skillman
in White Pine. and Creswell in Nye.
Each OF these gentlemen were a very
little ahead at latest accounts. Our fig
ures may possibly be a little off, but
we think they are i'll the main correct.
At all events, there will not be more
than one or two difference in the
strength of the respective parties in the
Senate at the approaching session.
We estimate the Assembly at % Re-
publicans and 2l Democrats. No In
dependents have been returned from
any county this year. 1t is a good
thing for the State that so many Dem.
ocrats have been elected, as the Repub-
licans were pretty generally committed
to the repeal Of the bullion tax law
ard the calling Of a Constitu.
tional Convention. With the Legis
lature constituted as we have estimated
it, there is no likelihood that either
proposition will prevail.

The Virginia Enterprise of the Sth
says: THE California Mining Company
yesterday made their final cleanup for
the past fiscal month. The net yield
OF the mine for that period was Sl,l7o,-
1853 90. Of this amoun S597.Sl9 Is
vas gold, being 4 little over fifty per
cent. of the whole amount. There arc
many places along the Comstock where
the yield of gold exceeds that of silver,
and the question is coming to be asked
whether. after All. il be n0t rather a
gold than q silver lode. 70 be sure
the amount Of silver along the whole
lode is now in excess of the gold re-
turns, but, comparatively speaking,
and in reference o tho contemplated
developments of the future, we may
he said to be only, as yet, scratching
among the roofs of the sagehruSh.
Some of the latest scientists have adj.
vanced the idea that the two metals Oc
cupy a sort Of matrimonial relation to
each other, the gold being the positive
and the silver the negative metal. THIS
theory has been advanced from tho fact
that the two metals are generally found
together.
The Pioche Record of the 9th says Of
Ward City: - ha>ty view of Ward
City. on Saturday morning, led us to
the opinion hat this will be 4 thriving
town, at least, for a while. Building is
going on rapidly, and the various
branches of trade seem to be doing
well. PHI. Felsenthal and the Hip
Brothers have the principal grocery
and provision sores in that place, and
are doing a rushing business. The in
tiuX to the town leads us TO SUPPOSE
that Ward City will be no exception to
the rule Of new. mining camps. and
will, of course, be overdone. Town
lots on Main street are ranging from
two to seven hundred dollars, accord

Between 10 and II O'Clock yesterday

OF the oth, a miner named Joseph
Pierce, working III the Gould Il Curry

on a plank in the pump shaft, 100 feet
from the bottom, assisting in removing
q puIIrp rod, when an ascending cable
caught the plank and pulled it from

WAS instantly Killed. Pierce was about
forty years old, and had a family in
Cornwall, England.
The Enterprise of the Sth says: John
Carol, the man shot a few weeks ago
by the boy Paul Carol in Lower Gold
Hill, in a dispute over land boundaries,
died at 3 o'clock this morning. A

against Paul."

TILDEN AND HENDRICKS PRO
BADLY ELECTED.

Dispatches received late last night
announce that Louisiana, Florida and
South Carolina have gone Democratic,
which, if true, insures the election Of
Tilden and Hendricks. The reports
are apparently authentic, aud we have
but little doubt of their tr%uthtulness.
In connection, however, with the many
conflicting reports which have bseu re-
ceived by telegraph, we admit the pos
sibility of their being overdrawn.

Blue STAR TICKETS. Both the
Democratic and Republican ballots in
Storey county had devices on them
ON the inside, of course. The Dem
ocrats used a blue star, and The Repub-
beans having got hold OF a ticket
countertieited the design, and so all
went in the ballot-box together. The
Chronicle says the best legal opinions
on the coast sustain the legality of the
"device" business. This is precisely
what all sensible men know to be the
true construction of the law on the
subject.

PACIFIC COAST DISPATCHES
FROM
What They are Sayin. and Doing in
ram francisco.


SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 10.
The city is quiet this mording. The
crowd was late in assembling, though
at thi, hour noon there is quite a
gathering around the bulletin boards.
Both parties seem tired of sho aling,
bat examine the returns and comment
quietly. AT the respective party head
quarters very few are in attendance
aud no news has been received there.
The impression is gainin & ground that
Hayes is elected and the latest dis
patches MIR that belief. The DEM
ocrats don't give up the fight, but their
dependency is ill concealed. Aside
from the general result the recent
movement to investigate the election
in this city causes more talk than ANY,
thing else. The Republicans claim
that the action of the Democrats was
prompted by kilograms from Duke
Gwinn that California must be carried
for Tilden, AMI that the whole move
ment was with fraudulent intent, while
the Democrats express a positive be-
lief that great frauds have been perpe-
trated on them. Out Of all the talk
me LtIIel SeetllS I'D Dt gaming ground
that, after all, no Investigation will take
place.

VIRGINIA, New, Nov. 10.

Nothing to-day to change the result of
yesterday. Hayes has in the State
about 1000 majority. Wren, Repub-
