eight counties heard from place the Dem
ocratic majority at 100 Hillsboro county,

SAVANNAH, November 10. - Advices
from reliable sources say that Tilden,
Drew for Congress, and a Democratic
Legislature are elected in Florida. The
eight counties of Duval, Alachus, Gods
den, Jefferson, Leon, Madison and Mas
sau give an aggregate Republican major
ity OF 6,5S4. Returns from lS counties, viz:
Baker, Bradford, Clay, Columbis, Hsmil-
ton, Jackson. Levey, Monroe, Orange,
Polk, Putnam, st. John and Pawnee
give an aggregate Democratic majority
of $500. The remaining eighteen coun-
ties in 1874, gave Democratic majority
of 3,206. This, without any increase,
would give total Democratic msjority
of 6,826 and elect the Democratic ticket
by majority of 292. The l8 counties to
hear from however, will probably increase
the m majority of 1874 to 200 or 1900
votes and the entire ticket will be elected
by msjority ranging from 1000 to
1900. Another dispatch says that both
parties still claim tue state. Great eX.
citement prevails. Drew is certainly
elected by at least 200.
