Officers to be Elected.

Officers to be Elected.
From the Baltimore SUM-
In view of the Presidential election IN
November the State elections which will
precede it will be looked to with inter
est. The following is the order of these
elections (:
1. Kentucky, on the first Monday in
August. This election will be for mem
bers of the Legislature and Circuit
Judges. The Democrats are making &C
tive preparations for the election, but SO
far the Republicans indicate a purpose
to allow the canvass to go by default.
g. California, on the first Wednesday
in September. This election is for mem
bers of the General Assembly and mem
bers of Congress. The parties are pref
ty equally divided, each claiming the
victory, and an exciting contest is pre-
dicted.
3. Vermont, on the first Tuesday in
September. This election is for State
officers and members of the General AS
sembly, and as the State is overwheln1-
ingly Republican, the only interest at
/ tached to the election will be in noting
the relative loss and gain of the two
parties.
4. Maine, on the second Monday in
| September. Here State ticket will be
elected, and there seems to be no doubt
of the reelection of Gen. Selden Con
ner, Republican, the present Governor.
5. Georgia, on the second Tuesday In
| October. Gen. a. I'll. Colquitt is likely
| to head the Democratic ticket for the
Governorship, whose election is predict
ed by rs, 900 majority. As yet the Re
publicans have not indicated purpose
to contest the field.
6. West Virginia, on the second Tues
day in October. This election embraces
State ticket, members of the Legisla-
ture, and members of Congress. The
Democrats are already in the field with
State ticket, headed by the Hon. A. H.
Matthews, present Attorney General, for
the Governorship. The Republicans
will nominate State ticket during the
latter part of the present month. The
sions are healed, and that they will carry
the State by large majority.
| Z. Ohio, second Tuesday in October.
In this State full ticket, with the ex-
ception of Governor and Lieutenant
! Governor, will be elected. The Repub-
leans claim they will carry the State by
an increased majority over Hayes vote
in 1875.
s. Indiana, on the second Tuesday in
October. Here full State ticket will
be elected, the Democratic ticket being
headed by the Hon. j. D. Williams,
present member of Congress, for the
Governorship, and the Republican ticket
by the Hon. Godlove S. Orth, late Min
lister to Austria. Indiana promises to be
the battle ground preparatory to the
Presidential onset in November, and
both parties will put forth their best eff
forts to secure the ascendency.
8. Iowa, on the second Tuesday in
October. This is Republican State,
and may be expected to cast it's vote in
that direction both in October and No
vember.
10. Nebraska, second Tuesday in Oc-
tober. This is also Republican State.
IL. Texas, on the first Monday in No
vember. This State will probably go
Democratic by from $4,000 to 100000
majority, but the election istoo near the
time of holding the Presidential election
to affect it in any perceptible degree.
