statement somewhat similar to that sent
last night from the Democratic headquar.
ters. At the Republican headquarters it
Is stated that the Republicans will carry
New Hampshire, get the Governor, and
choice OF next Senator; that there was no
chance whatever for the Democrats in
Pennsylvania; that they and the Green
buckers will be defeated by Sc, 900 or 10000
majority. It was reluctantly conceded
that the next House will be Democratic,
but by very small majority. !, In South
Carolina, despite the bull.dozing and in.
timidation, II was thought that one II not
two Republican members would be re-
turned 10 Congress. As a general thing,
the solid South was conceded elsewhere;
however, no conclusions were made.
From reports received every confidence is
expressed as to the results OF next Tues
DAVIS elections. The statement that lead.
ing Republicans concede Democratic
majority OF thirty in the next House was
pronounced campaign yision.'
