ELECTED TO THE NEXT con-
ST. LOUIS, November 1.-THE report
ed returns from all the counties In the
Ninth district give Ford, Greenback
Rep, 800 majority over Rea, Dem., the
present Incumbent. The returns from
the Eighth district Indicate the election
OF SAWYER, Ind, DEM, over Crisp, regu-
gular DEM, by about 500 majority.
From the Sixth district the returns in
dicate the election of Waddell by a
plurality of 1900. The Democrats
make large gains in the district, some
of the strongest Republican counties
changing squarely around.
ST. LOUIS, November Tt is now re-
ported that Rothwell, Democrat, has 4,-
900 majority in the Tenth district over
Pollard, Republican, and present incum-
bent. Kitchen, Greenback, is developing
good deal of strength in the Fourth dis
trict, but the returns are too meagre ye
to s. ate the result. Ritchey, Greenback
is also making a good run in the Sixtl
district, but Waddell, Democrat, will M
| doubt be elected.

EOw THEY WILL AFFECT THE Il. W. ~ u.
RAILROAD.
The new schedule adopted by the
Southern railway convention, which
met in New York on the 18th Of October,
goes into effect on Sunday next. This
schedule restores the morning and even
ing through mails from New York to all
the Southern States on about the same
time which wa, so satisfactory for over
quarter of century, and which under
went no change until about two years
ago. The train leaving New York at 10
D. M, will leave Baltimore at 4:2O a. m, I,
and make close connections for all points
South and Southwest over the Rich
mond, Fredericksburg and Potomac, and
the Washington City aud Virginia Mid
land roads and their connecting lines.
The 10 a. M, train from New York makes
about the same time and passes over the
same lines as the 10 2. m., train, being
| twelve hours later. The present $3.50 a.
| M, train east from Charles street stauon
! will leave about midnight.
In this connection il Is satisfactory To
note that the Philadelphia, Wilmington
and Baltimore road restores the early
morning mail from Baltimore to the
Delaware Peninsula and the Eastern
Shores of Maryland and Virginia by
placing a new train on, which leaves
| baltimore at 6:l0 a. m, for Philadelphia,
making connection for the Delaware
road. The train leaving now for Phil
adeIphia and New York at 6;45 a. M,
will be changed to 7:10 a. m, running
with increased speed and reaching Phil,
adelphia and New York on present
schedule time. The company have added
a new train to leave Philadelphia at 5'5t
D. M, arriving in Baltimore at $40 r.. m
The Philadelphia, Wilmington and Bal
timore Railroad Company will make
daily connection at Philadelphia Will
the New York 4:25 a. M, train for Harris
burg and the West leaving Philadelphia
at 7:25 a. m, Sundays included arriving
at Baltimore at l1:35 a. III. The 200 p

for the interest account for the year 1878
had been expended. He thereupon offer
ed an ordinance which was read twice,
making additional and extraordinary ap-
preparation for interest for the year 1878.
Mr.. McGlinchey, introduced a resolu-
tion calling upon the StreetC tCommissione
to furnish the City Council, with the
names and pay of of the men who were
employed in digging ditch on the South
Side, how long employed, and material
used and by whom ordered.
Mr.. Paynter, wished to know what the
resolution meant.
Mr.. .McGlinchey, said he thought the re-
solution was sufficiently long enough to
explain Itself. His attention had been
called 10 the matter within a short time
and he was of the opinion that the work
had been uniawfully done. He further
unders ood that $500 had been expended
unlawfully.
Mr.. Norton said that he had some rec
ollec ions of the matter. The $500 ad-
ditional was appropriated OH motion OF
MIR. Chandler, and he thought that Mr..
Chandler, would be the proper person to
go to.
Mr.. Paynter said he knew something
about the matter in question. Accord to
his recollections, the Old Council had met
on the ground, and the contract was
awarded to the American Dredging Com.
pany for $500. Afterwards it was
agreed to add 10 feet additional fol
which $500 was appropriated.
Mr.. McGlinchey said the ditch that he
referred to, the American Dredging Com
pany had nothing TO do with it. He hat
been informed that just before the elec
ton large force of workmen were en-
gagged digging ditch there, and thos'
were the ones he was after.
MIR. Guthrie said he remembered tha
there was $1,SO0 appropriated for thu
di ch, but he had found upon looking
over the reports, that there had beei
$500 expended.
The resolution was then passed unani
mously, Mr.. McGlinchey calling for th'
ayes and nays.
Mr.. McGlinchey introduced the follow
ing resolution which was adopted:
ResolUed, That the City Solicitor fur
nish his opinion TO the City Council

The Work of the Board OF Canvass.
The Official Result Of Tuesdays Etec-
tiols.
The Board of Canvass met at New
Castle yesterday at noon and put in
full afternoon, announcing the returns OF
Tuesdays election in the different cleo
tion districts, footing up the totals, and
signing the necessary certificates. Lewis
Eliason and VIM. A. KINNEY were ap-
pointed clerks, and the count proceeded.
Among the many scattering votes re-
corded were some which were evidently
intended for the regular candidates, as
"Clarke" for Philip II. Clark, abraham
Rothwell' for Abram Rothwell, and like
instances. These votes the Board, with
the greatest libeIality, ordered to be tai
lied with the vole of the regular candi-
dates for whom they were evidently III
tended, as the large majority for the
| Democratic ticket could in no wise be
affected by these slight changes.
When John j. Flanagan, the In
spector for the Eleventh District, Will.
lmington, arose to read his returns, his
colleagues applauded him loudly, thl;
special distinction being accorded hin
because he was the only Republican In
Ispector in Wilmington.
When the labors of the Board of Can
vass were concluded, County Treasure
Herbert paid off the Inspectors an,
Judges present, which promptness ON hi
part was greatly appreciated.
The official totals, as announced b.
the Clerks, vary very slightly from tn
totals published in the GAzETTE's tabl
of Wednesday. They are as follows /:
