The elections Of Tuesday show an
unparalleled uprising Of the North in
favor Of popular free government, and a
concentration of the ex-rsbels of the
South upon what il called Denoera oy
in favor Of a restoration Of the old oil
garch y to power. The following re-
turns so far received show Republican
gains everywhere except in the solid
South, where the rebel bullet hal more
weight in tn. elections than the freed
mems ballot.
PENNSYLVANIA.
The official returns are still meagre,
but the Republicans have good reason
to claim q majority Of rs, 900 for Hoyt,
and it Is more likely TO b. above than
under tl,at figure. n
Advices to-day point unmist stakably
TO the defeat OF ex Gov. Curtin for Con,
gress by Yocum, green backer, which is
the greatest surprise Of all to the dem
ocrats, as they carried Curtin's distric,
in 1876 by Ave thousand, and no thought
Of failure there was entertained.
Gen. Harry White, republican, has
narrowly escaped defeat, but republi.
cans claim there is no doubt of his re-
election.
In Philadelphia Randall's majority
is increased and Keiley's is reduced.
There will be two or three nationals in
the Legislature, bnt che republican ma
jority on joint ballot is estimated a,
not less than forty, and nearly every
member Of the majority Is pledged to
support J. Donald Cameron for re-elec-
tion to the United States Senate.
In the seventh congressional distric,
VIM. Godschalk, Republican, will have
200 majority. In the eleventh con-
gressionaI district the con test between
Kiotz, DEM, and Albright, Rep, IL
very close. Full returns will be necss-
sary to decide which is elected. In the
eighteenth congressional district II. e.
Fisher, Rep, is elected over Stenger
dem, by about 400 majority In the
eighth congressional district Heister
Clymer's DEM, majority will ba
5,047. In the twentieth congressional
district Seth H. YOcum, National, is
elected over A. G. Curtin, democrat, by
73 majority. In the nineteenth con-
gressional district F. z. BeltzhGover.
dem is elected by $500 majority. In
the thirteenth congressional distric t
John W. Ryon, Dem,, is elected by 25o
majority.
The State Legislature will he repub-
licau by majority nearly or quite as
large as that in tha last Legislature,
In the congressional districts through,
out the State the probabilities are that
the delegation will stand as now, l9
rrpu blicans and 8 democrats. Stenger,
dem, is certainly beaten in the eigh-
teenth district, but the democrats ap.
pear to have gained Coffroth in the
seventeenth. In the second district
Charles O'Neill, rep, is reelected over
Gibson by a maturity Of 5,029; third
district, Randall, dem, over Shedden
rep, and national, 1883; fourth dis.
trict, Kelley, rep, and national, over
Banes, dem, 6, ,l69; fifth district, Har-
mer, rep, over Dallam, dem, 5.03s.
The total vote in Philadelphia OH the
State ticket is: Hoyt, rep, 69,940
Dill, dem, 53,3sl Mason, national,
3,l5s; Zane, prohib., l46. For city
officers, Louis Wagner, rep, is elected
recorder of deeds by 1862 majority
over Michael Nsbet, den. Geo. Free,
man, rep, In elected clerk Of the Court
of Quarter Sessions by s,s47 majority
over WIN. D. Kendrick, den. David
Martin, rep, William s. Douglass, rep,
and John c. McMenamin, dem, are
elected city commissioners. Henry C.
Bingham, rep, is elected to Congress-
in the first district by 5000 majority
over VIM. McCandless, dem.
MASSACHUSETTS,.
The result Of yesterdays vote for
Governor, in Massachusetts,, foots up as
follows: Talbot, 1886 towns, 1874, los,
Butler, l0s,32l, Abbot, 9,s03, Miner,
1867. Talbot's plurality over Butler
rs, ,32l; Talbot's majority over all IL,
776. Talbot carries every district in the
State by q handsome majority except
two Boston districts. Eight towns to
hear from will carry Talbot's plurality
up to 26, 900 over Butler. The .Iourmt'
says the result in the sixth congression
al district is in doubt. There is one town
wanting-Hamilton. Votes received by
telegraph and those in the Newburyport
Herald vary considerably. We have
carefully revised our figures by the re
turns, and we make DR.. Loring rep
elected by l4l. The Newbury ,ort Her.
aid figures Boynton by 66, but editorial.
ly they cannot say who is elected. We
think DR.. Lorint is elected.
ILLINOIS.
Returns from Chicago nearly com
plete, show total vote of 44,7lO, and
the election Of the republican candi
dates in the county. The republican
majorities range from 5000 to 10000
The plurality for Smith, State treasur.
Or, in the county is about 1000. The
greenback vote in the county is about
1000, and socialist vote about 1000
Returns from the thirteenth congress
sional district make it pretty certain

Stephenson, gresnbackor and democrat,
