The kemDsvii!c Riot.
Norfolk Landmark.

A representative Of the Landmarks, who
arrived from Princess Anne county last
night, brought us the startling news OF
riot which occurred at kempSville about S
O'Clock last night, in which several gentle
men and 4 large crowd Of negroes were in
VOWED, the latter being the agsressors. Our
representative obtained his information
from reliable parties, and it is as follows
After the close of the polls difficulty oc-
Cured between 4 white gentleman and
negro in front of the old hotel, and as some
twenty-five OF the latter's friends were with
him, while there were only five whites. all
the negrocs became very insolcnt as we'll as
dcmOnstrative, and finally serious riot en-
sued, during which some twenty shots were
fired.
Colonel Griecs, q resident OF the Bayside,
who was present received Il plStol-Shot i'll
the inner side Of the left thigh, making a
painful but not dangerous wound. Sheriff
George r. Wh:tehnrst, Of the county, who
was in another portion OF the town, on
hearing the pIstD-shotS and learning that
difficulty was occurring between the whites
and negroes. Immediately hastcned TO the
spot and commanded the peace. Upon this
the negroes retired 4 short distance, but
seemed TO be greatly excited. Finally one
OF their number said that he must go
back OF the hotel and get something.
Sheriff Whitehurst remarked to him
that he had better not go. The negro de-
c!ared that he must go. The Sheriff there
upon offered 10 go with him, and did so.
The negro. on reaching the spot, stopped
down and pulled from under corner OF
the hotel doublc-barrellcd shotgun. A
gentleman standing near by witnessed TINS
act, and. springiuS forward, seized the gun,
wrenchcd it from his grasp, and broke 1t
against Il tree. The entire crowd OF ne
aroes then uttered Il wild yell and charged
down upon the whites, but they were again
checked by the sheriff, and retired Il short
distance, where they fired two shots; after
which they dispersed. with the arowcd in-
tcntion q securing arms and returning to
renew the aiiray. When orr representative
LETT kempsy!le, 1T $3.50 O'Clock. they had
not made their appearance, but the citizens,
and especially the ladies, were very much
excited and fearful OF a more determined
and perhaps deadly attack. When about
two miles this side OF kempsvile he saw
two groups OF negroes in the woods near
the roadside and met number OF others
going in the direction OF the village, but
they had no arms in sight. Sheriff White
hurst displayed great determination and gal
iantry throughout the whole affair. He was
assisted by Mr.. 0. Mems, Captain John L.
Nash, and other gentlemen, and the former
had one OF his ears burned with powder.
The riot seemed to be the result OF precon-
certcd plan, and. considering the fearful
disparity Of the whites, it is matter OF sur
prise as well his congratulation that no more
serious consequences followed.

1t will thus be seen that the Democrats
have majority OF fifteen over all opposi-
ton, and majority Of twenty-one over the
Republicans. The chances are that Dc La
Matyr and Murch will vote with the Dem
ocrats, and that the Greenbackers from
Iowa, Bradley and Barlow, will vote with
the Republicans. Thus the Democratic vote
will be augmented probably by one from
Maine, aud one from Indiana, making their
total vote 156, while it is equally probable
that one Grecnback vote from Maine, two
from Iowa. and one from Vermont, will
vote with the Republicans, which will give
the Republicans total vote OF 137. The
net majority will therefore be about 10, or

AFTEB THE. BATTLE--A SUMMARY OF THE
RESULT FROM A REPUBLICAN, STAND;
z poINT-THE STATE DELEGATIONS IN TIE
NEXT HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
WAsnIserox, November 6, 1878.

WAsHISGToS, November 6, 1878.
The following from the Washington Star
OF this afternoon will give the result Of the
elections yesterday IN a nutshell:
Enough OF the smoke of yesterdays great
political battle in thirty-one States has
cleared away to get q glance at substantial
results. The Republicans have made gains
in nearly every Northern State. held their
own in Virginia, made a gain in Maryland,
and met loss in Missouri. The New York
Republicans have secured tine Legislature,
which means the reelection Of Senator Conk-
ling to the Senate; and in Connecticut they
also carry the Legislature, which will elect
a Republican senator to succeed Senator
Barnum (Democrat), and chairman OF the
National Democratic Committee.
THE STATE DELEGATIONS IN THE NEXT HOUSE.
The hard fight the Republicans have been
making was mainly directed to an effort to
secure majority Of the votes by States in
| the House Of Representatives. From the
table which we print below it will be seen,
by estimating California, which is yet to
elect. and giving it the representation in
the Forty-sixth Congress that it now holds
in the Forty-fiftb, the Republicans will
have majority OF the votes in the follow
ing State delegations-viz., California, Col
orado, Connecticut. Illinois, Iowa, Kansas,
Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mime
sofa, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire.
New Jersey, New York, Pennsl lyania.
Rhode Island. Vermont, and Wisconsin,
total of 10 States.
The Democrats have majority in the
States OF Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware,
Florida, Georgia, Kentucky. Louisiana,
Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, North
Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, South Carolina,
Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and West Viz
ginia-a total OF Is States.
Indiana is n tie. with Republicans, 6
Democrats, and Greenback.
1t will thus be seen that if an election for
President was thrown into the House OF
Representatives in 1881 it would be impos-
sibIe 10 elect candidate, for the reason that
De La Matyr, the Indiana Greenback, in
such contingency would undoubtedly vote
with the Democrats, which would make OF
the whole vote to be cast 10 Republicans
and 10 Democrats tie.
PARTIES IN THE NEXT HOUSE.
From Geographic data it would appear
that the Democrats will hold about the same
majority in the Forty-siXth Congress it now
holds in the Forty.fith. 1t may be that
Wade HAMPTON may allow e. Republican to
be elected in Smalfs district. which last year
gave Republican majority OF 1900. The
dispatches, however, indicate solid Demo
cratic delegation, and in the annexed table
it is so given. The representation by States,
carefully estimated from attainable data, is
about as follows:
