New YoRE, November 5.-Returns now
at hand indicate that out OF thirty.tVo
Senators chosen yesterday the Republi.
cans elected twenty.iour.
The C0mHLecial AdrertiScr, Republican,
apprehends that the Republican State
ticket below Governor is defeated.
The Evening Post says the Republicans
have gained q majority in both branches
OF the Legislature and elected Cornell
Governor, whilethe Democrats have se-
cured the other State officers.
Brooklyn, November 5.-Robinson has
n, IA, Cornell 81 500.
The World says the tho returns from
Tuesdays election in this State still come
in very slowly. Such as have been re.
ceiyed show the election OF Mr.. Cornell
Republican, as Governor by an as vet
unasCertained plurality. There is a ma.
iority against him on the vote cast in
the State Of at least 10000. Clarkson
Potter, Democratic candidate for Lieuten.
ant Governor, received, in this city 62, 7O2
majority, the largest ever given eycept
once before Tor candidate on the State
ticket With the rest OF the Democratic
State ticket Mr.. Potter is elected.
The Republicans yesterday set up
a claim TO the election OF some Of
the candidates on their State ticket
under the pretense that Kelly had been
employed BY them to break down some
OF the other Democratic nominees as we'll
as Governor Robinson. The Republicans
have doubtless secured q two.thirds ma
iority in both branches OF the Legislature,
though three or four districts are still in
doubt. The Democrats have elected
their Senator in Conkling's own
county, and it is noteworthy that there will
as in st. Lawrence aud Jefferson counties,
both OF them Republican strongholds, the
Democrats made decided gain this year
on their last votes for Governor. The
whole vote for Kelley, throughout the
State, will net much exceed $4,000.
The Tribune says: Cornells plurality
seems slightly increased, and Ia now esti-
mated at more than 5000. The vote on
Lieutanant Governor is very close be-
tween Potter and Haskins, and the official
vote may be needed TO decide. Potter's
majority in New York and Kings counties
is 57,36S, and Haskins' plurality in
the State, outside OF New York
and Kings counties, is estimated at
$1,000. Only about one.third of the whole
number OF towns has been heard from.
However, the returns upon the other eau.
didateS are inconclusive, but seem to
show that Wadsworth Is running ahead OF
Hoskins. The result on all Of the State
officers below Governor Is still in the
dark. Soult, Republican candidate for
Engineer and Surveyor runs behind. The
Legislature is overwhelmingly Republi-
can. The Republicans elect twenty.four
Senators out OF thirty-two, and ninty-nine
ASsemblynen out of 12S, within six of al.
most the Unprecedented number OF Re-
publican Assemblymen elected last year.
The Tim9 says: Cornell carried forty
six OF the sixty counties in the State, and
his vote will exceed Governor Robinson's
by from 10000 to 5000. Kellys vote
seems to have been somewhat larger in
the State than was at first supposed, but
as it has not been reported by all the
counties it Is difficult TO say what the total
will be. 1t is probable, however,
that it will not fall much short Of 10000,
including New York and Kings counties.
Legislature is strongly marked. The next
Senate will consist Of "a Republican and s
Democrats, with tho Eight district doubt
iul, the election being claimed by both
Republican and Democratic candidates,
Robert II. Strahan and John W. Brown
ing. At the Assembly there will be 90
Republicans and So Democrats, giving a
Republican majority Of SO and securing q
Republican majority OF 72 on joint ballot.
