The October Elections.

COLUMBUS, o., October Al 40 A. M
At this hour we have returns of the vote on
governor from over one.fourth of the state,
which shows Republican gains of 7 400, and
indicate Republican majority in the state
of not less than $4,000. Definite returns Of
the result on members of the legislature
have not been received, and the legislature
is claimed by both parties, with the chances
in favor of the Republicans. The chairman
of the Democratic executive committee
comedies the election of the entire state
Republican ticket, but claims that sufficient
returns have not been received to deter
mine the complexion of the next legisla-
ture, and thinks that later returns will show
large Democratic gains in several counties
OF the state. The chairman of the Republi-
can executive committee claims the elec.
ton of Foster by $4,000 majority, and
thinks that the Republicans will elect
majority of the members of general assem-
bly,.
COLUMBUS, October 15.-The returns
which have been coming in this evening
are largely from Democratic strongholds
which materially reduces Fosters majority.

cede as large majority as this, and it may
take full official returns to decide what the

The Springfield (Mass.) Union says:
The control which good locomotive
engineer has over his engine is something
remarkable. A long time ago some of
the depot attaches noticed that the 1:1k
train from the south seemed to stop
daily at tie seltsame spot when coming
to standstill at the depot, and about
two months ago mark was made to
designate the precise locality. Since
that time the train has not varied six
inches from the mark, and some of the
friends of the engineer have presented
him bouquet in acknowledgment of
his skill.
