NEW YORK.

NEW 1ORk, november 4-MlunlgnJ.-
The figures now to hand from outside the
cities of New York and Brooklyn
| indicate that Cornell will come to
the Harlem river with plu-
rality of at least $4,000, against which
| Robinson has about $4,000 in New York
city aud about 10000 in Brooklyn. This
calculation elects Cornell by a plurality of
| $4,000, which may be increased to $4,000 or
lessened to 10000. The Democratic state
ticket other than Gov. Robinson is thought
to be elected by $4,000 majority. Both
branches of the legislature are Repub-
lican.
| NEW YORK, November 5.-Later returns
increase CornelPs plurality to $4,000. The
| Times claims the election Of the whole Re-
| publican ticket.
NEW YORK, November 5.-The Times
says: Cornell carried As of 90 counties in
| the state, and his vote will exceed Gov.
Robinson's from 10000 to $4,000. Kelley's
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 coun-
ties it will be difficult to say what the total
vote will be. The legislature is strongly
marked. The next senate will consist of "a
Republicans and Democrats, with the
Eighth district doubtful, the election being
claimed by both the Republican and Demo
| cratic candidates In the assembly there
will be go Republicans and SO Democrats,
giving Republican majority of Sc, and
securing Republican majority of 70 on
| Joint ballot.
The World says: The returns from Tues
days election in this state come in very
slowly. Such SIS have been received show
the election of Mr.. Cornell, Republican, as
| governor, by an as yet I'M ertained plurality.
| There IS ma oritY against him on the vote
cast in the state Of at least 10000. Clarkson
! N. Potter, Democratic candidate for lieu
| tenant governor received in this city 90, 1872
majority, the largest ever gwen, except once
| before, for candidate on a state ticket.
With the rest Of the Democratic state ticket
Mr.. Potter is elected. The Democrats have
elected their senator in Conkling's own
county, and it is noteworthy that there as
well as in St Lawrence and Jefferson coun-
! ties, both of them strongholds OF the Repub-
| hcans, the Democrats made decided gains
this year on their last votes for governor.
The whole vote thrown for Kelly through.
out the state will not much exceed 10000.
NEW YORK, November Gin regard to
the vote on the state ticket, the Herald this
morning says: "Another day has passed,
the third since the election, without settling
the fate OF any officer on the general state
| ticket except governor. The utmost that
can be said is that the voting runs unusually
close in the case of every one of them, and
that the probabilities still favor the success
| OF the Democratlc candidates"
The S'e,, estimates CornelPs plurality at
| 800, and Potter's ma jority at ,230.
MASSACHUSETTS.
! Boston, November 4.-9 P. M.-Returns
as far as received indicate that Long, Re-
publican candidate for governor, is elected
| by from 10000 to $4,000 plurality, and this
may be increased by $4,000 by further re-
turns. The Republican candidates for
state officers are probably all elected and
the legislature will be largely Republican.
The vote shows a material falling off as COM
| pared with last year.
| BOSTON, Mass, November 5.-Returns
from all but eight towns give the following
vote: Long III, ZIG, Butler 8,507, Adams
| 1884, Eddy LAB.
| LOWELL, November 5.-A petition has
been filed for a recount of the votes for
representative in the Twenty-ffth Middle.
sex district where j. j. Pickman was de-
| clared % ahead of Panl Butler, the gene
| ral's son.
PENNSYLVANIA.
| PHILADELPHIA, November 81 A. NJ
| AS far as can be ascertained Butler, the Re-
| publican candidate for secretary of state,
has majority of 37,002. There are still
| II counties 10 hear from, which last year
gave Republican majority OF 5000, and if
| the same rate of gains is maintained the
majority for Butler will not be less than
$4,000 In Philadelphia the Republican
| gain over the vote of 1878 is 13,724
| PHILADELPHIA, November 5.-Estimated
and oficisl returns from 81 counties out OF
81 in Pennsylvania give Butler, Republican,
| for state treasurer, 81 ITS; Barr, Democrat
| IA, 146. Buffers majority, 1852. The in
| dicatiOns are that Butler will have 90, 900
majority.
PHILADELPHIA, November Elm 80 out
of 81 counties in Pennsylvania, the vote
Tuac 1ox hoe l.
and Buffers ma ority reaches 47,021. The
II counties to be heard from gave last year
Republican majority of II ,95l. 1t is esti-
mated that the Republican gains ia these
| counties will give Butler over 10000
majority.
MISSISSIPPI,
JACKSON, Miss, November 4.-The slec-
ton passed very quietly. But little interest
was manifested and small vote was polled
that the Democrats carry all but few coun-
ties. The complexion of the legislature
will be unchanged. The Greenbackers
probably elect part OF their ticket.
JACKSON, November 5-But fourteen
counties heard from. Of these eleven
elected the straight Democratic ticket with
a majority of $500. Kinds and Madison
require the official count; Homer is con-
ceded to the Greenbaekers, with the excep-
ton of senator Marshall county, consid.
cred the stronghold of Greenbackism elects
the full Democratic ticket by g large major
ity. The election passed quietly. A small
vote was cast There was but little enthu.
siasm except in counties where the whites
were about equally divided
VICKSBURG, November 6-By the official
count'the Democrats elect state senator, and
members of the legislature. Republicans
elect nearly al the county officers. Canton,
Madison county, elects a Democratic sena.
tor two Democrats, and one independent
to the legislature. The balance OF the
Democratic ticket elected.
CONNECTICUT.
HARTFORD, November 4.-The net Re-
publican gain in the senate is four over last
year. and in the house eighteen. The Re-
publican majority on joint ballot last year
was Al; this year is SO, aud possibly SO.
Revised footings give the Fifth senatorial
district to the Democrats, giving them two
senatorial districts out of Il.
The legislature now elected does not
choose United States senator, but the sem
ators now elected hold over till next year,
and will vote for senator 30 succeed Eaton
HARTFORD, November 6.-The net Re-
publican majority in the II senatorial dis
tricts is 2,613. In same districts last year
on governors vote, the net Republican ma
jority was II.
NEW JERSEY.
NEWARK, November 4.-The Republicans
have gained one state senator in New Jer-
sey. and probably six embers of the assem-
bly,. They will retain control of both
branches of the legislature, the senate by a
majority of 3, and the assembly, probably
by IA or 16 majority.
