JACKSON, Miss, Nov. 40 p. MI
The election here to-day was very quiet
and a small vote polled, the returns are
light and the result is not known but
it is expected the Democrats will carry
the State with the exception of few
counties. Pines county will probably
elect the greater part Of the Greenback
ticket.
Special Dispatch to tho Republican.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. 4th.-12
O'clock, MID-NIGHT.-The city tonight
is in wild state of excitement. The
streets are packed with people and the
surging crowd wandering aimlessly
hither and thither reminds US strongly
of that feverish intense state of feeling
which prevailed in "ante bsllum"
days. The returns have come in
and the results they announced have
been received everywhere with mani
festations of genuine joy. Bands are
out. Ward clubs and city organizations
parading the streets make the welkin
fairly ring with expressions of political
feeling.
The Republican club rooms are crowd:
ed, while surging mass of humanity
heave to and fro in the streets below.
The front of the building at Thirteenth
and Chestnut.isIi illuminated whilethe top
is resplendent with the varied hues Of
fine pyrotechnic display. In front of
the Union League building on Broad
street, over five thousand people are
gathered eagerly watching the returns
as they appear upon the transparency.
Here the parades countermarch passing
in review before the members of the
organization who crowd the front of the
building. 1t is estimated that about
Is 900 men are in the professions.
In contrast to this joyous celebration
stands out darkly the quiet and deserted
appearance of the Democratic headquar-
ters. The general joy that exists makes
this contrast all the more manifest. On
every hand Democratic ears are greeted
with Republican shouts for "Gran"
and "a solid North" The transpar-
encies spreading the Generals por-
trait, increases the feeling, while the
conspicuous lettering "Solid NORTH"
both recognized as synonomous, political
ly, are greeted with cheers rs sugges
tive in meaning as was that old time
enthusiasm which carried hero fresh
from fields of carnage and placed him
at the head of the nation. The scenes
going on here tonight are much like
those which transpired at the culmina-
ton of that important event.
During the evening the only serious
trouble occurred at Eighth and Chest
nut, where white man standing on
the side walk was shot; but not fatally.
At the time the Old Reliable Club, COL
ored, was passing in procession. A
number of young men got in the mid
die of the street and refused to stir. A
fight took place, in which razors and
billies were used. In the melee a
pistol was fired with the above result.
The riot, which was imminent, was
checked by the appearance of a large
force of police. A.F.F.

edly complete victory IN Connectlcut,

ed districts and members of the House

led their Governor, State officers and
