ture, both parties claiming the State-the Re
Ipublicans, however, with more confidence than
the Democrats, the latter conceding the State
to the Republicans by a majority ranging from
1000 to 9, 900 on present returns. They, how
ever, have hopes in Democratic strongholds
not yet heard from. The Republicans claim
the State by from 1900 to 1000.

, We quote the following from the Cincinnati
Enquirer's Indianapolis correspondent: M
: English is greatly disappointed over the Tippe
canoe County vote, where losses are reported
: instead of expected gains. If these gains con
tinue, MIR. English comedies the State to the Re
/ publicans by s, 900 plurality: The reports from
precincts already received show an average gain
of a fraction under six per cent. While thes,
returns are from all quarters of the State, com
paratively speaking, still nothing of any conse
quence has been heard from Crawford, Dubois
and other river counties. Mr.. Lande ha
reason to anticipate substantial gains, and tn
: vote in these three districts may affect the Re
publican vote so far reported. The changes il
: the National vote have been unexpected
Where they were strong III 1876 they have beef
: largely absorbed by the Republicans; while i
Marshall and Stark and several other countie
they have increased at the expense of the Dem
