f GREEN ,1LLE, November Election
livery quiet and orderly. "A heavy vote has
been polled. Colored Republicans from
the country voted in the city in large
numbers, greatly increasing the usual
vote at this precinct. The Republicans
voted solidly for their electoral and
county tickets, and no State ticket. No
county precincts have been officially
heard from, but the Democratic majority
in the county may be estimated at no
less than 1000. The count is progress
ing, and so far not q single Greenback
vote has been counted. L is probable
that the ticket has received light vote
in the mountains.
Startling Littlejohn, colored, RePubli-
can, was arrested for repeating, and in
default of bail, was committed to- Jail.
Other arrests will probably be made for
the same offence.

the solid Democratic and white vote,

S47 majority. There is no doubt of car
rying the county by upwards of 300 ma.
iority. The United States supervisors
were established in the polling places all

ness of the result. There was a great
deal of Radical repeating, which could
not be stopped, as they invariably swore
themselves in, assisted by fellow.Repub-
Ilicans who swore likewise.

K1NesrREE, Williamsburg Co., Nov. 2.
The election at this place to-day passed
off without any violence, although at one
time collision between the whites and
blacks was imminent. The negroes at
some places did not forget the lesson
taught them early in the campaign, and
carried out the "possum" policy and did
not vote at all. The Democracy feel
confident that they have carried the
election.

cations are that York will give the Ma
