Correspondence Of the RiChmoud Dispatch.I
NOVEMBER s, 1880.
With the announcement in the ViHdjC0tOr
this morning Of the result in the Seventh
congressional district subsidized the intense
excitement which has kept 4 large mai GRITTY
OF the voters OF Staunton on the streets for
the last three days aud nights, with only Il
few hours or quiet in the small hours. The
delays in hearing officially from the five
counties OF Greene, Page, FIuyanna, High
land, and GoOchand kept everything in
doubt, and the respective friends OF Allen
and Paul claimed their election until
Yesterday, and many until last night,
when the official vote OF Highland, giving
Paul majority OF 27S, was received at the
indicator Office on a postal from Mr.. l..
A. Stephenson, OF Monterey, one OF the
faithful minority there, and the reported
maiorities for Paul OF 9 in Goochland and
$50 in Fluvanna came by telegraph from
the Richmond Dispatch.
Then 1t was that Aliens friends threw
up the sponge and conceded PauPS elec-
ton bv at least j43 majority. And now the
quiet that always follows a storm has come,
while the responding ones are few. The
glorious triumph Of Augusta Democracy
and Virginia Democracy makes many bright
faces, aud assures us that all has not yet
gone 10 the bad.
