NEW YORK.

ALBANY. November 9.-Returns from the
State as far as received, together with es-
timated returns, give Carr a majority of
5456. The Evening Journal says the senate
is tied, and that the Dem ocratS have ma
jority of 3 in the assembly.
New York, November 10.-Tha
Worlds Legislative table makes the
senate stand: Democrats II, Repub
licans Is; assembly, Democrats 67,
Republicans 81, and claims the cleo
tion of State officers by majorities
ranging from 2000 of Purcell to over
20, 900 on Maxwell. Fer State Treas
urer, the Tribune, from advises thus
far received, estimates Cars major
ity at 6700. The senate, it thinks,
will stand II Democrats to Is Re-
publicans and the assembly 66 Demo
Gratis to 81 Republicans.
The Sun says neither
party has elected it's en-
tire State ticket. So far as incom-
plete returns show, Carr, Repub-,
ican, for Secretary of State,
runs ahead of his ticket in nearly
every county and is probably elected
by about 400 plurality over Purcell.
Maxwell, Democrat, for treasurer,
defeats Hustled, Republican, by an
es mated maj jorlty of 10, 900 to 5000.
The figures are insufficient on the
rest of the State ticket to indicate
the results, and each party claims
the election Of it's ticket by 5000 An
official count will be necessary
to determine the result.
The majority will probably
be only few hundred each way
The Democrats have carried the
legislature by or 10 on joint ballot.
The senate will stand II Democrats
to IL Republicans. The assembly will
probably be composed of 69 Demo
Gratis and 60 Republicans. One or
two doubtful districts have not been
heard from, but they will not wipe
out the majority, even if conceded
to the Republicans. Messrs. Skin
ner and Wadsworth, Republicans,
for congress to succeed Senators
Miller and Lapham, are elected.
ALBANY, n. Y, November, 10

ticket, with the exception of Hustled
