Vide of Ten states,

Party.
There were elections in ten states yes
terday, for various offices, and up to this
morning the advices received indicate that
the honors wcrc about equally divided be
tween the two parties. Massachusetts,,
which many supposed aud few hoped
would re-elect Ben Butler, has defeated
him by placing the Republican candidate,
Robinson, in the gubernatorial chair by n
majority of about 5000. In Minnesota,
which is a strong Republican state,
it is altogether likely that that
party has again carried IL, al
though the mcagre returns received
thus Tar indicate that the Democratic can
di6ate for governor, who is q Norwegian,
is elected as four-tifth Of the Republican
voters of the state are Of that nationality.
In Connecticut the Republicans have won,
which is generally a forgone conclusion in
that state. They have carried the Legis-
laturc, probably by forty majority on
Joint ballot and probably have nine of the
twelve senators, This will make the next
Senate stand fourteen Republicans and
ten Democrats. Reports from throughout
Nebraska show that q fair vote has been
cast. The election is for Justice of the
supreme court and four regents of the
state university. The regents are con
ceded - the Republicans but there was an
animated contest for Judge, and the result
is yet very doubtful. Virginia, Mahones
state, has come up uOOly aud
vindicated its Southern houoc by
emphatically aud implicitly Tepud at
ing the methods OF Mahouo and
his corrupt following in spite Of the open
encouragement he received from the ad.
miniStratiOn. Malone is beaten and the
Democrats claim the House by 10 g aud
the Senate by ,. Richmond city gives
the Democrats ., 700 majority. Her whole
polled vote is over 10, 900, the largest ever
cast. New Jersey, too, has shown its
firm and royal adherence TO the party Of
the people by electing Lson Albeit, in the
face of a determined, continued and bitter
opposition, governor on the Democratic
ticket, with the assembly Democratic and
the Senate probably so. In Maryland, Nc
Lane, q Democratic governor, has been
placed in the chair by a majority which
is undoubtedly very large, as he
carried Baltimore city by 1000 other
returus from the state are not yet in.
There are very meagre adviceS from Mis-
sissippi but what are at hand Indicate un.
doubted Democratic victory by sweeping
majority. New York is in doubt, and il
will require all OF TO day to give definite
result, and both parties claimed it this
morning. The Poughkeepsie district, q
most formidable Republican stronghold,
was carried yesterday by Democratic
majority of 1000. Hendrix, Dem, is
| thought TO be elected mayor of Brooklyn
over Low, the Republican candidate. The
| Republicans have carried Pennsylvania by
o majority of about 5000. The returns
received from the first indicated a Repub
| lican victory. At II o'clock the Demo.
Gratis had given up the state. The com
PARSONS were made with the vote for
| governor last year, the Beaver and
stewart vote being added. The aggregate
vote is small, probably not exceeding
900, 900 in the state. There was no such
scratching on the state ticket as was
expected.
