The election throughout the country
passed off quietly. There we're no very 70
markable changes, unless the defeat Of
Gen. Butler can be 80 called: Such changes
Is occurred were due in most instances to
local causes, the strength Of both great par.
ties beixg virtually intact: e..
MINNESOTA.
The whole republican state ticket ID elect.
ed by handsome msiorities. Gov. Hubbard's
msjOrity Is estimated at $4,000 and the bal.
auce of tie ticket much more; com caring
the total number OF volts cast In lie pre-:
cinc,s in 1881, wbe, Hubbard re eived
90s7 and Johnson go, to this the in.
is that the total vote will be not far short of
10000 ips' cad OF 1872 600, a. two years ago.
pr ,vided later returns yield Q correspond
ing increase in the total vote: BY the n.
ito between Hubbard ana Bierman in these
precincts, which is about that of eleven to
nine, the former will receive 81, $40 votes,
and the latter 81 5)0 giving Gov. Hubbard
in the neighborhood OF Is. 600 majority.
In the Dodge county senatorial district
Severance t ,epubic:n is 81 e!e .s .e over
the late Senator McLsughlin. In the Red
Wing district Hall will take Senator Chand.
ler's seat, Bass, the regular republican
being feated by the split growing from
last tails contest. In Mower, Wilkinson,
republican, is elected to the legislature.
CIV. Hubbard received 1850 majority in
Ramsey county.
MASSACHUSETTS.
The whole repubi lean ticket was elected
as follows: Governor. 0e0ree D. Robinson:
lieutenant governor, Oliver Ames; secretary
Of state, Henry B. Pierce; treasurer and re-
ceive- general d. A. Gleason; attorney gen.
eral, E igar J. Sherman; auditor, Charles
r. Laid.
Butler has been defeated by a deceive
majority. In Boston. which last year ave
him majority of l3, $40, he now has hut
GIL. Only two towns in the State; 50 far
as heard from. report Butler gains. The
Republicans claim the election OF R >binson
by al least ,OGO maj ority, and also twenty.
Sven out OF forty-seven senators and 100
out Of Pa representatives.
Butler, to judge by present indications, has
ROLLED about 135, QUO votes, or 200 more
than last year; while Robinson has received
100, 600 or 40 mo more than were cast for
Blsnop in 1882. As shown above. nearly
Il, co.. votes have been cast, which is an
mount more than - 600 greater than was
ever recorded in NJ .ssachusstts The near.
est approach to this number was in 1880,
when 253. 600 votes we're cast.
NEW YORK.
In New York there il some doubt as to
the result, th0ngh the state has probably
gone Democratic, excepting that Carr, Re-
publican, candidate for secretary OF state, Is
thought to have been elected. The Repub.
licans claim fair working majority in
both branches of the legislature, which will
insure the election of Republican senator
to succeed Lspham. Ii Brooklyn the con.
test over the mayor has been hot
one, and the result is. very close:
both sides claiming majority of
some 2, 600 votes, the ticket probably is,
secretary Of state, Joseph B. Carr; coutrol-
Ter, Alfred G. Chaplin; treasurer, Robert A.
Maxwell; attorney general Dennis O"rien;
state engineer aid surveyor. E. Sweet. Jr.
The Albany Argus dem, estimate at 2
ticket at BY 10000 to $4,000, except NJ ~
nard. Who is probably defeated by 1000
to IL, 600. 1t estimated the senate 10 re-
pub:,cans and Is democrats. The assem-
bly, is in doubt.
PENNSYLVANIA.
Complete returns from 81 of the 81 ceun-
ties in the state give Niles. rep, for auditor
general, maj ority of Is, 443. The three
remaining counties, Bradford, Forrest and
jority to about 1900. which is large
republican gain. The offices elect are:
treasurer. William Linnesey; state auditor,
Jerome 3. Niles.
NEW JERSEY.
The Democratic state committee claim
the election by over 900. Tney also claim
the assembly. The Republican state COM
mittee cOncede the election of Abbott, DEM,
by q small majority. The Republicans
probably have the senate by three majority,
and the D. mocrats rhe house by four, Civ.
ing the la ter m ] 'rity on Joint ballot.
MARYLAND.
Reports from Maryland received in vari-
Gus quarters are very incomplete. They in.
dictate that McLaue, Democrat. has been
elected governor by about 10000 majority,
and majority in the legislature.
VIRGINIA.
In Virginia the contest was the most ex.
citing that has taken place tor many years
owing to the fact that on the result depends
the congressional reapportionment of the
state and the elect On OF q succ s,or to Sen.
ator Malone. Both sides claim victory
the democrats asserting that their gains
have been heavy 10 all paris of the state,
and hatthey expect q maj GRITTY in both leg
islative houses. The proba bi]ities are that
the result is very close, end that it will be
several days before anything definite is
known.
The r chmond Despatch elem.) claims q
victory with maj ,rlty on joint ballot of
from ten to % and the popular ma ority be-
tween 10000 and $1,000. Senator Malone,
on the contrary, C a m readjuster's victory.
MISCELLANEOUS.
In Mississippi, as usual, there was a
sweeping democratic sue less. Tue only dis
rurbance in the s ate IS far as heard from
was in Cassiah county, where Wheeler
killed Matthews. Matthew, went to the
