A remarkable party of excursionists
lately paraded through the streets of Caul-
mes in the Contes-du-Nord, France.
"First came a loW-back car covered
with tarpaulin and provided with wind
curtains. A charming miss held the
reins; while young Englishman on
horseback, in short breeches, red shirt
and whip in hand, trotted by the side Of
the horse. A second carriage followed.
1t was of huge proportions, and, in out
ward appearance, like a mountebank car;
the inside, however, was more comforta-
ble-a library, wardrobe with
plate-glass door, chest of drawers
and washstand in one, beds and
sideboard, the whole of mahogany
nothing was wanting. Last came a
vulgar cart, carrying-a long boat. They
are not gypsies travelling in this manner,
but rich English people. They are from
London, and intend visiting France in
that tournout. They thus drag their fur
nished homes with them in order not to
have the bother of putting up at hotels.
They are off to Laval. When our tourists
are tired of riding on land they launch
their boat and ship their house on it..
The rolling home then becomes a floating
one, and they have to roW-from the

AUGUSTA, Nov. 5.-ConflictiDg reports and
rumors have been coming to Augusta all
night. but the latest dispatches received by
Blaine early this morning give him ma
iOrity of 5000 to 5000 in New York, and con-
firms his election.
Blaine was up most of the night receiving
election returns and slept late this morning.
The dispatches received up to l O'Clock this
afternoon confirmed the earlier ones OF this
morning as to the Republican victory IN New
York but gave lower figures. Florida and
Virginia were reported as claimed by the Re-
publicans, the latter very positively by Ma
hone and others. Two hundred and twelve
towns give Blaine plurality OF l4,232.
Augusta has been excited all day over the
election. Many cOngratulatOry dispatches
were received from all quarters. About noon
Senator Malone telegraphed a confirmation
OF report from John S. Wise that Virginia
had gone Republican. This news was very
consoling to Blaine's friends. a dispatch
was received announcing that California had
declared for Blaine by a majority of 10000,
Nevada by a good majority ana Oregon
by 1000. Several discouraging dispatches
were received from Indiana, which had pre-
viously been regarded as for the Republicans,
but Blaine's friends were not disturbed be-
cause they claimed that he could be elected
without Indiana. About 8 O'Clock to-
night a message was received from Mr..
Mchener, Secretary OF the Indiana
Republican State Committee, saying that al
though the vote was close Blaine would
almost certainly have a small plurality.
The following from New York was received:
81 have accurate returns from every district
save lS7 in the State. and making ample
allowance for the latter, am sure you have
carried the State. s. b. FRENCH"
From New Orleans came an announcement
of an increase in the Republican vote and also
from Wisconsin. Mr.. Blaine remained quietly
at home receiving returns, and being still
hOarse he spent most of the time in his room
to avoid the fatigue of talking.

WISCONSIN.

MILWAUKEE, Noy. 5.-Returns from over
half the towns and wards OF the State now
assure the election of the Republican national
and State tickets by not less than 10000. The
Republicans have elected six out of nine Con-
gressmen, with one district, the Sixth in
doubt. The following are the Republican
Congressman elected, with their probable
majOrities: CasWell, First district, 5000;
Lafalate, Third district. 1,C00: Vanschack
Fourth district, 1000; Thomas. Seventh dis
trict, 1900; Price, Eighth district. 5000; Ste
phensOn, Ninth district, $4,000. The Demo-
Gratis have elected Bragg in the Second dis
trict and Rankin in the Fifth. The contest
between Guenther, Rep, and Smith, DEM,
in the Sixth district is very close, and the
official count will probably be necessary to
decide the question.
1t is now thought that the Republicans have
elected the entire State ticket, secured the
Legislature. and gained four Congressman.
The returns from the deciding precincts in
the Sixth Congressional district now assure
the election of Guenther, Rep, which had
been in doubt till this evening. This will
make the States Congressional representa-
tiOn stand Republicans to 2 Democrats.
Returns from 43S towns and wards show
net Democratic gain of 1878 on the Presiden-
tial ticket as compared with 1880. Should
prOpOrtionate gain be shown for the Demo-
cratic ticket IN the remaining precincts,
Blaine will have carried the State by 10000
majority. Latorreturns are showing a smaller
average Democratic gain,

The excitement here to-day was intense.

to u Democrats.
Almost complete returns for 63 out of the 67
counties in the State show a gain for Blaine of
1896 over Garlield's vote Of 1880. This would
indicate that Blaine's plurality over Cleve-
land Will not be less than 60, 600. The cOun-
ties to hear from gave Hancock a majority of
3,OT, but Blaine has gained almost uniformly
all over the state. They will be more apt to
increase than decrease his plurality.
Blalne's plurality in Allegheny county is
$4,000. The full Republican county and legls-
lative ticket has been elected. James III .
Hopkins, DEM, was defeated by James S.
Negley in the Twenty second Congressional
district by 10000 majority. Thos. NJ. Bayne,
Rep, in the Twenty third district, has been
reelected by 5000 majority.
Omclal returns from counties in this State
