Catchings. DEM, for Congress in the Shoe

Pearce, Rep. Cleveland's majority in that
district is very slight. Dispatches from all
sections of the State show that the negroes
voted largely with the Democrats.
Very little attention has been paid to Ohio
to-day, as it was largely Republican. The
majority will probably exceed 81, 900 and may
reach 10000. Twenty-seven counties show d
net Republican gain over October Of 6,755, moi

officially, except Henry, Monroe, Ottawa and
Paulding. The net Republican majority i:
81, l65. The four counties named gave net
Democratic majority of 5,316 in October. Thi.

MICHIGAN.

DETROIT, Nov. 5.-=FWepty- cOun-
ties shows a net majority for the fueiOn cleo
tOral ticket of 4.642, and for the State ticket
4.07S. The Post (Rep.) claims the whole of the
national state ticket. It will be late in the
day before there can be told definitely any
thing about the returns. The muddy cOndi- =
tiOn of roads prevented returns from arriving
from back towns. At this hour, 6:25 a. M,
both parties claim victory, and full count is
needed to settle the question.
1t is believed that the Republicans will
elect their Presidential electors. The contest
between BegOle, Fusion. and Alger, Rep, for
Governor Is very close and both sides claim a
victory. The EuslOnists elect Congressman
in the First, Fourth, Sixth and Seventh dis
tricts, ali of whom are Democrats. The Re
publicans elected their Congressional candi-
dates in the Second, Third and Ninth districts.
HOrr's district is still undecided, but has
probably gone with the FusiOnists.
The latest reports on Congressman give the
fusion ticket 6, all Democrats. Maybury in
the First district, COmstOck in the Fifth, Wi
Tarsney in the Eighth, and Fisher in the
Tenth. The Republicans elect 3-O'DOnnell
IN the Third District. CutcheOn in the Ninth,
and MOhat IN the Eleventh. Full returns are
needed from the Second district to decide the
question. as the vote is very close. The
Fourth district Is claimed 10y both parties,
and reports are SO contradictory that IJ is i'm
possible to tell what the result will be.
The Eight Congressional district has gone
Democratic. Il. G, HOrr, Rep, has been de-
feated by Tarsney, Fusion. The Republicans
q
Ocrats claim l,400.
The returns in regard to the fusion may be
somewhat confusing. The Republican vote is
in full on the leading candidates. To get the full
fusion vote on President it is necessary to add
the vote given separately for Cleveland and
Butler. II The vote of the State is decided for
the fusion ticket CieYeland will receive 6
electoral votes, Butler 6 and goes for Blaine.
In voting the GreenbacRers voted for the same
men for the twelve electoral places, and for
different men for the thirteenth place, which
allows a chance for one Blaine eiect0r. 1t
was desired to find the relative strength OF
the Greenbackers and Democrats, and hence
the vote is sent separately. The reports so
far in give very little information about the
upper peninsula. which a Republican
stronghold, but the indications are that there
are great Democratic gains there.
The returns received this afternoon indi-
cate the election OF the State and national
fusion ticket, but later figures may alter this.
The Democrats now claim the State. The
Republicans claim the State by clear ma
IOrity. The upper peninsula has been heard
from in favor of the Republicans, but the eX-
act vote is not yet known.
Five hundred and thirty precincts in Michi-
gan give Blaine SS,67l. Cleveland 76, ,l0l, But
Ter Is, 5,l29. st. John SIZE, fusion plurality of
1859, and a net Democratic gain of 6,S45 The

LONDON, Nov. 5.-The American quarters
in Paris and London have been greatly ex-
cited over the Presidential election in the
United States. The various news rooms were
kept open throughout the night, and as con-
flicting accounts were received each party
became alternately jubilant or depressed. he
Democrats, however, have been most SAN
guine. Private dispatches were hourly re-
ceived at the American Exchange in Charing
Cross, where there were congregated anxious
crowds of American tourists. One dispatch
was received saying that New York State had
been carried by the Democrats by 10000 ma
jOrity, but reports and rumors finally dwindled
from that figure down to Republican victory

Burn Your Straw.

1t may not be generally known,
and yet it is nevertheless true that
the law requires merchants receiving
queensware to burn the straw in
which it is packed. They are not al
lowed to sell or give it away. This
is done because queensware comes to
US from foreign countries, and is
packed in straw that may contain
noxious seeds, such as the Canada
thistle, and it is to prevent the intro
duction of such seed in our country,
that the law requires the burning of
the straw. 1t is a wise provision and
should be strictly adhered to. The
following is the section of the law to
which we refer:
cit shall be the duty of any per-
son who shall ship or cause to be
shipped into the State, any fruit trees,
queensware, or other property of any
kind or description, packed in OF
with straw or grass of any kind, te
burn said straw or grass at the time
of unpacking the same, and if any
such person shall not destroy suct
grass or straw, he shall be- deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor."
