CINCINNATI EVACUATED.
THE LAST OF THE TROOPS
WITHDRAWN.

Police Now the Only Guard Around the
JaiI-The Election in the City Quiet
and Orderly-Returns from the state
Favorable to the Republicans.
CINCINNATI, April s.-The Seventeenth
Regiment left this city this morning and
the Jail is now unprotected by military. A
detail of so extra policemen under Lieu
tenant Langdon, in charge of Gatling
gun. will assist the Sheriff and the First
Regiment OF militia will remain in readi-
ness for a call.
THE RIOT INJURING THE DRAMATIC
FESTIVAL.
The riot scare shows its effect in the
sale of seats at the auction for the Dra
matte Festival Association. A very
small number of bidders were present,
and only about 100 seats were sold during
an hour. The premium began at $50 but
soon fell so that the average was not
more than So. Manager Miles says that
he finds that people abroad are actually
afraid to come to Cincinnati for fear of
being shot. He SAYS that no assurance of
safety seems sufficient to remove their
fear of danger.
THE ELECTION.
The returns for Cincinnati Of yester-
tfS - GlCGLlOu were HOb All reported at
noon to-day, but enough is known 10 show
the total vote to be about 10000. Police
Clerk Richards Republican majority
will be from 400 to 700, and it is possible
that the Republicans will elect one men,
Der of the Board OF Education. With
these exceptions the entire Democratic
ticket is elected by majorities of from 400
to 500. The returns show very large Re-
publican gains in the German wards.

enormous. There was a general lack of
interest. among the leaders of the parties,
and the vote shows more spontaneous ac-
tiOn than is usual in such an election. The
only active workers were the candidates
for the Police Court. The municipal re-
form ticket, though nominally the work
OF both parties, it is generally understood,
has drawn most of its votes from the Re-
publicans. If it had not been before the
people the result would have been less
favorable to the Democrats throughout
the State. The reports show Republican
gains in most of the larger cities. Spring
held, however, shows q considerable
Democratic gain. The reports are gen.
orally silent upon the subject Of gain or
loss, as local issues influenced the vote in
most places.
CINCINNATI DEMOCRATIC.
CINCINNATI, April 8, 1870 P. Nun
official returns from all precincts but one
and an estimate from that one give the
following pluralities: Peck Dem. }, for
Superior Court, 400; Heron Dem
Board of Public Works, 426; Richards
Rep. }, Clerk Of Police Court, 1929: Her
man Dem. J, Director of Infrmary, 121;
Cronin Dem. }, Wharf Master, 4S9. Four
Democratic members of the Board of Edu-
cation were elected, one by a majority of
only y votes. In the Fourth Aldermanic
district only three Democrats were cleo
ted and two Republicans. For the sixth
place there was a tie between two Repub-
licans. The Common Council will stand:
y Democratic Aldermen to Repubi-
cans, and the Council 20 Democrats to 80
Republicans. On joint ballot the Demo-
Gratis will have AZ and the Republicans SO.
The popularity of the vote in the Sixth
ward gives rise to suggestions ola contest.
While the total vote everywhere else is %
per cent. less than that Of last fall, this
ward polls 10 more votes than it did then.
Gov Hoadly had a majority there of 36S,
and now the Democratic majority is 951.
There is also complaint of irregularity in
the Eighth and Twelfth wards. The total
vote of the municipal reform ticket is
about 500.
