Eighteenth ward. Judge BuckvaIter in J'
Gliding the Mandamus case for that nrac;u.
said that as Thompson, the Republ;eaa
judge. did not witness the count tha
court could not compel men to certify ~ -
it's accuracy. The other judges had maJo
a count and had delivered their return ~
improper form. He would require them ~
present their return in heusual and nro,s,
form, taking care to show the date at
which tits made. As to the proof OF ir,uI
the court said the fact that Sixty-nine mora

THE NEW RETURNS.
When the judges presented their amended
return after noon, Justice Sandrrson
member Of the c%anvassing board, could nNt
be found. Another justice Of the Peace
was called to act in his place. The Official
footings complete make Hoadley's plural.
ity 6SS; Kennedy, Republican, for Lieu.
tenant-Governor has ii plurality of 1874.
NJ. F. Wilson has the highest vote for
Senator on the Democratic ticket, 34,S72
and Richardson the highest on the Repub.
lican ticket-34,44 Hardacre is the
lowest on the Republican ticket, 34,1lS
and Brashears on the Democratic ticket
34,5S4. For Representatives the variance
is not so great, but the Democratic figures
are all higher than the highest Republican
vote. The clerk will probably issue Ger.
t~ificatse to all except the Senators as soon
as the footings are made. The injunction
as to Senators still holds. 1t was argued
all day on the denurrerand motion to dis.
solve, and was not supplanted by the other
proceedings. A %mandamus is before the
Circuit Court for the reason that but two
OF the judges are here. They called the case
and set it, hearing for Monday.
