REPUBLICAN COMFORT m NEW JERSEY.
TRENTON, N. j., Nov. 3.-The election
in this state has resulted in substantial
victory for the Republicans. Tie only
issue was the Legislature, in both branches
of which the Democrats will be egain in
the minority. The best estimates ut mid
night give the Republicans IL votes in
the next senate to for the Democrats,
and in the assembly SO Republican votes
to "a for the Democrats. This is Re-
publican gain of two in the senate and
loss of several in the House, but it leaves
a Republican majority on joint ballot.
At the political headquarters here the
news from Cape May county elects
Haines, Rep, for senator over Ludlam,
Dem, by majority of IA. In Bergen
county the Democrats elect John w.
Bogert senator. In Burlington William
II. Carter defeats Charles Wills forsenator
by about 500. Daniel O. Chase is said to
be elected senator in Middlesex over
Howard MacSherry, Rep, and in Passaic
John w. Griggs, Rep, is reelected by
800. Sussex elects Democratic senator,
John A. Mcbride, by about 1000.
The most surprising feature of the re-
turns is the probable election of George
II. Large, Rep, for senator in Democratic
Hunterdon county. His majority is esti-
mated at $50. There has been serious
bolt in Hunterdon, led by the Demo-
cratic Advertiser, which last week took
down the name of Moses X. Everett, the
Democratic candidate, from the head of
its columns. The bolt is chiefly against
the Pidcock wing and this result will
cause an upheaval in Hunterdon politics.
In this county (Mercer) the three Demo-
cratic candidates for assemblymen were
showed under, even the Democratic dis
trict giving over 200 Republican majority.
