CLEVELAND, Nov. 6.-Lste this
evening the impression prevails here
and it is based on the careful review of
all the returns now at hand, that the
Democrats have a majority of two in
the House Of Representatives and pos
sibly majority of two in the Senate.
II this should be the case, a Democrat
will succeed Henry B. Payne in the
United States Senate. The senatorial
election will occur in January,
1890. Senator Sherman has al
ways had Democratic colleague and
now Payne, who is a very old man, and
who gays that ne will not be a candi-
date for re- election, will be followed by
another Democrat.
From the best information at hand,
gathered from both headquarters, the
House will stand 81 Democrats, and SO
and the Senate 10 Dem>
ocrats, and II Republicans. This
would give the Democrats a majority
Of 10 on joint ballot.

RICHMOND. Va, Nov. 6.-Virginis
has repudiated Malone and his Admin
istration hackers by a majority which
at this time-1 A. M.-appears likely
to each 35, 900. Many strong Republi-
can counties, both in the black district
and in the western portion of the State,
where there are few negroes, have gone
Democratic, showing that both the
colOred people and the independent
white Republicans refused to support
Malone The General Assembly will
be Democratic by two thirds maiori-
ity. This sweeping victory, which has
made the Democrats wild with enthu-
siasm is attributed to an intense dislike
OF Malone and his methods, and TO the
uprising OF the intelligent white people
against the domination of the negroes
and the unscrupulous politicians whom
Malone has surrounded himself with.
Governor Lee attributes the result to
the 'blocks OF five'' and other methods
sought to be introduced by Malone and
Quay and to the loyalty OF the people of
Virginia to their principles.
