nominated as Senator from the TWEEN
ty-fifth Dirtsrict. composed OF Meek
lenburg and Brunswick Counties, by
an Overwhelming majority. Returns
from twelve OF the seventeen pre-
cincts in Mecklenburg show that JEFF

for his opponent, J D. Elan, OF
Brunswick. The five precincts which

and II In not believed that their vote
will affect the ratio between the candi-
dates. 1t is estimated here that the
final vote from Meckienburg Count
ty will be approximately: Jeffreys,

so high that the vote polled was
very large one, despite the severe
storm of yesterday afternoon.

only be Appropriated. However. q
