The Peaceful Civil Revolution.
In 1865, at the end of a civil war
which had shaken the continent for
four years, the armies of the cause that
lost and the cause that won dissolved
like clouds when storms have spent
their wrath, and the victors and the
vanquished resumed the relations of a
common citizenship on a common foot-
ing under a common government. His
tory has already recorded this as a sub-
lime spectacle. As time sped the grace
and harmony of the picture were sadly
marred by party misrule which passed
swiftly from the despotism of honest
bigotry to the more dangerous despot-
ism of organized corruption. Let us
not dwell on the details of that unhap-
py period. Time has its gestations and
its travails. The genius of our free in-
stitutions, though obscured by the
mists, has triumphed over the forces of
corruption, and has given the country
at length, in the glorious event of Tues-
day, a new birth of constitutional lib-
erty. We hail with equal pride and
gratitude a peaceful civil revo-
lution in which the people of
a lately conquered section have,
by their free suffrages, been
essentially instrumental in effect-
ing a profound reform of govern-
ment for their late conquerors as well
as themselves. This, when we think of
it in the light in which history will
see it, is a still sublimer spectacle than
the quiet dispersion of the armies in
1803. In one day forty millions of peo-
ple, by a spontaneous act of peace,
have spoken out of existence one of the
proudest, most cunning, most arrogant,
and most tenacious dynasties that ever
misused power, betrayed popular confi-
dence, and outraged popular patience.
There were times when to organize
public opinion successfully against it
seemed almost a hopeless task, and now
it is difficult to realize the mighty sig-
nificance of the popular verdict of
Tuesday. The power of the earth-
quake is but slightly felt in its shock;
to be appreciated it must be seen in
rivers turned from their channels, in
land replaced with water, in plains
rent with fissures or tossed up into
mountains. A vast transfiguration of
politics was signified by Tuesday's work.
In proportion to the greatness of
the civil revolution . will be the
responsibility of the party which
it has brought into power. A fear-
ful ordeal awaits the representatives of
the triumphant Democracy. It is the
ordeal of prosperity. They have for
the most part bravely borne adversity.
Let them achieve their greatest glory by
triumphing over the temptations of
prosperity, by bearing the distinctions
of power modestly, and by improving
all the opportunities of power in the
exhaustive performance of their fore-
gone pledges of reform. We trust, above
all, that modesty, magnanimity and
graciousness will henceforth distin-
guish the demeanor of Southern Demo-
crats who have been so potent an ele-
ment in the recent election of a new
President. They are called upon to
exhibit such a spirit for the sake of
their fellow Democrats of the North,
for the sake oi the honest mass of the
opposite party, and for the sake of a
true Union and prosperous country
now and forever. Sic itur ad antra.
This is the path to genuine glory and
worthy fame. Pursuing this path, the
Southern portion of the victorious
Democracy will win from their North-
ern comrades, from their Northern
adversaries, and from an attentive
world, the exceeding plaudit, "Thy
gentleness hath made thee great."

Mayor Fulton, in a card, says his
name has been " magnified" by the
News. He intimates that the News
has eiven him too much credit for
wielding political power. From the
way in which the first sentence of his
card reads one would believe he was
going to reply in kind to some irony he
had detected in the references made by
the News to him. The rest of the
card, however, shows that he has not
discovered irony, but seriously takes
issue with the News for attributing to
him more or less influence in local poli-
tics. Let him have it his own way,
and write himself down a political
cipher if he pleases.
Rumor has it that the New York
Tribune has been sold to George W.
C'hilds, of Philadelphia, for $300,000,
the real estate belonging to the paper
being excepted. The correspondent of
the Cincinnati Enquirer says this shows
a shrinkage of nearly $500,000 in the
value of the Tribune since Mr. Reid
took charge of it. In that interval Mr.
Sinclair, the publisher, has become a
$1200 clerk in the custom-house. Mr.
Cleveland, the financial editor, died the
other day intestate, and Mr. Reid has
given up the experiment of revolution-
izing New York ideas on the subject of
journalism.
Gen. Hampton made many happy
hits during his late canvass, but none
better than the following: While ad-
dressing a large and very enthusiastic
crowd lately, a stampede was nearly
produced among a large number of li*-
dies occupying a veranda by a report
that the pillars were giving away. And
that at the moment that a general
rush for the doors was imminent, Gen.
Hampton turned around, waved his
hand, and in a loud voice said: "La-
dies, remember that you are on a Demo-
cratic platform, and it can not fall."

General Estimate.
At the hour of closing the forms (3
a. m.) the result of the presidential
election, as far as ascertained, may be
summarized as follows. The latest of
the dispatches below, which are ar-
ranged by States, and in the order of
their receipt, verify this tabular state-
ment of the vote beyond any grave
doubt:
In the recent trial in Chicago of Sul-
livan for murder, the prisoner, being
allowed to testify, called the prosecut-
ing attorney a liar to his face, and the
widow of his victim shook her fist at
the prisoner and exclaimed, "Justice
will overtake you some day!" In nei-
ther case was there any rebuke from
the court.
Some idea of the magnitude of the
grain trade of California and Oregon
may be gained from the fact that there
are now 143 cargoes of wheat afloat
from San Francisco and 13 from Ore-
gon, on their way to Europe, and 74
vessels waiting cargoes in the Bay of
San Francisco.
There is a rumor to the effect that
Mr. Gladstone will contribute to Har-
per's Monthly for December "a paper
explaining his attitude toward the
United States during the civil war."
Wonder if it isr to be illustrated by
Nast?
TnoMAs C. West, Democratic candi-
date for Sheriff of West Feliciana Par-
ish, Louisiana, was waylaid and shot
on the evening of the 4th instant. He
died the next morning. Of course the
occurrence created an excitement.
The official vote in West Virgiuia,
for Judges of the Supreme Cuurt.,shows
a Democratic majority of 19,955. The
official returns for Governor will not
be opened till the Legislature meets in
January.
Prince Bismarck has shown his ac-
customed sagacity in rejecting the ap-
peals made to him to restrain Russia
from aiding the Turkish insurgents.

Constitution urges the claims of Hon.
Ilerschel V. Johnson for United States
Senator.
FIT FOR A POET'S THEME.
Elections were held on Tuesday, No
vember 7th, for Governor and State
officers in Connecticut, Florida, Illinois,
Kansas, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Mich
igan, Missouri, Nebraska, New York,
North Carolina, South Carolina and
Tennessee. Amendments to State con
stitutions were voted on in Louisiana,
Michigan, New York, North Carolina,
Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennes
sec and Virginia. Those in Louisiana
arc live in number, limiting the ex
penscs of the Legislature to a definite
sum; extending the time for an un
vetoed bill to become a law; defining
the jurisdiction of courts; limiting the
salary of tlie Governor, and forbidding
the collection of fees by State officers.
Those of New York abolish the offices
of Inspector of State Prisons and Canal
Commissioners. In Rhode Island the
amendments repeal the fees for register-
ing voters and admit certain soldiers
of foreign birth, who served in the
United States army, to the rights of
citizenship. A South Carolina amend
ment covers authority to levy a perma-
nent school tax. To the Tennessee con-
stitution eighteen amendments were
submitted, the most important mak-
ing judges elective by the people
and exempting new manufactories from
taxation for six years. Virginia proposes
reduction of number of members of the
Legislature and holding of biennial
sessions. In Michigan and North Car
olina the amendments are of local nature
almost exclusively. New Hampshire
voted for members of convention to
revise the State constitution, but not for
Congressmen or State officers. Of
members of Congress 248 have been
elected, those for Ohio, Colorado, In-
diana, Maine and Vermont having been
chosen previous to the election of Tues
day, when the following States voted
for number of members named: Ala'
bama eight; Arkansas, California and
Connecticut four each; Delaware one;
Florida two; Virginia and Georgia nine
each; Illinois nineteen; Iowa eight;
Kansas and West Virginia three each;
Kentucky ten; Louisiana, Texas, Mary-
land and Mississippi six each; Massa
chusetts eleven; Michigan nine; Min
nesota three; Missouri thirteen; Ne

Tlie Little Girl Lost In Trinity
County Found—Two Days Search
by Strong men.
[Special Telegram, to the Galveston New*.]
■ Trinity, Nov. 7, 1876.
Fannie Roach, the child that was lost
on Friday last, was found by Mr. Jack
Jones late Sunday evening. She had
wandered about 15 miles from her
father's residence. Her feet were
badly lacerated, and she was suffering
with hutiger; but otherwise she seemed
to have withstood the terror of the
situation with but little bodily injury.
Slie had licr bonnet filled with black
haws when found. When the 60 men
that were in seaich of her gathered
around the child on Sunday night, the
sceue is said to have been indescribably
pathetic.

Austin, Nov. 7, 1876.
The races commence three days be
fore the fair on the 10th inst. There
are about thirty fine horses here, and
the Fair Grounds are already being
visited by parties interested. The finest
racing ever known in Texas is antici
pated. The showing here indicates
that Texas will in a few vears outstrip
Kentucky for fine stock. Next Friday^
race will be the greatest ever had in the
State—fourteen entries, being for two-
year olds—to all the world.
The mail failed yesterday—no Galves
ton News last night. This disappoints
four hundred Austin readers. Yester
day's News came in about eighteen
hours behind time.

Washington, Nov. 8.—A close watch
ef the scattering Congressional returns
shows that the Democrats will have a
good majority in the next House. The
Senate will be Republican nominally,
but there are four or five pliable mem-
bers in that body. The Republicans
give Tilden 198 electoral votes, and the
Democrats claim 213.
New York, Nov. 8.—The election of
Hayes is still claimed by cautious Re-
publicans, who count on carrying Lou-
'siana and Florida.
Washington, Nov. 8.—The Star snya
neither Judge Edmunds nor the Presi-
dent has received a dispatch from
Chandler to-day, and the fact is regard-
ed as discouraging to hope for any pos-
sible change of figures to Hayes's side.
Washington, Nov. 8.—The World
Bureau has the following from New
York, dated 7 p. m. : Hendricks tele-
graphs that he has trustworthy advices
that Wisconsin has gone Democratic by
1000 majority.
Alabama.
Montgomery, Nov. 8.—Returns con-
tinue to indicate 25,COO majority for
Tilden. Herbert, in the Second, Wil
liams, in the Third, Legon, in the Fifth,
Hewett, in the Sixth, Forney, in the
Seventh, Garth, in the Eighth, all Dem-
ocrats, are elected to Congress. Re-
turns are favorable to Jones, Democrat,
over Bromberg. Shelly, Democrat, has
gains in the Fourth District, and is very
hopeful of election over Haralson, and
Rapier, rival candidates. As far as heard
from there was not a disturbance in the
State. The United States marshals and
deputies in this city were, with few ex-
ceptions, negroes.
Montgomery, Nov. 8.—Further from
tlie Fourth District shows that the con-
test is close between Haralson and Shel-
ley. Shelley has made great gains.
Arkansas.
Little Rock, Nov. 8.—The vote is
smaller than in October. All the Dem-
ocratic Congressmen are elected.
Connecticut.
Hartford, Nov. 8.—Returns with
only 25 towns unheard from, give
Tilden 2790 majority.
Hartford, Nov. 8.—Tilden's ma
jority in Connecticut is 2824.
Florida.
Lake City, Nov. 8, via New York.—
Finly, Democrat, is elected to Congress
by 600 majority. Columbia county's
Democratic majority is 195; Democratic
gain, 240. Duval county—Republican
majority, 800; Republican gain, 330.
Partial returns from other portions of
the State show Democratic gains,
with a prospect of the Democrats car-
cying the State.
Lake City, Nov. 8.—The opinion of
moderate mem is that Florida will elect
its entire Democratic ticket by over 2000.
Democratic gains are large in all coun-
ties, with three or four exceptions
Lake City, Nov. 8.—Alachna, Baker,
Bradford, Clay, Columbia, Duval, Ham-
ilton, Madison, Monroe, Nashua, Put-
nam, Suanee, Levee and Marion give an
aggregate Democratic majority of 373.
We partially estimate the Democratic
majority in Mantee, Hillsboro, Her-
nando, "Polk and Sumter at 2500. We
estimate the Democratic majority in
counties west of Apalachicola at 2000.
We estimate the remaining counties at
the majority of 1874. This secures a
Democratic majority of 2550.
Savannah, Nov. 9, 1.40 a. m.—A
railroad disaster in Florida cuts off
news. You have all I have early.
Illinois.
Chicago, Nov. 8.—Hayes's majority
in Illinois approximates 30,000. Later
returns make Lamoire's election doubt
ful.
Chicago, Nov. 8.—Republicans gain
three Congressmen in Illinois.
Indiana.
Indianapolis, Nov. 8.—Return*
from 220 townships give Tilden 46,316
11 ay (A 45,647. The same places in
October gave Williams 45,486 and Har
rison 45,319. Net Democratic gain 80.
Indianatolis, Nov. 8.—Returns from
240 townships and voting precincts, or
24 per cent, of the October vote, heard
from, give a Democratic net gain of
476. The increased vote in th<! town-
ships is 1060.
Indianapolis, Nov. 8.—Returns from
260 townships give Tilden 58,872,
Hayes 57,083. The same places in
October gave Williams 57,970, and
Harrison 56,916.
Indianapolis, Nov. 8.—Two hun
dred and sixty points, covering twenty
seven per cent, of the October vote,
show a Democratic gain of 753. The
same ratio would give Tilden 7,861 ma-
jority in the State.
Three hundred towns show a Demo-
cratic gain of 700. The places unheard
from gave a Democratic majority of
6691 in October.
Indianapolis, Nov. 8. — Returns
from 1340 townships give Tilden 80,933,
Hayes 83,145. The same places in Oc-
tober gave Williams (Democrat) 79,834,
Harrison (Republican) 82,870—a Demo-
cratic gain of 824. Thirty-eight per
cent, of the vote has been heard from.
Indianapolis, Nov. 8.—Returns from
389 townships and wards, which con-
tain 43 per cent, of the October vote,
show Hayes ahead by 3494, but which
is a Democratic gain of 909. The same
ratio of gain would give Tilden a ma-
jority. Strong Democratic counties are
to be heard from, and may increase this
estimate. The townships not heard
from gave 9539 Democratic majority in
October.
Iowa.
Des Moines, Nov. 8.—Returns from
seven counties and twenty-two pre-
cincts in other counties show a majority
for Hayes of 9367. Republican gain of
4727. The State will go at least 55,000
Republican. Every precinct shows
Republican gains.
Louisiana.
New Orleans, Oct. 8.—1 p. m.—No
definite returns received. Matters stand
as at 11.30 last night. Both parties
claim the State. The indications point
to Democratic gains in interior parishes.
The Democrats claim the election of
Elam for Congress over Smith in the
Fourth District. The city will proba-
blv give 10,000 Democratic majority.
toff Orleans, Nov. 8.—The follow-
ing special is from a Democratic source
at Clinton, East Feliciana parish, dated
to-day: Owing to the failure of the
Registrar to fill his appointments, a
larger number of voters did not regis-
ter; 1743 registered votes were polled.
Hayes got three and Tilden the balance.
At the poll conducted under United
States Supervisor 443 voters, who had
been unable to register, deposited their
votes in a separate box—all Democrats.
The Republicans refrained from vot-
ing. No intimidation. The gross num-
ber of votes is within 300 of the num-
ber at the last election. Many Demo-
cratic voters were deterred by want of
registration. Whites and blacks frater-
nized—all happy and jubilant.
Note.—The above majority of 1740
shows a Democratic gain of 2581 over
the vote of 1874. Prominent Republi-
cans say the voting in East Feliciana
was informal and the votes will not be
canvassed by the Returning Board, the
registrar sent there having been run off.
It is intimated that other Democratic
parishes will be treated the same way
:'or similar reasons, charges of fraud,
etc.
Ouachita Parish: Democratic major-
ity, 1807—a Democratic gain of 1915
over the vote of '74, when Dubuclet
(Rep.) received 828 majority.
New Orleans, Nov. 8.—The follow-
ing official and unofficial returns of
parishes have been received: Iberia (of-
ficial)—Republicans, 1453; Democrats,
1246; Republican gain, 377. Calcasieu
—Democrats, 1241; Republicans, 95;
net Republican gain, 25. West Felici-
ana—Democratic by 250 to 300 majori-
ty; Democratic gain, 1109. Jackson
Parish—Democrats, 1040; Republicans,
330; Democratic gain, 265.
Note.—Comparisons are made with
74 returns of Democratic Conservative
Committee, as published in the World
Almanac.
The election was peaceable and quiet.
No disturbance reported from any
quarter of the State. Reports show
that the Democrats polled a heavy ne-
gro vate in interior parishes.
New Orleahs, Nov. 8 —Midnight—
In 11 parshes partial official returns,
estimated, show Democratic gains of
7127 over Democratic Convervative re-
turns of '74, which elected Moncure
(Dem.) Treasurer by 2939.
The above indicates that the Demo
crats have carried the State by 15,000
to 20,000, as claimed by the Democratic
Committee. The Democratic majority
in the city will probably reach 11,000.
The Republicans claim the State by
10,000 to 15,000.

025; a Democratic gain of 9463 over
1872. The same gave Croswell (Rep.)
for Governor a net majority of 6631.
The Democrats claim the election of

jority.

elect seven of nine members of Con-
gress, and claim an eighth.

ernor is running behind Tilden.
St. Louis, Nov. 8.—Sixty-four towns
and precincts give Phelps 8840 ma-
jority.
St. Louis, Nov. 8.—Unofficial re
turns give Anthony Ittner, Bep., First
Congressional District in this city,
about 200 majority, and Nathan Cole,
Rep., in Second District, from 300 to
400 majority. These are Republican
gains.
New Jersey.
Jersey City, Nov. 8.—The Demo-
crats carry the State by 15,000, and
gain one "in the Congressional delega-
tion, and have a majority on joint bal-
lot securing a United States Senator.
Trenton, Nov. 8. — The Senate
stands—11 Democrats to 10 Republi
cans; House—29 Democrats to 31 Re-
publicans, giving the Republicans 1
majority on joint ballot. The Demo

the above figures are reliable, and se
cures the Republicans a United States

al delegation remains four Republicans
and three Democrats.
Trenton, N. J., Nov. 8.—The Dem-
ocrats have three majority on joint

gains are reported from all quarters,
from which returns have been received.
There is no longer any doubt that
the Democrats have carried the State.
Raleigh, Nov. 8.—Returns continue
to come reporting heavy Democratic
gains from all quarters. The Demo-
cratic majority in the State will hardly
fall short of 15,000. The Democrats
elect all their Congressmen but one,
Gov. Brogden being elected to Con-
gress as a Republican.
Raleigh, Nov. 8.—In the Second
District, the Legislature which elects a
United States Senator, is more than
two-thirds Democratic.
Ohio.
Cincinnati, November 8.—Hamilton
county gives Tilden 696 majority.
Columbus, Nov. 8.—There is great
excitement here over the announcement
that Gov. Hayes is elected. His pri
vate secretary is sending out telegrams
claiming a majority of one for Hayes
in the electoral college. High street in
front of Republican headquarters is
closely packed Willi thousands of peo-
ple. all wild with excitement. In the
midst of the excitement, all efforts to
obtain complete returns have signally
failed. Returns : have only been re-
ceived from 19 counties. It is, how-
ever, concedcd by both State commit-
tees that the Republican majority will
be from 8000 to 10,000.
A RALLY AROUND HAYES.
After hearing the news at Republican
headquarters, a crowd numbering seve-
ral thousand, formed a procession and
marched to Gov. Hayes's residence. In
response to repeated calls. Gov. Hayes,
appeared in the doorway and, after
scores of cheers, spoke as follows: "I
assure you I am obliged for this hearty
demonstration; but, if you will keep
quiet about half a moment, I will say
something to you which I think it id my
duty under the circumstances to say.
While our present advices look favor-
able, we must remember that several
of the States which have been consid-
ered doubtful have a large territory re-
mote from railroad or telegraph com-
munication, and it will naturally take
some time to receive definite returns
from them. Therefore, as thii call is
an earnest of your loyalty to the lie-
publican party an 1 your desire for its
success, if late advices should chaugc
the result from what it is announced at
present, I assure you I shall frequently
recall this visit during the time 1 shall
yet live amonar you with pleasure. I
bid you a kin J good night.
After further cheering, the crowd
dispersed. R. C. McCormick, Secre-
tary of the National Committee, has
just telegraphed Wikoff. Chairman of
the State Republican Committee, that
Louisiana, South Carolina, Wisconsin,
Oregon, California and Florida have all
?one for Hayes, and that North Caro-
lina is uncertain.
Pennsylvania.

ed indicate a Republican majority of

two Republican* Congressmen in the
county. Returns up to 2 p. m. from 141
districts in nineteen counties of the
Western part of the State, not includ-
ing Allegheny county, give a Republi-
can majority of 2938; a Republican
gain of 1378 over the vote of 1875.
Pottsville, Nov. 8.—Rielly is re-
elected to Congress by 100 majority.

Philadelphia, Nov, 8.—9.30 p. m.—
Full returns from 24 counties in this
State, including Philadelphia, show net
Republican gains of 2499. This does not
include Allegheny county.
South Carolina.
Charleston, Nov. 8.—The Demo-
crats have certainly elected Evans in
the Fourth and Aiken in the Third
Districts to Congress. The State is
probably carried for Hampton and for
Tilden by a small majority, but both
claim it. Charleston city gives Hamp-
ton a majority. The result in the State
depends upon the vote of Charleston
county, which has not been ascer-
tained.
Charleston, Nov. 8.—Returns up to
2.15 a. m. give Hampton 7000 majority.
This does not include Charleston
county.
Charleston, Nov. 8.—The official
count of the city of Charleston gives
Hampton 15 majority. The News and
Courier estimates the returns covering
the whole State, exclusive of Charleston
county, give Hampton over 10,000 ma-
jority. That paper doesn't think it
possible that Charleston county gives
more than 5000 Republican majority,
and it considers that the State is safe
for Hampton and also for Tilden, who
it believes will not fall behind Hampton
more than 1000 vote?, and outside esti-
mate. Republicans still claim that
a heavy majority in Charleston county
will overcome "the Democratic gains
and give the State to Hayes and Cham
berlin.
Charleston, Nov. 8, 1 p. m.—Re-
turns from coast precincts come in
slowly. They show a less Republican
majority than was estimated last night.
The Democrats confidently claim Hamp-
ton's election with the entire State
ticket. Tilden is not far behind.
Hampton goes down to the coast with
9000 majority, which will be hard to
overcome. The Republicans claim the
State and the result is still in doubt.
Charleston, Nov. 8.—The Republi-
can and Democratic Committees are
still widely at variance as to the result
in this State. The former claim 8000
for Chamberlain but withhold details
of their estimates. The latter concede
every county unheard from to have
gone according to Republican predic
tion, and yet claim that Hampton is
certainly elected. The dispute will
hardly be settled before to-morrow.
Augusta, Nov. 8.—South Carolina
is still in doubt. Both parties claim
the State. The indications are that
Hayes is elected. It is claimed by Re-
publicans that Chamberlain's majority
in Beaufort, Sumter, Calleton and
Charleston will overcome Hampton's
majority. The Democrats claim
Hampton's election, but say the result
will be very close.
Charleston, Nov. 8.—The News and
Courier's latest estimate gives the State
to Hampton and Tilden by about 3000.
This allows 6000 Republican majority
in Charleston county. The Democrats
have carried the State unless the Re-
publican majority in Charleston county
approximates 10,000.
RIOT AT CHARLESTON.
™A serious riot broke out here about
dusk this evening. Broad street, from
court-house to the postoffice, was crowd
ed with blacks and whites, all excited,
&nd,£lhe blacks much angered at returns
unfavorable to the Republicans, an al-
tercation between Democrats and Re-
publicans was followed by a general
outbreak of the blacks, who were
largely superior in numbers to the
whites, and which opened a general
fire with pistols and rifles upon the
whites, taking complete possession of
the street for a time. The whites soon
rallied and a sharp firing occurred. In-
tense excitement prevailed throughout
the city for some hours. The compa-
nies of United States troops in the city
double-quicked to the scene, dispersed
the crowd, and now have charge of the
streets. Casualities—One negro mor-
tally and eight others seriously wound-
ed. One white, a son of George H.
Walter, prominent cotton merchant,
was killed and some whites wounded.

Wisconsin.
Wilwaukee, Nov. 8.—The county
complete gives a Democratic gain of
518. Democratic gain as far as heard,
1299. The State will be close.
Milwaukee, Nov. 8.—E. W. Keyes,
Chairman of the Republican State Cen-
tral Committee, claims Wisconsin by
from 3000 to 4000 majority; also the
election of Caswell (Rep.) in the Second
Congressional District over Orton. 262
towns and wards give 1601 majority, a
net Democratic gain of 770. Strong
Republican counties are to be heard
from.
Milwaukee, Nov. s.—Complete and
partial returns from 41 counties show
a net Republican gain of 4200 over last
year. This can not be overcome by the
counties to be heard from. The Re-
publican majority in the State will be
fully 3000.
Milwaukee, Nov. 8.—The Congress-
men elected from this State are: Wil-
liams, (Rep.,) Caswell, (Rep.,) Hazleton,
(Rep.) Lynde, (Dem.,) Bragg, (Dem.,)

Pound, (Rep.) Majority for Hayes,

San Francisco, Nov. 8.—The Re-
publican majority in the State will pro-
bably be 5000. The Republicans claim
Nevada by 500 and Oregon by 800 ma-
jority.
San Francisco, Nov. 8.—It is likely
the Republicans elect all four members
of Congress. Twelve of forty-nine
precincts of the city give Hayes 4 ma-
jority. Nothing from the interior,
Oregon or Nevada. The Democrats
are jubilant over the returns from the
East, and Tilden telegraphs Mayor
Bryant that he is elected.
San Francisco, Nov. 8.—Returns
from the city are nearly complete.
Hayes has a small majority. For Con-
gress, Tevis (llep.) has 2500. There
are few additional returns, and none to
effect the general result.
A dispatch from Portland, Oregon,
says the State gives the Republicans a
full majority.
A private dispatch from Virginia
City, Nevada, says Nevada is sure for a
Republican majority.
The latest from Oregon shows a Re-
publican majority of 1000. The Dem-
ocrats now concede the State to Repub-
licans.
San Francisco, Nov. 8.—The ma-
jority of California, partly official re-
turns, estimated at 5000 for Hayes.
Oregon conceded Republican by a
small majority. Scattering returns from
Nevada leave no doubt that the State
has gone Republican by a fair majority.
San Francisco, Nov. 8.—A dispatch
just received from Porland says Oregon
will give 3000 to 5000 Republican ma-
jority.

Washington, Nov. 8.—A Western

claim Florida and Oregon.
New York, Nov. 8.—There was
great excitement about Union Square
to-night, and crowds besieged Demo-
cratic headquarters at Everett House.
Democratic clubs marched down and
cheered before Governor Tilden's house,
Gramercy Park, but Governor was ask-
ed and left word he was fatigued and
proposed to take a few days' rest.
Opinions of the Press.
the " world " in ecstasy.
New York, Nov. 8.—The World this
morning has the following leader:
" Peace on earth to menl Good-will is
the glorious message of this glorious
day I The magnificent victory which
we announce to-day, has been won in-
deed by a great, united and determined
political party, but it has been won by
a party for the salvation of a people. It
brings to the defeated the same bless-
ings which it insures to the victors.
It is the triumph of union over dis-
union, of order and of the law over the
spirits of disorder and of anarchy, of
statesmanship and patriotism over par-
tisan insolence and sectional hate.
" There is not an honest man in the
United States, of whatever creed, what-
ever color, whatever political affilia-
tions, who has not cause this day,
whether he knows it or not, to thank
God for the work which was yesterday
done. In all our past history, no sub-
limer spectacle has been presented to
the world than this. When the armies
ef the Republic, flushed with victory,
melted quietly back into the great
body of the people at the close
of civil war, political philosophers of
all nations stood astonished at the
scene. How much grander is the sight
which we witness to-day of a gigantic
political revolution, planned, begun and
carried out without the firing of a shot
in anger by the simple exertion of the
popular will, working through legiti-
mate forms and traditional spirit of our
free institutions!
" To us who have been part and par-
cel of the work, to the active men of
both political parties, it doubtless seems
a simple and natural thing enough, to
foreign observers and those who come
after us, it will assume its true propor-
tions, and it will stand in history as the
noblest imaginable vindication of the
wisdom and the faith of those great
men who founded our nationality on
the principles regarded in their time as
wild, Utopian and, even in our own
days, dishonored, but too often by the
distrust and contempt of Americans,
unworthy their great heritage of free-
dom."
New York, Nov. 8.—The Herald
says twenty-one States cast majorities
for the Democratic nominees and six
teen for the Republican, one State,
Colorado, having previously cast her
vote for the latter. Thus Gov. Tilden
will be our next President and Thomas
A. Hendricks our next Vice President.
They have received 209 electoral votes,
against 160 cast for Hayes an<f Wm. A.
Wheeler, a clear majority of 49, and 24
more than was necessary for an elec
tion. There is very little chance of
lessening these figures, and none of
changing the result. Our next House
of Representatives will have a Demo
cratic majority of at least 25.
The State of North Carolina was car-
ried by the Democracy by probably
35,000, and the entire State Democratic
ticket was elected by majorities rang-
ing downward from 13,000.
Among the States looked on as doubt-
ful yesterday—Indiana, Connecticut,
New Jersey, and probably Wisconsin
were carried for the Democracy. South
Carolina is in doubt, the vote being
very close, and victory Maimed by both
sides. The negro vote was evidently
divided by the two parties in the South-
ern States.
The Post gives Tilden 184 electoral
votes, with Nevada, Calafornia, Florida,
Louisiana, Oregon and Wisconsin as
doubtful. It says: "Mr. Tilden ap-
pears to be elected President of the
United States."
A Tribune extra just issued says:
"The latest news leaves a bare possi-
bility of Hayes's election. The proba-
bilities are still the other way, but the
Republicans now claim Wisconsin and
California. This leaves Tilden with
one vote short of an election, Hayes 20
short, and the following doubtful
States, from which either must draw
for what he needs: Florida 3, Nebraska
3, Nevada 3, Oregon 3, South Carolina
7. Hayes can not be elected without
all of these. Accurate returns from
them to-day is impossible." —-
Washington, Nov. 8.—The New
York Times and Washington Chronicle
are the only ones of reliable papers that
question Tildsn's election this morning.
as the london tress see it.
London, Nov. 8—The Daily News,
this morning, discussing the presiden-
tial election in the United States, says:
The result can not surprise an attentive
observer of American politics. It can
not cause the reversal of the legislation
of the years immediately succeeding
the war. It is a change rather of men
than measures. The News fears no in-
jury to American credit, and declares
the payment of the National debt in
specie is safe whichever party may be
in power. It bases its generally favor-
able anticipations in a great measure
on the personal antecedents and mod-
eration of Mr. Tilden, who is likely to
exercise a restraining influence on the
extreme section of the Democratic
party, Tt does not as yet see any indi-
cation that the election affects the
question of protective legislation.
Questions relative to the South have
been the deciding forces, the News
thinks, rather than the currency or free
trade problem.
The Stajidard also regards Mr. Til-
den's antecedents as furnishing a good
guarantee of the honesty and modera-
tion of his administration and a security
against inflationism. The Standard con-
gratulates the American people on the
law-abiding spirit displayed through-
out the country, and says the result of
the election is scarcely a greater cause
of congratulation than the fact that so
close a contest, with such a great stake
should have passed without violence
and bloodshed when riots in a few
places might have turned the scale by
intimidation of voters.
The Times elaborately reviews the
difficulty which Mr. Tilden will have to
encounter in consequence of conflicting
majorities in the Senate and House of
Representatives, and also because of
claims of various sections of Democrats
for official patronage. The Times
siders Gov. Tilden's
guarantee against
to the pressure
Democrats in favor
measures, and in any event it is
more obvious there is no danger of his
assenting to measures of inflation or
repudiation. He is too sagacious to
modify his foreign policy for the con-
tentment of Irish Democrats. There is
no ground, whether from a financial or
political point of view, for denying
him the confidence of Englishmen." We
are bound to rcspect the clearly pro-
nounced will of the American people,
and we can not consider it an unmixed
misfortune for the Republicans that
they are temporarily compelled to
breathe the bracing air of opposition."
