Washington, October 9. — Returns from Ohio to-night will be oompared with the vote for Barnes and Bell a year ago. DAY PLEA8ANT. Columbus, Ohio, October 9.—The day has been pleasant throughout the State, which is usually considered favorable to the Republicans, hut the fair weather is offset by apathy, and the withdrawal of Republican votes to workingmen's and greenhsok tickets. Returns coming in slowly indicate Democratic gains. In the compilation of the vote no account is taken of the greenback or workingmen’s vote, although the latter are said to have polled a heavy vote in Hamilton county. Comparisons as to Democratic or Repub lican gains will be made with the vote for Beoretary of State in October, 1876. DEMOCRATIC GAIN. Columbus, October 9.—Returns from seventy voting preoinots, scattering throughout the State, but not including many from cities, show a Democratic gain of 1,700. GONE DEMOCRATIC. Washington, October 9.—Private dis patches indioate that Ohio has gone Dem ocratic. DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY 10,000. Washington, October 9.—Private dis patches say Ohio is Democratio from 10,- 000 to 16,000. TOLEDO RETURNS—MIXED TICKET EEECTED, Toledo, Ootober 9.—The election has been light. The vote is probably twenty per cent, less than last year. The N ational party developed unlooked for strength and claimed the election of a portion of their oounty ticket. Specula tions in various political oireles at an early honr to-night, is to the effect that the Republicans have elected their Treas urer, Recorder and one Representative, with the remainder of the ticket divided between the Demoorats and Nationals, Much scratching has been indulged in by all parties, and reliable figures are unob tainable until late hours. GEN. EWING CONCEDES THE STATE TO THE DEMOORATS. Washington, Ootober 9.—-Gen. Ewing telegraphs one-tenth of the State gives a Democratio gain of over 3,000. No doubt they have carried the State ticket and the Legislature, independent of Hamilton oonnty, which is supposed to be ours. INDICATED DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY 30,000. Columbus, O., October 9.—At 11:30 p. M. returns were received from 266 pre cinets, including some from nearly every portion of the State. The net Demo eratio gain in these is 4,188, indicating Democratio gain of 30,000, .and the elec tion of Bishop (Democrat) for Governor by 26,000 majority. DEMOCRATS CARRY HAMILTON OOUNTY, Cincinnati, October 9.—At this hour returns have been reoeived from but 24 out of 127 precincts in Hamilton oonnty, These give Bishop 2,364; West 2,034 Bond (Workingmen) 1,607. The Demo orats have probably elected their entire oonnty and legislative ticket. REPUBLICANS CONCEDE THE STATE BY 10, 000—THEIR REASONS. Columbus, Ootober 9, 1 a. m. — The Democratic Committee claims the elec tion of Bishop by from 10,000 to 26,000, and also a majority in both branches of the General Assembly. The Republican Committee concedes Bishop’s election by over 10,000 but are in doubt about the Assembly. There is no basis for computing the number of votes cast by the two working parties, but it is supposed to be considerable, as it is claimed that they cast 10,000 votes in Hamilton county alone. It will be noticed that Democratio gains came largely from Republic strongholds in the western reserve. In one township near Oberlin the Democrats gained 326 votes. The Republican Committee, in giving the reasou for this falling off in tbeir votes, say it is caused by the Republican! who abstained from voting, they intend' ing in this way to show their dissatisfao tion with the President.

Paris, Ootober 9. —The great Repub lican meeting passed off without any dis turbance. Iu his speech, M. Gambetta said the existence of universal suffrage was at stake, and pointed out the danger whioh that institution would incur, if, af ter having at the last elections pronounced in favor of the Re public, it should now give itself the lie iu consequence of governmental pres sure. In that ease the public peace would be compromised, for universal suffrage waR it own defence. Its fall would in volve the decadonoe and death of the country. M. Gambetta eulogized M. Grevy as the man best fitted for continuing the work, of ooncord, conciliation and respect for the law. He disclaimed any desire for power for himself, and concluded his speech with a violent attack on the cleri cals, who ho said excited the fears of Eu- rope by the presence of an anti-Repabli- can coalition.

COTTON. Report* or tlie Exchange* lor Sep tember. REPORT OF GALVESTON EXCHANGE—TEXAS 25 PER CENT. DECREASE. Galveston, Oot. 9.—The cotton ex* change crop report is as follows : The character of the weathor since Sep tember 1st has been favorable in 64 coun ties and unfavorable in 7; the effect of tho weather has been good in 64 counties; bad in 7. There has been no additional damage to the crop by worms since the last report. Picking is progressing rnpidly; one- half the crop is already picked ; yield compared with laRt year points to a de crease of at least 25 per oent.. REPORT OF SAVANNAH EXCHANGE —LESS YIELD. Savannah, Ootober 9.—Ninety* three replies from fifty-five oouuties in the ear ly part of the month report the weather as dry and warm, the balance rainy, with a heavy wind storm for three days, 18th, 19th and 20th ult.; in the southwest por- tion of the State tho wet season caused, in some sections, a new growth, but it is two late for any benefit to bo derived therefrom; little or no duinage from worms, hat the rain and wind injured tho quality, and portions of the cotton open in the fields have been beaten out and destroyed. The principal complaint seems to he from rust. This is very gouerul over the State. Picking progressed rap idly up to the middle of month, but since progress has been been made. All the replies indicate that we must expect a less yield than last year. Iu some sec tions the plant is in no condition to make any more, while in others it is growing well and makiug every day. On such crops so much depends upon the imme diate season that is ahead of us and the time thAfc a killing frost appears, that no oorreot or even^au approximate per ceut- age of decrease as compared with last year can be given in this report. Florida—Fifteen per oent. decrease— Twentyr-five replies from thirteen coun ties. The last fifteen days incessant rains, accompanied by high winds have prevented the gathering of the crop. Mach has been beaten out aud destroyed, and the quality of that open and remain ing in the fields a is much injured. The rainy season has had the effect of causiug the plant to take a second growth, and throw off fruit to bring forward the worm and to increase the rust. A month ago there was a fine prospect this State, and a much larger yield than last year was looked for. The damage now from worms, rust and storms is estimated at 15 to 20 per oent. Farmers had to make good progress up to the date the storms commenced. During the wet weather work was suspended und much of the oottou open in the fields during that bad spell has b<*m lost. It is difficult at this time to estimate either the yield or how the yield of this crop will compare with the last. The seasons up to the middle of September were more favorable than tho last, and with a larger aoreage, and there was a prospect of gathering a larger crop than the last. It is fair to estimate that with good weathor the balance of the season that the yield of this State will not fall below that of last year. NORFOLK EXCHANGE—DEGREASE 25 TO 40 PER CENT.

Special to Enquirer-Sun.] The Tribunes speoial dispatch from Fort Beuton, Montana, dated Ootober 5th, says the scout who brought the re port of the late fight between Joseph’s band and United States troops, stated Joseph was a prisoner in Miles’ hands, but was exchanged for Lieutenant Jerome, second cavalry, who had been oaptured by the Indians. The story needs oonfirma- tion. Hendrick* Arrived. New York, Ootober 9.—Among the passengers by the Boshnia are ex-Gov- eruor aud Mrs. Thomas A. Hendricks. Norfolk, Ootober 9.—Thirty replies from 18 counties iu North Carolina and Virginia have been reoeived. All the re plies rerort the weather during September very rainy rnd stormy to the injury of the plant. Considerable damage i# reported, owing to the reoent storms, some from rust and rot, very little injury, if any, from worms. Progress of picking is much retarded, being from ten to tweivo days behind last year, owing to recent bad weather. The yield this year will be on an average about 175 to 200 pounds of lint cotton to the acre as compared with last year. The yield is considered by a few to be about the SAmo, or perhaps a little better, while tho majority of replies report a deoaease in yield from 25 to 40 per oent. NEW ORLEANS COTTON EXCHANGE—YIEID 25 PER OENT. LESS. New Orleans, Ootober 9.—Louisiana— From 32 parishes have recoived 62 re plies, of average date September 30. They report the weather during tho present month as universally unfavorable from too much rain, causing tho plant to shed its bolls. The damage is reported from storms, rust and rot, and in some parishes from worms. The estimated injury is about 31 per cent. Picking is progress ing finely, and the yield, as compared with last year, is reported to bo at least 25 per oent. less. MISSISSIPPI—SHORT 10 PER CENT. I Seventy-seven reports from thirty-one counties, dated from September 3d to Ootober 4th. Too much rain is reported in the early part of September. The lat ter part of tho month the weather has been dry and more favorable to plants. Considerable damage is reported in a large portion of tho Stato from worms, rust and storms, whilst in a few sections no damage has beeu done. Picking is progressing slowly, and tho yield, in com parison with last year, will fall short about 10 per cent. ARKANSAS — FAVORABLY WITH LAST YEAR. Received 33 answers from 23 counties, average date September 30. Except in a few sections, where there were heavy rains in the early portion of the month, the weather during September is reported favorably, and in consequence tho effoct was good to the plant. Many complaints of rust, shedding and worms, but the damage from these causes does not appear to exoeed 3 per cent. Picking is pro gressing rapidly, aud yields compare favorably with last year. CHARLESTON EXCHANGE—FALLING OFF THIBn TEEN FEU CENT. Charleston, October 9.—Tho report is based upon 83 replies from 30 counties. The weather is reported most of tho month as being wot aud stormy. The ef- feot upon the plant was to retard the ma turing of the top orop where it had not been destroyed by previous drouth. There has been little or no damage by storms in upland cotton, but rust, rot ond storms have injured the crop very seri ously, both in quantity and quality, beat- ing oat cotton that was open, damaging the staple. Picking is reported n* making good progress by 30, who state that from a quarter to half of the orop is gathered, and very backward by 51, wet weather interfering. The estimates of the yield vary from 100 to 200 pounds of lint per aore, the average being 156 pounds. Niue report the yield more than last yoar and 74 less—from 5 to 50 per cent. The average of the State being 13 per cent, below last year. AN ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF “SCALING” —HOW THE FLAN IS RECEIVED. The Universal Life Insuraneo Com pany has issued an address to its policy holders, accompanied by a contract for them to sign agreeing to cut down the face of their policies. The addross sets forth that the Superintendent of Insur ance deemed it his duty to report the company insolvent, und a motion was made to appoint a receiver, and a referee was appointed to take testimony as to the facts. Ou the 14th of September “a pe tition of a largo number of policy- holders” was presented asking for u suspension of tho proceedings in order that the com pany might rnuko some adjustment of its affairs, and avoid a receivership. The address then explains the difference of opinion whioh exists botwoeu tho com pany aud the superintendent in regard to tho value of the assets, and insists that real estate which cost tho company more than it would realize at this time should not bo valued upon a present cash busis. If a receiver should bo appointed extra ordinary litigation and costs and expenHos would follow. In ouler to avoid this the oompany makes the following pioposi tion : You to releaso to tho company one- half of your policy, and—except on paid up policies—pay only one- half of prosont premiums ; all the assets of tho company over and above its liabilities to be annu ally applied to the restoration of all poli cies to their original condition—the stock holders to have no profits, not oven inter est on their stock, until all policies are thus restored.” Following the above proposition come a number of persuasive “points,” eudiug with the following: Fourth—From the articles entitled “Life Insurance Assets and 1 labilities" which wo send you, you will seo that there can be no doubt as to the realization by the oompany of a large surplus with whioh to restore, in the way proposed, to each as sured all that he shall release ; and you will also see from the articles entitled “Receiverships” the full nature of tho ca lamities we are striving to uvoid. Fifth—Policy-holders will, in fact, be as well off by the adoption of tho plan proposed as though wo should succeed, after a tedious ooutest, in having tho oompany judicially declared solvent, so all the assets will be retained by the oom pany, aud the expenses of a lengthy liti gation will be saved Sixth—The stockholders will have no interest, of uny name or nature, in- any profits until the policy-holders are made whole as proposed ; aud, of course they will never realize anything, in interest or otherwise—although they have paid into the company $200,000 in cash—unless the company should suoceed in fully re storing policy-holders’ interests as pro- i posed. 1 This proposition has the approval of the Superintendent of the Insurance De partment, the Attorney Geuoral aud the oourt. The above address is supplemented by a long oontraot for the assured to sign, agreeing to a reduction of one-half of tho amount of the policy. A part of the con sideration for doing so is a reduction of one-half of the premium. The stock holders also agree that one-half of tho profits of every nature hereafter accruing shall be annually divided among the poli cyholders, until such dividends shall have increased the nmouuts of the several policies to the figure prior to tho reduc tion. In case any dividends shall bo paid to tho stockholders of said oompany be fore all the policies are restored, tho agreement is to be null and void. The above propositions havo not been, thus far, responded to favorably. The policy-holders doom a change of manage ment quite as desirable as tho cutting down of 60 per cont. of their policies.— N.
