For X^niimnnaT EVEN PINCHHACK ADMITS THE CRUSH ING FACT. * : ‘ New Orleans, Ndv. 11*—Re turns from all except seven parishes, which are estimated, show a demo cratic majority of over 8,000. Ex-Gov. Pinchback, in an interview to-day, said, that if the returns, so for as received, are correct, the dem-s ocrats have certainly carried the state. Chester B. Darrell has been re-elec ted to congress in the 3d district, and J. E Leonard, republican, elected in the 5th district. The other congres sional elections elected democrats. The indications ai e that the demo crats will have a majority of 3 or 4 in the senate and 15 in tho house. The next legislature elects two Uni ted States senators. It was claimed by Col. Packard’s ojjponem, that lie would be behind bis- ticket, but the figures show only a slight difterenc* between (he* votes for Hays and those tqr Packard. , Nbw Orleans, November II.— The Louisiana demoorktic majority is as follows: The democratic nnijitr ivy in fifty-two paris >es heard from is 4,615, and the five counties to hear from; in 1874, gave a democratic ma jority cf 2,883, making a total demo cratic majority of 7,528. An Atlanta firm furnishes ns the following private dispatch: “ Every thing quiet here; no excitement.

Charleston, Nov, II, The offioial majorities in all the comities, compiled from the returns, of the precinct majorities, aregiyen in an extra of jthe N&os and Courier to night, showing 1.46ft niajority .for • Hampton. Iu twelve counties out of the thirty-two ih the State Tilden’s vote was 687 mmind Hampton’s, is believed now that tho vot,e for the electors trill' he very close' indeed* The hoard .of State canvassers at Co- ' lumbia to-night considered the ques tion whether tfhey iiad revisory juris diction over returns. Attorney Gen eral Stone and another member of the board, not candidates for re-elec tion,opposed the claim, and* contend ed that their duty was simply to ag gregate and declare the result re ported to them from the counties^ The rest of the board, however,, voted otherwise, and their decision was against this view. Governor Chamberlain still claims the state for the republicans by from 5,900 to 7,000. Scaling; ItDown. Charleston, Nov. 11.—By the latest corrected official returns, Hampton’s majority is l,484f The full returns indicate that Tilden has fefien much more behind Hampton’s vote-than had been supposed. In 10 out of 82 counties Tilden’s majority is 453 less than Hampton’s. An equal ratio in the remaining 22 coun ties would leave Tilden less than 100 mtrjority iri the Stat». .. ' "THE LATEST-FROM NEW ORLEANS. New Orleans, Nov. 11.—No change in the aspect of affairs. Til den’s majority will be not less than 7,500. Some of the committee sent out have arrived. Others are ex pected to-morrow. THE OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. Washington, Nov. 11.—The New York Herald still considers the result doubtful. Partisan papers continue equally confident in asserting the tri-» umph of their party. A LITTLE ADULATION. The Herald says of Grant’s order: “ He used words which are most hon orable to him, and which accurately express the thoughts of all patriotic men. Gen. Grant has done many wise acts, bnt this is the wisest act of his life. It will do much to reassure the public of both sides and the na tion will thank him for his timely and patriotic words.’’ An Escort for Tilden. Baltimore, October 24.—Sheriff Albert and other prominent politi cians and merchants here, confident of Tilden’s election, have subscribed, a, ftind to send the 5th regiment Mary land National Guard to New York to escort President Tildqn td Washing ton.
