ONE MORE NEEDED South Carolina, Louisiana and Florida to Decide. ALL PBOBABLY DEMOCRATIC. HUT ALL ST ILL CLAIMED HU THE KKFVBLIOASS. Noon Dispatches. New York, Nov. 9.—The Commer cial Advertiser say a the Republicans at their headquarters in Fifth Ave nue Hotel are still confident that Hayes has carried Florida, which is all that is required to secure Hayes' election. Dispatches were received from va rious points in Florida this morning, confirming the claims made that the Republicans had carried the State. The Democrats are quite as confi dent that Tiiden has carried the State. North Carolina is still in doubt, al though the State Is claimed by Til den. Senator Mitchell telegraphs from Oregon that the State is sure for Hayes. The result will not be satisfactori ly settled until North Carolina and Florida are officially heard from. Dispatches, were received in this city at noon to-day, from Gov. Sterns, of Florida, announcing that that State has given 2,000 majority for Hayes. Secretary Chandler has received dispatches from the Southern States, which leave no doubt in his mind of the election of Hayes. Sheriff Jones, of Jacksonville, Fla., telegraphs that State is undoubtedly Rc publ ican. Mr. Motier, Chairman of the Republi can State Committee, send3 telegrams from Tallahassee claiming the State for the Republicans by two thousand. Secretary Chandler answers all enqui ries by stating that the election of Gov. Hayes is considered beyond doubt. Senators Bowen and Sargent, of Cali fornia, have telegraphed that the State is Republican by a large majority. Senator Jones, of Neveda, says that State elects their Republican ticket. From Louisiana two telegrams were re ceived this morning from Adjutant-Gen eral Elliott and Gov. Kellogg "claiming the State by ten thousand. San Francisco, Nov. 9—Dispatches from Virginia City this morning say Ne vada will give one thousand Republican majority. Scattering returns from that State also indicate that result. Returns a'l coming in very slowly in California, The returns thus far received give Hayes fifty-four hundred majority, which additional returns are not likely to vary. For Congress, Davis and Page, Reps., are certainly elected, and Backeco, Rep., is thought to be. elected in the Southern District, running considerably ahead of his ticket. In the Fourth 'District the contest is j, very close and indecisive, and both parties claim the election of their respective candidates for Congress. A dispatch from Portland says the Democrats now concede that Oregon has gone for Hayes by from five to eight hun dred. The Republican State Central Com mittee claim the State by from one to two thousand. Night Dispatches. NORTH CAROLINA. Raleigh, Nov. 9.— Gen. Kilpatrick arrived this evening j from Wash ington. He is now closited with T. B. Keogh, Chairman of ithe Repub- State Committee, aud other Repub licans at the Yarbrough House. It is supposed by the Democrats that his presence in the State is for the purpose of perpetrating frauds upon the election returns. Additional returns from the western part of the State continues .to show Democratic gains. The counties yet to hearjfrom are Democratic, and the majority will certuinly reach quite 15,000. SOUTH CAROLINA. HAMPTON ELECTED. Charleston, Nov. 9.—Complete re turns from Colleton and partial re turns from Charleston county, indi cate that Hampton has carried South Carolina by from 1,700 to 1,900 major ity. The Democrats gain seven Sen ators and thirty-four Representa tives, giving them a 3uro majority of one on joint ballot, securing a Sena tor in place of Robertson. The vote for President is still closer. The Democratic Committee is confident of a small majority for Tiiden. Charleston, Nov. 9.— Nineteen coun ties, all official except four, give a Demo cratic majority of 23,613. Eleven coun ties, from trustworthy reports and some official, give a Republican majority of 14,159. The only two remaining counties are Charleston and Colleton, where before the election, Republicans claimed respect ively from five hundred to six thousand majority. If the result confirms their an ticipations, Hampton’s net majority would be 2J154, aud Tildeu’s probably one thou sand, fifteen per cent. less. The city is in a condition of feverish ex citement to-day. GCOROIA. Atlanta, Nov. 9. — Senator Jones, of Nevada, is here and thinks Nevada will go Democratic. FLORIDA. Savannah, Ga., Nov. 9—2 a. m.—Com munication cut off from Middle and West Florida; railroads and telegraph injured by lightning, A large number of voters were on the trains. Lake City, Oct. B— Returns received up to TO a. m. show Democratic gains, but leave the State in doubt. It is thought an actual count will be necessary to de termine the result. The Democrats esti mate their majority at twenty-five hun dred, and the Republicans their’s at fifteen hundred. New Orleans, Nov. 9.— Dispatches from Florida indicate a Democratic ma jority of twelve hundred. Lake City, Nov, 9.—X :30 p. m,—A steamboat is expected at Palatka this afternoon, bringing returns from the upper St. Johns river coun ties. Both parties still claim the State, and nothing is positively known as to the result in Florida. 1:45 p. m.— Twenty-one counties in Florida give 1.711 Republican major ity. Eighteen counties not heard from, but estimated, based on the election of 1874, gives a Democratic majority of 1,966, which will make the State Democratic by 255. Savannah, Ga., Nov. 9—4.15 p. m.- ■ There is nothing later from Flor ida. Nothing is expected until the arrival of the St. Johns river boat at Pa latka. New York, Nov. 9.— The Wesrern Union Telegraph Company received the following dispatches: Lake City, Nov. 9, 5 P. h.— Further returns from twenty-one counties in Flor ida make a Republican majority of 1,246, with eighteen counties to be beard from, sixteen of which gave a Democratic ma jority in 1874 0f_1,960. At this rate the COLUMBUS, GA., FRIDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 10, 1876. Democratic majority in the State will be about fifteen hundred. New York, Nov. 9. -- The Western Union Bulletin furnished the following: Lake City, Fla., Nov. 9—9:31 p. m.— Key West, Monroe county, gives Tiiden 987, Hayes 988. Republican majority one. Florida, honestly estimated by crats, gives 1,821 majority at the lowest possible figure. No boat yet. a ku-klux cry. f New York, Nov. 9.— Tho National Republican Committee publishes the following: Gov. Stern, of Florida, telegraphs to-day from Tallahassee, Fla., as fol lows : “There is no doubt of our majority in this State, if wo can secure an honest canvass. The indications are that violence is to be freely resorted to to prevent "any returns from re mote points in the interior. “Our special train from Tallahas see last night for the Chattahoochee, to collect returns from the western counties, was ku-kluxed a few miles west of hero and the train thrown from the track, which was torn up and blockaded in several places.” Key West, Nov. 9.— A1l tho pre cincts of Key West give 979 for Tii den and 970 for Hayes. Fort Myers precinct gives 22 for Tiiden and 1 for Hayes. Tho only precinct not heard from will probably cast its en tire vote of about 40 for Tiiden, mak ing a probable Democratic majority in the county of 04. ALABAMA.. Montgomery, Nov. 9.— Enough re turns show at least 35,000 majority for Tiiden, and an unbroken delega tion of Democrats to Congress. Shel ly, Democrat, in the Fourth District, has a handsome majority, Rapier and Haralson, negroes, divide tho Repub lican vote between them. This makes a gain of two Democratic Congress men. Selma, Nov. 9.— Shelly, Democrat, is elected to Congress by 1,017 major ity, beating Haralson, colored, pres ent member. Louisiana; New Orleans, Nov. 9,10:30 a. m.— The Democrats claim the State by 15,000 majority. The estimates are made from returns already received. The Republicans claim that when tho river parishes are heard from, they Will have <IO,OOO majority. The Returning Board\ decides elections ni Louisiana. New York, Nov. 9. —The following ha3 been received from the Republican Headquarters at the Fifth Avenue Hotel: Gov. Kellogg telegraphs as follows: “The returns are even better than we ex pected. Be easy so far as Louisiana Is concerned.” CALIFORNIA. San Francisco, Nov. 9.— Charges of fraud in the election in the city have been freely made by both parties, and considerable excitement pre vails. A conference of leading men of the Democratic and Republican partied was held to-night, and a com mittee of two from each party ap pointed to investigate the charges. The Board of Supervisors have also directed the Finance Committee to make investigations. The vote will be canvassed Monday next. San Francisco, Nov. 9.— Returns from the Interior have been very meagre during the day, and electors of Congressman in the Third* and Fourth District! i8 not decided. A Virginia city dispatch says Hayes’ majority is certainly not less than 1,150. Republican Congress men elected by probably 1,000. KENTUCKY. Louisville, Nov. 9.—Returns from Ninth District indicate the election of Turner, Democrat, to Congress; in which case the entire delegation from this State will be Democratic. Advices from the interior leads to the belief that the majoity in Ken tucky for Tilden will be fully 75,000. , WHOUMIX AND 11,1.1.V01D. New York, Nov. 9.—The World has these specials: Milwaukee, Nov. B.—Nothing but the official canvass can settlo Wiscon sin. Both sides claim it by about 10,000 majority. Chicago, Nov. B. —lllinois shows in forty counties a Democratic gain of 39,000. Tho State is surely Demo cratic. [Signed.] Daniel Cameron, Sec’y Dem. State Committee. Later. Chicago, Nov. 9.—The only ad ditional Congressioim; news is that Tipton, Republican, lias carried the 13th district, making the fourt U lie publicMi gain in the Slate. Sparks, Democrat, lias carried the sixteenth district by a good majority. There is no reasonable foundation for the claim that the Detnocruis have carried Iliiuois. Careful com parisons of returns received with tho highest Democratic vote cast in 1872 indicate 20,000 Republican majority. The gains of Republicans in Congress men exactly reverse tho present, po litical character of t lie Illinois dele gation. .Two of these gains have been made in "Egypt,” the Demo cratic stronghold, and tho Republi cans have gained some members of Legislature also from that section, which would lie au impossibility if the Democrats carried the State. Of the aggregate voto registered, which shows au enormous increase over 1872, tho Democrats got a great er per cent, than in the ratio appar ently of about sixty to forty. Milwaukee, Nov. 9.—Tho Republi cans will have 18 majority in the As sembly and 11 in Senate. The major ity for Hayes in the State will exceed 6,000. ILLINOIS CONGRESSHEN. Chicago, Nov. 8, —The Republicans gaiu five Congressmen in Illinois. The Democrats elect the following: narrison in the Second; llungntc in the Tenth; Knapp in the Eleventh; Springer in the Twelfth; Eden in Fifteenth; Morrison in Seventeenth; Townsend in the Nintccnth, and possibly Sparks in Sixteenth. MINNESOTA.* St. Paul, Nov. 9.— Complete re turns frum 42 counties, and partial returns [from the remaining vote, show that Hayes’ majority in tho State will be about 18,000. The legis lature on joint ballot will be nearly two-thirds Republican. MISSOURI. Missouri, Nov. 9.—Complete re turns from the Third Congressional District give.it to Metcalf, Republi can, by 31 majority. The Democrats claim tho Sixth District for Morgan by 700 majority. The Third District was previously reported as probably for Haven, Republican. The Repub licans carry their county ticket in this county, except for Probate Judge, Public Administrator and As sistant Prosecuting Attorney. Eman uel Thomas leads his ticket for Sher iff by 3,500 majority over Ex-Mayor Brown, and, and the remainder of the Republican candidates have an average majority of 1,500. DAKOTA TERRITORIAL ELECTION Yankton, D. TANARUS., Nov. 9.— -Election returns come in slovyly, but indicate larger Republican majorities than ever given before. Yankton county gives a total vote of 1,407, giving Kid der, Republican, for delegate over Spink, Democrat, a majority of 107. All the county Republican ticket is elected except one. Outside coun ties give Kidder a large majority, which will probably reach 3,000. NEW YORK, New York, Nov. 9. —The excitement to-night on the pinching result of the election was even more intense than on the day of the election. Thousands throng the streets in the neighborhood of the Republican and Democratic headquarters, and each difepatch received favorable for the respective party is received with tre mendous cheering. Gov. tii.den speaks. To-night Gov. Tilden spoke as follows to a large number of persons who col lected in front of his house to congrat ulate him : Fellow-citizens—l thank you for the interest you show in the result of the election. You do not expect me to make a speech to-night, fellow-citizens, I bid you good-niglit. Senator “Randolph spoke as follows to night in front of the Everett House; Fellow-citizens —Of the suspense in which you have„been kept for the past two days, I have now great pleasure in announcing to you that from dis patches received to-day wc know for ceatain that the Democrats have carried the States of South Carolina, Louisiana and Florida.: New Jersey gives a majority of 10,000. I beg of you as a American citizen to remember that tire victory that we have now won is not for the Democrats alone, but for all citizens of the Republic who love truth and justice. Thelblessing of this victory will live through long years of peace to the nation and .prosperity to the people.” New York, Nov. 9.— Governor Til den received the following dispatch this evening from Senator Gordon, of Georgia: Kingston, Ga., Nov. 9,1876. To Hon. S. J. Tilden: With your election comes a union of hearts aswell as of co-equal States. The South will sustain you in every pledge you have made to the Ameri can people. (Signed) J. B.

OREGON. Senator Mitchell telegraphs that Senator Kelley concedes tho State Republican by 800 majority. NEWSPAPER OPINION. New York, Nov. 9.— An Express ex tra says it sees no reason to change tho fact that a majority of tho Elect oral votes are for Tiiden and Hen dricks. This, it says, is the voice of tho people, and nothing can change it but enormous frauds of returning boards, as in Louisiana in 1874. The Congressional Election*. New York, Nov. 9. —The Tribune’s summary of Congressional returns says the Democrats will have half their pres ent majority. [Their majority in the present House is sixty, not counting the Independents on either side. —En.] Washington, Nov. 9 —The best figures give the Demacrats twenty-seven major ity in the next House. This estimate con cedes to the Republicans every reasonably doubtful district. TELEGRAPHIC SUMMARY. Calcutta.— -The district of Backer Gunge wasdestroyed by a cyclone on Tuesday last. A thousand native houses were destroyed. The town of Donlaka was submerged by the waves. Five thousand persons are believed to have perished. Cincinnati, O.— The steamer Ar lington sunk at Cumberland island. No details. Washington.— Secretary Morrill is tho only Cabinet officer here.

Tho favorite, Julia, was not placed. •John Hull Thinking of the Honda. London, Nov. 9.— The Pall Mall Gazette of this afternoon, comment ing on tho Poesidential election in tho United States, says: “We think it is a crazy calumny to assert that Mr. Tiiden, so distinctively a repre sentative of the business men in the Eastern States, will extend any favor to the crude projects of tho inflation ists, or the unintelligent dishonesty of Republicans. Liverpool, Nov. 9.—The Post says the announcement of Mr. Tilden’s election is well received in commer cial circles. WAS IT THE FRANKLIN I New York, Nov. 9. —The bark Nor ma, in latitude 42, longitude 72 West, found a large man-of-war, heading west, apparently in distress. It is supposed to be the Franklin. Turkey and Montenegro. Paris, Nov. 9.— The Temps pub lished a telegram from Vienna, that Montenegro, finding herself incapa ble of raising troops in their position during the armistice, has opened di rect negotiations with the Porte for the prompt conclusion of an armis tice. “Well, you are a nice boy to send on a message,” said a woman to a boy who had lost a bundle with which she had entrusted him. The boy struck the attitude of an orator and replied: “Not being a common carrier, and not having entered into a contract with you to carry your parcel, for and in consideration of any sum, I have incurred no liability, and am liable to no penalty. It 1 had undertaken to carry the parcel for my own particular profit, my father even would not have been re sponsible for the loss (see Butler against Bassing, 2 C. & P., 614,) un less indeed he paid me smaller wages because of the opportunity thus af forded me to take smaller sums. On this point I will only quote Dwight against Brewster, 1 Pickering (MisS.) 50. But. rising from the law to the equity of the case, I have only to say ’ but before be could say it his father had yanked him from the room. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. BI TELEGRAPH TO THE DAILY TIMES.
