Show THE ELECTI9XS. As iiir as lciurn.s have lieeu received, llie elrutions of Tuesday .-how some IloiDociatic gains in the Congressional leleguiion: though not us large was t'Xetel ly the more , sanguine mem-heis mem-heis oi'that party, uwa and Nebraska have, a usual, gum; llepubliean. Jn Ohio the c-hanire seems but light, although al-though the defeat of fselienck may of itself he viewed a considerable J!-pubiiean J!-pubiiean os, and if an indication ni the feeling that exists in the country, manifested in his own district, against the tariff measures of the last session. The colored vote in Ohio undoubtedly affected the result of the election ; and the position taken by leading Democratic Demo-cratic organs in various parts of tjie country, at the opening of the Franco-Prussian Franco-Prussian war, weaned a largo number of German votes f. oui the party, a class of voters that exercise no small influence influ-ence in both Ohio and Pennsylvania. It is difficult yet to say how the latter .State stand-, though the Republicans have most likely lost in Congressmen, to more than counterbalance their increase in-crease of two members in the S;a;e Senate. The State House of Representatives Repre-sentatives remains the same aB before. In Indiana four Democrats have been returned to Congress and four Republicans, Repub-licans, with three districts doubtful. If any of these doubtful districts, or all of them, should have returned Demo crats, it will be so much of a gain in Congressman to that pirty. |
