THE ELECTION EL9B WHERE.
SWEEPIN* DBMOORATIO majorities.
It Is seldom that an election as quiet land
undemonstrative la held In Wilmington.
Throughout the whole city there was a Uek
of excitement that usually characterizes
sueh occasions and the light vote polled in
dicates vary little Interest In the prooeedlpg.
There was no wrangling of any accftnn'
about the voting places except, at the Flrit
and Second wards and no arrest* Were made
by the police for HDeal voting or similar
misdemeanors, There was not, ev.it a r«ns
ot to create a ripple ol excitemert of ad im
portation ef re[ie<iSere and the whole day
passed off us quietly as could be Imagined
In the evening people were alike ladlfferent
end careless of the result and apparently
took a Democratic majority as a foregone
conclusion, they stayed at home, or went
to church or to their place* Of bn luces »e
usual aa though It was not the eve alter elec,
tion
In the Becoul ward there Was a disturb
ance caused by the comblnatloa on the part
ef some Democrats to bast the Democratic
candidate for the Levy Court, Jamba L.
Taylor, and favoring t .e Republican cRndl
d*t*. The result wae that Mr. Taylor ran
behind the tick-t 80 votes.
Owing to maliuious litis elruultited con
cerning Mr. D. au be was cut in this city to
a great extent and rsn behind his tlekjn be
two and three hundred votss. Mr. Thomp
son was bensltted by this and ran far ahead
of his eo-eiudidntes. The contest between
But* and Bennett for Coroner was father
closer than expected, bat tha former was
nlectcd by a good majority. The Greesback
