THE P. O A N O K E NE'S. TfTUHSDAY, NoVKMHUIl ;0 179. Gov Jakvis lias issued his procla matinn appointing Tlmrsd iv the 27th Inst. The President I) m also appointed that day for the sitir.e purpose, Till) !i:iIO U.V Til l'AKTV. Too Democratic party has a wotk to i in xt year, which will require all (if its tale (. t , lime and labor to accom plish. It will have to bend every en ergy to establish the fact that this is a government of the people and Unit the people in It n i to rule. The Ilcpuuliian party is rushing rn tu monarchy in spirit if nut in name; and success tn them in 1SS ii nbuliti hi of all I'cpub can in'ti'uioiis, so r.i r as llmso institu tion interfere w'.tli any c hjett they m:ijr hac in view whether it be to steal or keep in power. The failure of the Democrats will lose them all they have gained during years of troublo and al must bnpe1es tirupglihg. There can be (inly one wiy fur us 1 1 maintain the ground we have gained, and that is, tu be united and keep bo. No party can please each individual number, mid we should be personally dissatisfied, let us not boll and iiupedn the (lent. L.'t us rather pocket our disappointments for the pood of the whole. Anv luke- warmers or obstinacy will not advance our personal wishes, imr suotho our in dividual grievances. Kcry g'nd Demo crat i- willin" to do whatever the party may think best for its success. V have seen euouyii of family quarrels in New York and Virginia to deplore them and strive to avoid them. They are serious, and the consequences may be ruinous. Let us beat the enemy fust and then adjust our own difference if there be any; that some chances might be just we do uot deny, but that they Bre just nmv expedient is very doubtful. At all events there is plenty of time for quarrels inside where there is no evening in front. The convention of the people must maik out the course of the patty and the party must aido by it. Don't stay away from the convention and thea say it didu't do rig.it. l'KOt I IO EtV the State ok Nuktii Caiidi.ina, JCxi'ct'Tivr. 1)i:pai;tmi:nt. 1) authority of law, I, Thomas J. J.ir vis, Governor of North Carolina, do set apait Thursday, Nov. 27, 1877, as a day nf prayer and thanksgiving to Almighty God for the manifold mercies and bless ings lie h is vouchsafe 1 to us during the year now passing away. And in order for its proper observance I request the people on that day to close up their places ol business, and abandon ing all secular pursuits to attend their respective places of Divine worship to return thanks to tho Great Ruler of indi viduals and nations for the peace and tranquility which we have enj yed; for the exemption from pestilence and dis ease which he has given us ; for the kind and friendly relations that have exi'ted among all clashes of our citizens, (or the general and growing prosperity that has pervaded the whole Mat-', and for all His varied blesi'u gs he-ton ed upon us a d to invoke a continuance of 11m watchful care and protection over us duiiig the coming year. And while it will be bt -coming on that (lay to remember the widow and the oiphati. and tin' poor :i needy cvcrytiheiu anmag u-, and to minister to their wants, 1 especially com mend to the piayers und gills of the people the orphans i;i the Asylum at Oxford, who ate uow dependent for a import selelv upon the charity of the people, the S'ale appropriation for that purpose being cut rely exhau.ted.

New Yntk, November 11 Tho re turns from all the siity counties in the Stale, with the exception nf four, have been canvassed by the county turiicrvi tors and sent to the Stale boui J of can vassers ut Albany. The four yet to be heard from, officially, are New Yoik, Kings, Allegheny and Greene. That the entire R publican State tick"t, with the exception i f Mr. S, iule, as State En gineer and Surveyor, is elected, there cau bo no doubt. The maj rities al ready ollicially declared bei ig suiii.'.ieiit to establish that fact without A'b-glieny and Greene, which will still fuither in. crease the Republican vote. The canvass- hs developed the most i gregiom errors on the part i f the inspector in almost every couniy in th S'.ite, win . ther designedly or not, and m ire tricke. ry has been resorted to than at at y general election held for years r I istance, iu West (blester coiirfiy 1 ,GG0 persons voted fir Mr. S ulo for Suae K igineer. iiiste.nl of for 'State Engineer and Surveyor," and the county canvas Hers, in pursuance ol the law regulat ing such matters, have counted them as scattering. Some R puhlicing claim when the returns for We9t Cuestcr conic before the State board to be canvased fiat these votes will be allowed Mr. S.iule, but this is not the case, as tli8 djtie. of the State board urc purely ministerial, and they cannot, like ' the famous reluming boards, go behind the returns. The most reliable figure, show that in round numbers the maj orities for the various candidates will be us follows : Cornell, Republican, Gov ernor, 4'J ."00; II , skins, Republican, Lieutenant Governo-, 1,200; Carr, Republican, Secretary of St-te, 4,500 ; Vtidsiurih, Republican, C.iinptioller, 7.700; Ward, Repu' lican, Attorney General, H (100 ; Wendell, Republican, Treasuier, 4,700 ; Seymour. Democrat, Kogineer and Surveyor, 10,000; Kelln vote, 77,500. The cou ity canvassers met again at the City hull this morning and returned counting tho election returns, heginni' g with the Fourth assembly district. The figures varied very slightly from those already published. The ballots in many cases were not Correctly certified, a' d the inspectors in every i. stance were summoned to rectify the o nissioi s. Judge Wateibnry was to represent the Irvine II,i Democracy. The canva s is going smoothly And quietly. The attendance in the chamber to-day was quite slim. The derelict i'ispectors of the assembly distric's already canvassed appeared in a body at the city hall t day. und were taken to the Governot't room, where the committee on correc ted returns were io session, and there made such corrections of irn gulariues us appeared on the billots. The returns seemed to bo very much muddled. A communication was received from the board nf county canvassers, asking the board to instruct the clerk of the buieau of elections to send them copies of the election returns as filed at police head quarters, the reason given being that the returns forwarded to them are deficient; Albany, N. Y , N iv. 11 Our tables this morning show the following plurali ties: Cornell, .TJ.l 72; lloskins. 1,1 Hi; t'arr, 2,21.'i ; Wadsworth, 7,(i17; Wen dell. 3.2S7; Ward, 7.1'.).). We have yel to hear ullicnlly from the counties o Allegheny, Kings, New Yoik, Ontario and Westchester. (Signed) S. C. Hi'TfliiNS. Albany Morning Kxptess. o . tw e km.ii. r i v .i:m vokk, At last ti e New Yoik Sun has receiv ed the nlliciul returns from fifty of the six'y counties in the .Slate. A close comparison between these and the tin olluial returns from the other ten coun ties indicates that Mr. Iloskins, republi can, for Lieutenant-Governor, has de feated Mr. Claiksm N. I'otter, by about 1,100 mni nty ; that M. Cirr, republi can candidate for Secretary of S.ate, it e'e ted by the simo nmj r ' t v ; that Mr. adswurth, the repul liam candidate for Comptroller, will have an increased majority over that of Mr. lloskins, and that Mr. Ward und Mr. Wendell, rep u'olicans, are also elected as Altrrney- (mreral and I rcasurer. The tuxi .rilv for Horatio Seymour, Jr, democrat, for ogineer a d Surveyor, will be over 10,000. John Kelly's vote is increased over toe previous estimates will reach ; 000. The election of Seymour for Engineer and Surveyor, in spite of the schism in tho democratic party, demonstrates be yond ull quett;ons thai New Yoik issa'e for the democratic presidential candidate next year.
