Linn County Election.—The official vote of Linn county shows that 2,236 votes were polled: that Seymour received 1230, and Grant 1006, which is precisely the number of votes cast for Logan last June. It will be seen that the Democratic majority is 224—a falling off of the Democratic majority of last June of 72 votes. We have already heard of thirty-five or forty Democrats who did not vote—how many more there may be time will tell. We feel confident that Linn county is as thoroughly Democratic as ever, and that she will give a good report of herself at the next election.
