Vote of the Guilford Grays.
A
friend in the company has favored us with the vote of the Grays, for members of
the Legislature from this county. In the
Senate, Peter Adams received 71. In the
Commons, Smith 66, Glenn 66, Sherwood 62, Ragsdale 4, Davis 2, Cunningham 1,
Hunt 1, Stewart 1. The regiment, the Twenty-seventy, were on duty on the day of the
election, and the vote for Governor was small.
Our correspondent gives the result as 244 for Vance, and 55 for Johnston.—Vance’s
majority in the regiment, 189.
P.
S.—Our correspondent omitted to give us the vote for
Sheriff. Mr. Boon, the present
incumbent, we understand received about 70 votes.
