It is safe to estimate that ;the Democracy and Independents wjl have at least 212 lleprescmtatives, and the Demoerey ,- a clear working majority over both. In the States of Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas Kentucky, Louisiana, Mary land, Massachusetts, Michigan, Min nesota, Missouri, Nevada, New Jer sey, New York, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia :;ud icoa.-in, there, are in the pres ent C :ig!.-ss 1-19 Padieals and 70 Democrats. Iu the next Congress there will be from these States 112 Democrats and 71. Radicals. North Carolina, Ohio an l Indiana give the latter a clear majority. Tho victory is evrtainly most com plete, ami nothing in the history of politics shows such a revolution and condemnation of the party iu power. The Democrats gain also Governors iu the following States, which have heretofore been umler Padical con trol: Alabama, Massachusetts and New York, while the Democracy have lost none of tho States hereto fore under their control. The Democracy will gain Senators in the following ; States: Indiana, West Virginia, Florida, Pennsylva nia. Tennessee, Texas, Louisiana, Xew York and Missouri. Two of the above have beeji known as Inde- pendents. The present Seriate i- Badicals, !'J Democrats, and the , for granted (which is net so) that Louisiana vacancy.
