is smllicicnt for our purpose to show
that if all tho r-ist were Padical, that
the House is Democratic. 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,

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-

Chicago, Nov. 7. A Washington
special says the chances of the vari-
ous prominent gentlemen for tho
Speakership of the next Ixouso are
already being canvassed. General
Banks, Fernando V, ood, S. S. Cox
ami ex-Governor Walker are the per-
sons most l.ronuiv; nt lv mentioned.
Although it is eoieedi-d that the
Democratic majority will prefer a
straight out party man, it is argued
that some compromise maybe made
or understanding arrived at by w hich
Democrats and Conservatives could
unite on ot'ii. uuiks. iiepuoiicans
now concede a Democratic majority
of 7:5 in the next House. "
