we have been repeatedly asked of late. what


o@ an ttt tSS Say, hat we think


that there will be large Democratic majority in
both branches. Previous to the late elections the
Senate stood &c democrats 10 "a whigs.e The
late elections will give us enc additional Senator
from tho States of Tennessee, Virginia, Indiana,
and tho vacancy in Mississippi will certainly Lo
filled by democrat, thus giving US 80 votes 10
81 and Florida has elected two more, making
80; and should Texas, which she undoubtedly
will elect democratic Senators VIC shull have 81,
making clear majority of 10.


In the House of Representatives We had 3d. 10
So whigs,and six Native Americans; and having
gained in Indiana, , in kentucky, in Tonnes.
sec, l3 in Virginia. 6 in Alabama, 3 in North
Carolina, in Florida, and 3 in Maryland, max
ing IN all 1876, and VIC think that we can safely
say that we will elect 3 in Mississippi, making
1875 democrats, to so wings and Native Amer
Icans. This estimate which is founded upon the
recent returas, and tho probable returns, may be
varied from 5 10 in tie House; but the Senate
cannot vary more than one, and in neither case
do We anticipate it, and if il should We have still
large majoritios in both Houses, thereby securing
50 tho administrator the certain passage of the j
important measures that will be recommended to
the next Congress. The ratification Of the An
ncxalion measure, which some doubted, is now Sc.
cured beyond all doubt; tie Senators 10 be elect
cd are all from tho States decidedly in favor of
tile measure.
