turn of the following :—Crescent Ward, Mr. Thomas John-
ston, painter, and Mr. James Parrott, gentleman ; St. John's

NORTHAMPTON, Thursday Evening.—The revolution in the
municipal affairs of our borough, commenced three years ago,
has to-day been completed, and, for the first time, the Tories
have obtained by popular election a majority in our Town
Council. Yesterday, our corporation was composed of seven
Liberal councillors, six Liberal alderman, and eleven Tory
councillors, giving the Liberals a majority of two. Of the six
councillors who were to retire, four were Liberals and two
Tories. To-day, the wards have returned ive Tories and one
Liberal, so that the council is thus constituted : Liberal
councillors, 4; Liberal aldermen, 6 k Tory councillors, 14 ;
working Tory majority, 4. The majorities of the winning
candidates are large in all the wards. The Tories intend to
restore at once all the civic state which was superseded twenty
years ago.
