Present Democratic majority in remaining 13 States... 4
It is probable that of the 13 States where elec-
tions are yet to be held, Alabama, Georgia, Louisi-
ana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Tex nesse°, Texas,
and Tirginia will elect democratic members ; that
the Kentucky and Maryland delegations will be
largely democratic, while Rhode Island, New
Hampshire, and Connecticut are likely to elect
opposition members. With these facts and proba-
bilities iu view the next House of Representatives
will stand as follows :

Buchanan
Opposition

Buchanan's probable majority 3O
With a democratic majority of 14 in the Senate,
and 30 iu the House, gives Buchanan a fair start
in Congress. Will he be able to manage it ?

The New York Herald says that the official pro-
gramme of the new President, as laid down in his
confidential organ, is, after the admission of Kansas
as, a slave State :
" First—The reduction of the whole of Central America
to, a slaveholding confederacy under General Walker.
" Secondly—A descent from Nicaragua, by Walker,
upon Cuba and the West India islands generally, the re-
establishment of slavery in those islands where it has
been abolished, and the annexation of the whole lot to
the Union.
