result. The Commercial Advertiser con-

"By comparing the returns Of votes
already received for Members Of Con

the election Of the Wing candidates by
very handsome majorlties. ! had some
fears about the election fearing that our
friends would not turn OUTPUT think
now there is no doubt Of our entire sue

Other advces from Hartford assure US
that, thai county, and those towns from
both East and West from which they
have heard, have come in better than was
