some Of the counties which we then lost, we have re-
duced the Wing ma orities in ohcrs-We have increas
ed our strength IN the Legature-But the Wings have
in all probability carried their Governor and Lieutenant
Goyernor-They have obtained decided majority in the
Lecsature-but Inst Correspondent predicted
