Of about 1000. :,
The result in the Common Co ncil may be con-

Common Council has gone with the Mayor.
This. however, depends upon the 4th, the 9th,
the Sih, and l4th Wards, and perhaps upon the
Independent Ticket in the llib,-of which, IN the
4ih, and the 9th, chances are against us'Iana
there is not much to fa,,er hope in the l4th or
6th The Charter Ticket is not yet canvassed
in a single Ward.
We have been overwhelmed, but not beaten,
and tho Wings of the city will not be the least dis
couraped by this unfortunate result. The World

content with voting once, but has voted over and
over again We have never seen SO much fero-
city and brutality has been displayed at the
Polls.
