Amen, the response of the Democrats. Now
mark the result! Alexander Lloyd, Democrat, is elect

MAJORITY, and every other Democratic candidate
the General Ticket has succeeded by majority varying
not much from Mr. Loyd's. The Democrats have also
elected EIGHT out of the TWELVE Aldermen. In
fact they would have carried all for Federal

Democrats have glory enough for one day
| "At this result, the Wings have not the slightest
ground for complaint For, they did all that could
do with extremely popular candidates, and all the APP
planes of cunning and money, abrlcating all kinds OF
stories respecting ruined country. In every ward,
they had two of the three inspectors of the elections
and in the whole three. Under such disadvan-
tageous circumstances, we have glorously triumphcd
and let Democratic brethren every where do as we
have done, and this little victory will prove hut drop
