Great Victory in Louisville. The city election in
Louisville, Ky, was held on the 9th OF April, and
resulted in glorious American triumph.
The Louisville Journal of the Sth, says
"Onee more we have met the enemy and they
are ours The election in this city on Saturday
was another brilliant American triumph, as every
election here will be, so long as the American par
ty remains true to itself and its patriotic princi
pies All the American candidates were elected,
IN euery district and scard IN the city, by larger ma
iorties than have ever been given in Louisville to
the candidates of any political party
"The aggregate vote polled in the city on Satur
day was 1886 of which 1888 were cast for the
American candidates The American vote is more
than three times greater than that of the Sag
NIGHTS Not more than one-half of the American
vote of the city was polled. The Americans only
sought to poll enough votes to make the election of
their candidates perfectly certain.
The American majority in Louisville is 1880
in the aggregate. That will do for the present
1t will be l,500 in November"
Election IN Connecticut. The popular vote in
in this State with all the returns in but those from
Hartland is--lngham, $1,000; Minor, 1884 !;
Wells G,S15; and lockwood, l,l23. The whole
vote is over 10000 larger than last year
The Senate is thirteen opposition to eight Demo
Gratis, giving Cutler to the Americans who appears
to be elected by one majority.
1t will be seen by the above statement that the
" Republican y vote in Connecticut is about one
fourth of the American vote-Minor being the
American and Wells the " Republican" candidate.
In Rhode Island an equal, if not greater dspro-
portion exists between the - Republicans :" and the
Americans. In Massachusetts, there is similar
dispositions as shown at the late election
These facts prove undeniably that Americanism
in at least three of the England States is para
mount to Republicanism,"
The Washington Organ, of April 18th, says -
GAS there has been considerable boasting on the
part of the unterrifed Democracy to the results
of the late charter elections in Milwaukee and st.
Louis it is well to refer these gentlemen to the
number of population, native and foreign, and the
number of votes in those cities.
Population of the city of Milwaukee -
Native .... ........9 isl Foreign. ........ AZ, ,7S2
Legal votes ..... l,026 Legal votes. ......6,ll
Population of St. Louis =
Native ...... .36529 Foreign. ........ 3S, ,597
Legal votes ...... 50lS Legal votes. ...... $685.
1t is very astonishing that the foreign or Demo-
cratic party should have the majority.
