indicate that the radical majority in the
city will be two thousand over the COM
bination of copperheads and conserva-

majority of 25O. Upton gives a con-
sentative majority of 6. A despatch
from Jefferson City says that Cole county

sweep of everything in Boston. The
complete vote for Governor foots MP:
Andrew 1921, Payne 1904; the Repub-
lican gain on the vote of last year is
1000. II is doubtful whether the oppo-
sition have elected more than six mem :
bers to the Legislature, and they will
probably not elect a single Senator.
Last year the opposition vote was o.
600, now IL will hardly reach 10000
Outside of Boston, we do not hear of the
election of a single opposition Represen-
tative. IL is believed that the Senate
