result would be certain for the Democratic
candidatess But while the voters here, rep
resenting the Conservatism, the commerce,
share of the capital, have done well--far
better, indeed, than was expected--some
maIlgn influence has worked adversely In
the interior of the State. at.,f 7i

The Meteoric Show, it seems, according
to the best authorities, is to take place be-
tween two days-that is-between the 18th

prised if the meteoric show-men should
give the public slip in the same way.
