TAo Next senate.

Some Republican journals are pub
lishirg estimates of the Radical gain
in the next Senate, which do not in
clude Senator Cornelius Cole in place
of McDougal. of California. Our
gain thus far is four; Cole, in place of
McDougal, as above; Cobnrn, in
place Of Nesmith, OF Oregon; CatteIl,
in place of Stockton, of New Jersey,
and some Radical in place of Cowan,
of Pennsylvania. The election Of
Gen. o. s. Ferry to succeed Foster,
of Connecticut, is also Radical gain.
To offset this, it is possible we may
lose Senator from Maryland. -
Two Radical Senators from Colorado
will also take their seats this winter.
Counting these, the Senate will be po-
liticaIly classified thus:
RepubIicans-41.
Democrats--8.

the matter is worthy the most serious
contemplation:
"We have chronicled, within the
last year, the pardon by President
Johnson OF not less than forty persons
convicted of counterieiting the Nation

know, first, if any person has been
convicted of this crime whom the Pres
ident has not pardoned; secondly, if
any one could counterfeit the National
currency under such circumstances
that the President would not promptly
set him at liberty. Counterfeiting is
the most deliberate and most mschev-
GUS of crimes that do not destroy life.
It's victims are mainly the poor, the
simple, the ignorant. 1t tends TO de-
stroy confidence, and causes incalcula-
Bile suffering and misery. Ard its
