commanding in that department. The Com
mcrcidi says:
The order of Major General Stoneman,

familiar with it, were unable to control the
elements Of discord, and to concentrate their

Dances existing in the community.

CONCERNING the troubles of the Fenians

in that city, the New York World says:
The proceedings in the case of John
OMahony, late Head Centre, are still in
progress at the headquarters in Union
Square. The terrible crash in the fortunes
of OMahony, has completely humbled that
august individual and rendered him power
less. His chief supporters are deserving
him in shoals, and in a few days he will
have to face the gathering storm alone and
unsupported. To render the matter worse
there is a division in the organization, and
the factions are now preparing for a fight
for the spoils, one led by OMahony, and the
other by b. Doran Killian, who despite the
disgraceful failure at Eastport, is still as pic
turesque and imposing as ever.

We have underworld TO give our readers
fan and Ineligible reports from the recent
important elections in the great States ofthe
North. As received BY telegraph the gen.
eral reader finds It difficult to figure ont the
general result, and learn precisely how the
case stands. In the following summary, we
think. the true result is stated:
In Pennsylvania, on the Governors vote,
rs COMPARED with the elections Of 1868, '64
and G5. the Radical majority has been re-
ducod. but not materially. In the Congress
sional delegation, the Radicals gain one
In the present Congress it stands fifteen
Radicals 70 nine Conservatives; in the next
n win be sixteen Of the former to eight Of
,be latter. Accurate returns may vary these
figures. but il is not probable.
In Ohio. the Radical majority on the
State ticket is increased BY several thousand
In The Congressional representation, the
Conservatives gain one. Instead Of seven
teen 10 two as in the present Congress the
dedication will stand sixteen Radicals to
three Conservative
In Indiana, the Radical majority on the
General ticket is reduced by several thou
sands. In the Congressional delegation tho
Conservatives gain one. The present repre-
seB,asion is nine Radicals and two CoHserva-
lives in the next Congress il will be eight
Of he former and three Of the latter.
In Iowa, the usual Radical majority i
obtainea on the State ticket and the six
Radical Congressman. the entire representa-
ton. Is reelected.
The municipal election in Baltimore
which has resulted in favor Of the Radical
candidate Cor Mayor, was conducted under
the State law, disfranchising majority Of
f.e community, ana Is no criterion Of the
political complexion Of the community.
