The case of Mesmore and other

Michigan Court, in which said indict-
ment is found, it is proper one in
which the defendant should take
issue against its suficiency.
NEW York, Nov. 6.-The Secre-
tary OF the Treasurer has decided he
has the power to REISSUE any legal ten
der notes that may have been redeem
ed but not cancelled, provided the
amount outstanding does not exceed
$400 100000. This will obviate the
0>cessity of further sales of gold by
th~ Treasury, and enable the Secre
tafy to afford substantial relief to the |
money market. Although opposed |
TO the further issue of currency, he
feels justified in resort'ng to any
legitimate means to relieve the pres

Congregational,

TIE st. Louis Democrat thinks the
returns do not indicate that the Re
publicans lost many members of Con-
gress on Tuesday. Massachusetts,
sends solid delegation, Michigan
does the same, and so does Iowa. In
Minnesota a less of one member is
reported through the Donnelly quar-
rel. Kansas and Nebraska have
aleeted one Republican each, and
Wisconsin, it seems probable, shows
no change. In New Jersey there may
be a loss of one, but it is not certain.
New York, in the present Congress,
has eleven Democratic and twenty
Republican members; the returns
thus far show no change. In Illinois
the election of CULLoM aud HAY is
reported in the two most doubtful
districts, so that we see no reason to
expect any loss. In Missouri the
Third district probably goes against
us as it did two years ago, but nothing
il vet known 10 Indicate the defeat OF
DYER. and VAN HORN may be sue

Massachusetts,, Michigan, Minneso-
ia. Missouri. Nevada, New Jersey,
New York and Rhode Island, elect
Senators, and in all these States ex-
cept New Jersey the Republicans ap
pareutly will have majority in the
Legislators. We lose one Senator in
New jersey, but gain two in Mime
sofa and Wisconsin. The next Con
gress, beyond all possible doubt, will
be about as strongly Republican in
the House as the present, and more
strongly Republican in the Senate.
