battlefield SO far as it relates to the proba
bic complexion Of the next House of Rep
rescntatives- the conclusion of which is,
that the Democrats will secure majority
IN that body. synopsis Of the Stn'S
article may be interesting.
As at present constituted, the House
consists OF 241 members, of which number
the Radicals have 1872 and The Democrats
70, giving the former q majority of 50.
To change this majority, the Democrats
therefore must not only hold on to what
they have already, but also wrest ~ dis
tricts from tho Radicals. The Smt calcu-
iates that the Democrats, by the operation
of the Fifteenth Amendment, stand q fair
chance to lose at least three of the follow
ing six close districts, viz: Adams, in
Kentucky. who only had 1872 majority
HammiIls, in Maryland, with only 59t
majority Voorhees,, IL Indiana, 129 ma
iority Wells. II Missouri, with Isl ma
iority Strador's, il Ohio, 211 majority
and Readings il Pennsylvania only II
majority. Il they do lose three of these
districts, CT course they must carry 4:
Radical districts to win the fight The
4Slul thinks they Will do it, securing So @
the number IN The North and West, ant
10 at the South.

oaIy had 5G3 majority last election; Strong
in Connecticut, who only had 735 MAORI

In New York tho San is confident til
Radicals will lose eight districts.
In New Jersey Hill (RadicaD is almos
sure to lose his election, as ho had only Z
majority at the last election.
In Pennsylvania the Sun sets down tn
Radical loss at seven members, naming
districts where the majoritios, last cleo
ton, ranged from 200 to 1000.
In Ohio it credits the Radicals with
similar loss OF seven, naming district:
where the last Radical majority ranged
from 100 to 900.
In Indiana the Radicals are set down a.
sure to lose two members, at least, anC
possibly five in Illinois, one in Michi
gan one in Nevada, one; and Wisconsin
one-making in all, 35 members gained
