been performed Those who thought the past victories
and comfortable maortes would insure their success
regret their want OF activity. In Ward In Con-

index OF many sections where the Republicans were
not alive 10 the issues they were last year.
Dispatches from LittetOn and Haverhll, both strong

claim three of the FIVE Councillor Districts. The RepuD

Democratic The latest estimates Of the Republicans

NAssUA, n. H., March 1.-THE Republicans have car
red the city by reduced majority, Pike receiving 95S
and Weston $685. Tie friends OF Gen. Stevens fee sore
over hs defeat. 1t was known that the district was
close but small majority in his favor was anticipated.
He WAS defeated by Republicans who worked against
him There were many who attended the Nominating
Convention who believed in rotation and did not ABIDE
by the result Of the Convention claiming that the General
was not squarely nominated charge his friends refute'
however. There men IN half the towns who nave
worked hard against him. The angry rotauonists were
rr9urored by disappointed Oce-seckeTs who were very
bitter against Gen Stevens. Regular Republican tokes'
with Bells name substituted for sevenss, were orcu-
lated through the district and many Republicans dis
tributed them. There we're few Prohibiionists who
voted against him In Concord, four prominent clergy
men, Republicans marched to the polls and voted against
Stevens Bell and all these influences combined to de-
feat him.
The vote IN lOs towns foots up follows Pike lci5;
Weston 16s2l Cooper geo; Comins and scattering lOj
Republican net loss 1857. The by towns is as fol-
lOWR.
