THE ELECTION IN THIS CITY.

The result of the contest yesterday was the
election of the entire Conservative ticket with
the exception of the Mayor and the 4th Ward
ticket w. n Berkeley the Radical candidate
for Mayor, was elected by majority OF eighty
seven. 1t is due to the Conservative party to
say, that in the election for Mayor, there were
dissentients from the nomination for that Office,
and while the great majority OF them voted Tor
the nominee, there were some who did not.
With division in the ranks. Mr.. Latham failed
to secure an election. A united action would
have made a different result When the
Radical presses and politicians therefore,
herald the Mayors election as triumph, let
this fact be noted 10 explanation. Notwith-
standing, Mr.. Latham received strong vote.
The interest in the election which seemed to
fag during the day renewed towards night, and
after dark manifested itself III the collection OF
large crowds in the nelghborhood OF the polls,
where the ballots were briug counted, and in
and near the Gazette Office, where the returns
we're received as soon as announced. These
crowds discussed the incidents of the day and
the probable result Of the contest in an excited
manner, aud betting was INDUCED in freely.
The first ward heard from at the Gazette Office
was the I'd, aud the news from that ut orce
threw dampcr over the hopes OF MIR. Latham 5
friends, for he only received majority OF
thirty-one there when it wasexpected he would
receive one hundred. The returns from the
4th Ward came in soon after, about eleven
clock, and that by no means tended to relu-
spirit them, for the Radical majority there was
one hundred and eight-fve Then came the
lst Ward with its usual Conservative majority
cut down to ftty-niue. There was now. ninety
FIVE majority against them, and the only hope
left was in the Sd Ward, where it was SAID,
Latham would receive a large majority, as
eighty-four Conservative voters had been trans
ferred to that ward from the 18th. But no news
came, until twelve o'clock, when 1t was an,
nounced that on the straight tickets IN that ward
Latham was sixty five ahead, and that there
were two hundred scratched tickets yet to be
counted Some few seemed to derive coDsolatlon
from this because in the I'd Ward Berk ley had
led Latham on the straight tickets. but the
scratched tickets had given the latter majority
of thirty oue At two o'clock. however. the
full returns from the ward, with the majority
reduced to eight, were received, the result was
definitely known and the crowd dispersed.
The following is copy of the official vote.
1t will be seen there was very slight vote
polled on the question of repeating the interest
clause Of the Constitution. The fact is that
but little interest was taken in the question. dis
hardly any body in the city has any money to
lend and since the repeal of the Funding bill
nobody out of the State will lend money here
at any rate ofinterest.
