Marvellous Sensation Combination.
THE ELECTIoN IN THE CITY.

day between the people of this city from
the uprising Of the sun to the going down
thereof did not, unhappily, result as we
had confidently hoped and believed it
would, in the supremacy of Republican men
and measures. In short, we met the ene-
my but they are not ours, by good deal
on the contrary, quite the reverse. The
/ melancholy exhibit made here will be
found in the resume Of the result appended.
"What are you going to do about it?"
ask hundreds. Why, pick our flints and
try again. Mayhap somebody blundered;
others may have been lukewarru,
and some undoubtedly were
backward in coming forward at the
critical period. These recalcitrant brethren,
if such exist, must be talked to, reasoned
with, and snatched as brands from the
ocean Of indifference into which they have
upconsciously drifted. In word, we can
never say die, and must pick our fnts and
try again. It will be seen by the summary
| Of results here that while the Republican
party cast its average vote that of the
4 Conservatives is exceptionally large, be-
1 tokening that the latter acted on the old
motto Of voting early and often. While
the repeater enjoys his ill-gotten gains to-
day, let us not be cast down, but resolve
| to use double diligence in the future.
The following is the unofficial count of
