"rmou> high figure just rs he was getting
ready to leave port. and therefore instead

Banks seems to be elected to Congress
from Massachusetts. though what IN intel
ligent constituency can hopefully have for
such a politician, is beyond ordinary COM
p~rrhension. He has neither stability,
craftsmanship, nor practical ability. and is
principally conspicuous in Congress for
his fine voice, elegant manners, and gen.
eral uselessness.

Indiana and Ohio have cleared away,
and we are enabled to announce to Oor
readers that the former is Democratic by
