The New senate.

The first important division in
the new Senate showed that three
Senators, who were elected as
independently hold the balance
between the two parties. While
the seat in South Carolina and
the two seats in Louisiana contin
ne vacant, the Republicans of all
descriptions have a majority of
only five or six !; and when Booth,
Christiancy and Davis of Illinois,
vote with the Democrats, the
Republicans fall into a minority.
Judge Davis will probably incline
pretty generally toward the
Democrats; and Oh the subject
of the admission of the the Sena
tors from South Carolina and
Louisiana, Booth and Christian
cy will be very likely to sustain
those elected by the Hampton
and Nichols Legislatures, unless
they should join in an effort to
throw out both sets of claimants
from Louisiana.
At all events, and however the
three disputed seats may be dis
posed of, the Senate will be SO
evenly balanced that whenever
the three nominally independent
Republicans take sides with the
Democrats, they will place the
regular Republicans in Il minor
ty.
