The NexiNOnKress.

A few days ago we gave the supPosoo
probable complexion of the United
States Senate in the forty-seveuth Con
gress, which looked decidedly favorable
to the Republicans. The outlook for
the Republicans gaining complete con
troll of the House Of Representatives is
no less promising. The Washington
"Star," which has given the question
considerable attention points out
how this changei is to be made. Ohio,
it says, now has nine Republicans and
eleven Democrats. In the next Con-
gress she will have fifteen Republicans
sure, and chance for the sixteenth.
This will he gain Of six to start with.
The two Iowa Greenbackers, Weaver
and Gillette, will he superseded by Re-
publicans. De La Matyr will be retired
in Indiana, and possibly also New.
(Dsmvrat.) A Republican gain oftwo;
and possibly three is expected in North
Carolina, and gain Of two each in New
York and Pennsylvania are confidently
anticipated. Ladd and Murch, the Maine
"accdentals, will not grace the next
House, while the Third Wisconsin, the
Second Come cticut, and the Thirteenth
Illinois districts are almost certain to
be changed. Oregon will probably send
a Republican in place of Whitaker,
and Vermont one instead of Barlow,
and there are even chances for a gain
in the First and Tenth districts of Ten
nessee. The present outlook is that the
Republicans will gain twelve members
sure, with excellent prospects in as
many more districts. On a strict di'
vision of party lines the present Demo-
cratic majority is not very pronounced; I;
but the Republican opposition, inclnd-
ing the rseubackers, aggregates four
teen or fifteen. In esidential year
the vote is always heaviest, and in an
exciting campaign, such as that Of 1880
is certain to be, the overthrow Of the
Democratic majority in the House may
be far more sweeping than these figures
indicate. Thoughtful Democrats con.
eede that the chances Of their retaining
power beyond the close of the present
Congress are gloomy indeed.
