The small room in which the candidate's {riends sasembied was crowded to suffocation by uproarious, jubilant electors, who praised and cheered themselves and everybody olre around them. The wards known to have given majorities to Guntber bad representatives present, and theso again and again demanded cheers for their wards, which, they sald, bad broken the “Boole ring,” the Wood ‘*clique,”’ the Mozart and Tammany ‘combination,’ &c , kc.
