VIRGINIA ELECTIONS.
Continued.

1t is at length ascertained that Mr..
Randolph has lost his election, and that
Mr.. Eppes, the son.in-law OF Mr.. Jei-
ferson, and thorough going admins
trstion man, succeeds him. MIR. White
head, the peace candidate in opposition
TO MIR. Newton, has also failed, and Mr..
Newton is again in congress. Il is pref
ty certain that the opposition to Mr..
Basset will be frlitlcss. The strength
Of parties in Virginia as far as ii hssyet
been tried, remains in statu quo. Il the
administration shall gain nothing IN Con-
gross by the result OF the late elections,
it will probably lose nothing. We did
hope, THAT experience would have taught
cur Virginia brethren wisdom. We did
believe, that howeverliable to err under
the strong influence Of party pride, thsy
were not insensible to the dangers that
threaten Thorn from within and from
without-but it seems that neither rea'
soning nor suffering can avert the Gala
mites that await them, nor save all lnia'
tusted people from Themselves.
