e2 a conaac &c.--Thc county of Mddlesex voted
On Monday, and is not heard from. 1t votes only
-1@S or 100 Mr.. Bilups, the hpdmost on the Con-
vsntion ticket, wet to Mddlesex about 80 ahead
OF Judge Upshur, the foremost ON the Anti Convcn-
tion ticket. We donot believe that Middescx can
bring UP, and we therefore think Mr.. Biluns is
eiected, the only name on the Convention ticket
whose election was doubtful. If so, the Delega-
ton from that District, will be Tho. R. Jones and
Col: Tho. NJ. Bayly of Acconac, and DR. Calvin
u. Read of Northampton. The Accomac election
was the most important one in the State as uDon il
depended, whether the ConveDtionists, or the Anti
Convcntlonists, should have an ascent!ency in the
convention. The result has been such as to shed
anfad'ng honour on the noble county Of Accomac
ID Mafch Inst portion ofthe citizens Of thnt County
met at Belihavcn, and nominated Richard Coke IT.
TOR Congress, COL Jno &. Joynes for the State SEN
hte, and Tho. r. Joynes. Tho H. Bayly, Or. G. Ii.
Head, and Humphrey Billnps for the Convention,
and eoery noniaatsos has succeeded, provided Mr..
Biitups Is not beaten in Mddlesex. This shows the
eject OF unanitnlty and eXerton.
The remaining Districts of Ellington and kenav,-
IA, are not heard from finally.
