Hn MOuddI, una Is NOT hcdTd IRON. IL votes only
40 or 800 MIR. BilluPs the hindmcst on the Con-
IGNITION ticket, went to Mlddlcscx about 80 ahead
ol Judge Upshur, the foremost the Anti Conycn-
ton ticket. We do not believe that Middlesex can
bring up and wo therefore thnl; Mr.. Billurs is
elected, the only name on the Convention ticket
wheso election doubtful. If so, the Delcra-
lion from that District, will bg Tho. T.. Jones and
Col Tho. NJ. Bavy of Accomic, and DIR Calvin
u. Read of Northampton. The Accomac election
was the most important one in the State as upon It
depended, whether the COnventioniss, or the anti
Convoni ionists, should have asccndency in tho
Convention The result has been such az To shed
tintading honour tho noble county of Accom1c
IN March last portion ofthc citizens of THAI County
