Inc Jackson prints gave up Louisiana for some
weeks after the late eection-lhe results beng too
deciSiVe 10 be questioned. An article in the Alta
kapns Gazette, has revived their spirits. and suppl
ed them with the materials of dspualion. This ar
t'ce afilrms that the Gubernatorial election did not
turn on national politics, and that two thirds of the
Legislature elect, are Jackson men
Ihe New Oeleans Argus Of Aug 6, taxes the
Attakapas Gazette with its want Of candor-says
That If the Gnbernatoral election did not turn on
national politics. it was not the fault ~ the Gazette
and It's party, who called upon the people to make it
party quesion-that the friends Of Roman acting
on the defensive have gained the yictory-and that
they "have no misgivings in trusting the election
OF Mr.. Johnston to what the Gazette calls Jack
SON Legislature"
The good scnse and moderation of this reasoning

LATEST FROM KENTUCKY.

The Louisville Focus Extra, of the 18th, contains
complete returns from all but two counties. We
condensc its statements from the Baltimore Patriot,
Considering how much was lost by misnla cement
in different counties-that there was no general or
ganiZailon, and general wish the part of the
friends of Clay to let the elections take their course
uninuenced by the next Prestdency--that moreover,
the majority if small, is decided-there is ample
tucky-but we knew that even a constructive defeat
there, would be handled industrously and infinitely
ma gnfed
The Louisville Pocus-Extra, of the 18th inst
which we received this morning, contains returns
deemed correct, from all the counties except Allen
and DaViess. From these it appears that in the popu
lar branch of the Legislature the friends of Mr. ia
have elected SIS and the Jacksones 4S In Alien the
member elect is claimed by both parties (H,. is pro
badly non-committal) And in Daviess as already
mentioned, there was tie, and another election to
