THE ELECTIONS:

From Kentucky we have no information to be
relied upon, additional to what.we have spread
before our readers, except the following:
Henry Daniel has been reelected, by major.
ity of els votes, over Amos Davis, the Clay can
didate. In his district Gen. Jackson's majority
over MIR. Adams, at the last Presidential cleo
ton was 1900 votes. Supposed gain of the Clay
party, 1000.
It's probable that the representation in Con-
gress will be equally divided-but it will be dis
covered when the whole is returned, that the ma
jorities in the Clay districts combined, will dou-
bic those of the Jackson districts.
Mr.. Letcher is elected over his opponent, by
from 500 to 400 votes, (both for Clay.)
In Madison county, Clay candidates received
upwards Of 400 votes for the Legislature, while
the Jackson Candidate received 90 votes only
"a wonderful decline. formerly they were
600 to 700 strong.
From Indiana, we learn that there were three
candidates for Governor, two friendly to Mr..
CLAY, and one TO the present administration. AS
far as we have heard, the votes were for Mr..
Noble, CLAY 1892. for Mr.. Read, (Jackson)
1886, and for Mr. stapp 2oo9. Gen. McCarty
Jackson) is chosen to Congress. in place OF Mr..
Test, in consequence Of o. II. Smith formerly
member,) being candidate in the same dis
trict. From the other districts we have not
heard.
From North Carolina we hear, in addition,
that VIM. B. Shepard has been reelected Re
preventative to Congress, by a large majority.
From Tennessee we hear, additionally, that
John Bell has been elected representative to
Congress without opposition.
From Virginia we learn that the vote in Fair
fax county for representative in Congress, was
nearly equally divided between the two candi'
dates, and that Of course Gen. Mercer has gain
ed his election by handsome majority.

Enthusiastically the wagon price Of Flour
was SIS 16 for new Wheat, and 90 a 5 OF for
old wheat Flour. We are not advised Of any
sales from stores. Dealers demand 12a for
old and S Is for new Wheat.
GRAIN. continue to quote Wheat at 95
to 90; good red would command the latter
price. The receipts Of wheat SO far this season
have been unusually small, probably not over
1000 bushels, whereas last year, up to this time
in August, they are believed to have been $4,000
bushels
We are at loss to account for the hardness in
the farmers, unless it is from the knowledge of a
