Gen. Charles Fenton Mercer CLAY has
been elected in the Loudoun district by a
majority Of Gas votes, over his jackson op
benent, Col Gibson.
In the Culpcper District, the contest for
SCongress has been fought Says the Rich
knond Whig) upon jackson and anti Jackson
Grounds. MIR j S Barbour was denounced
Is hostile to Jackson's election, and virtually
b admitted the charge. Col Wallace placed
his claims very much upon Jacksonism-the
s two papers at NVarrenton and the enc at Cul
4 peper c. House, all strangely touched with
Ivan Burenism, kept up an incessant fire up
on Mr. Barbour, who had no ally among the
Press in the District. In that powerful and
Enlightened District, heretofore so Strong for
81 jackson. it appears that a politician may &C
#f,laHu refuse to wear Jackson's collar and Ice.
e Countrymen-here is change noble and
lglsrious change change from beasty, de
#grading and serviity to one man, and one
mans name, to a manly and independent ex-
rciss of the tights of free opinion and free
Eonduct. We highly esteem and respect Col
XSVallace--we are sure that he embraced
Jacksonism honestly, and without view to
IA seat in Congress shall at the first lei
sure, publish his address, in which he makes
this manitest-but we do not the less rejoice
lin his delest--in the defeat of any man, who
3claims after two years experience of Gen
3Jackson's ridiculous incompetency, to ride
into Congress upon his back Were it ia
4ther, instead of friend, we could find il in
Our heart to rejoice We are sorry TO find
q Col Wallace on the road to Van Buren, Jack
$sonism- sorry for bis sake, for we know the
man-we were sure that as it affected his pc
htical prospects, he wsuld arrive the 'sday
after the fare"
A letter from Culpeper says:
JEFFERsoGToN. Va, Aug 18th, 1881

opponent [Wallace] from S to 900 votcs.-
Fauquier has yet to vote. The impression
of many, is, that Borbour ,UsH beat him in
a that county: II SO, he with be elected to Con
#gress by majority of from 500 to 1000. The
result Of this election will prove that Jackson
ism is on the wane, at least, in tbs District.
\ The Fredericksburg Political Arena fur
nishes the following information:
''The returns waich have reached us, leave
E.tle doubt that 1fr TALLAFERRo has been
outsted by Mr. CHINN. in the Northern Neck
! Congressional District, and we may expect
4 to hear the shouts Of triumph frsm the Jack
q son press, Nothing is farther from the truth,
n however. than the assertion that MIR. CHNN's
s. election is Indicative OF a change of sent
4 ment on national p litics among the people
a OF he district. His success was owing to
#personai conscientious, and not to the
strength cl the administration party. The
district was never more decidedly anti Jack
son than at this moment. No intelligent
Jacksonian in the Northern Neck would claim
majority Tor bis party in the district"
The Arena also gives us the following hint,
in regard to one of The Representatives from
! this State in the last Congress, who is just
reelected
awe understand that Mr.. CoxE, the late
Representative Of the Williamsburg district,
Aand n opposition TO whom Mr.. CARTER Nj.
BRAxToN was brought out al the eleventh

#Jacksouian. His conversion has been gia

this ground, bur bis re election is pretty Ger.
