THE RESULTS

Asfar as the elections Of members TO the next
Congress have progressed. il 10 fair to admi, ,h.,
the Administration has gained some strength
The following is the gain:
In Georgia 5. South Carolina 2, Pennsylvan
., masking in all g. New Jersey stands =. before;
illinois is only partial in her support, and in Lou
isians, Gen Ripley is claimed by both parties.
The Opposition gain consists Of g in Ohio. and
io Maine, leaving clear gain for the Admins
TRITON Of 6. This ne hope to overbalanee large
Iy by the New York vote about to be given, aud
when the time shall have come, Maryland and
Virginia will sdd little to the good cause.
In the Senate. the Opposition have lost one in
New Hampshire and one in New Jersey; and we
shall lose another in Maine. and perhaps ono in
Mississippi. We expect to gain one in North
Carolina, and hope, 10 good time, to get one in
Ohio and two in New York.
The vacancies oecasioned by the appointment
Of Mr.. wilkins Of Penn,y lvani. to Russia, and
Mr.. Forsyth Of Georgia TO the State Department,
will be filed BY friends Of the Administration.
