THE ELECTION.

\ We give the election returns so far as received
/ Our readers viii perceive loss and gain on both
sides and from what we can learn the prospects
are favorable to a Democratic Republican majority
in the Legislature. We are informed that several
whom the federalists have set down as " whig, "
are sub-treasury, and with the administration on
all the essential features of its policy So the vote
in the Legislature win show even more favora-
BILE aspect than the classification of the press. We
call upon friends abroad to place confidence in
the assurance, that North Carolina is neither for
Clay nor National Bank.
In Orange and Wake the federalists very
confident ofsuccess, and most extraordinary exer-
tions were used on their part. But the democrats
were firm and triumphant. This spirit has been
generally manifested in an unusual degree. We
regret that Northampton and Granville did not
bring out the full democratic ticket, which could
have been carried in those counties without diff
Guilty. Craven, for the first, and we trust the
last time, has bowed her neck to the hss:aa yoke
She will make amends to her county for this error.
uar returns are not so full as might be expected
We cannot consent to copy them from the federal
press, because we have no confidence in them
We have already been led into error, and placed
some sub-treasury members the federal list
We hope those gentlemen will excuse u.s.
1t IS source of qualification to hear from all
quarters, of the quiet and orderly department of the
Democratic Republican party, during the late heat
ed canvass. 1t is proof that among that pure
and patriotic people, abound the elements that
make good citizens, on whom the country may
safely rely in the hour peril and whoare the con-
servators of her laws in prosperity and peace
our beloved friends, exhibit to
heir political opponents example of justice,
moderation and frmness.

Our readers will recolIect that in our last name,
we copied an article from another paper. giving an
interesting description of sacramental neet;no
near the Hermitage, at which Gen. Jackson he.
came member of the Presbyterian Church. This
circumstance, so creditable to him and so well cal
culated to have a salutary influence on the COM
munlty, has become subject of ridicule by the
federal press; and the following from the Boston
Daily News, though, perhaps the most scandalous
OF any thing that has yet appeared on the subject
IS In the style and manner adopted by the federal
lists on the occasion-and all this is "Whig deeen-
