VIRGINIA ELECTION.

The result is yet uncertain, as the votc i,
very close. There will most likely be tie
or the wings have a majority. This i,
conceded by the Richmond Enquirer.
A letter from Springville, Henrico Coun-
ty, Virginia, dated May 10th, says:
"The wings have succeeded in obtain
ing a small majority in the Legislature Of
this state on joint ballot. They have
fourteen majority in the House of Dele
gates we have in the Senate nominally a
majority of twelve. OF the thirty-two
members Of the Senate twenty are republi-
cans; and Of this nsmber seventeen are for
an independent treasury, and nre among
the most talented men in Virginia. We
have carried six of the eight new members
who were chosen at this election, and next
year we shall sweep all whose time expires.
We have lost the state by divisions among
ourselves. The course of the Richmond
Enquirer has done us harm, but that print
is coming right again. i think the wings
will elect the noted federalist, Robert STAN
nard, to the United States Senate, because
they know TINT their power will be of short
duration, and Stannard will neither obey in
stractions nor resign. They will be afraid
to elect Tyler-he is too honest for them,
md would obey instructions.
Although majority of the Delegates
IRE against us, we have a majority of the
people. We have lost seven counties by
divisions, which, placed on our side, would
1--WE us majority in the lower House. In
hese counties the democrats will certainly
'ent next spring, and will regain all they
ave lost in the other counties.

FUNERAL OBSEQUIES efthe SUI
FERERS by the bloring up ofMe
STEAMBOAT MOSELLE.

[From the Cincinnati Daily Gazette, April 30 I
On Saturday afternoon, April %, the
mournful duty of committing 10 the grave
nineteen of the sufferers in the destruction n
of the MoselIe, was performed in this city,
associated with a solemn funeral service.
upon account of the sufferers.
As the calamity wns peculiar and trans
cendant in its horrors, SO were the funeral
obsequies solemn md imposing beyond any
thing that has ever taken place in this city,
At three o'clock, upon the first toll of the
bell, every place of business was closed.
1t is believed there was no exception. Ap-
parently the whole city was moving mass
to the foot of Broadway, where the pro-
cession wns forming. This was accom-
Pllshed according to previous regulations.
The deceased, enclosed in proper collins,
were placed in the hearses ofthe city, which
not being sufficient to convey them, tho
necessary number Of carriages were added.
When the procession was prepared to move
up Broadway to Fourth street, the con-
tiguous approaches Of the intersecting
streets, were literally choaked with one
crowded jam of human beings. Among all
"esS Ho Wofu was spoheu, no iOoh Ot teVi-
,y was INDUCED. The universal feeling
was too deep for any such sensation to be
felt.
The progress Of the procession, SO vast
in numbers, so solemn in manner, made
every where on its liue Of movement the
deepest impressioD.-Sa,l and sorrowful
faces, hundreds of them bedcwed with
tears, crowded to windows, doors and all
places of observation. -.
The interment took place in the Pushe
burial ground, and Mt this last act OF respees
and kindpess that can be performed by the
living for the dead, some most touching
scenes occurred.-Those t. be deposited
in their las, earthly rest were all strangers.
Some Of them were members OF the ssmo
family. nnd in one or two Instances sutyiv-
ing relations were present. One mothef,
German, whose husband is among the lost,
ras, herself upon the coffin Of her only two
in agnDies seldom witnessed. Bu,

MISSISSIPPI ELECTION. From wha, we
can gather, it seems that Messrs. Claiborne

placed almost beyond doubt.-Ib.
