MARYLAND ELECTION.

The returns of the election in this state have
been received TO extent sufficient to render it
positively certain that the Wings have elected a
maj ,ruty of the members OF both branches Of the
Legislature, and thus secured the choice of a
Wing Senator. William Grason, Loco foco, is e.
lectcd Governor Tho Chronicle, says: at is
unnecessary to say here that this election affords
criterion by which to Judge Of the relative
strength of parties in the state.''
The following returns are furnished by the Bal
timorc Chronicle:
'We have (says the ChronicIe) no complete re-
turns from any OF the counties, but enough is
known TO give the following as tho result in the
counties named for members OF the Legislature.
Last year the Senate was composed of fifteen
members, who we're chosen by Electoral Col
iegc. For the first time this year the Senate is
elected by the people directly, and is composed
of one from each county. There is also ap-
poiutment in the House OF Delegates, which will

Ii became apparent the polls were

party to take possession of them and oprevent the
legal whig voters from giving in their suffrages.
This plan the result Of deliberate concert
Their spe akers counseiied them almost IN terms,
from The stand, to adopt it. and, Immediately at
ter the opening of the polls, strong detachments
of DULLES observed to take their stands be-
fore them, blocking up the entrance, and prevent
ing respectable person from giving in their bal
lots. In of the wards, the seventh, the ac-
cess to the polls had been made large and con
vcncnt by the erection OF a kind OF tarricade,
but majority of the judges,for some purpose in
, conceivable to us, directed 1t to be taken down.
in the 10Th ward, the newly appointed presiding
jndge refused to interfere to keep order, aedg-
ing that his power extended no further than TO
the keeping of order within the room in which
he set! In the Eleventh Ward, the presiding
i,dge, also nowly appointed.and noted for his I'M
scrupulous character, showed the most open and
papable partialtv in the receipt OF votes, trnct
ing instead Of facilitating the voting by all the
means in his power. In the first and third wards
the polls were blocked up in the early part of the
