ILLINOIS. 1t is now pretty we'll as
certained, that CARLrN Loco Foco) is
elected Governor Of this State, CASEY;
a Conservative, denounced by all the
Loco Foco papers and leaders in the
State, REYNoLDs, a Sub Tfeasuryite
and anythIngarian, and STUART, gen.
ulne Wing, are elected REPRESENTATIVES
to Congress. The Wings, it is quite
certain, have malorities in each branch
OF the Legislature, and will join with
the Conservatives in instructing the
Senators from that State to abandon
the Infamous Sub Treasury scheme.
We have as little doubt, that Reform,
IN lis most searching shape, will be
visited upon the various Office. holders
who have converted their official sta.
tons into electoneerlng machines.
The last Vandalia Wing says:--
"Nhnois Legisiatme.- Strength of

opinions of'the members ofeach branch

venerable prelate to bis children in thai
vicinity, remarks:
/" On Sunday he preached from the
same desk he occupied more than half
century ago, at Richmond, Staten
Island. 1t was a most interesting oc
cusion, being communion day. His
discourse was most feeling, particular
ly when he alluded to his associations,
in the early parts Of the ministry, the
few Of old Pensioners that remained
who were there assembled around the
table OF the Redeemer, and the proba-
bility that this would be the last oppor-
tunity he should ever enjoy, of parta-
king with them the bread of life.
No man probably in this country,
has more venerable and patriarch.

head and trembling hands, as he bends
over the pulpit, gives him the most holy
and apostolic appearance. Ills dis.
course, full ofeloquence and animation
was listened to, with the greatest posi-
BILE attention. The church, as might
| be expected, was crowded to excess
and hundreds crowded around him, tc
| pay their respects to one whom they
so highly esteemed and loved. The
bishop will return to his home in Yr.
glnia this week, and will attend The
General Episcopal Convention to be
held in Philadelphia"
