shield Commodore Elliot from his highly

The following is from the Philadelphia
National Gazette Of July 7th.
eve learn that the sentence Of the Court
Martial, which recently tried Commodore
Elliot in this city on sundry charges, is sus-
pension from his functions for four years,
Ind withholding Of his pay for two years.

that Letcher, the wing candidate for NV

majority Of tDenty thousand. We should
be gratified to sec such majority in our
native State, but we think the estimate too
high. Ten or twelve thousand is probably
nearer tie mark.
INDIANA. This gallant little State, the
former home Ufthe old Hero, and the scene
of one Of bis ca lest and most brilliant
achievements, appears TO have gone for the
wing ticket almost en masse. The majority
Of Judge Bigger, the wing candidate for gov

tsgenty thousand votes. We learn that Gen
Brown, when tn this city on his way home,
conceded the state to the wings BY ~ or Ia
thousand majority "A few days more will
put the matter to rest.
