The Prospect before us.

IN the lew remarks which appeared in our paper of
last week, we made incidental alluson to the cause
o. Harrison in the renowned commonwealth Of Vircin
a-and although we were perfectly satisfied with the
result OF the elections in that most magnanimous State
our advcrsaries loud and obstinate in their denas
ABOUT the result Now, for the special benefit Of the
honest portion OF the Van Buren, party we beg leave
togo little into detail, and Just ask them to compare
cur brief analysis, with the official returns and rthey
do this the conclusion is irresistible that Harrison and
Tyler have carried the State.
We have the Official returns of 70 wing members in
the House of Delegatesexclusivc of Notawav Louisa
and other contested Counties, which will sccurc n
undisputed majority of 10 on Joint ballot Braxton.
Lewis, and Lee, which will very probably return whirs
as they did lat year, yet remain to be heard from.
Our majority then, is TO- certainly and may probably
be II or d. when all are heard from-and when the
question of the contested Seats are determined our
majority will not be much short of 90 But the mos,
cheering part Of the Virginia intelligence is the large
majority which we have gained in the popular vote.
The numerical strength of the wings is far in adj
vance Of the proportion of whig Delegates elected
The Petersburg lnieligenccr says, that having COM
pared the vote OF this year in about 60 of the Counties
most OF them in Eastern Virginia with the vote in
the same Counties in 1886, there is whig gain of
qooo-and clear "hig majority of 5000
Now we ask our Van Buren, friends and neighbors
II they should hesitate any longer to admit the fact
That arrson and Tyler will receive the vote of vir
