The Elections.

We have seen returns from the late
election in New York, which render il
certain that the Locos have carried that
Stale by a very large maiority-Gov =
ernor, Congress, Legislature and ALL
The Wings, we believe, elected but ten
members of Congress out Of thirty four.
In Delaware, the Wings have sue
ceeded in eIecting their Congressman ,
Legislative ticket, &c by a close vote.

WHAT THEY SAY OF US,

The English papers OF the manufac-
turing Districts, complain bitterly of the
American Tariff. Some of them affirm
that it will ruin the manufacturers,
while others c'li upon the government
TO pursue a retaliatory course in relation
to the United States. The following
paragraph from a Birmingham paper,
may DO quoted as a sample Of columns
in the same strain:
do we overrate its Importance al the
present time, or the influence which the
New Tariff is calculated to have upon
u prospecls2 Well might it be thought
so, when the English press in general
takes so little notice Of the matter. And
we grant that the American trade is not
what ii once was, but il is still far more
at the present time than Birmingham
can afford to lose without feeling it, and
feeling it deeply, too. The major part
Of the public press, ignorant of the BEAR
ings of the question, may congratulate
its readers upon The better prospects Of
commerce with America, but Brrming'

the House Of Representatives in that

Completion Of the Wabash and Erie
CanGt.-We have had letters frequently
addressed to US, asking for information
10 regard to the situation and prospect
Of final completion Of this work. For
the satisfaction Of our friends at a dis
lance, we have made particular inquiry
Of the engineers having charge on the
line, and learn from them that the whole
line will be completed during the next
month. The connection with the main
canal at this place hos been in opera
ton for some months. The side cut at
Maumee city will soon be done, and the
aqueduct across Swan creek on the route
oil the canal to Manhattan, will also, as
we are in Informed, be finished in NoVsm'
Der. The great reservoir in Pauldlng
county is nearly completed-all the EN-
bank meuts being finished, and nothing
of consequence remaining TO be done to
il except clearing it Of the timber. II
is the i~ntention TO clear the reservoir
next winter as soon as the ice will be
sufficient for that purpose. We are as
sured BY the engineers that the whole
line Of the canal. from the eastern ter
minaiion to Lafayette, will be in a state
of perfect readiness for the earliest ma
vigation next spring.-ToIedO Blade.

in every instance surrender every proposition which
was at all doubtful For he repeated, he preferred max
ing argument, the fairness Of which could dis
pute rather than make startling its conclusions
although we'll sustained but yet open to cavIl. tie
should not therefore, insist upon the result arrived
at by calculation based upon this table, partly for
reasons which he had already given. For instance,
many of the articles included in that table entirely
produced in this country and of the price of
them would not be affected by duty on imports
There other articles, where the quantity imported
too small to affect materially the supply OF our
market and consequently the price OF the article Ar
tcles of these two classes ought no therefore, to be
taken into the estimate, unless indeed as was highly
probable, they have been excluded from market,
but sparingly introduced, in consequence of the high
duty which has been levied upon them. II so, when
the duties have gone down. as they will after next juno,
if the Compromise is not disturbed TO 20 per cent it
is probable that they will be introduced and thus IN
creasng the supply, will depress the price Of similar
articles produced here, by which, of course, the con-
sumer would be benefited. But he should not insist
upon this item, for the that he did not mean 10
insist upon any which could be controversial Besides,
the whole from the duties not derived from
the imported articles included in this table, MIR Clay,
in his late speech in the Senate, estimates that the
amount of imports upon which duties will be laid will
be about ninety mllons-so to raise two millions
seven hundred thousand dollars, about the probable
amount of the land fund, an increased duty Of three
per cent would be necessary For the convenience Of
his future calculations, he should take these two
as correct. And it was matter of very little conse
quence, whether they not, the principle
to be deduced from the calculations would be the same
whether they precisely accurate not; for the
same reason that diagram for the purpose of Illus
tratiDg geometrcal propositions, need not be drawn
with precise mathematical accuracy.
With the aid of the table which he had already pre-
sented he had made another and should base upon it
calculation, the correctness of which, no one could
