TENNESSEE U. S. SENATOR'S.

The Nashville Wing extra, dated at s
O'Clock p. m, the 18th instant. informs
US that on that day the Hon. Ephraim Il
Foster. Of Middle, and Spencer Jarna-
gin. of East Tennessee, were elected u
niteh States Senators-the first named
to serve till the 4th of March, l845. to
fill the vacancy caused by the death Of
the Hon. Felix Grundy; and the last
named. to fill the term which common
ced on the 9Th of March l84l, and will
end on the 3D. Of March, l847.
These gentlemen were the Wing nom
inees two years ago, and would have
been elected then, if they had said that
they would obey the instructions of the
Legislature. or resign. They are now
elected without any pledges; and will
not of course. (as they are true Wings.
regard the instructions of the Legislature.
1t gives us great pleasure to state that
not single Democrat voted for either
Of them; and we may truly add, this is
the only qualification we feel in announ-
cling the result. They were elected by
a clean Wing vote-lf we may be allo"
ed to use such an expression in speaking
ofany election made by the Wings
