In Ruthefhrd two wings are elected to the
legislature. williamson has elected Wings
to the House Of Representatives and to The
Senate. Wilson increased its wing vote since
Al by ia and sent whig representatives and
a Senator to The Legislature.
In Bedford, which has been divided since
the last election, the wing majority is 81 in
the same limit, IN which Folks majority in Al
was so. A wing member has been elected to
the Legislature
In Robertson, Jones' majority was increased
by l59 over the vote Of al. A wing elected
to the legislature and but little doubt entertain
ed Of the election Of Wing Senator from
Robertson and Montgomery.
lnSumner, Folks gam since Al. is AZ votes.
A much larger gain was calculated upon by
his friends. The election Of Wing Senator
from Sumacy and Smith IS said 10 be certain.
But little is yet known IN regard to tho cleo
lion Of members Of Congress. There is no
doubt Of The election Of a wing member from
Davidson, Smith, and Sumner, and a whig
has been elected in the Rutherford district
without opposition.
Incur qexl paper we hope to be able to give
returns sufficiently full to Indicate the probable
majority BY which the State has gone. The
increased majorties which the counties heard
from have generally furnished, induce US TO
hope that Jones' majority sill rot be much
short Of 10000 votes; but as we have not re-
ceived accounts from more than one ofPolk's
