THe Summing Up.-Notwithstanding the coons have some slight cause 10 rejoice over certain items of political intelligence, yet when they come to the summing up, counting the profits and the loss,-they find they have no such reason to shout at the aggregate result. Even in Maryland, the fgures-and 1t is said figures cannot lie"- show conclusively and beyond successful contradiction, that the popular vote at the last election is most certainly i'll favor of the Democratic party In New Jersey, as we have already shown, the sceptre has departed from the hands of Whiggery, and the < Broad Scalp is now in hands that will not tarnish 1t by appending 1t to false documents, or false returns of elections, for party purposes. In the Old Keystone State, we learn from the Harrisburg Union, which paper is filled with official returns of elections,-that < on the great political test question of the campaign that which distinctly drew the party lines and marshalled the relative strength of each the election of Canal Commissioners-the Democratic party has been signally Uicto- ri0us. The Democratic nominees, Messrs. Clark, Miller and Foster, are unquestIonably successful by a majority of from fourteen to fifteen thousand, proving that the popular vote of the State is as thoroughly opposed to whigism and its concomitant heresies as ever. In the State Senate, the Democratic majority has been eractly doubled last year 1t was five, now 1t is ten, there being precisely TWO Democrats in that body to ONE Whig In the House of Representatives Htere is clear Democratic majority of sirteea, notwithstand- ing three whig members from Bucks, Bed ford and Milfln were chosen by combined majorities of barely elerea votas. The De moeratic majority on joint ballot is hence tweMy-eight, "sufficient for all useful pur- dosesn And what is of infinite moment, al- so, the Democratic members are mostly men of known intelligence and firmness, strongly welded to the interests of the State, and tue asageS of he party Hat has elected hem There Is, therefore, much reason to believe that the next session will exhibit less deyia- ton than formerly from straightforward line of policy-less material for disregard of the party discipline so essential to the pre- servation of harmony-to speak in plainel terms, less danger of < boiling" from regular caucus nominations. The Democrats have hence not only PfePohdefance of numbers but they seem to have made 1t point to put forth their strongest and best men.0
 The members of Congress stand twelve Democrats and twelve Wings. In the last Congress the Wings had thirteen members
 The Globe brings us the following sum- ming up of the returns from Ohio, and says The Congressional delegation from the State, is twelve Democrats, and nine Wings, be- yond doubt; and it is almost certain that the Democrats have four majority ill the Se- nate, and the Wings four majority in the House of Representatives of the State Last year, If we recollect right the Democrats had two majority in each branch of the Le- gislature.
 The Congressional delegation from the State, in the last Congress, stood twelve Wings and seven Democrats, as follows
