TnE SWISS BELL RiNGgRs.-We had the pleas
ure last evening of listening to private exhibition
of the "Camponoloeian Boni Of swiss Bell Ring
ersf and We do not remember to have been more
grs;itied The performances OF this BInt nrr even
more surprising Gni delightful than those Of the
Russian Horn band. Seven men with Hnnd,bels
perform II great number of the most elnborite pieces
ot music with accuracy and precision when
would put to shame many Of the Ofchesyms TIE
tones are of the most dulcet character, resembling
somewha; those OF musical glasses, and the perfor-
nance altogether is of q most extraordinary aud
pleasing description. They performed before The
Queen, Prince Albert, aud the Roya Circle al
Windsor Castle on Thursday las, ard hnd the
honor Of being informed by Her MuJesiy rha, all
were highly gratiled in listening 10 their novel
mnsue!sy. They are ali fine looking young men,
and appear dressed in their national costume, which
is nj the same time simple, unique, striking und
effective.

For the House of Representatives, the returns

100 mcmbers-end the following from the st.
Louis Republican Wing OF 2Oth inst. gives the
laies. intelligence:
To the House OF Representatives, the "higs

There are two fies-one in Lewis, between the
hard and Wing and one in Carol, between
aard and soft. Special elections Will be hsld IN
these counties.
Col. Richmond, elected to the shame Of and
| By Wings Of Marion, Is pledged 10 vote against
Benton.
The hard Loco Focos are entitled to the re-
mainder of the 100 members Of the House.
Gruady Countp.-We have certain iniorma-
ton from this county, that DR.. Livingston ("hie)
has failed OF his election, having been beaten y
votes By his Loco Foco opponent. Dr.. Living
ston had a majority of thirty-one votes IN the
county proper, but the attached territory over
| .,.ibat n,.io-itv and decided the election III
favor of the Loco Foco. While we regret the re-
suit, we cannot but refer 10 Dr.. Livingston's re-
suit and zeal in terms OF commentator. Df.
| Livingston entered into the canvass as wing,
conducted it on Wing principles and under the
broad banner of Henry Clay, and met all the lo-
CO. Foco Zig men of that region on the stump
| OF course his independence secured to nm no
other vote than that Of the Wings. 1t IS no small
| gain. then, to have reduced the Loco F0co ma
ori,y in Grundy ono hundred votes, as ne hos
done, and giving us assurance that the county
will be for Clay and Frelinghuysen in November.
| DR.. Livingston is pledged to canvass the county
| rom this time until November, and we have no
fears about the result. We are only sorry that
his efforts have not been seconded with more zeal
by the Wings of that region a few more such
men, with his energy, zeal and intelligence, would
soon revolutionze that section of the State.
We understand, moreover, that DR.. Livingston
pressed his competitor SO hard IN the canvass, that
be agreed TO rcnounce Benton unless he tcould
| piedge himself to 90 for the IMMEDIATE anne1d-
non of Tezas. Now that he Is elected, it will be
seen whether he redeems his pledge, when the
election of Senator comes before the Legislature.
Aliens majority in Grundy county is between
20 and 25 votes.
