Oar Triumph in Vuiginia. The
Washington Union says:-'We do moi
desire to usher in the first number Of
The Uaion' with any pompous flour
ish of trumpets; but, as Lady Grace
says, we mean to take everything so
berly. Yet we must congratulate the
country upon the triumph which the
Democratic party have just achieved in
the Old Dominion. We have not YET
received complete returns from all the
State; but we have sufficient accounts
to satisfy US that we have carried l3,
perhaps IA, out Of the Is representa-
tlves IN Congress, and a majority upon
the joint votes Of the two Houses,
which will be sufficient to secure the
election of a Democratic Senator in
place Of VIM. c. Rives, Esq, (star
of the Morning how thou art talleni')
CoNGREss.-The Delegation in the
last session embraced 4 wings and II
democrats. We now carry 10 or IA
democrats, and leave the wings in
possession off members possibly-and
probibly only.
state SENATE.--At the last ses-
sion The democrats had majority of
S; this spring we shall probably gain
9 and lose one Senator-making our
present majority in the Senate 10.
HOUSE OF DELEGATEs.-At the
last session, the wings had majority
of II; we now make nett gain of 7,
or I members, giving US 2 majority.
We shall make, almost certain, 4 more
gains; in which case, the democratic
majority in the lower House will be, 10,
or 20 on joint ballot.
PosrscRIpT.-We learn by this
morning 's'Richmond Enquirer, and as
it appears in the Augusta Democrat,
that in Wythe, democrat (Leftwich J
is elected without opposition-a demo-
cratic gain; and that, in Bath, John
U. Dickinson, democrat, is elected
without opposition-an another democrat
ic gain.
The Wheeling Argus (of last mighty
states that Neal (democrat) is elected
to the House Of delegates in Wood and
Richie counties by more than 200 ma
jority. Another gain.-Balt. Ar

Magnetic Jelegrqgh .4cross the 1T
lantic.-A plan of establishing a mag.
netic telegraph between Europe and
America is gravely proposed in one of
the New York papers. Its TO consist
ola copper wire The size Off pipestem,
and long enough to reach from Nova
Scotia TO the coast of Ireland, to be
wound upon rods, and arranged on
board steamship so as to be reeled
of as fast as the boat went, and drop
ped The whole width of the Atlantic.
Its gravity, the protector calculates,
would sink to the depth where water
was 50 dense as to be of equal gravity,
and Of course, where it would be be-
yond the reach of any kind of COLI
sion. The steamship Great Britain
could carry more wire of this size than
would extend to Europe, and its cost
would be something less than a million
of dollars. 1t is observed that it is not
taken into account in this proposition
that the same specific gravity which
would sink the wire below the surface
of the water, won!d cause it to sepa-
rate either by its own weight or by
that of the superintendent fluid mass.

VIRGINIA ELEcrioNs.- We have
trlumphed over our wings friends in
this State, at the elections for Con-
gressmen, State Senators and Assem-
biymen, on the 24th ult Among the
congressional delegation, our wing
brethren-(wc hope they will permit us
to call them brethren now)-have
scarcely a little grease spot left, to
mark the place where they fell'-
fighting among Themselves! according
to our most excellent and esteemed
friend of the Richmond Wing. 1t is
certain that Is of the Is members cleo
ted to Congress from this State are
Republicans-the wings elccting only
two, one in the Loudon district, and
one in the Kanawha district; full re-
turns, however, have not been receiv-
ed from the latter district, up to the
present time, but it appears to be gen.
orally believed that the wing candidate
has been elected.
AS far as heard from and we believe
all the doubtful counties have been
heard 'front.' is pretty well ascertain
ed that the majority on joint ballot, III
the next Legislature, will not fall far
short of twenty. This viii be suff;-
clent for all practical purposes.
We congratulate our Democratic
brethren generally upon the happy re-
sults-immediate and remote-that
have been secured to tho State and to
the country; for they have not only Sc
cured to the State Democratic Gov
ernor, but they have given US the u.
S. Senator, to be elected next winter
which will give as the ascendancy in
that body. This last result we look
upon as especially important, inasmuch
as the success Of the measures of the
new administration depend upon the
cooperation of the Senate; and, had
the wings succeeded IN this State, they
would have had majority Of one, and
would have held both the Executive &
the lower House IN check, so that no
important national measure-at least
any of those upon which parties are d.
vided-could have succeeded. But
now the new administration is untram-
melled by any other checks or restraints
than those imposed by that CoNsTIrU-
TIoN which Mr. Polk has solemnlv
sworn to support.
As soon as the returns from every
county in the State are received, a /.
table will be given containing the re-
suit.

Texan Secretary Of State. Mr. Ash
bel Smith, the Texan Secretary Of
State, arrived in this city yesterday, and
proceeds on to Boston this morning, to
embark on Thursday in the steamer for
England. 1t is difficult 10 imagine
any other than ore object of such
post haste speed on the part Of this
func:ionary, on the way TO London
namely 10 ascertain f.om England what
terms they can get in the way ofmoney
for their debts, as the condition of4efu.
sing Annexation to the United States.
ifthis is SO, according to the general
rumor, it is certainly very INDIGENOUS
and indecent proceeding, worthy per-
haps of some stockjobbing politicians
about the Government of Texas, anx-
ious mainly about scrip and place; but
it is not one likely to find favor with
the people of that country, whom all
accounts concur in representing as en-.
thusiastic III favor Of their long cherish
ed hope of coming into our Union. If
such is The object Of Mr.. Ashbel Smiths
extraordinary mission, we have l.sle
faith, either in the idea that the END
Government would like 10 venture 50
far to irrtate the people Of the United
States, by bribing Texas to defeat IA
vorite measures Of our public policy;
or that, if she should do il, thu peopIg
of Texas would ever tolerate such a
transaction.-N. Y. .Ners.

THE OIDEN TINE IN MARYLAND. The Ma
ryland Gazette was commenced at Annapolis
in Maryland in l745, by Jonas Green, ma
tive of Boston. He had established a press
there several years before, the Government oil
Maryland having offered him generous encour-
agement. He was printer for the colony, with
salary of $500.
There had, however, been newspaper at
Annapolis before, as early probably as 727.--
This was also called the Maryland Gazette,
and was published by William Parks. Mr..
Thomas, in his History of Printing, states that
he had seen extracts from Parks paper OF
1929. and that he had reason to believe it was
published rregularly until 1886.
Jonas Green died in 1867, and his wife,
Anne Catharne, succeeded him and was for
many years publisher of the paper and printer
to the colony. She was the mother of six sons
and eight daughters. The publication of the
Gazette was suspended for while in l765, on
account of the stamp act. 1t was occasionally
issued during the suspension, under the name
of the "Apparition of the Maryland Gazette,
which is not dead but sleepeth;' and at one cor
ner of the sheet, as substitute for stamp,
was placed figure of deaths head, about
which were arranged the words ''The times are
dismal, doleful, dolorous, dollar-ess."
