Maryland ElectiOn-Its Important Results.
The recent election in Maryland and the singular
ly mingled character of its results, have created
great deal of remark and observation by the Jour-
mails OF the various parties throughout the country
The greatest sensation, however, happens to have
been produced in the columns of the leading organs
of the two parties IN Washington. We allude to
the administration organ, the Union, on one side,
and the organ of the opposition the telligencer, on
the other. SInguary enough both these organs
claim great trumph-a mighty triumph-a won
derful victory The Union representing the views
of Mr. Polk and his cabinet thinks that the election
is conclusive in favor Of reduction and modifica-
ton OF the tariff, whilst the ,tenigencer, or oppos-
ton organ. believes il to be amora triumph against
every thing like State Reputation. We are not
sure but both parties are right-that they have
perfect right to mingle their cheers together and
therefore that those who 60 for the country and not
tor party alone,-as we profess TO do,-may cheer
both Sides and clap their hands with both parties
But this is asingular election and requires some
special remarks, we will proceed to give first the
facts az compared with the previous election re-
turns. Here they are

now on visit to Paris, is writing very curious let

description OF the houses of il-iame in Paris. fur

courtezans who are subject the surveillance of the
police, adding piquant details of the system pur-
sued for the purpose of decoying the students to
debauchery, shame and ruin. This, certainly, is a
new species Of the mysteries OF Paris and is rather
curious reading for the refined and elegant circles

They were only the repositors,-the safe keepers of these assets until the Receivers were quali- ned 10 take charge of them, when they should have turned over the whole of them without partitioning about four or five thous- and dollars of the money among themselves and the Ex-President
 Their only right,-their only duty. sir. was 10 do this, and in doing more, as is con tended in the Report, and as will ever nain- tam they transcended that right, and violated that duty
 Major Field, who was one of the sharers of thlsBoard's fayors, argues with the Board. that the only privilege of which they were divested untli they hadtuned over the assets ofthe Bank to theReeelvers, was that ofloanng money, or discountlng individual paper Then sir, they were as competent to appoint as to pay an agent; and if Mr Field was sincere i'll this opinion, why did he apply to the Legislature for thls mission? Perhaps sir, he had more confidence Tn the ilberality of the Legisla- ture than the Bank Directory, as the Con- mttee have shown, of which he has long been aware, that the latter was parsimoni- ous, and even niggardly in awarding com pensatlon 10 its officers and agents; particular ly sir to those who were employed to collect or Sccare debts due tbe Baak.

To have '' sounded all the depths and shoals" of its abuses and peculations 1; to have explored the entire field of its cor ruption,s, and gathered together and furnished to this House every instance of favoritism, injustice, violated faith, and breach of law, perpetrated by those who have had entrus- ted to them it's direction and control, since 1t was first established until the present day, would have filled that Journal on the Speak er's table.
