FLORIDA-ONCE MORE

This Young State, il seems, will have two dele
gates 10 Congress, or rather Two claimants LOT me
same seat. The following extracts We take from
the FIoridian of the 18th inst, the last date we
have seen. 1t is evident, that Cabell VIII lake
his seat, tina. Brockenbrough will contest, and
backed by real majority Of the popular vote' VIII
be admitted as the peoples choice. According
10 The returns in The Secretary of States ONCE,
Brockenbrough has majority; and substantial
Justice and proper regard for the declared VIII
OF The rcople, entle him to the seat and must
confer on him the full honors with which The Stale
OF Florida Intended TO invest him:
ave learl Mr. Cabell has demanded OF The
Executive officers and received his certificate as
Representative in Congress elect from This Stale,
founded upon The partial returns which only haa
been received up 10 The 9th inst, within which
time The Stale law declares the election mana
gers shall make their returns. Will ne venture
10 take his seall We hope moi, for his own Iepu
,ation-we rust not, nay, we have confidence
thai he will rot. He we'll knows that Nj Brock
enbroueh is elected The Wings here know II.
They know, for they have received letters from
Wings al Key West, giving Brockenbroush
majority OF 50 in Monroe, and in Hlllsboroush
%, and in ST. Lucie 8. Whereas, Mr.. Cabell
claims exclusive OF these votes, butts majority;
So. 100, the full return from Washington, and
Columbia, and Walton, and Calhoun, were not
made by The 9th inst. They would have increas-
ed Mr.. Bpckenbroughs majority 10 about
seventy. S,ms Of The delayed o6seial returns, and
enough 10 gre Mr.. B. a majority, hare been re-
ceired 6v he Secretary since The certificate iras IS
sued and Mr.. b. wiA CLAIM his seat, and if MIR.
c. attempts 10 resist the expressed will of the peo-
ple. becaus. Of The neglect OF inspectors OF cleo
ton. he Will meet with deserved rebnke The
rabid Wings, We learn, insist on his doing So
Some saw he should resign, and hope 10 have
new election. Whether he persists or resigns,
MIR. B. will be admitted by the House OF Repre-
senta,ives, and be acknowledged as The peoples
choice.
The editor OF the Charlottesville (Va.) Jeferso-
MAN will no doubt be rejoiced 10 learn that the
disappointment expressed by him in The extract
telow was premature, and that his iavorile, w.
n. Brockenbrough, will yet be zone OF the most
prominent, aclors in the next Congress The
Democracy Of Florida, than whom none are
more true, had a march stolen upon them IN me
recent election by their opponents, but they VIII
always remember in future that eternal vigI-
lance is the price Of liberty"

Some alarm being felt in regard 10 fever
which has appeared in the Lexington Military
Institute, we are authorized TO say, that but six
or seven cases have occurred of a very mild cha
racter Of Typhoid or Adynamic; that they
have readily yielded TO treatment and are now
rapidly being cured, and that no new case has
broken out We can assure the parents and
guardians Of cadets at Lexington, that there is not
the slightest reason for apprehension. Very late
letters enable US 10 speak positively. This fever
has been very prevalent in Rockbridge and The
adjacent country, but is now abalins rapidly.

From The Liverpool Times, Nor l.

presents no very striking feature. OF beef there
is only limited quantity in market, and holders
appear anxious to dispose OF the stock on hand
before The arrival of the new. Pork is dull, not.
whslanding the small supply remaining in the
hands OF The trade; this result is mainly atribu-
table TO The unhappy state of matters in Ireland
where the farmers have been compelled 10 force
their stocks TO a sale. There has been some
Cheese brought 10 The hammer al public sale,
but only hall oil the quantity offered found pur-
chasers, and that at reduction Of IS. per cwt.
The market is bare of Lard, and the price is
high, owing 10 the state Of the butler market.
The Wool Of the United States continues 10 find
customers in England, and this branch of the
trade is improving; indeed there appears 10 be
no bounds 10 the consumption OF an article which
never, until recently, formed an article OF eYpor-
lation from America.
LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET.
The cotton market continues in depressed
state; there is but little DOING and if prices are
not actually lower than al The departure OF the
last steamer, they may be said 10 be in favor OF
the buyer. variety OF circumstances will ac-
count Tor the depression which prevails; foremost
amongst the number is the apprehension OF ge-
neral panic contingent upon The fearful state of
corn crops; and the absurd pitch 10 which specu-
lalions in rails has been carried. Other branch
es of business are suffering more or less from these
combined causes; and, as the Winter approach
es, this feeling Of alarm, there is too much reason
to apprebend, will rather increase than abate.
The news which came 10 hand last week BY the
Cambria, gave no reason 10 apprehend that the
new crop will be much, if any below that Of last
year, and il has had no perceplible influence on
The trade Since Friday, The 3lst inst, The bust
ness has not improved, and dullness reigns su-
rreme Speculation has disappeared, and in the
absence Of all activity, the sales during the inter-
vening three days only amount 10 abou, 5000
