SPRING ELECTIONS IN VIRGINIA.

The Wheeling Argus says, "Wc are graft
fed to learn, as we do from correspondents in
The mountain counties, that our worthy cand-
date for Congress, William G. Brown, Esq,
is giving much satisfaction to the people, with
out respect 10 party, wherever he addresses
them We doubt not, that when he comes to the
river counties he will be received with that good
feeling and satisfaction, which attended his pro-
gress where he has already been"
The Wings OF Bedford had ! meeting on the
2lth inst, and nominated WIN. NJ. Bnrwel ESD,
and Dr. Thomas p Mitchell rs their candidates
for the next House OF Delegates.
The 'Lynchburg Virginian" speaks of Twins
prospects, &c, &C., in The Abemarle District
and the confirmation which its idngs have re-
ceyed from "the raven notes OF the Richmond
Enouirer's correspondents in that quarter" We
assure the "virginian, that our subsequent ard
better accounts from all quarters OF the District
have changed the character OF our notes, and We
consequently hope, will affect The note of the
Lynchburg Nirginan. Leake is too much for
Irving on the siump-too much Tor him in The
qualifications of 4 member OF Congress-oo
much for him on The great and unsettled question
Of Texas annexation, and will prove Too much
from him at the polls.
The Wy,heYe Republican says: We
learn from Smyth, that cur old friend Or. Thos.
NJ. Tate, has hecn brought out by The Democra-
cy of Smyib, as their slandari-be bearer in the
next election This is well done There is
now no earthly danger in Smyth. The Doctor
is strong, stout, and fleet. No Wing in S,nvth
can come within hailing distance. There is q
modes:y, talent, discretion prudent and
sound discriminating judgment in DR.. Tate,
,ha, has placed him al the head of the silent
members al The Legislature Smylh is well re-
presented in every sense Of the word, when DIR.
Tate answers either al home or in Richmond"
(fhe Wytheviile Republican is perfectly
rect The only fault Of DR.. Tale is his modesty.
We have had the pleasure Of his acquaintance
for several Winters but never until tie last ses-
sion did VIC duly appreciate his strong and discri-
minaling understanding. His friends must at
tempt 10 bring him out next Winter, il his worthy
Constituents will again do him The honor oftrust-
ing their interests 10 his discretion -Engnirer)
The Lynchburs Republican still complains of
the condition of the Republican patty in Frank
lin. We shall publish in to-morrow's pa
per an able communication from that ccun-
ty. 1t strips off the disguise of one OF the
Wing candidates, and his humbug intrgues to
obtain the votes Of the Republicans
