VIRGINIA The Election
Postponed-1hursday l!ast was the day
fixed upon for the consideration of the
resolution previously adopted by the
House for the election of y. S. Sena-
tor, on Friday. As was generally an
ticipated, the election has been indef-
nitely postponed~-that is, until the
next session of the Legislature.
AS matter ofcourse, this manner
of disposing of the subject, by the
Senate, will be denounced as 'disorga-
nising,' &C., by the 'order'- LOVING
wings. They will contend, that be-
cause they have majority on joint
ballot, they therefore have the right to
elect wing Senator; and we would a.
gree with them, if we did not known,
that wings were returned from at least
three Democratic counties, on account
of divisions in our ranks in those coun-
ties--a fact of which the wings them
selves cannot be ignorant. Had those
counties been represented, as they
ought to have been, by Democrats, the
result would have been the reverse
of what il is. Add to this the fact,
that Mr.. POLK received the vote of this
State by majority of almost six thou
sand, and we think that, the candid
even among the wings, must acknowl
edge, that Virginia ought, according TO
every principle of justice and honor,
to be represented by two Democratic
Senators, during Mr.. PoLK's Admin
istration-Senators who will carry out
her sentiments and views upon the
great questions before the country.
a] Mr.. Polk and Mr.. DALLAS,
with their families, passed through
Baltimore, on Thursday last, the 18th
instant, on their way TO Washington.
The Republican & Argus of Friday
gives a spirited description of the en-
thusiastic manner in which they were
received by the s'lion-h hearted Demo-
cracy' of the Monumental City. p
After exchanging salutations with the
Committee of Reception, in formal
way, and receiving the hearty congrat-
ulations of the avalanche of people,
who witnessed their arrival and recep-
ton, they proceeded to Washington,
where they were received by the Dem
ocratic Association of that city, in
a manner worthy of their high stations,
and honorable to the Association.
&C. The last Romney Intelligencer
publishes the names of about 800 per-
sons, "who are entitled to vote at our
next spring election by virtue of the.
deeds. made by .Aagas W Mcdonald,
Esq" More than two hundred of
the persons thus made voters by Mr.
Med. are inhabitcnts Of Hardy coun-
ty. We would not object to an adj
vantage, gained over US by the wings,
honorable--an advantage
obtained by the conversion of the peo-
pie to their principles; but we confess
that we do not like the idea of the
Democratic county of Hampshire being
by the Federal of
