To the Editor Of The Tribune
The returns of the Elections in NEW YORK and
NEw-JERsEY which have come to hand are terrible
for the Loco.Focos to bear They are astounded
and know not what to make OF it all 1t seems
that it raiaed on the day of Election in NewYork
and New Jersey as it did when Pennsylvania voted
Did the rain keep the NewYork Loco ocos from
voting How were the voters of the Five Points
affected by it
Up to this moment q O'Clock P. NJ we have re,
ccived no returns to-day through the Magnetic Tel
esraph although the wires have been in order
through TO New-York This is quite too bad and
has caused the whole town almost to stand on
tip.toe to learn the best and others the worst
of the matter.
The Telegraph last night at 10 o'clock brought
the news from Philadel phia of the result in some
ten or twelve Counties III NewYork. and in almost
all the Counties OF New Jersey Ii also stated that
ii Wings and s Loco Focos had been elected to
Congress as .ar rs heard from. This morning Mr..
BoGARDuS of the New York Custom House ar
rived and learn reported the election OF ~ w mGs
to Loco Focos as far as had been heard from
when he left your city.
And here the matter has rested up to this hour.
We do not even know whether WILLIS HALL is
elected Clerk OF your County. or no-but trust that
he is.
The Government has reduced the price OF post
age on its Magnetic Telegraph between this city
and Baltimore rbict IS seldom out 81 order very
materially while the rates OF the Stock Company
Telegraph from Washington to Newly DIRK, and
which is often, too often out oil order have been
increased after the first 100 words which cost -,
the same as ever from 81 66! for each succeeding
hundred, 10 81 81
1t is understood here that Mir Secretary BIT
cHASAx has written letter to friend or
hc tokas i,lpi
ground arains, the expcdiency and utility OF the
Tariff of lsi6. He advocates a more gradual re
ducton The letter is written with view to place
its author ahead of his rival Mr.. DALLAS IN the
matter of some future nomination understand
Mr. BUCHANAN states that he would have written
this letter before. but did not wish TO DC charged
with design to influence the Election recently
held in Pennsylvania II is quite reasonable to IN
fer that the result OF that Election caused HIM 10
write rather than 10 refrain from writing the aiore
said epistle Some of his friends say he need not
leave the Cabinet after writing such letter But
many OF the supporters OF the Administrator VIII
be vehement to have him leave the Cabinet after
any letter of that tenor from him makes It's appear
ance.
Ii is currently rumored here that Mr. Secretary
WAIVER finds it very hard to get his offered Trea-
sury Notes aud Treasury Scrip taken up by the
CAPITALISTS. simply because said capitalists know
that he comes from repudiating state Misslsslp,
pi and therefore they are afraid OF him. as Wen
as of Mr. Polk, who repudiated the French Spoi.a,
ton passed by Congress at its last session. NO
doubt there issome truth In the sumor n,
