VIRGINIA ELEcTIoN.-The annual election in
Virginia, took place yesterday. Contest has been
animated, and the result cannot be very disastrous
TO the Wings. In the late Congress they had one
out of the fifteen Representatives from that State.
The Legislature was strongly LocoiocO in both
branches. So that, although we have little hope
Of being enabled TO announce to our readers a
Wing triumph in the "Old Dominion" we have
no fears of disastrous defeat.

excellent qualities, and while my feelings are
still fresh, 10 express the desolaton which his un.
timely loss and that Of other kindred spirits has

| had but casual acquaintance with your son,
until he became for time member Of my mill
itary family, and can truly say, that no one ever
won more rapidly upon my regard, or establish

Manly and honorable in every impulse, with no
feeling but for the honor Of the service and Of the
country, he gave every assurance that in the hour
Of need could lean with confidence upon his
support. Nor was | disappointed. Under the
guidance of himself and the lamented Mckee,
galantly did the sons Of Kentucky in the thick.

that feel no exutaon in our success.
With the expression of my deepest and most
heartfelt sympa,hies for your rreparable loss, |
remain, my dear sir, most faithfully and sincere
