stand as they did in the last Legislature and we have
gained two in SuHy, having carried all the COmmon

the Senatorial District of SuTy and Ashe, nor from
Ashe; but we incline to think we have gained one
1t least-either in the election of COL Bower over
Mr.. Mcmillan to the Senate, or Commoner in Ashe.
