The returns of the recent election as far as heard
FROM foot up as follows on the vote for Governor viz

SO says the Yermont Watchman, (whig) The Green
Mountain Freeman, (Van Buren) makes the House
1o2 Taylor, SO Cass so Va Buren,, giving the wings
10 less than majority in the House, and less on
joint ballot. The discrepancy arises through some
free soil wings beeg counted as for Taylor by the one
meets on the second Thursday in October, and the
vote for Governor will then show who is right
MAINE.
The vote of 26S towns gives the following aggregate
---ls4S- ---1S47

Danas plurality. a, 9l5 Dana's plurality. 4,973
House-Taylor 65, Cass 81, Van Buren, 10; to come
in rs. Cass now behind but will have majority.
NEW JERSEY.
Some OF the democratic papers assert that the free
soil movement In New Jersey will benefit the Cas- and
Butler electoral ticket the ground that many more
the whg Quakers will vote for the latter preference
to Taylor. On the contrary leading and active
Jersey wing considers the free soil decidedly
favorable to the of the Taylor ticket in that
State. Alexander Wurtz, who Is at the head of the
Van Buren, electoral ticket has been of the lead
ing democrats in New Jersey and went for Polk and
Dallas in ls44. He Is sustained by numerous other
prominent men Of the same party The Friends, or
Quaker who have heretofore voted with the whg party
as far as from prefer Taylor to the other
candidates for the Presidency
The Clay movement in New Jersey, so far as our
inquiries have extended does not amount to much;
our informant thinks not enough to affect the result in
the State.

OF the five counties to come in only Green existed
in "A, and that gave Clay 81, Polk 2oe We may fairly
presume that they have now given enough to swell
Newtons vote to 10000 Johnsons to Is 600 We think
that, although Gen. Taylor is popular in Arkansas,
Gen. Cas- is sure enough Of the vote of the State
PENNSYLVANIA.
The Pennsylranian, says the democrats of the 18th
Congressional district composed Of the ourishing and
popuous democratic counties Luzerne Columbia and
wyoming have nominated two persons for Congress- SO
that one ederast may the district for
more years We are grieyed at this state OF affairs,
before the election The nominees Samuel P. Col
lings of Luzerne by Luzerne and Hendrick b. Wright
Of Euzerne, by Columbia and Wyoming. This dispute
BY the following, from the same paper, IL appears
that the independent or Rough and Ready electoral
ticket which was nominated before the meeting of the
Wing National Convention, has been withdrawn,
some time since informed would be the case.
The ticket withdrawn, however, we understood, was
not nominated by any party exclusively.
MysTERIousLy MissiNo.-The Nativist Taylor cleo
toral ticket has been very quietly taken down
from the only nativist paper now In existence In
this city, the Daily Sun IL has been missing
for weeks. 1t has gone, and made no
sign. What has become of 1t? Has some foreigner
carried 1t eff to parts unknown Or Is 1t concealed
among the letters of General Tayor-his private cor
respondence in the hands Of his natvist friends. Will
not some good Christopher Columbus start out on a
voyage discover where this important ticket Is to be
found?
The truth is this fact is only another proof that
the nativist leaders have already made the bargain
with the wings, which they expect to consummate in
October and November.
The Pennsylvania says :-Pennsyvania Is one Of
the States that intends adding few to the Demo
cratic delegation in Congress. We think there Is not
doubt that We will gain at least nine members OF
Congress in October, in this State alone.
NEW YORK.
The six candidates for Governor and Lieutenant
Governor all are, or have been, lawyers.
