The State Elections,

We give, under our Geographic head, returns OF
the elections in Kentucky and North Carolina, as
fully as they came 10 hand up to the hour of our
going to press, and shall continue to publish them
from these and other States, from day 10 day, as
rapidly as they may be received. These returns
critically scanned by politicians of all parties,
for by their complexion an opinion may be formed
Of the comparative strength of the two great parties
into which the people of this country are divided.
These elections, and the proceedings of the Buffalo
Convention, are the most interesting domestic
topics that now agitate the public mind of the
United States. The Buffalo Convention is i'm
portant only for the influence which 1t will exer-
N favor of or against or the other parties. The
nominee of that body will not probably get the
electoral vote of single State IN the Union; but he
can by the ght of the votes which may be thrown
for him. incline tie balance In favor of either Gen.
Taylor or Gen. Cass, as the case may be, in the
tree States. In New York, if Mr. Van Buren,
should be nominated. he will of course stand no
chance of getting the electoral vote, but he sub

party, 10 give the State to General Taylor We

Several negro delegates have arrived from Ohio,

THE IRISH REVOLUTION Strong hopes are en-
ertained here that the Irish will be able to prevail
IN the contest that seemed to be inevitable at the
sailing of the last steamers but the history of thelas
five or six centuries has done nothing but enable
the English government to continue its dominion
in Ireland. The policy pursued by O'Connsll for
whole lifetime, was calculated to weaken the
spirit of the people. and make them suffer pa
tienty under the prospect of obtaining impossible
reforms in words; reforms which meant nothing
but patronage and pelf, for himself, family, and
dependents. But there is another idea which dis
poses the calm thinker to hesitate, before he can
believe in the success OF any attempt of Ireland to
regain her independence and freedom. In every
country where successful revolution has taken
place, the people of such country have been ami
mated by some strong sentiment, sometimes re-
Hgiois, sometimes political, sometimes half the
one and half the other. The first revolution in
England was a social, political, and religious
revolution, all combined, and forming one ter
rible and energetic idea, which made the reve-
luton Of those days as fierce and unit as the
discipline Of years axes regular army
The same remark will apply TO every revolution
in France, and in every other part of the world
We are much afraid that the Irish want some great
enobng, preponderating feeling or sentiment, that
will supply the place of disciplined unity of pur-
pose and action, which has always heretofore, as
we have seen in the old English and French revo-
lutions, prevailed against the military hordes of
the day. Another element against the success of
the Irish PATRIOTS is the fact that all the Irish ars-
tocracy, the landed proprietors, the men of pro-
perty and intelligence, are most of them in league
with the British Government. 1t is not separa-
ton between the people and the government alone
that sought; ii is separation of class from class,
a separation of the poor from the Iich, of Catholic
from Protestant If these modern Irish patriots
can organize their numerous clubs, and make
them act with some patriotic sentiment, as SUBJ
sutute for military tactics, they may be able to
withstand the forces that the government can bring
against them. We shall wait with fear and trem-
bling for the result.

HUDsoN's BAY SPECULATIoN.-There has been
a most extraordinary proposition made by the
Hudson's Bay Company, to Congress That hope
full concern of British spectators, who endeavored
TO prevent our acquisition of Oregon, during the
pending of the negotiations, is now endeavorng to
swindle Congress out of million of dollars, for
what they call their property within the limits of
the territory south of 40 deg. We are informed,
from what we believe to be an accurate source,
that the whole property of the Hudson Bay Com
pany, within the American territory, does not
amount, in value, to one hundred thousand dollars,
instead of million but it is very probable that,
by the application of the usual weapons and en-
gines of corruption, by which these SPECTATORS
have managed to feather their nests out of the
British Parliament, they will endeavor to
succeed In carrying their object through the Ame-
ncan Congress. To pass such an act, would be
gross and atrocious job, and we trust there are
independent and right thinking men IN Congress
who will probe 1t to the bottom before it goes
through both houses. The British spectators in
that territory capable of anything. They have,
no doubt, deceived the Executive and the Secre-
tary of State, and will deceive Congress, too if
any chance be given to them to do so.
