The Elections.

NORTH CARoL1SA-A Telegraphic Dispatch
from Raleigh on Friday evening claims the cleo
ton Of Charles Manly, Wing, as Governor, by 800
majority, with Wing majority Of t'ro in Joint
Ballot Of the Legislature. As the other side have
no dispatch, this is likely TO be true. If so, the
Wings have escaped defeat by the skin Of their
teeth, and viii not again be caught opposing Con-
stitutional Reform very soon.
ILLINoIs.-There is a report by Telegraph from
Cincinnati that J. Y. Scammon, Wing, has beaten
John Wentworth in the Chicago District by foar
majority. We doubt it, The engagement of the
Telegraph on Foreign News yesterday afternoon
and evening prevented our verifying this report
Col. f. d. Baker, Wing, is said TO be ele cited in
the Gaena District by 800 majority. Thus at
least four Of the seven Members elect from this
State will be Volunteers returned from the Mexi-
can War-namey Bissell, Richardson, Harris
Locos) and Baker, Wing. There ia n report that
another Marshall, Wing is chosen in the place o.
McClernand but it decidedly wants confirmation
However, four out OF the seven argues well for
Gen. Taylors chance.
