Virginia Election.

The election for members Of Congress and the
State Legislature. was held. in Virginia, on Thurs
dav Of last week. We have not received full re-.
turns. but enough is known to warrant Us in saying
that the triumph for the democracy Is complete.
The news is that the democrats have gained
three members Of Congress. The notorious John
M. Bolts, the man who slept with Capt. Tyler, is
defeated by q democrat The 18th district his
elected democrat--.F Fulton, whig, represented II
in shs last Congress, having run in between two
democrats. The other gain is probably in the 18th
district, which was represented In the last Congress-
by VIM. B. Preston. the present Secretary Of the
Navy. Newman, DEMOCRAT. is said to be elected
ia the Wheeling. 18th district, by about 100 ma
,Sority. DisaHection in the democratic ranks came
very near serving Mr.. Newman as the democratic
candidate was served In the 18th district in this
State, last fall
Ohio county sends James s. Wheat, whig, to the
House Of Delegates Without opposition.
Marshall sends Garrison Jones, whig. This Is
. whig gain. II "democra.ic" (!) Marshall is to
DO represented BY . whig, we would as soon see
eur old friend Jones elected as any other whig we
know in that county. Marshall must do better
next time. C4

znocrats, were the candidates West Is elected
So says verbal report.
A. far as heard IRON the indications are that The
House Of Delegates will be largely democratic.

State, situated like Ohio. which pays sx or seven

subject assumes an svershadowing importance un.

year, with one Of the Cincinnati banks, they divide
oil their profits In the way Of salaries to their rich
stockholders they pay no taxes Now, gentle read

We have debt Of twenty millions Of dollars, con.
