CONGRESSIONAL ELECTION.

Congress after great waste OF time and
money, has at last elected Clerk, or rather
reelected the old clerk, Mr.. Campbell of
Tennessee, whig. This result was brought
about by the votes Of eight Southern demo-
Gratis, who have convenient mode of lay
ing aside their chiyslry when the North is
to be sacrificed to the South. We do not,
however, feel much sympathy for Mr.. For
ney the democratic nominee. He has been
trucking for years past to the South, and
has been rewarded as every man deserves to
be who will sacrifice every thing at the
shrine of party and of self. Zoo "a. |o.l'
Mr.. A. J. Glossbrenner Of the York Ca
zette, has been elected Sergeant-at-Arms
on the second ballot. We are pleased TO
hear Of the promotion OF friend Glossbren-
ner, whom we know to be in every way
competent for the duties ofthe Office.
