Whatever doubt might have existed for short
period as to the effect of the Presidential nomi-
nations on the two great political parties in Ten
nessee, the evidences are now pouring in thick
and fast that that gallant State, acting upon a
deliberate conviction Of the great worth and
undoubted patriotism and purity Of the Wing
nominees, will give to our candidates an over
whelming support in the election OF November
next. In Justification Of this opinion, we al
most daily receive letters containing assurances,
of which the following extract of u recentlet-
ter from Shelbyville affords fair specimen:
"scott will carry this State by a sweeping ma
jority. There 10 lees disafection, and far greater
enthusiasm, in our party in this State. than have
ever before been known in Presidential canvass.
Our electors for the State, Henry and Haskell, are
doing brilliant service. A. v. Brown met Has
kell at several appointments, but was so much
worsted in each encounter that he has backed off.
"All is we'll in Tennessee; you may rest assured
of that. Look out for q good report from her in
November"

Congress.

In the Senate yesterday the Civil and Diplo-
matte Appropriation bill was considered till one
o'clock, when it was postponed. The River
and Harbor bill was debated till nearly ten
o'clock, when the Senate adjourned.
The House of Representatives, during the
morning hour, considered the Senate bill pro-
viding for the better security of the lives Of
passengers on steamboats,, and adopted reso-
luton for the appointment of a committee to
investigate all the facts touching the connection
Of the Secretary Of the Treasury with the
Gardiner claim. Several bills were passed,
including one making appropriation for the
steam ocean mail service for the current year.

Military School at Drennon Springs, Ky.
We have received copy of the official
register of the "Western Military Institute"
at Drennon's Lick, in Kentucky, which, it
appears, contains one hundred and sixty six
cadets. The common and civil law are taught
In this institution by Judge Monroe, who has
recently accepted the professorship, and de
grees of Bachelor of Law are conferred. This
military school, under efficient management,
appears to be winning very high reputation.
Its range Of instruction, while fitting it's pu-
pills for most of the walks of civil life, is admi-
rably adapted to the genius of our institutions,
which requires that every citizen shall be a
soldier at need, and therefore should have
military education. The institution is incor-
porated by the Legislature of Kentucky, and
is annually inspected by board of visitors ap-
pointed for that purpose by the Governor of
the State.

become Of the Democratic members Of the
House Of Representatives from the State of
MAINE. They are not in their seats. 1t is
rumored that they have become anxious about
the condition Of affairs, politically, in their

and called them from the House during the
week into which all the important business Of

RAILaoAD DAMAesD BY RAIN.-The heavy rain
on Sunday morning did considerable damage to
the railroad between Philadelphia and Baltimore,
washing away portions of the road at two points
six and eleven miles from the latter city. The Bal
timore American Of yesterday says: 49,
"In consequence Of the DANA &c the train could
not 60 out last night, and the passen and mails
were despatched BY the boat via Frenchtown and
New Castle" .. ...' la.,EE l,tl0r ~
We received no papers last evening east of Bal

the mails: ..s ...,.., ,al,t.,s, .....
elm consequence of the heavy rain on Saturday
night carrying away one or two portions Of the
railroad between this city and the Gunpowder
river, the mails and passengers will be conveyed
by the steamboat line between this city and Phla-
dephia. There were two boats sent out this morn
ing, but we learn that no mail will leave this If.
ternoon, the road will not be passable and there
is no boat to be had, 90 both the boats wero de-
spatched in the morning TO breakdown.

Iowa Election.
Full returns have not yet reached US as to the
late election in Iowa. The Locofoco State ticket

a majority can readily be overcome in Novem

ed, beating vie!e. (whig.) and running ahead of
his ticket. His majority is not yet known.
The Iowa Senate 10 composed Of 81 members. and
the House Of 6. In the last Legislature the
Wings had four Senators and five Representatives.
So far 40 heard from, at the recent election, our
advces are, that the Wings have elected fourteen
Senators, and feel quite sure of two more. The
Locofocos have elected fifteen. This would give
the Wings majority in the Senate.
We have heard Of the election of % Wings to the
House of Representatives, and of ~ Locofocos; but
the further returns will give the Locofocos proba
bly,, majority of ten or twelve on joint ballot.
Had it not been for the Freesoi votes in the Whg
counties Of Henry, Jefferson, and Washington
where the great folly was committed of running
Union or Independent tickets, operating solely to
the advantage of the Locofocos-the Legislature
would have been Whig, and the election Of a Wing
United States Senator secured. In several coun-
ties, also, the Wings lost members by from two to
thirteen votes.
Notwithstanding these defections, the Wings
have done well-nobly-and another election will
show that Iowa is a Wing State. In this result
there 10 every thing to encourage our political
friends; aud we are cheered by the accounts which
they give of the prospect in the Presidential race
They intend to carry the State for Scott, and this
election has Satisfied them Of their ability to do it.
Scott's name is a tower of strength and with such
devoted Wings as Iowa contains, and the certainty
that Pierce can do nothing, a. President, to ad-
vance her interests in the improvement Of her riv
and the assistance to be given to her railroads.
we feel an abiding confidence that Scott and Ora
ham will receive the vote Of this young, thrifty
and prosperous State.
