THE ELECTION.

Although the vote Of every county has not
yet been reported, enough is now certainly
known to show the result, and to enable us
to know very nearly the Democrats majority,
not only for the Governor, but in the Gen.
errl Assembly. That result may be stated
thus: For Governor. the majority for John-
son is not far from $500; to the Legislature,
"a Democrats, and l6 Wigs are elected to
the senate--and to the House Of Delegates,
81 Democrats. ard SIS Wigs. Three coun-
ties remain to be correctly heard from. but
they win no. make the majority for Cover.
nor differ much from the above. For this
defeat, it would be idle and useless to pour
out our regrets. We may only refer to the
bosoms Of all true Whigs--of all who, regard
ing the high interests Of the State, and its
advancement and prosperity. as Of far great
or moment than the mere temporary success
OF FEDERAL party--haye striycd to promote
those high interests by placing at our head
leader able and willing to devote himsclfto
those objects. But. however deeply we may
lament the result VIC will not he guilty Of the
injustice ofcondcmuing the in coming admin
istration in advance, and untlied We shall
hope the best from the Governor elect, and
mono will yield to him appreciation and sup
port on oil occasions of just and proper ad-
minisiration, more fully and freely than we
shall. 80 Richmond Wing.

INTERESTING FROM ITALY

The correspondent Of the Newark Adyer
User, Genoa. November "a, } writes that the
U. S. Friga.e Independence, Commodore
Morgan, dropped down to Spezzia some
days ago. She will probably winter at Ma
pies, where some apprehension exists an
outbreak before spring. in which case the
presence Of The aag-s5iy might be important
10 the many American citizens residing there.
The letter adds:
The Sandman feet, Com. Arcoiieres,
comprising four vessels Of war. have come
INFO this port since my last after cruise in
the Mediterranean. The officers contribute
much to the gsiety Of social intercourse
Business is also rcvving, and we entertain
the hope Of having direct steamship COM
munica,ion with New York before the open.
ing Of the next summer. The City Coun.
ellis have Just resolved to petition Pariia-
mcnt 10 make this free port, and il thought
that It will be done.
In consequence Of some recent popular
demonstrations in the Island Of Sicily, the
King Of Naples has reinforced the army
tbeer, and il would not be surprising if be
should have occasion, during the winter. to
call upon his forces in his own city. Fol
,he people Of all the absolute government,
in this quarter. will doubtless make anoth-
er attempt for emancipation, al the first mo-
ment that may seem 10 promise success
The prevailing feeling is more and more ex
asnera,ed by fresh cases OF arrest and i'm
prisonmen, Tor supposed political opinion. =
The prisons are every where crowded
with political prisoners. and the slightest in
cidents are seized upon as grounds Of pros
ecution.
