give publish the following results Of the late
elections for congress from the National Intelligen
Ger. They are not SO tlattering as we could wish
but we suppose that the wings of the States hold
ing elections have thought it wise TO let the elec
ton go by default, and let the Democracy fall GU
by the way and prepare the way for them at the E.
lection in 1856. All will be well if we only give
the party in power an opportunity to hang itself

Democrats. Mr.. STANTON is elected, according 10
Democratic reports, bv ma jOrity of two votes,
VIII lie the Wings claim the election OF his W hg
competitor, EDw'N NJ. YERGER, by majority OF
seven votes. We know not which is right. There
Is also Snme doubt whether Mr.. CULLUM or his Op-
POnent, c. l.. GARDENmRE, is elected in the first

majority in the State Legs ature, upon which will
devolve the duty of eectng United States Sena-
