ELECTIONS.

Elections have recently been held in several
States. The news has been looked for with in
tcrest as aifording the only satisfactory data for
settling the long mooted question "IIavc we a
Wing party among us? 2" The organization of
that political body is yet continued. This is as
we had anticipated, although large portion of
the press, not excepting some Of the leading
wing journals of the country, have since Novem-
Der last looked upon its resurrection as being
an impossibility. So long as men are to be
found in any considerable numbers who are in
capable of entertaining adequate ideas of the cx-
pansive power of the American people and of
their consequent future necessities, mon who
have no sympathy with the liberal and progress
i've spirit of the age--the friends of old monop-
olies and arbitrary restrictions on industry, so
long Will there be an organized opposition more
or 4 powerful to the ruling power of the ma
ton The distinctive features of this opposi-
ton will be the same as heretofore, and occa-
sions will not be wanting in the course of events
for calling out its spirit of hostility to the well
settled policy of the country. The late revers-
GO VI VIC "iiiS P"lty arc iOt uHpdIHIlcIeu-
They arc such as it has been usual to record
when party merits alone have been at issue, as
was the case last fall and at most of the recent
late State elections.
Our latest intelligence under this head may
be summed up as follows Tennessee, the strong
hold of whiggcry, chooses a democratic Gov
crnor by 1000 majority. Kentucky and Ten
ncssec each elect five democratic and five wing
Congressman, which is the same as last year.
In North Carolina and Alabama there have boon
democratic gains. The returns from Missouri
SO far show n wing majority which is owing 10
the Benton fcud. Texas is thoroughly demo-
cratic, and in Oregon, Gov. Lane, dem, is chosen
delegate to Congress by ,550 majority
~ By referring to our marine lists it will
be seen that the number of arrivals and depart
uros at this port has been small for few weeks
past as compared with the earlier part of the
season. Freight is scarce This is owing in Il
great measure, we are told, TO the low stage Of
water in the river, which prevents the rafting of
lumber from mills up country

The MoRM0Ns.-Recent accounts from the
Great Salt Lake represent the Mormons as be-
ing in n state of dissension that threatens the
explosion Of the whole system and the extinct
ion of the atter-day saints rs a religious order.
There are backslidings from the faithful, and the
armies Of converts who move across the plains
to join the brethren at the New Jerusalem,
dwnde away by desertion, like the first follow
crS of Peter the Hermit. Tares are springng
up among the true Mormon wheat, which are the
sowing of satan under the shape of man,--ono
GLADDEN. Bishop. His followers are called Glad
denites. This man impiously assumes to be as
much of prophet as ever the sainted 10 Smith
was. lie also breaches the ridiculous hcresy
that man ought not to have MS many wives as
he may choose to render social life happy with
These and other obnoxious doctrines are an Of
fence in tho nostrils of those who cling to the
carly faith Of the saints, and gricvous stone in
the boots of Mormon progress

We cannot resist the conviction, however, that

scented by certain interested parties and news
