OF" Common Sense against The Maine
Law" is the taking title of campaign
paper published at Columbus, Ohio,--Tn
common with others ofthat school ii Is "as
much in favor Of temperance as any other
man'-still its articles don't look much like
1t, if we may Judge from the one before US.
II seems determined to labor vuliantly and
with zeal worthy of better cause for the
defeat Of the Maine Law In this State;
judging from its vehemcnce we presume he
thinks it will succeed. This by the way,
however.
Perhaps you forgot Mr.. Common Sense"

in the Belmont county papers; would it not
be as well to tell your readers as much SO
that they may know the origin of that great
light in your columns.

from Halifax, with important dispatches from
the fishing grounds. Commodore Pauldinp

The steamer Princeton arrived at Halifax
on the 18th instant.
An American fishing schooner had been
captured by the British and carried to Charlie
stown by the English steamer Devastation.
She, however, was subsequently released.
The Captain of the schooner Andah,
(American,) at Kennebeck, reports that his
vessel was Intentionally run into by the
Devastation on the 18th ult., causing much
damage. He intends to protest against the
proceedings, and serious trouble is apprc-
hended-There is much feeling against the
British authorities.

WESTERN RAIL ROAD.

We are informed that the committee ap-
pointed at the Uniontown meeting of the
3oth July, to confer with the city of Wheel
ing on the subject Of this proposed improve
ment, visited Wheeling ON Saturday, last and
had an interview with committee of the
council of the city of Wheeling, and that the
committee feel confident that if one fourth
OF the amount necessary to complete the
work can be secured on Stock subscribed
west of the Ohio River, that one fourth can
be secured East of the River, and that that
amount will be a sufficient basis of credit on
which to raise the other half upon good
terms.
Mr.. Ellet, the chief Engineer of the Hemp
field Road, by invitation, was present and
fully expressed his views of the enterprise.
He regards it as one of great Importance to
Wheeling, to the Hempfeld & Baltimore
Rail Roads, to the cities of Philadelphia and
Baltimore, and work from which Stock
holders may safely calculate on liberal d.
vidends. In these views the Wheeling COM
mttee concarred. To the success of the
undertaking however we are informed, a
change in our Rail Road law is probably in
dispensible, ard this change, it is confidently
expected can be obtained, from the next
Legislature.

THE ELECTIONS OF LAST WEEK.

TENNEssEE.-We have telegraphic news
only from the Nashville district, in which
Felix X. Zoliicoffer, Wings, is elected to
Congress. 1t is confidently stated that
Gustavus A. Henry, Wing, is elected Gov
ernor of the State, over Andrew Johnson,
late Member of Congress.
KENTUcKY.--In the last Congress the
Kentucky Representatives &C insisted Of five
Wings and FIVE Democrats. To the next
Congress, six Wings and two Democrats are
known to be elected, leaving the result doubt
members elect are: Linn Boyd, Ben. Edw.
Grey, Presley Ewing, Il. E. Bramlette, Cle-
ment S. Hill, VIM. Preston, John C. Bre-
ckenbrdge, and Leander Nj. Cox. The dis
trcts in doubt are the sixth and tenth, in
which the candidates arc j. S. Pierce and
Geo. b. Hodge, Wings, and ]. M. Elliott and
Richard H. Stanton, Democrats. The Wings
have elected large majority of members to
the State Legislature.
From NORTH CAROLINA we learn that Mr..
Venable, Democrat, has lost his election, Mr..
Sion III. Rogers,a staunch hig,being chosen
in~his place. There was a second Democratic
candidate in the district, who received large
number of votes, and may possibly have
turned the election in favor of the Wing
candidate; but we have not seen the full re-
turns, and know not how that fact may be.
We have no party sympathies with Mr. Ven
able, but we may do him the justice to say
that his defeat will be serious loss to the
Democratic party in Congress. His talents
legislative experience, and attention to busi.
ness gave him weight and consideration with
his own party, and his personal independence
won much of the respect of his political op
ponents. We hear also of the election from
this State of Thomas Ruffin and VIM. s
Ashe, Democrats, and presume that Johr
Kerr and R. C.. Puryear, Wings, are likewise
elected, as they were candidates in districts
; where their party can command large ma
} jorities. In the three remaining districts
