rbe Nc,y Hanover Election.

The most surprising event which has occur
red in the politics Of this State for many years,
is the result Of the special election in New Ha-
mover for a Commoner, to Oil the vacancy occa-
stoned by the resignation Of Judge Person. A
Democratic meeting, or convention, in VIII
m;ngtoo, had nominated DIR. p. VI. Walker as
the regular Democratic candidate, an he had
accepted the nomination Although some dis
content was expressed in the county, to all ap-
pcarsnces, 10 us at distance at least up TO
the day of election the prospect was that DR..
Walker would be elected without serious oppo-
sitisn, The Journal, il is truo, manifested some
uacasiness, and pretty roundIy denounced, in
to the mountaineering them Ramshaskie
Democrats, &c.; but this, we thought, would
prove to be unnecessary alarm. On the day Of
election, however, the name Of Dugaid MIMI
Ian, esq, was announced as gentleman who
would consent to serve if elected and sure
enough, Mr.. MsMillan was elected. The ofi-
cial roturns, gwen in tbs Herald, show that
M.Millan received GIL votes, and Walker 326----
M'MilIan beating nearly two to ONE! Mr..
M.Millan is Democrat, from the county, and
is represented to be a man Of character and
worth. The Rtmssackte Democrats. as the
Journal designates those who would not sup
port DIR. Walker, judging from this election,
seem 70 be the stronger party in Now Hanoi
yer.
