If ne aufheieniIy numerous and it presumes,
sufficiently accurate to show that Mr.. Wise is
elected Governor of that State, and the tenor
OF our Virginia Exchanges, of all shades of
politics, leads US to believe that it is nov
merely a question of majorities. In regard
to the Congressional elections, there is rea.
son to believe that tho following gentlemen
are elected, viz: Thos. II. BayIy, John. S.
Caskie, Pawlus Powell, WIN. Smith, Alex. r.

Henry. A. Edmundson, and Fayette McSlul-

has obtained, but it is at present mere guess
work. In few days we shall probably re-.

CAL1FoRNIA.-An interesting fugitive slave
case was decided ut San Jose on the 18th of
April. The slave was n boy who had been
taken to California from Tennessee, by his

State constitution, and has remained there
ever since. The Court, after n hearing, dis
charged the slave, and declared him free I'M

inquest. The verdict was that McJar1es was
killed by Phillips. A meeting was then reg.
ularly organized, and the question was put
whether Phillips should be handed over to the
regular authorities or tried by Lynch law
The decision was in favor OF the latter. A
jury oftwelve men were empanneled, n coup
lie of persons were assigned as counsel for
the accused; the evidence was heard; the ju-
ry found Phillips guilty of the killing; the
meeting resolved that he should be hung at

This vast sum OF ST. ,674,S67, is only the
amount Of specified appropriations. The great
mass of contingent objects Of expenditure, of
which the sums were ascertaned and could
not be specified, may swell the grand total
Of the expenses Of the year to perhaps seven
ty,fve millions of dollars. Although the
Government expenses must necessarily in.
crease with the growth Of the country and
the corresponding necessities Of the public
service, one Gun hardly imagine the necessity
of so vast an augmentation of the necessary
expenses Of the Experiment as secenty.fre
millions Of dollars; and the immensity of the
sum must arrest the attention of every intel.

THE FUTURE.


The Columbus (Ga.) Enqurer, Of the goth
ult, has a significant article, from which we
take the following extracts
The political horizon not only Of our own
State, but Of the whole country, presents but
gloomy and uncertain aspect At no period
of our history, perhaps, within quarter of q
century, has the field Of politics been so OBJ
scured by the mists Of doubt, and the pros
pect beyond been less clearly defined. What
course shall we persuei Where shall we goi
seems to be the anxious enquiry on all hands.
While, upon the one hand, the power and
force of party association, with an influence
almost Irresistible, leads to the maintenance
of old organizations, on the other the un.
faithfulness of party leaders and party allies
equally counsels rigid inquisition into the
integrity of the professions and platforms
upon which il is proposed to rally the friends
OF n common cause. A glance ut the history
of the past convinces us that the ancient ma
tional organizations are not TO be relied on
for the maintenance Of the rights and inter-
ests of the South. The great preponderating
anti-slavery sentiment which pervades both
Wing and Democratic parties at the North,
and which has heretofore been the cohtroll-
ing element of political strife, renders long
err utilization with either, both unwise and
unsafe. AS we have heretofore said, hence
forth the reliance of the South must be in the
South, and in the pnbroken front which che
may present to her adversaries upon every
occasion where any, even the least important,
of her rights are menaced. Upon this plat.
form she can stand in the proud conscious.
ness of the integrity of her position, aud
while she boldly defies her enemies from
whatever quarter they may come. she can
within the borders Of strictest selfrespect
extend the hand of fellowship to all who are
disposed to accord to her the full measure
of her rights.
