GLORIOUS VICTORY IN VIRGINIA.

Asss,S. Editors-Ihe Virginia election is tofer,

sIouai District, bat one, and beaten the Lesisla-

FIVE and ten Thousand nIaiofity the dark Ian
tern candidate ior Governor. 1t is SAID they have
lost mere than hundIe Ell thousand dollars in this
city alone. | think ths election has taught the lead
ers OF the sneakiRg party very useful lesson, and
that Is, that The binding ioice OF the oath of the
ORDER Is not sufficiently reliable 10 justify the Tsk Of
large sums OF uoney upon il. They have sWorp the
members oi the order deceive their opponents aud
instead OF dong that they deceived those who admin
Isiered the uatn. They relied the eic ieIc
OF the oa:h, and have lost their uoney--rsleed,
many of them reduced to poverty. The result OF
this election has demonstrated The fact, that the
boasted ErfHc6titg OF the s,invtsible party, which,
for time. struck terror into the Democratic ranks
has in reality existence. The Democracy the

The nation owes debt OF gratitude 10 Mr.. Wise,
for his bold, fearless and eloquent defence Of Demo-
cratic principles and measures and his nasteily and
irresistible exposition OF the anti-repuhcan, %ick-
ed purposes OF the dark lantern party. No other
in Virginia could have fought the battle, under all
the circumstances, with the signal success that he
has achieved, and it would seem that the ctrclfn-
stances which brought him into the field, at the pre-
sent fearful Crisis were truly providential.

Democratic ProSpectS.

The prospects of the Democratic Patty
were never brighter than they are Just now
Allthe indications on this point are clear and
unmisakeable. Pennsylvania will be redeemed
next fall beyond the shadow of doubt, thus Sc
curing Democratic u. S. Senator for the old
Keystone-and, the result Of the election in
Virginia settles the question Of the ueXt Presi-
dencv in favor of the Democracy, fact admit
ted by the New York Herald the leading organ
Of Know Nothngsm. All honest Democrats
who were declared will come back, and be trurr
to their former faith than ever-and, for every
disappointed ofice-seeker acs lose we will gain
ten honest men from the ranks OF the old Wing
line, who refuse to be- sold like cattle in the
market. There are now bat two parties in this
country-the Democratic and the Knotg .Noth-
ing. There is no neutral, no middle ground,
and all who do not rally under the Flag Of d.
mocracy, mast rally under the black Flag Of
Know Nothingism, no matter what their pro-
iessions. He that is not for US is against Us.

GEORGETOWN CORRESPONDENCE.
GEoRGErowN, Sept. q, 1855

News Of public character is unusually
scarce in our city at the present time. BusI-
ness, though steadily improving, is not so brii k
as we have seen it heretofore during the early
part of the fall but it is improving again,
and the impression is that it will continue 10
do SO until it equals, if not surpasses, what it
has been.
The religious revivals that have been in
progress for several weeks at each of our
Methodist churches appear to be increasing
AT both stations West Georgetown and Dam
barton street, the congregations nightly in at
tendance is large, and deep interest in the
work seems to characterize all present. At
the two places, last night, there could not
have been less than fifty seekers Of religion
at the altar.
The offerings Of beef cattle at Drovers' Rest
yesterday, amounted to some 300 head, all of
which were sold at S2.75aS3 S71 On the hoof,
equal to S5.50sS7.75 net-ayerage price gross
S3.3li, net S6.6lt. Sheep of good quality
are scarce and in demand Those offered we're
of rather inferior quality, and brought s2a
81. % per head.
The -four market remains steady at our last
quotations-S7 S7.aS9. Wheat-S1. 20 for red,
and S1.7j for white, Of good qualities.
