Bartlett, K. N, by 2l3 majority. Robt. Gambile,
Dem, G. G. c., over John Ray, by 403 majority.
Elections in Kentucky, Texas, Missouri, Ala
bama and Tennessee.
The House of Representatives of Kentucky will
be Democratic, but the Senate will be tied, owing
to the fact tina. several f. n Senators hold over
under former elections.
The majority for Mr. Garrard, the Democratic
Candidate for State Treasurer will be 10000
The Democrats have carried eight out of the ten
members of Congress-
In Texas the Democratic majority will be from
twelve to fifteen thousand. Runnes has defeated
Houston for Governor, and this, presume, places
the latter in private life for the remainder of his
days. He deserted the old jackson party, and
"verily he hath his reward All the members
elected to the Legislature are Democrats. Texas
mored that Maj Ben. McCuloch will be of
them.
The Washington Union thus sums up the result
in Tennessee:
1--WE had counted largely upon the generous and
enthusiastic democracy of Tennessee but the result
thus far of their indomitabe efforts far exceeds our
most sanguine expectations. The indications are
that notwithstanding the which attended the
gerrymandering efforts of the know -nothings few
years ago. the democrats have carried both branches
of the State legislature by decided majorites, thus
securing the election of t0 United States senator's
1t is believed that the majority for Gen. Harris the
democratic candidate for governor, will exceed ten
| thousand.
The delegation to the next Congress will probably
| stand seven democrats to three know -nothings-a
democratic gain of two"
The Democrats have swept every thing in Ala
bama. They have elected every member of Con-
| gress. Even the City of Mobile heretofore one of
the K. N. strongholds, has given majority of 400
for the Democrats.
1t was thought, at one time, that Rollins, the K.
n and black Republican, had carried Missouri over
the Democratic candidate for Governor; but later
returns have placed the result in doubt The
Western counties of the State, bordering Kansas,
had not all been heard from. They are largely
Democratic Two years ago they saved the election
of Gov. Polk, after many of his friends had given it
up The chances are now in favor of the Demo-
Gratis.
To give our readers some idea of the combinations
formed against the Democracy in Missouri Pennsyl-
vania, and other States, copy the following from
the Philadelphia Sun of Monday last. The Sun
supports Wimot for Governor and Mllward, once
