Our candidats for the Legislature, George

elected in this district by handsome majori-
ties. Columbia, Mon,our and Sullivan

coming TO the rescue and thus saving US
from what, otherwise, would have been
most humiliaiing defeat We promise 10
return the favor with interest, should they
ever be pI laced in circumstances similar 10

amount to millions OF dollars per annum.

may be said that what is now paying for
'brass bands that blow so nightly in dress
parades and in 'serenading Generals
would have support ed the Navy OF The Uu-
tied States, as ii stood few years since.

The Election,

The returns of the election are not suffi-
cient TO determine the political complexion
Ct The Legislature but il is certain that the
Democrats have gained largely, and possibly
elected a majority to the House of Repre-
senlatives. We have never known an elec
ZION of which il was so difficult 10 obtain
the returns. The Democrats have gained
Senator in Philadelphia, one in Schnyl
kill, and, in all probability, one in Mont
somefy and one in Bucks. The current 4
the vote throughout the State is decidedly in
favor of the Democratic party, and indicates
that il is destined to control the politics
of this State in the future.
