PoIIrIcAL NEws.--An election was held
in Texas on the 9th inst, and yet no news
was received in this State of that election
until it came by due course of mail The
only reason for this is, that Texas went
Democratic, and the papers of the indepen-
dent telegvaphic monopoly here preferred that
this news should not be known until after
our judicial election. In Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Iowa elections were held on the 12lh
inst, but there was no definite news tec-
graphed, except that they had gone largely
Republican. There are many people who
think that the Democrats gained largely in
those States simply because tho news was
withheld. We suppose, now that our cleo
tions are over, that in the elections to be
held in other States, we will get the news
promptly.
