The following extract is from another letter
Of the same correspondent, and gives us the
result of the ballotiugs on Wednesday:
The scattering vote fur United States Sena-
tor given yesterday left the question as en-
trely open as before. There were little groups
If members to be seen last night in cunsuIta-
ton in various quarters. but there appeared
to be but little TOR them tn discuss, the issues
being mostly personal. In Consequence OF
the numerous votes cast by different delega-
tons for the candidate from their respective
counties (which were only intended as COM
pimentsry,) the result yesterday is not con-
sldered indicative nf the real views aud ulti-
mate action of members. Vickers, Dennis
aud Henry are regarded as being in the lead.
The vote to-day shows MIR. Vickers ahead,
with 20 votes, and Mr.. Dennis next. with %
votes. There were absent or not voting one
Senator and five Delegates.
The following is tho joint result of each
vote of both Houses:
