Elections have ben held m North Ca- rona, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, aud Missouri. We are indebted 10 olr ex- changes for the following returns. We locked for North Carolina to do better than is reported; but ii is very fortunate that whig legislature in that State, cannot change the political complexion of the United States Senate .a

 NORTH CARoLINA.--In 3l counties heard from, GRAHAM (Whig) was ahead of SHEPARD S274 votes. This is Democratic loss of $500 since the last election. GRAHAM is probably elected by 5000 majority. For the Legislature the Wings have gained two Senators and one Cornmoner, and the Democrats have gained 3 CoInmoners. In the last Legislature the Sen> ate was tie and the Wings had majority of g in the Commons. Charleston Mercury.

 The reasons for this defeat are loo palpable and obvious to be overooked-lhey may be dis covered by the slightest glance at the votes of certain Counties. In our next we shall go at length into the causes ot whig success in North CaTolina.-R -Rale,gh Standard.
