 WESTERN ELECTIONS.

 We have few scattering returns from the elections in Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana, Alabama, and North Carolina but not sufficient to warrant us in forming definite conclusions how they have gone. In all of them the contest has undoubtedly been severe and the ascendancy closely contested. The Wings have unquestionably gained one member in North Carolina, but whether they will not also lose is yet uncertain. In Alabama, Lewis the most ,Ueighty in Congress- (states' rights and whig) is reelected without serious opposition. In Tennessee, in the fa- nous Hermitage district are glad to learn that MT. BellSis re-chosen without opposition. And in Ken lucky, the indicate that whig (Southgate) is elected in Col Johnsons district, heretofore always the strong hold of Jacksonism, and where Col John- son has generally been elected by thousands!

 In Mississippi, Claiborne and Ghoson (tories) are undoubtedly elected by handsome majonty-proba- bly 1000.

 From Iennessee.-Hurrah for John Beu!-He is reelected to Congress for the Nashville district with out opposition! He is the member whom the old li- On'' was going down to devour. The Hermitage pre- cinct gave him l05 votes under the very of Old Hickory" For Governor, in this district, Cannon (whig) received lol votes. Armstrong, Van Buren candidate, whom it has been attempted to smuggle in under party colors, received only seDeneen Uoes- He is Gen Jackson's ca andidate In Davidson county

 9S- The Circuit Court for this county commenced it's session in this village Tuesday last-Judge BIs SELL. presiding We have not understood that there are many very important causes on the docket. The capital case will commence on Tuesday.

 At meeting of the Directors of the Phoenix Bank, at Hartford, on Thursday last, SAMuE1. TUDoR Esq. was chosen President, in place of Charles Sgourney, Esq resigned. MT. S. had been the President since the charter of the Bank in 1891.

 We sorry to many of our political co-labor- CTS attempting show that the wigs have not lost any thing in the recent election in Maryland, and a. mongs others good and generally correct friend of the New-Haven Palladium. 'Tis labor in vain-there is no use of attempting to make "the worse appear the better" We will recall to brother Babcock's mind one fact which we think will be conclusive, and request him turn to his files and see if he doec not find it so stated It is this: At the Presidential election last fall, 1t calculated by many that, election might be made by the people, the choice would devolve upon the House of Representatives and that in order to prevent the election of Mr. Van Buren, Maryland it was universally calculated upon would cast her vote against him, and in favor of Gen. Harrison Judge White. This of course could not be the if that state had been divided equally as she now is in her delegation She certainly was then ranked as a whig state, her vote being to g. We willing and anxious as any one to have all the whg strength to which are justly entitled but can see no advantage in claiming what we have not got, or are likely to get. Maryland has certainly dsap- pointed us and therefore think it extreme folly to reason ourselves into the belef against the fact that we now stand as well in the congressional delegation as betore the late election.

 The Regatta at Poughkeepsie took place on Friday last, and a splendid one. It is estimated there were 10000 people present to witness it. Six boats each manned by six rowers-were entered for the prize of $S0o-one of Poughkeepsie one from Brook lyn, one from Fishkil Landing and three from New York. Che celebrated "Wave" not amongst them)- The Poughkeepsie boat Washington, came in about 90 rods ahead of any of the others. For the second prize three boats started one from Brooklyn and two from New-York; the Brooklyn boat, which came in second the first trial was the beating boat in this scenes imaton to places the Hudson, and are visited by large numbers of people.

 We learn that man by the name of Hart commit ted suicide on Sunday last at Avon by cutting his throat with a razor.

 Foreig" Missions.-The christian public at Hart iord apprehensve that from the pressure of the times there might be falling off in the support usually gv. en to the cause ooreign missions determined to make special effort to sustain it. Accordingly, meeting of the different Congregational churches was held at the Monthly Concert the first Monday in July, and committees appointed to solicit subscriptions and do- nations And, instead of the usual sum of about to 5000 dollars, about $lOOO0 reported to the meet ing on the first Monday of the present month as the result of their exertions and believed that from 800 to 1000 more would be raised. This certainly is doing finely for the under the discouraging cir cumstances of the times and tells well for the bera- ty of old Hartford.

 In this village, we understand few ladies have been making little effort. with much better success than they anticipated before they commenced.

 L"cafed Vigilance Society.-We learn, as the re- suit ot our public inquiry last week. that this Society snii Tn existence and in a state of organization SO far as regards some of it's offices being filed It has President and Treasurer at any rate and what little funds has (not quite $50 however, are in safe bsnd to be used when occasion demands in ferret;no o,, depredators upon the property fits members or wber ever the public good requires A meeting will ve lin. derstand be shortly held and further organization or a total abandonment of the Society take place w.
