RECENT ELECTIONS elections recently held


in Maryland, Georgia, Tennessee, Ohio, and, per-


haps, other States, possess some peculiar character


istics. The two parties came into the field as


usual, but there is sad falling of in the aggregate
votes of both in every one of these elections. In
Maryland the Wings generally staid at home and
gave the more active Locofocos victory. Yet the
result was supposed to be favorable to modifi-
cation Of the Tariff and to full liquidation of
The State debt. In Georgia, on the contrary, the
wings appear to have gained the victory but prnci-
paly produced by number OF the locofocos backing
out from their former associations and voting for the
wings In Tennessee, the locofocos carried the
day, caused chiefly by the accession of Mr.. Polk to
the Presidency and the belief that Tennessee ought
to support the party which carried their man into
the White House In Ohio, the locofocos were de-
feated and the wings gained great victory in con-
sequence of certain portion of the locofocos going
in favor of banks, abandoning their own party and
voting for the wings.


The general result Of these elections is, however
80 nicely balanced between the two parties, as an
indication of future events, that they stand pretty
nearly in the same position as they did before
There is great want OF feeling in all these matters
throughout the country, do believe that there
will be much political efervescence until the next
presidential election comes on the carpet
