NORTH CAROLINA ELECTION Tie returns received sines our last, confirm our .Utmentoiheieralresulvia: SIX Whigs to THREE Loco Foco Congressmen ; but n are ena- bled to add aoma further details. In the Salisbury District, Mr. Bvdks is elected by a Urge majority. Mr. B. b a man of powerful intellect, and ought to be made Chairman of some Committee, ajipointed U investigate abuses or cor raption, and we heps ha will bet He can neither be influenced by fear or favor, and ah the storms of Loco Focoism will prove Impotent either to bend or break his purpose. 1 Hets, "emphatically, an honest, firm, and independent man, and will make himself Loowa to the country before he has been long in Congress. Ia the Mountain District, ire presume, from what we hear, that Hon. Thomas L. Cusgxak has been elected OTer his competitor, Gen. Btsum. We are highly gratified to announce, also, the election f that indefatigable young champion of "Whiz principles, in. the Newbern District, R. S Doxkkix, Esq. A few days since, it was reported that his success was doubtful, and Loco Focoism was in high glee at his anticipated defeat But a frost, a killing frost," has nipped all their cherished hopes, ai they now moat reluctantly acknowledge, that Mr. Doukkll is elected. The most astonishing result has taken place in theEdenton District. Two yean ago, Biggs was elected fey 148 majority, and, now, he has been beat en, by tus same competitor, some six sr siren hundred rotes. W care not for the causes that hare pro- diced this result the result, itself, is glory enough for one campaign. THE .EDENTON DISTRICT.

Morganton Ag- 8- Our Election came off to-day. What the result is, nobody knows. Clingman's majority in this. County, over Gen. Bynum, is 105, and one Precinct to bear from, which may probably increase it to 120. The vote throughout the District will be much less than' usual. From what I have learnedj 1 think CUngman will be elected, but will not be surprised if it should be like the Dutchman's going to Heaven d-d tight squeeze," I will give you full returns as soon at I hear the final result " In haste, yours, Ste. v Hamptonvtile, Aug. 9 Mi Galxs : I am enabled to say to you from our returns, some official and some unofficial, that Mr, Borncn is elected in this District, by a majority va r 1 ooo maioritr over nis IV JUa com- petitor, Mr. Boolx.

Mr nun Sr t I rejoice that I can inform yon that Mr, Boron's (the regular nominee of the Dis- trict Convention.) ma lor it v for Cenrress over Begl. is about 800 votes.

Had not Tool been a candidate, AanmoTow would hate -been elected. We do not know so ranch about other Counties, but many Whigs, who were absent from the Polls, and many others who Toted for Data!, assigned to us as a reason for so doing, that with Tools in the field, AaaiMOTON stood no chance, and they should therefore Tote for Dan iel from con siderations of a personal nature, which it is useless I and unnecessary to allude to here. In a single handed contest, to-morrow, AaatKOTOM could beat Daniel ia the District, easily. We voted, oursclf, for Toole, because we like him personally, and be cause he is in favor of Gen. Taylor for the Presi dency, and is sound on one principle, at least, of Whig faith, thoagh we knew, at the time, it was a tote thrown away. We do not regret it, and would do so again, in this triangvlar contest. The most amusing episode, however, to this ex hortation of the u Standard," is, that, even in Edge- comb, the "land of the faithful," the independent candidates beat "the nominee" more than S00 votes! When will the "jStandard" preach again ? STATE ELECTIONS. KENTUCKY. The last mail brings returns sufficient to Indicate the result of the Congressional election in nine out of the ten Districts. In the last Conn-ess the Ken tucky delegationstood 7 Whigs to 3 Democrats. The following summary indicates the result: 1. Linn Boyd, D. 3. Todd, W. 7. 8. Duncan, W. C. S. Morehead, W. 4. Ajlett Buckner, W. 5. Thompson. W. 9. L. M. Cox, W. 10. Miijor Gaines, W 6. Adams, W. The above are all reported to be elected, leaving one district (tho 2d) still to be heard from. It is a Whig district, but the contest is so close that it is still a matter of doubt as to who is elected. It was I represented in the lust Congress by Henry, Whig, who carried the District by 700 majority. Thomp son in the 5lh, and Gaines in the 10th District, ore Whig gains. INDIANA. The delegation from this State in the last Con gress stood 8 Democrats to two Whigs. The re turns received last night iudicate the following re sult in eight of the ten Districts ; I. Embree W. 5. W. W. Wick, D. 6. D. M. Dobson, D. 7. Thompsou, W. 9 Jna W. Cachcart, D. 2. T. J. Henley. D. 3. J. L. Robinson, D. 4. C. B. Smith, W. From the Sth and 10th Districts there are no re turns they were both represented by Democrats in the last Congress. The Legislature is still doubtful. The Whigs I have made some gain, and the result will be very close. ALABAMA. The election took place in Alabama on the 2d inst., for Governor, Members of Congress and the State Legislature. In Mobile the Whig ticket was successful through out The vote for Congress stood : Gayle (W.) 1253 ; Taylor (L.) F.) 1040, being a Whig gain of 383, which is more than the whole Locofoco majority was two years ago, and encourages the belief that Gaylc I is elected. We have the returns from Montgomery county, where HilHard (W.) has a very handsome majority, and is re-elected to Congress. The candidates for Gorenror were Davis (W.) and Chapman, (L) F) and the handsome gains made by Davis, so far as heard from, justify a hope that he I may even be elected ! Snch a result in Alabama, rould be the knell of Locofocoism in the South. THE NXT PRESIDENTIAL CONTEST. It is not generally remembered, that the next Presidential contest comes off throughout the Union on the same day. Consequently the wire-pullers, and National (Jonventiomsts, will nave no oppor tunity to trade vote, hedge on bets and the like transactions as has been the case heretofore. New I York will have to go into the contest without know ing how Pennsylvania has voted. It will therefore be seeu that the people of the United States will all be busy at once like so many bees in a bee hive, vo ting for Gen. Taylor, and the telegraphic reports of his victories will be made along the wires in perfect thunder-clape. All the lines will be engaged to carry off the enthusiasm. CANDIDATES FOR THE PRESIDENCY.

J Mr Dear Sir: The resolutions recently adopted by a meeting of the citiiens of Prince George's county, Maryland, forwarded to me by you, have been, with your accompanying letter, duly received. Through yon, I would respect fully return to those kind friends my deep and sincere thanks for the very high honor and flattering testimonials of approval which they have thus conferred upon me. If the good people of the nation should so greatly honor me With elevation to the Chief Magistracy, I shall, by all tealous endeavors end to the best of my ability, strive to serve them, and maintain the best and inchest interest of the whole country ; vet, though 1 feel impelled to yield to the call of the people at large, 1 should hail with pleasure their de termination to confer so great a gift on some emi nent statesman.

Army. . for the register. Shocco Springs, August Wth. 1847. Mr. Gales : I am again at this delightful place the famous Summer retreat for those in the pursuit of health or pleasure. And 1 assure you, Shocco never looked better, even in its best days. The in telligent Proprietor Mr. Calvert, with a taste pe culiar to himself, has made it every thing it should the walks are made more pleasant, and the public and private rooms have an air of neatness and com fort that must satisfy even the most fastidious. As to the table, he must be an epicure, indeed, who can complain. To the substantial of life, are added all the delicacies which the season affords ; and the ser vants are active, intelligent and courteous. For those of your readers living at a distance, it may be necessary to say, that Shocco is nine miles from the pleasant village of Warrenton A hack runs daily between these two places, for the accom modation of travellers. The Hotel is situated on an eminence, which far over-looks the adjacent country. It contains a parlor, ball-room, dining-room, and bar room, and is nanked on either side by a long row of rooms, used as dormitories Majestic oaks cover the hilL and give to the lawn in front of the Hotel a grand appearance. The path to the Spring at the base of the hill, winds its way under the wide spreading branches of these noble trees ; and it is here that the old and infirm invigorate their feeble limbs, and gallant beaux and sighing maidens give them&elTes up to day-dreams, in planning together their future course through life. Last night was the great night of the season the Bill. And it was my intention to have given you an account of it ; but I greatly fear my head and my heart are in a poor condition to do justice to Shocco on that occasion. Much of the beauty, in tellect and wealth of our State was here. There were from the Counties of Craven. Pitt, Northamp ton, Edgecomb, Halifax, Warrenj Franklin, Nash, and others, young Ladies who would adorn any po sition iu society; who made me feel proud that I was of the same State, that I was warmed by the same sun, and fanned by the same refreshing winds. Cotillion after cotillion went its merry round, until the night was far spent, when the young Ladies and Gentlemen sought quiet repose the former, I sup pose, to dream of conquests made, and the latter of hopes prostrate, and pleasures never to be realized. If there are any young gentlemen in and about your City, who have abjured the married state, I beg that you would send them down ; and I wager you a bas ket of Champagne, that, in less than a mouth, they will perjure themselves, at least in heart. Thus much for the pleasures and comforts of the place. Shocco. for the last half century or more, I sup pose, has been resorted to for the healing property Of its waters. And expertenco has shown, that for dyspepsia, debility, chronic affections of the liver, and cutaneous diseases, and many other affections incident to our climate, not without the happiest re-t suits. And 1 hope the time is not far distant, when it will be more frequently resorted to ; when we shall not go North for our health, as we do for our horses, carriages, and furniture; but seek it at our own Springs, where we can find some sympathy, and in the hour of disease have our bed-side watched over, and in death receive a decent burial, evenl tnouzu we dc peunyiess. it is not my purpose dispumge Springs North of as ; but with true filial gratitude, 1 would direct the public mind to our own noble btate to her great social, moral and physical advantages to our own Springs, and, to our own noble mountains, the pride and boast of every true hearted North Carolinian. And if in any decree I should succeed, 1 shall think 1 have done much, and performed a pious duty I owe'niy native State. 1 fear I have already exceeded the usual limits of an epistolary correspondence ; and hoping soon to sec you here, and to enjoy with you the kindness and hospitalities of the season, 1 am. most respectfully, A NORTH CAROLINIAN. GEN. TAYLOR REJECTED BY THE LOCOS I The Locofocos of Baltimore lately held meetings invthe several wards of the City. In the 10th ward, Mr. C. G. Belt offered the following Resolutions : ' "Resolved, That the Democrats of the 10th ward appreciate in the highest degree the achievements of uenerai a ayior ana nis orave ana gauam rouowers. and feel most grateful to them for the glory won, and the services rendered to the country. "Resoloedi That Uenerai Taylor through life has proved himself a man of the sternest integrity, of devoted patriotism, of sound common sense and of a cool discriminating judgment qualities Which emi nently commend him to the people at the next elec tion for President of the United State.' From the official report of the proceedings, as published in the Argus (Loco,) and signed by T. P. Scott, Chairman, and M. N.

Every one is aenaible of the inconvenience experienced ou th6 re currence of a warm spell, after a seaaou of cold wea ther. A feeling of lassitude, drowsiness, sometimes a winimiog of the head and headache, a sense of fulueas, aud a host of unpleasant (symptoms are the general results.' The inorbid accumulations of whi ter are set loose by warm weather, and float in the circulatiou or lodge in some part of the body. Hence it is perhaps, that Spring is so fatal to consumptives aud others.
