Elections.
Indz'ana.—The members ofCongress elected
so far as we are able to judge of the result from
the first instalment of news, appear to be jive
whigs to the same member of Locos—equally
dividing the delegation. This is better than was
expected, and is a gain of three members. In
thelast Congress the delegation stood 8 locos to
‘.2 Whigs.

M.-u.\'i«:.——Tlie Legislature of Blaine have
passed‘ a bill and resolves for altering the Con-
stitution, so that hereafter Gbvei'iioi', Senators
and Representatives to the General Court and
to Congress, may be chosen by a plurality.—
They passed the Senate 18 to 7, and the I-louse
93 to 16. So far as the election ofmembers o
Congress and County officers is concerned, it:
will go at once into operation. The others,
being amendments to to the Constitution can-
not be adopted until they receive the afiiruia-
tive votes ofa majority of the people.
The Three Illillion Purcluise Jll'f07i(.’.’I/ .’——La
Patria contains a letter from Ilavaua, uudor
date of .luly 16, which says that C-fol. Polk has
entrusted the expenditure of the famous Three
Millions to Gen. Campbell, United States Con-
sul at Havana; and that he has employed the
money in buying up Arista, Ampudia, Almout‘«',
Canalize, Rejon and others of the same kidney;
but that two or three other Mexican gentlemen
were not to be had. According to the writer,
the conditions are, that the parties who finger
tlic cash shall do their best to help our Govern-
in out out of the liobble it is in, by tcriniuating
the \Var on terms which it can accept.
Mr. Carri, who once had many a crow over
himself, and indeed grmccd so much that he had
to be “hil’d up” appears “somehow wery tall”
this season, and though “pretty considerably
green,” yet he deals extensively in 32'!/rs, having
laid in :1 stock (stalk) for many (y)ears to come!
COM.
Fiiuas.—A saw mill in Five Mile River, be-
longing to Mr. Richard Bates, was consumed by
fire on Thursday last at. mid—day. As no one
had been near the building, it is supposed to be
the work of an incendiary.
A short time since, soiue out,-buildings were
fired on the premises of Mr. Lewis Richards,
near Darien Landing. But a few weeks before
this, a barn belonging to the same man, was also
burned to the ground. His dwelling-liouse was
seriously endangered mean while, and a Provi-
dential interposition seemed only to preserve it.
There is a mystery brooding over such frequent
fires that reason cannot iathom.—CoM.
53? A great deal has been said in New Ha-
ven about changing the name of the Green to
that of Park, but the better sense——“tbe sober
second thought.” as Mr. Van Burcn would say,
has led to a determination to stick to the old
name.

greatly “excrcised" in their minds on account
of the conduct of the clergy in preaching upon
It will be remembered that
Mr. Polk in his message lauclied his anathema
upon freedom of speech and of the press, (where
his own conduct was concerned) and was duly
echoed by his partisans throughout the land,
These machless democrats have evidently taken
lessons of ‘the Dutch Justice. “Certainly——
every man may tink for himself, proviilccl he

The Annual Commencement of Trinit.y Col-
lege was attended at Christ Church,.Hartford,
on the 5th. The orations were highly credita-
able to their authors, being marked by good,

wright, and a poem by Rev. Dr. Burgess, were
delivered before the House of Convocation on
