The elections in several of the principal states of North

America. have terminated in favour of the" Whig" or Anti-Jackson party. In Philadelphia, and in other places, there were some rather serious con- flicts between the contending factions, who are in a high state of excite- ment. The Government is accused of intending to go to war with France, for the recovery of the twenty-five millions of francs promised by the Duke de Broglie as an indemnity to she American merchants, but which the Chambers refused to vote. Another " invention of the enemy," as it is positively asserted to be by the Government press, is the retention by the Post-office of the " Whig "journals on their way to subscribers.
