The Times' correspondent forwards a precise account of the victory

of the Republican party in the Union. They have carried the President and carried the House of Representatives, where they will have a majority of seventeen. They have not, however, carried the Senate, where they will remain in a minority of two. These two, however, are Senators of whom one never goes to Washington, while the other is a very imperfect Democrat. ft is calculated, therefore, that with the influence of the President, the Republicans will carry any laws not tog distinctively partisan.
