"THE WORK GOES BRAVELY ON."
Correspondence of the National intellagencer.
FROM LOUISIANA
Nicw OaLzsto, July 9,1638
Messrs.: Gales & Seaton: Our goner! election
terminated on the 4th instant, after the most so
vere and animated contest ever had in Lousiana.
The Locoencos made their death struggle. sod
have .‘died in the. as ditch." I have . delayed
writing you until we had suf fi cient retutna to
leave no doubt of the result; and I now intim the
pleasure to inform you we have carried the Gov
ernoe, the, entire delegation to congress, and the
Legislature. Mr. Pricer, their ;candidate, has
been for 10 years Mayor of this city, where
connexions and great official Influence had
made his friends calculate on a majority of 600
to 800, and the'Whiga always conceded that he
would carry New Orleans by 2513; to 300; instead
of which,he had only the meage# majority of 8
votes.
As proof that even this was owing to . the above
circumstances in his favor, the city hai given 630
majority for the %Vhig ticket to Congress, and in
the district about 1200 for Mr. White, our former
representative, and present excellent and,patriotin
Chief Magistrate, over-Mr. Slidell.
We have also carried sur entire city delega
tion to the Legislature—but the great triumph
has been in the 24 Congressional District, at
present represented by Gen. Ripley, which was
the hotbed of Van Bureniarn, and was always
considered as good for 1200 majority for the Ad
ministration—anti where, on this- occasion, we
have-elected Chinn by about 400.
Our-Legislature consists of 50 members. We
already hove returns of the election nt 29 Whigs,
and shall probably have 6 or 8 more—leaving
the lower house stand at 35 or 37, to-1S or 131
As our opponents clamor for the night of instruc
tion, our Senators, Messrs. Nicholas and litoutrin.
will have an opportunity next session of acting
under ihe (lifters of the Legislatnte.
The few parishes yet to hear from will mom close
Mr. Roman's majority. which Will probably be
about 1,000 ins poll of 12,000 'Mee. Mr. Cuir
land. the present Representative,-Walks over the
course in the 3d district without a ii ii opponent, as
the Locos thought it useless to st rt a candidate.
The Whig party . fought opealy and boldly
under the banner of Nt Natioral Bank aind
sound currency,' which motto headed their tick
eta, and Was Placarded in the sired's, This is the
first election for the new CongreyS„ sal I consider
the result as of the highest 413par/once, for if the
Administration could, by the grea t exertions they
made, have saved the State, it would, in a mea
sure; halo checked-their fall; but nqw it only ite
ceierates.their rapid deseent into the abyss, end
will havei a very favourable nfluence on the elec.
lams which take place net month in Arkansas,
Missouri, and Kentucky. ' .
Enormous bets were 4
ependi on th e result of
the contest, and our opponents n only lose their
candidates, but have the additi nal chagrin of
losing their money. Ver truly, lac.
Fran additional returns just ived, I think
the Legislature will stand as full WS:

The principal feature of the Loddon market is
the extreme abundance of Money and lomrate of
interest which has now been existing for a very.
considerable• period of time. Owing to that
want of confidence in mercantile trans4ctions
which has existed since the crash in the American
trade in 1838, money has been very largely with.
drawn from employment in discounting bills of
exchange, and has been consequently accomula
ted in London in the hands of the Bank of
England, and of the other private and joint stock
banks.
With en increasing knoweldge of the internal
affairs and resources of the various States of the
Eaton. there is daily a great disposition to invest
money In the r'espectivelhonds,—and on this sub
ject the recent letter of Mr. Biddle has here p-o
doeed a most excellent effect; for numerous
it dders of American securities were beginning to
grow en*irely bewildered with the accounts
about the sub-treasury bill—the hard money,
the Loco.Focos, and all Cie rest of the jargon
with which the Eriglisn newspapers have been
filled for the last twelve month.; and .in oppo•i
tion to which the picture of the whole iserual
affsirs of America is given by Mr. Biddle In a
manner,so comprehensively clear, and direct,shat
people in general have become convinced that
there is abundance of property as security, and
ease to take any interest in the question of re
semption of specie payments or not..
In the manufacturing districts, •operations
continue to be conducted upon an extensive scale,
and the prospects in the cotton manufacture at
Manchester, and the woollen business at Loeds,
are described in all the letters to be better than
for a long time past. Even in the remote mane.
factoring districts of Scotland, the population are
feeling the effect of the late cheering revival, in
the American trade.
