Our returns of the State elections on the 4h inst. come in very slowly. and are provokingly meagre. A despatch from 8t. Louis states that Heli (dem.) is reelected to Congvess from the Second district fn Towa. It is centrally concede@ that the democrats have carried Kentucky. In Missouri ‘the reselt is doubtful, but the reported majorities are in favor of the snccess of Mr. Pelk, the anti-Benton neminee for Governor. F.P.

Elections took place yeXerday in Worth Carotima and ‘Yennessee ‘ As far a beard fr em. there are considerable demo-; eratic gains in North Carolina, and Gov. Braga’s election, over G’ pmer (K. N.}, is regatted as certain. We have not a srord from Teanessee. By the arriv y] of the steamship Asia at this port we have three ¢jges later advices frem Europe. Their contents are igteresting.

The Cortes had passed a vote of we ntof contence in the new ministry by a large mi jority. his has given great offence to the go- ve mument,und it is said that the constituent Cortes * D1 be abeliehea and the old one revived. The re- P ort that the French /:mperor was concentrating an % mmy of observation on the frontiers is confirmed. J & is aseerted'that in the event of arepublic being deciavred i would be ordered to enter Spain. The wbject of this movement gave rise to some discussion 2m the British House of Commons. Lord Palmer- ‘ston's reply te a qvestion put to him im regard to it was considered to be rather of a warning nature and intended to comvey w Loms Napoleon the view which would be taken of such a step in England. Prince Lacien Bonaparte had been sent on a special miesion ‘to Madrid, but the object of it was met known, The new Spanish government intead to quash immediately all the proceediags, legal or otherwise, which bad been instiinted against Queen Christine and ber adherents. In another colamn will be found the copy of an important paper which has just been laid before Parliament in compliagce with 4 motion of Mr. Milner Gibson. It is a letter from Sir Geo. Grey, defining the boundaries of Belize as cleimed by the British government in 1836, which boundaries donot include the Bay Islands, nor come within sixty miles of them in any direction. No legal acquisition of them having since been mede by Great Britain, the argument tha’ they are depen- dencies of Belize is completely exploded by this do- cumeat. In reply toe question put to him in the House of Commons, Lord Palmerston stated that the Cabinet had not ae yet made up its mind as to when it would send another Minister to the United States. His lordship does not appear to have as yet got over his sulks. The markets generally exhibit no im- portant change. The Senate yeeterday took up the Navy Appro- priation bill. Upon the motion to strike out the proviso adopted by the Howse, that the military force of the coumtry ball not be employed in en- forcing the laws of the Kansas Legislature, end that the President «hail adopt means for the pacifi- cation of the Territory, an animated debate ensued. The action of the House was characterized as revo- iuti nary, and the republicans were taunted for not impeaching the Kansoe judges if their admin'«tra- tion had been dicbenest. Tie proviso was foally stricken out by a vote of 29 to 0, and the bill paesed by a vote of 27 to &. Mr. Weller gave notice that he should move to take np the Pacitic Railrond to-day. The House passed the Neval Appropr' bill. It provides for an expenditure of eleven mil lion dollars for this branch of the public service Among the items is one of $37,000 for continulag the work on Stevens’ steam floating buttery for the protection of New York harbor. The bill making appropriations for the coast survey, light- houses, land surveys, &c., was discussed till the hour of recess. The evening session was devoted to Presidential speeches. Both branches of the Common Council were io session last evening. In the Board of Aldermen a communication was received from the Comptruiler, complaining of the menner in which the Superin- wudent of Repairs to Public Builuiags, Mr. James Irving, gives out the work of bie department, in fat Jobe, to bis friends, in vic lation of law, as is alleged. ‘The Mayor sent in a communication urging the Board to exercise more discrimination in voting to increase the salaries of public officers, and plainly stating that, should have no hesitation hereafter in interposiny, his veto in «uch cases, unless fnlly satisfied that e increa-e of salary was just and pro- per. We give Sese documents in our report of the proceedings. The appropriation of five handred doilags ,for the celebration of the entrance of the Agnerican army into the city of Mexico was defeated. Nothing of import- ance tranepired in the Board of Councilmen. A resolution war sdacted requiring the Stree’ Commiesioner and Comp rissioner of Repairs and Suppliee to furnish statepvents of all contracts en- tered imo by their cepasiments, leas in amount than #250,together wich the sames of the contra. tore.

The matter is now open for consideration. The first brash of the campaign has knocked iimote ont of the ring.
