Virginia. We have some few returns from the re cent election in this State. The day has gone against the democrats in the Richmond district, and John M. Bolts is elected to Con gress by a large majority. In the Spottsylvaoia district, (lately repre sented by Mr. R. M.T. Hunter,) the chances appear in favor of Mr. Beale,-decn. There are a few straggling returns from two or three other districts, but no definite result can be obtained. C«rn. HcoU’» Forces. The official field return of the forces under Gen. Scott, on the 25th of March, before Vera Cruz, shows an aggregate of 13,470 — one of the best disciplined and most gallant corps in the Wf rid. Oißcini Despatches from Gru. Scott. Tfie Union of the 22d, has received and publishes despatches from Gen. Scott, up to the sth inst. Their contents have been no ticed by us, by various arrivals at New Or leans, and as they contain nothing but what ■our readers have been made acquainted with, we will not republish them. The Union,af ter noticing their receipt, says— “ The inhabitants of Vera Cruz, under tiie 'excellent government of Gen. Worth, are beginning to be assured of protection, and to recover die cheerfulness of their spirits. “The general has some idea of selecting and sending home some of the beautiful bronze pieces taken with the castle and city,(llß out of more than 400.) They are field liable to be restored at the pacification; but they need not be restored without the untrammelled consent of the United States. The general, however, proposes to send only a small num ber, about a dozen, as trophies. He is about to send other trophies—flags, colors, and standards—by Col. Bankhead, selected on account of eminent services in theseige, and partly because of his infirm hetnth. The number of these objects is small, compared with the strength of the garrisons.” We see by the New Orleans Mercury of the 21st inst., that Col. Bankhead, bearer of despatches from Gen. Scott, and having in charge the trophies of war taken at Vera Cruz, arrived at that port on the morning of the 21st, in the ship Elizabeth Dennison, on his way to Washington. The N. Y. Jo urnal of Commerce of the 23J inst., says—“ Three hundred soldiers be longing to the tenili Regiment ofU. S. Vol unteers, Col. Temple, sailed to day from Governor’s I>land for the seat of war, under the command of Major McCarty. The 10th has filled up in ranks with unexampled rapidi ty.” ITlarinc DiiasMr. Capt. Barden, of the steamer Gen. Clinch, reports having passed ashore on Stouo breakers, on Saturday last, the Br. barque Bromham, from N. Orleans for Cork. Capt. B. states that he understood that she was in distress, and that she went ashore while en deavoring to reach this port. Cap'. Blanken ship, of steamer Jasper,from Savannah,states that when he passed her on Sunday after- j noon, she was still ashore,and (hat the steam er Charleston, from this port, was alongside.

LATEST DATES FROM HAVRK.RRRaRRMARCII 15. j [Extracts of le'ters received in this city ] LIVERPOOL, April 3, 1847.—At the departure 1 I of the last steamer, there existed great depression i in mir Cotton market, with a downward tendency ! in prices. This continued till the 19th ult., on i which day fair Orleans were’qnoted at 64 fair Mo bile 61, and fair Uplands 6}J. lb being a decline of » a id. from the quotations of the 3d of March, and lid lb. from the extreme top price of the year. Al this point accounts were received that the Bank of France had negotiated a sale of stock with the Russian government to the amount of £ 2,000,000, thereby relieving herself of her difficulties, and the money market of this country of one source of unxie y.Money temporarily became easy, its cheer ing influence wascommunicated to the Cotton mar ket, an active demand sprung up., and the holders favored by simultaneous decline in the Corn mar kets, and more favorable accounts from India, suc ceeded in obtaining an advance of «d lb. in the better and Id in the middling and lower de scriptions. In the last five or six days, however, t'ae money market has again relapsed into a gloomy state, perhaps more so than before, perticularly the last d .y or two, which has checked the operations in the cotton market, and prices have sunk again fully |d per lb. The quotations therefore are now just the same as at the departure of the last steam er, a month ago, with a languid heavy market- The sales for the month ended Ist inst., amounted 98,160 bales, of which speculators have taken 23,- 300, and exporters 9770 bales. Yesterday being Good Friday, was a holiday, and to-day they are estimated at 3000 bales. The quotations are N. 0.51 aB, fair 6j, Mobile 54 a 74, fair 6J, Uplands 5} a7, fair 64. The import since Ist Jan is 339,- i 000 bales, of which 238,000 are American. The stock is 489,000 against 788,0t0 last year; that of . American is 332,000, against 525,000 bales at same period. The corn market has been seriously depressed by heavy supplies, beyond immediate wants, and flour sunk from 40s. down to 355. per barrel. The article has however rallied to some extent, and it may now be quoted at 3Ss., at w hich latter price there is a steady demand for good Western. Indian corn became for a time quite unsaleable, a panic ensued, and in order to realize, the greatly reduced price of 44s a 45s per qr. was submitted to to some extent. This article has also recovered a little from this extreme depression, and is now selling at 45 a 51s. pr qr at which the market appears steady, hut even at these rates it is held with less confi dence than flour or wheat. HAVRE, March 31.— Cotton. Contrary to all expectation, and to the depressed character of our market, in the early part of last week, a revival has taken place in the transactions, and business j has worn an animated aspect, which has led to a considerable improvement in prices. The gradual decline everywhere in Bread Stuffs and the fur i tlier downward tendency, coupled with the con j finned encouraging appearance of the weather, ( has induced speculators to come boldly forward, the buying lias assumed an animated aspect, and an advance of fully f. C a 7 has beep realized on all American Cottons. The satisfactory tenor of the intelligence from Liverpool has been the main cause of tfie activity that has been displayed here in tfie demand, which although it had previously begun to revive, the opening of this week suddenly become spirited, and created an amelior ation which was before qf comparatively trifling importance. Confidence therefore seems general ly speaking to be restored, and the amended fea ture of the accounts from the manufacturing dis tricts, is perhaps calculated to strengthen that feel ing; but the demand for consumption is neverthe less moderate, and if on the one hand the state of things in the internal districts is less unfavorable on the other, the state of trade is not sufficiently encouraging to produce any salutary change in prices. We have been put in possession of advices from the United States to the 6th inst., but they were not of a nature to create any change in our market. The imports of Cotton during this rn mth have added to our stock, and notwithstanding the advance that has just taken place, prices still ex hibit a depreciation of f. 10as compared with those ; at the end of pL-bruary. Btock, 31st-March, 1347, j 55,060. HAVRE, March 31. Cotton —The gradual de i dine everywhere in bread stuffs, and the encour aging appearance ofthe weather, has induced spe ; culators to come forward, ami an advance of fully Ga7f realized on all American.

CHARLESTON April Immedi ately after the receipt ofthe Cambria’s Telegraphic and condensed accounts on Saturday morning, quite a lively demand sprang up in the Upland market, during which holders ut once advanced former rates. The sales ofthe day reached near 2000 bales at full Jc, and in a few instances per haps |c above previous prices, extending from 10| a 124 c—the bulk ofthe transactions at trom ilia Ilf. The disposition of holders to meet buyers at the abo\ e advance, appeared not .o be general, some of them preferring to await more particular advices. We quote fair 12 cents. NEW YORK.

The daily expectation of later European ac counts, w hich it was supposed would beofan unfa vorable character, disinclined buyers generally to operate to any important, extent, and-we left the j market very dull on Friday, with rather easier . prices for the lower qualities. On Saturday,also, great dullness prevailed, and scarcely more than I 80() hales were disposed of, at prices still rather in favor of buyers. On Sunday, by a succession of packet arrivals at the Northern ports, we were put in possession of further European accounts, the j latest being to the 21st ultimo, brought to Boston I by the ship W ashington Irving. The intelligence | brought our market, which was before inactive, to | a complete stand. as ttie few buyers disposed to op | crate claimed a more important reduction than fac j tors were willing to submit to, and the sales of I Monday did not amount to 10 1 bales. Yes:er*Jav, also, the market remained w ithout any movement i of consequence, only about 80 J hales having been disposed of, and there seems to be a disposition on lie part of both buyers and sellers to await the re ceipt of advices to the llh instant per Cambria, which are expected ro reach here in some shape about tSumlayor Monday next. As regards prices we have to remark that the lew sales made on Sa turday were at slighti v easier rates than our figures of the day previous; hut since these last adverse accounts there has not been enough done to estab lish ft rmrket. and we therefore omit quotation- for thep e entuntila more settle 1 btsis is attained, i though we may rent irk that the few lots sold have | been at a further decline.; some say of I a i cent per lb. Factors generally maintain a good degree ot firmness, knowing as they do that the advices of I Ist March,carried out by the Cambria, were the worst for tlieir interest that could go from this side, { and that the subsequent accounts are calculated to operate strongly in tlieir favor.

Wc did I not learn that a singe bale changed hands after the receipt of the intelligence here on •Saturday. Monday a few buyers made their appearance, claiming, however, a material reduc tion in prices. In the limited transactions ot the day they gained a concession, in some instances, of fully Ic.,butthe majority of holders withdrew their cotton for sale. Yesterday it rained in 1 torrents the entire business part ottheday,and j the few transactions that occurred were a matter | of surprise. There was the same discrepancy in j the views of buyers and sellers al the close as on I Monday, the former claiming a reduction off a ' |c., and many of tue latter as firmly refusing to I yield. In this condition of things we find it difficult to give quotations. As mentioned above, some purchases have bacn made within the last two days, making middling cottons quotable at 10 a 10ic., while others in the same time have trhns pired at sc. higher. It is hard to predict the fu ture course of the market. The buying for the last three da\s has been to complete cargoes for Liverpool. We append figures in accordance with the majority ot the sales yesterday and the day previour. The sales of the week font up as follows; On Wednesday 2000 bales.
