Tito wheat market continue tlm same, and the weather was favorable. Toe monny market in London had undergone no nhmgn. Flour was beginning arrive freely from America. This int^nigence, such as it, ia is considered favorable io Wall S reet.

Massaciiusstts.?The etate election toe place in th e state last week ; lull retun have not yet reached us, but from thooe r ceived, it appears that if Mobtom, the admit iotration candidate for Governor has qot bee elected over Governor Everett, he has com very near it. FVoca all wosms kiifti howevi the sleotion seemed to turn upon other quei tions -than national politics. Gov. Evsrei was open y committed in favor of theHWdt gallon law** or *1he law which pnnhihfcn th sale of anient spirits in less quantities than I gallons. All topers and a large proportion < temperate drinkers too, of coarse, opposed hi election; and this question produced ntor excitement in many if net most parts of th state than any other. Gov. Everett wu ala obnoxious to the abolitionist* who are numerou in the etate ; and the moat of them are aaid t have voted for Morton. These men, howevei being once associated with the Administrate party in a warm contest may possibly contir uo to act with thom in future elections. Abb< Lawrence is elected to Congress from th Boston district in the place of Mr. Fletch< resigned, and Mr. Baker, to supply a vaeanc in anothor district, caused by the death of M Atvord. The two members elect are Whig as weru also their predecessors. Minaistippi Election.?The State Electk took place in Mississippi early in the presei month. Wo have seen accounts from en eight counties; in these the Whigs have to 7 members and gained 2, compared with tl last election; makings clear loss of A. J this ra.e the Administration party are like to have the majority in the State. It will be seen uy a semi-otlkial article & pied into a precedirg column, from the Ar? and Navy Chronicle, that the Governuioi have determined, fir the present at least, discontinue offensive operations against tl Sum nolee, and to act mutely on thedsfsnsiv This pots an end to the story that bkx hounds had been otdercd to hunt them.
