date tor the Presidential Chair. We have
also been informed that some of the Fcde
yaiistS in our own State have determined to
submit to the people an electoral ticket in
opposition to the Republican, and that dele
gates to a Convention of that party have
been appointed to meet at Stanton, for the
purpose of recommending persons as Elec-
\ tors who will, at all events. vote against
Mr.. Madison. No information has vet

support, and at present it seems uncertain
whether they are favorable TO the election
of distinguished Federalist, as has been
conIectured by some, or will unite with the
republicans OF New York in supporting Mr..
Clinton, whom they have heretofore viiifed
and despised.

tam, Virtues and Talents Of flames Madison
/. it's confidently anticipated that proper
attention or their part viii produce srch a
large and overwhelming majority in favor
