RALEIGH IN. C.l Nov 90

1t seems now to be ascertaned beyond
doubt that Mr.. Madison's re election is secu-
red, and that the vote of North Carolina is
altogether without importance, as it cannot
affect the result. There is now contest in
the legislature as To the mode, which will
partially affect the vote of the state, but We
expect it is a question Of principle merely,
for it is not capable ofproducing ATTY imme
date consequences. Pennsylvania which
held the balance has declared ;tself6y We
ry large majority fthe National Intelligencer
saws 90 o0O) IN favor Of Mr. Madison. The
votes of all the states known to he in favor
of Mr.. Clinton united with those considered
as doubtful cannot give him rs many as 90
votes. and 1O8- are necessary to a choice.

Alta very great expence, the proprietor, has
lately procured entire new fonts of TYPE for this

Tt is believed that it now contains a quantity of
matter nearly equal to any paper printed in A

119S, whenit commenced1 is 90 per cent lower
than the other papers of this city. Notwith-
standing this, however, and the encreascd price
ri types, paper. &c. which cannot be obtained
but for cash, the subscription will not be raised
70 tanctrai subscribers. But in Justice to him.
self the printer gives this early notice to his pa
trons, that from and after tho first day of the
year 1912, the paper will be charged at the
Kate of FIVE DoLLARs per annum TO all those
who donot pay their subscriptions in the course
