Thus u sppssrs, that ALL, that the most
zesloos, smong the newspsper advocates OF
Mr.. Crawford, now claims for him, is bot
total Of 80 yoiss.
10 our humble opinion however, end from
tho best means of infor NATION within our
reach we have formed our opinion, even this
total 10 far greater than facts will support.
We believe, that IL should be reduced by
dsducting thersfrom Main, Maryland, Della.
ware and New.York. The votes of Maine
We should give TO Mr.. Adams. The whole
Of the votes OF Maryland we should also
give to Mr.. Adams. New.Yoik and Della.
ware we consider doubtful.
Our estimate Of tho relative strength Of
tho candidates would be ss follows. Mr.. A.
dams, as before, Eve ew.England Sstes and
New jersey so, TO which add Maryland IL,

OF the SO votes, which We consider doubt.
ful, South Carolina and Mississippi we have
resson to believe will vote for Mr. Adams,
which makes his number Of votes los. II
N. Carolina should give her vote for Gen.
Jackson, il will mako his pumher Of votes 67.
II New York should vote Tor Mr.. Adams his
number Of voles will then be Ia, and
choice will be effected by tho electors.
Should New York on the other hand vote
for either Gen. Jackson or Mr.. Crawford,
there will be no choice by the electors, and
tho three candidates brought into the house
Of Representatives will be Mr.. Adams, Gen.
Jackson and M. Crawford.
M. Adams Will come into the house, ac-
cording 20 our calculation, with tho votes OF
THIRrEis STATES. being q majority OF the
whole number, TWENTY FOvn.
According to the calculations OF the editor
Of the Washington Gazette, he candidates
that would come into the house ere Crawford,
Jackson, and Adsms; Crawford with the
votes Of Maine, New York, Virginia, N
Carolina, Georgia snd Delaware, s ; Jackson
with Maryland, Pennsyl vania, Tennessee,
Mississppi sod Alabama, 5, and Nh Adams
with Massachuseus Connecticut, Rhode Is
land, Now Hampshire, Vermont, and New
JeIsey, 8. Deducting then Maine frora the
States, that the Edi,os Of tho Washington
Gazette claims for Mr.. Crawford, and giving
her vote 10 Mr. Adams, the candidates would
come into the house as follows-Mr. Adams
with z, Mr.. Crawford with 5, and Gen. Jack.
son with . States.
From tho iairest view, which ws arc able
to give this subject,h is our honest convic-
,ion that at the present moment, Mr.. Adams
promises 10 unite larger portion OF the cleo.
totisI votes than any othst candidate, and O.
ven tho calculations oI his bitetes, opponent
show that, no would come before the house
OF Representatives with DECIDED PLAURAL.
ITr over any other candidate. We howey
er, ace ve'y conGden, in our belief shsI, hi:
merits and ,slenis will secure has election BY
tho people without q rsssrl 10 The House oi
Representatives.
