The intelligence Of the election Of Mn. An. b
has been received in all those parts of the conn.
from which we have had time to receive accona,I
with spirit which is highly honorable to all cl,s
OF our fellow .citizens. Even those who have H.,
accustomed to oppose his claims, and to predict,
elevation Of either Of the other candidates in prrt
ence to him. seem to acquesce IN his election, VIM
an unanimity which We were scarcely prepar,d NJ
witness. The reason is obvious: However srons
IL the friends Of all the other candidates have
the influence Of personal predilectons--and nsE
predictions lar be It from us to conference.-the
has been no solid, no substantial objection eysinI
in the minds of any, against Mr.. ADAMS. The cNE
sequence Isl that no sooner do the friends Of III, NH
er candidates find their personal wishes lrustra,d
than, without difficulty, they arc enabled to unite
him whose extensive knowledge, and whose exu.
rience as statesman, legislator, and dpoma,b,-[
in all the great branches Of political science-h,uE
eminen,ly qualified him to concentrate round him

still more eminent degree, command the eseemal
admiration Of mankind.
