THE PRESIDENCY

A strong counter-current has set, during the
last eight or ten days. in favor of Mr. ADAMS
Whether or not it is sufficient to carry him to the
presidential chair, we pretend not to know-but
1t is conjectured, here, that, if he succeeds Mr..
CRAwFORD will retain his present situation; and
the office of secretary OF state may give Mr..
CLAY firm foothold tor the presidency at flu
'ure period. Of any other important arrange
ments we hear nothing-for it is all derived from
the general talk of the day, though not without
some foundation.

Numerous petitions against the House and Win

particularly from the various parishes OF Bath and

Liverpool have prepared to petition on the same

rIed every thing before it so that very few houses
could resist it, and many persons lost their lives. In
the province of East Friesland alone it is supposed
that 900 acres OF fertile land are under water
and that 10000 horned cattle have persisted. Ac-

THE END OF THE CONTEST.

The Presidential question is at last decided. we
are informed by an intelligent gentleman VINO was
presen, on this interesting occasion, that the pro-
ceedocs in The House of Representatives were con-
Quoted with great ceremony and dignity.
The excitement which few desperate members
attempted to get up through the agency OF their
mise rable tool Kremer are informed, had nearly
subsidized and the result Of the election was received
wih more satisfaction than had been anticipated.
With regard 10 the Speaker, Mr.. Clay, whose Pc
ul,ar and delicate situation from variety OF cir
cumstsnces. had produced such intense interest,"
there was bu. one opinion OF his conduct. The
purity of his motives was acknowledged even oy
his enemies. The hrmness and independence
which he di.,nlayed at critical moment, was sub
lee, Of applause among all parties. The liberal
snd inteleen, friends of Gen. Jackson particularly
dsclaimed al, participation in the base and unman
" conspracy against him. The triumph OF MT
CLAW our informant remarked, was most complete
Kremer. The member from Pennsylvania, was an OBJ
ec, of compassion sympathies OF the House
and the well known fact, that he was nut mere
tool in the business might avert lndlgnalon' ant
save him from expulsion =.
The prompt decision OF this question oy 'h'
House of Representatives is SUBJECT oil gra.uia
lion 10 the whole nation Many are DISAPPOINTED
in not obtaining their first choice, but all ought e
rejoice that The decision has been made by the ul
mate tribunal in peaceable and independent man
ner. We bow with submission 10 the constitution
