eieCtlOn OF FreSlueuts gave tEelr VOteS against
Mr.. Adams, comprising those who think most
deeply, and act from the convictions of their
own minds The causes and character of this
change are fully explained in the following par
agraphs which we extractfrom the Pittsburgh
Statesman, and witch our readers will perceive
are entirely in unison with our previous state
ments and observations on the subject These
concurrent evidences show that the people will
not suffer themselves TO be led into an opposi-
ton which has no foundation in Just principle,
but the sole object of which is the elevation Of
political favorites the ruins of principle, &
the desolated tranquility of society:
SIN reference to the propriety of electing
Gen. Jackson to the Presidency, great change
HAS taken place in the sentiments of the peo-
pie of Pennsylvania. This is partly attribut-
able to the wise and truly republican measures
Of the present Administration; and partly to the
violent and indecent course ofthe Opposition,
which-@e trust without authority-uses the
name of Jackson. The citizens Of this State
are characterized by cool and thinking temper
ament which can never be long dazzled by the
glare of reputation exclusively military; and
the Justice and generosity for which they are
proverbial, have already procured for our pres
ent Chief Magistrate that confidence and sup

"Of the sentiments of the county Of Al,eghe-
ny, we speak with the certainty arising from
perfect knowledge; and we assert that, were the
election to take place tomorrow; large por-
ton of the democratic electors would be deci-
dedy friendly to the present administration
In this we cannot be mistaken; our business
lately led US into different parts of the county,
and we find sentiment approbatory of the
| Of fha aA, al
sal among the old, thinking, and steady portion
of the democrats. This sentiment is growing
and is rapidly spreading over the State.-In,
the county of Northumberland, three attempts
have been recently made to get upa Jackson
meeting without success. The people indig-
nantly resisted every effort to enlist them in
faclious and unprincipled Opposition 10 the
constituted authorities of the Union. Dema-
gogues may rave and abuse, but Pennsylvania
will, at the next election, give vi sorous sup
port to the Statesmen whose talents and patri-
otlsm have been stamped with the confidence
and appreciation of Washington, Jefferson, Ma
olson and Monroe; and against whose admins
tration the utmost scutiny and maignity have
been unable to find plausible ground of COM
plant.

from Buenos Ayres, dated 22d June, gives the
following confirmation of the report that the
Government of Great Britain is to become the
PROTECTOR Of a new State to be formed out of
the Banda Orental:
"Lord Ponsonby, the newly appointed British
Minister, to reside near this Government, has
arrived at Rio on his way here, and is daily ex-
pected, 1t is said he is empowered to endea-
vor mediation in the present difference be-
tween this Government and Brazil. The terms
on which, we are told, peace is to be mediated,
and which will certainly not be altogether salts
factory to the People of LA Plata, are, that the
Banda Oriental, the great bone of contention,
be erected into an independent State, and that
its independence shall be guaranteed by Great
Britain. This will be very sly mode of es
Publishing new European Colony in America.
1t was originally thought, thar the interference
of England at all, or that of any other European
Power, in this question, would, perhaps, move
the jealousy of the American States The
terms and whole character of the proposed me-
diation (Which, it is believed, may materially
interfere with present American policy cannot
fail to do so. That the province of Banda O.
rental should he placed in state, the slightest
degree dependent on any European Power,
think will never receive the consent of this Co
vernment, however respectable the source of
the prohered mediation
