Commences on "Wednesday next, the 18th.
The Philadelphia papers of Thursday
give full accounts of the late Elections
in that city. In the first and third Con
gressional Districts. the only question
was Federalisis or Democratic and the
democratic ticket succeeded,-J. b
Switzerland for the FIRST District, and
Danl. Fl. Miller for the third. In the
second District, the Fedefalists, the
Jacksonites, and the friends of the Adj
ministration, each run candidate. In
this district were t,ro elections for Con-
gress, one for member of the nine
teenth Congress TO ELL the vacancy oc-
casioned by the resignation of Joseph
Hemphill, Esq. and the other for mem
Der of the 2oth Congress. For the 18th
Congress, the Candidates were Mr.. Kit
tera Federalist, unpledged as TO the
Presidential Election, and Mr. Horn,
Democrat and avowed General jackson
man. Mr.. Kittera received 1899 votes,
and Mr.. Horn 1861. For the Goth
Congress, the candidates were Henry
Horn, for jackson, John Sergeant for
the Administration; and Thomas Kit
tera, for the Federalists. Horn and
Sergeant received each 1897 votes, and
Kittera 1891, hence new election must
take place, when no doubt remains that
Mr.. Sergeant will succeed by the same
Majority that was given to Kittera over
Horn in the election tor the 9Th Con-
gress,
The Democratic Press says-it Is
probable we shall have special cleo
sion for a member to represent the Sc
cond Congressional district; in that case,
no matter who may be the opposing
candidate, or what may be the comb
nations or coalitions, MIR. Sergeant will
as certainly be elected as be is alive.

'undeniable and important truth-as is
contained in the latter part OF the fol-
lowing paragraph:
From the Democratic Press.-Thel Free
mans Journal of his morning, disclalms
being jackson paper. 1--WE are not
say the editors, for Jackson--we are
not for Adams-we have 30 candidate
we have no side in politics." This may
be, and probably is true; but it cannot
long continue true. The editors of that
paper will feel compelled to take side.

Nsw Jersey EIec,ion.-From all we
can gather from the papers it appears
certain, that the Administration Con-
gressional ticket has prevailed in New
Jersey by between two and three thou

received in New York says,-'i hasten to
