Extract of a rrrrr1, rv~T=z Intelligent gentleman in
philadelphia, to his friend in Boston, dated 9th A.
"On the adjournment Of the assembly, / en-
deavored, from various quarters, TO collect in
formation, on the state of feeling, throughout
Pennsylvania. Ingham's popularity is gone
This might be inf. rreH from his defeat, when
Out up AS a Senator of the United States, al the
commencement Of the session HIS vote on the
WooIlen bill acc nplished his downfall. His &C
knowledged stand as the head of the Jackson IN
interest, in the State, gives importance TO thee
facts. Several individuals ut note, in the west
ern part of The Stale, who we're among General
JackSon's friends, have abandoned him, and will
shortly take open ground for the administra-
ton.
"In the western part of this State, am as
sured that Allegheny county can BE- relied or;
this county will exercise great influence over It's
%nelghbors. In fact, it was represented to me,
in The strongest manner, that we have a mao
rity in all the counties Of the Northwestern part
Of the State. even as far as centre county. tis
a highly propitious circumstance, IN that quar-
ter, and in son,e other parts of the State, that
the newspapers are cautiously avoiding the Ere
sidential question This has happened IN Sc
veral cases Of newspapers, formerly the nosl
in favor of General Jackson. Washington
county, in the south west Of the State, Will go
strongly for the Administration. This Is the
county Of Mr. Lawrence, formerly speaker OF
our assembly, and of Mr.. Rituer, present speak
rr. Mr.. Lawrence, your congressional friends
will tell you, ranks among the hrmest and most
intelligent friends Of the Administrator in
Congress OF Mr.. Ritner, a gentleman OF nigh
polilI" al standing in ,hr STATE, 1t is enough 10
say, that he strayed away from the Jackson eau-
Gus at Harrisburg, as did also the Speaker oil our
Senate. In Lancaster coun'y, there Is consider
able opposition, headed hy Mr. Buchanan, a fe-
derai member of Congress. The RePuolicans
of the county will not unlikely take a stand, In
favor of the Administrator. There is a Ger
man paper Of respectabihty there which, since
the avowal made by Governor Shulze oil ieel-
ings favorable to the Administration, has been
pursuing a decidedly moderate and Impartial
course. The same is true OF the German pa
per in Reading. Its editor is with US, and ex-
ercises very deservedly Q great control over the
public sentiment Of the German part OF the
population That entire section OF our citizens
will go, with Governor Shulze, Tor the 'tdmi-
nistra,ion. The state Of feeling in Franklin
county, you will have learned from the proceed
ings at Chambersburg. lhey were wen o'heu'
judicious, and indicative OF The puolic senu-
menl. Chester county IS perfectly sale WIN
regard TO the Caucus "a Harrisburg, you may
rely on the account Of il in the Democratic
Press. The first meeting, which was me Law
Gus, and which took place, after weeks OF al
vertising and preparation, consisted Of but for
t5-hve. This is the ersire amount OF pledged
Jackson men in our legislature; they are the
same, in general, who voted for Mr.. lngham,
as Senator, and the result Of their vote for him
proves wha, strength thy carry. All the rest
Of the Caucus affair is GROSS delusion. 1t was
adjourned to an open cbmmittee room, IN the
