State in the Un!an to tina, OF one oil The sf''aii-
rt If the Adams men were not confident oil
having decided majority in New YORK; WY
sn,pM ,hey wish i General Ticket! And IL
the Jacksoni,es were not aware OF that TACT, why
should they exui at the rejection fthe proPo'-
I'd alteration? The answers are plain. The
friends of the Administration had rather nave
the WHOLE vote Of New York than PARr-ana
,hr advocates Of Jackson had rather have PART
than NONE. 1t Is tue that such proposition
ba, been made and rejected, but IL was made,
we believe, prsmalurely-the present not being
the proper session for that purpose. Lesis-
Isture composed ornewly elected members will
meet during the approaching winter, and act
upon the subject as the wishes Of their consli
turn,s may direct, which wishes will be ascer-
taned during the canvass aud we doubt not
will be in favor Of changing the Electoral Law.
Pennsylvania and Virginia vote by General
Ticket, and so will New York unless the people
Of that great Stale, like certain Member OF
Congress We might name, PREFER Mr.. Adams,
but Voluntarily AID General Jackson.
The Editor Of the Louisville Focus, has de-
.ecled and exposed another Of the falsehoods
propaca,ed by that counterfeit CHRISTIAN DUFF
GREEN, The washing Of whose body seems TO
have forced the corruption and filth Of the sur
lace to the very core Of the heart. The follow
ing paragraph appeared in the Telegraph, i'm
mcJilirly after tRr publication Of Mr.. Buchan-
AMI statement, and was intended as temporal
~ rx1cd;cnt 10 divert The attention OF the pub
id from that important document.
TN the tall ofl824, Mr. Clay wrote letter to Gen
'Ir.! Jackson, inviting him TO pass through Lexing
toa, on his way 10 Washington, and proposing that
"they should travel together MIR Clay did wait sew
A,7l days, expecting Gen. Jacksons arrival in Lex
"aSan, and expressed hiniselfto some oithe Gener-
lis friends to be much disappointed that the Gener-
+ahad not arrived before he (Mr. Co. left there"
The following are the remarks ofthe Editor
Of the Focus. containing says the National
,earual, "a new and correct view CT the trans
'cUOH referred to-
'Now, the truth is that the letter in question, in
seal Of gong from Lexington to the Hermitage, went
;aaiy ae contrary ,cay; and when Mr.. Clay got the
algna,ion 1t contained, he hGstercd Of As quick as
ro,saIe, leaving Lexington only tho day before the
Iencr4 srrycd Hut the enterprise Of the General
rN not 10 be thus bafietl When he got TO Washing
tn, be hunted cut MIR Clay, and made him very
CORDIAL and a!Fectiorate visit This is not the only
>'c IN lS24-5, in which the partsans of the General
ays charged Dir Clay and his friends with things,
~ sues lie ,caat they had done Themselves.
NIB. Mr.. Buchanan got just such an answer from
