The Partizans Of the Administration ,ra be

Louisiana. MIR. Livingston is excluded Nlessrs.
Brent and Gurley probably collected. and Mr.
Derblgny, the Administration candidate elected
Govsrnor-The Administration has been so Ioaq
plunged in the depths OF adversely that they catch
at the first CLEAN OF hope which breaks upon
them. "The news (says the n. intelio.ncer\ is
of even bright:. cast than was anticipated bv
The most sanguime supporters Of the reelection of
Mr.. Adams. ltmay indeed be said to settle the
question as TO the result of the approa ching Pres
identia Election Indeed! Now the friends ne
Gen. Jackson never counted with any sort of con i.
hdehce on Louisiana. They were too well aware
OF the miscellaneous character Of her population,
and the springs that had been put in play against
him, to calculate on her cooperation. But the
administration gentlemen are not yet out of the
wood! They have many and much severer stru~
giles to encounter, before they can congratulate
themselves upon the victory. They have to beat
down the Jackson power in Kentucky, Ohio. In
diana, Illinois and Missouri-They have to rec
oncie tho Republicans of New Y ork to the reipn
ing Dynasty. They have the sturdy politicians
OF Maryland, New-jersey and Delaware TO sub
duc-and they have rising rebellion to oucIl in
New England. They themselves are Obliged to
confess that the vote Of the Cumberland district
In Maine is doubtful-whe we claim il rs orr
own; and intend TO struggle for two others. New
Hampshire Is in motion. Two hundred and two
most respectable Delegates have held General
Convcntion-thc President Of the Convention was
at the last election Adams Elector of the State
and organized an Electoral Tlcket-and these
proceedings have been sanctioned by,Mr Paris,
now Judge of the Supreine Court and late Sena-

votes IN Rlane and the whole eight electoral

desperate IS Mr.. Adamss chance of reelection ::

The following statement is addressed to every
candid man, to shew that Mr.. Adams cannot DO

L his statement shows that, giving Mr.. Adams
Kentucky, Louisiana and Indiana, he will have
only l0S votes which will require that he should
get % more votes to elect him. Gen jackson
will require only IA more votes to ensure him
success.
The statement is made the most favourable to
Mr.. Adams, that any reasonable probability would
Justify in order to prove that, even in this aspect
his chance is nearly desperate. But, it must be
recoIlected, that concessions are made to Mr. Adj
ans In this statement, which are perfectly qratu-
Itous. Kentucky is given him, which every bo.
dy must admit is detachable ground In Mary
land 8 arc given to Mr.. Adams and D to Jackson:
bat the friends Of Jackson claim in that State six
votes certain, with good chance to get from 2
to 8 more.
In Indiana, given to Adams, Jackson's friends
are very saDguine of success.
In Jersey and Delaware the Jackson men arc
carrying on vigorous contest, and have strong
hopes.
Even in Ne'o England. the friends of Jackson
are active, and his party is increasing daily.
Maine and New Hampshire are giving strong
indications IN favor of Jackson.
In Massachusetts, the Administration men arc
running ticket composed onc-haf of Hartford
ConyentonIsts, and the other half of persons who
claim to belong to the Republican party This
strange and unnatural union is opening the eyes
Of the people.
In kentucky,if Metcalfe succeeds, it will he

build his hopes on New-York. The friends Of
Jackson there, are confident he will get not less
than "a votes, perhaps 26, and possibly 30. But

The influx Of strangers into The city OF New
York is astonishing. 1t is not oSly the great
centre of commercial business to the NORTH
and brings thither seamen from all points OF the
Compass, and merchants and dealers from al
most all quarters--but it is the great thorough
fare tor persons who travel about for health or
for pleasure. Those who visit 7he Springs, al
Saratoga, Ballston and Lebanon; those who
visi, the Falls Of Niagara, and take the tour OF
the Lakes; and those who travel on 10 Provi-
dence, Boston, Northampton, &c. must touch
at this populous city. This happens 10 be the
season for fashionable parties to De leaving the
watering places and the lakes and iourneying
homewards. They congregate Tor few days
in New York-apd it is about this slime that
Broadway is alive, and the places OF public
amusement thronged with variety OF new
faces 4 late number OF the New York Enqur'
err estimates the number of Strangers, then IN
the hotels, boarding houses, &c. OF the great
city, at not less than 10000. No other place
on the continent could so constantly support SO
many places Of public amusement. There are
four theatres in full blast: The Bowery entire.
ly new, the Park newly and elegantly fitted
up; the Chatham lately taken by Mr.. Tho
mas A. Cooper; and the Lafayette; not to speak
Of the Museums, Academies Of Fine Arts, Nj
cy Glass Working Exhibition in Miniature, all
the way from London, sc. Few OF US can form
any idea Of the animation & spirits Of N: York.
Broadway swarms from day break 10 ten at
night. Pedestrians are always on the alert,
no, drawing as it were their wounded lengths
along. The very horses seem to be animated
with the spirits Of their owners; and the dray
horses, and the hacks, seem 10 be actively in
motion. There is an eternal clarter OF wheels
upon Broadway, and The pavement is constant
ly resounding 10 the feet Of the passenger.
There is, Of course, some LITTLE contrast be-
tween such city as New York and city like
our own-as TO population, strangers, amuse-
men,s, animation, business, noise, and all that.
He who visits us after leaving the great city OF
the North is struck for several days with the
singular contrast. He seems 10 be living al
most among a different race Of men-with 9TH
er pursuits, habits and almost different sensa>
lions.
