have Induced many to suppose that II has been re-

From the delegates returning home from the
Young Mems State Convention we learn the cheer
ing fact, in confirmation Of our previous intelligence;
that from a careful collection of facts made by a
committee appointed for that purpose, and derived
from the information of delegates there present
from all parts of the state, there is the strongest
probability. and almost moral certainty, that Is ell
ectors friendly to the present administration, will
be chosen BY the people of this state. The cleo
tors it will be remembered, choose two additional
members, from the state at large, which in such an
event would increase the vote for Mr.. Adams 10

given of our own previous impressions and assuran-
ces; and our friends in other states will perceive
from it how well we have been warranted in assur-
ing them-as we have frequently done-that at
