he receives the vote of Virginia.
| We have heretofore admitted with irankness' our
expectation that Gen. Jackson would receive 'ne
Virginia Electoral vote. We are equally frank 10
the declaraon that this expectation has lost much
of its certainty. We know that many positive chang
es have been effected since the introduction OF 1928
and thai there is still more important change IN
the tone Of the two pares-nore lnportant' because
it is the first step to extensive changes OF OPINION
If the estimate Of Gen. Jackson's majority gwen
above was near the truth on the 9th OF JAM last, 1t
is plain that the game is not yet won OF iost' IL
majority of three thousand in sixty Thousand Votes,
eight months before an election, may De reauceo 70
minority at the end of that time, even by the Ia
vorable influence of the summer in producing re-
Hection. To the influence Of the summer, we hope
will be added the exertions of every friend to the
cause. Things are in that state, that we have eve,
ry thing to hope from the progress OF events, and
nothing to fear from any new cause that the malgs
nifty Of the Jackson party can bring against the ad-
muisll alton. There is not a Jackson man IN wash

mol know-who would not say, if he had 1t to say
under oath-that the affairs Of the Government, as
far as their condition depends upon the integrity, In
dastry and ability Of those who manage them-are
in as good condton-we believe better condition
than they have been under any administration.

The hostility of the inhabitants OF this countryo
Yards masonic assemblies, does not appear to have
lost any Of its ardor in consequence VI the internal
troubles Of the government. Aproposition was be-
fore the general Congress, the object Oi which was
to prevent in future, 'All secret masonic assemOia-
ges, Of every rite, denomination and origin wha'so
ever" These measures against a charitable and
humane institution. together with the yindictive spl-
rit with which the persecution Of the old Spanards
have been followed up, evince disposition IN the
Mexican government in our opinion decidedly anti
republican, and at variance with liberal anu en-
ghtened policy. The obstinacy with which SPAN
persists in her determination to refuse an acknowl-
edgement of the independence OF the Mexican
States may with reason, be assigned, as in the pa
pers before us tis as the primary cause OF the harsh
ness of the which are now adopting against
those who may in some sort, be considered as the
subjects Of that Kingdom for it will be observed,
that should Spain recognize the independence OF her
rcvoled colonies, the Act for the expulsion OF the
Spaniards, isby an express stpulation rendered OF
| no effect.
| On the first Of January, the National brig Doris,
arrived at Vera Cruz, from Campeche, without
having encountered any of the enemies squadron.
BY some of the passengers the editors OF the Vera
cruzano informed that the brig Gertrude
which had been captured off the harbor OF vera Cruz
| contrved to escape from her captors, with two
Mexcans rose upon the Spaniards, succeeded IN
overcoming them, and gaining possession OF the YES
sci ran her into Campeache, with all her cargo on
board.
The address sfthe President to the Congress, ap-
pears the opening Of the session of that body takes
view of the relations of Mexico with other nations.
favorable to its present prosperity and augurng a
continuance of peace and harmony in its intercourse
with foreign powers. He recommends to the es-
pecia protection Of the legislature, the Navy under
the command of Com. PORTER, which he considers
to be susceptible of much Improvement and desery.
ing Ut all encouragement
In another address, the President adverts to the
dangerous situation in which the government was
placed by the revolutions which had been excited
in the different Provinces, in tone which does not
appear to us very hattering indication of the con-
iidence VI the republic in its own strength and re.
sources. As however, the date Of this address Is
the second Of January, and the rebellion to which
the President alluded have been subsequently quel
ed in the manner above related, the cause of his
fears have been removed, and there is at present.
but little to apprehend from the attempts Of the dis
affected.

BUCHANAN'S CONFESSION.
From the Marylander.

The last address of MIR. Clay, had not only salts.
fled most honest, and all intelligent minds, Of his
innocency, but Of the wicked tendency O. the CON-
lieyed, and the many who pretended TO believe, in
the stale and Improbable tale Of bribery and coru
ton, were marked as being either incorrgby stupid
or wickedly perverse. All the honorable men, per.
haps, of Gen Jackson's party, had ceased to speak
of it, but as of refuted slander. In this state Of
the affair, on Wednesday night last, Mr.. James Bu'
chanan, General Jackson's witness. came out IN de-
bate on Chiltons resolution and declared in the pre-
sepce and in the hearing Of all present, "that as 10
anu knowledge Of a,ay hing like corruption, ne dts
claimed ii he knew nothing about a." Had this
gentleman been thus explicit IN his letter oi the 9th
Of August last, it would have been much more sra'
clousy received by the friends of truth, and lovers
Of justice.
