THE ART or GULLING
The most systematic eforts are now making to
hoodwink the people.-The parasites of the Adj
| minisraton affect to talk about reaction They
tried the same system OF deception, the last year.
! They claimed Pennsylvania, n. York, N Caro-
lima, Virginia. but the elections dissipated the emp
| ~ buboles in their hands.-And yet they talk
| OF re action. The Nat lntelligencer is even sill
| ly enough to whimpcr about two votes in Tennes-
see. IL boldly misreprescnts the vote in Fred
erick county, in Virginia-without informing its
I readers, as respect for truth should have promp-
ted, that Mr.. Ship was Jackson candidate as
we'll as Messrs. Mason and Cas,cman-run bv
the Adams gentlemen for the purpose of lessen
| ing the votes of Mason and Castieman-.that Mr.
Barton Che only Adams candidate) had pledged
himself, confessing il was a Jackson county to A.
bide by the peoples WILL and that for several rea-
sons Gas stated by the Winchester Virginian,) Mr.
Barton received several Jackson votes.-Jackson's
majority In that county will be triumphant as il
will DE overwhelming throughout Virginia. But
let the inteiigencer go on with its onesided state
ments-the day ofreckoning = at hand.
But there Is no State, whose sentiments there
Is so deliberate an effort 10 nsrepresent, as those
OF n. York. The best-informed politicians ridi-
cule the very IDEA of q reaction there. Where
Is the evidence of it? Is il TO be found in the Adj
ans Convention which is to meet in June, when

extraordinary attempts to enlist one or two names

for many years, the Republican ,(the CIintonians
and the Bucktails) uniting together under
the common banner of their party. They also are
expected to meet in Convention-and TO combat
resolutions with resolutions and addresses with adj
idresscs.---The Anti Masonic fever will scarcely
promote the cause Of the Coalition. Measures are
taking to quiet the feelings of the people. The
Dill Tor appointing special Commissioner 70 en-
quire into the murder of Morgan, will pass by near

are doing every thing they to soothe the pre-

late elections and meetings 10 show the increasinr
strength of the Jackson party. In allusion to an
estimate which was recently made, in the Enqui-
rer, OF the Electoral votes, (n which 10 votes in
n. York were assigned TO Mr. Adalns) the Argus
says, =" 1t is undoubtedly more bv about votes
than Mr.. A. will receive in this State. The
kingston Plebeian', in Ulster county, asserts,
that " Cen J. Will, after all, get at least iliJtU-
three out OF the 80 electoral votes of n York -

More coinage of the 6rain.-No Galsehools are
too gross to be thrown into circulation against Cen

new illustration of his profanity and bosierous
disposition The other Administration prints have
seized it with avidity and circulating it with.
out the slightest evidence of its truth. They pre-
tend to say, that his arrival at the mouth OF
