a comparison of the votes which Mr.. Adams
has received, with those of the other federal cand-
dates in former contests, exhibits nearly the same
relative strength, and it is no less remarkable that
their support in almost every instance IS from the
same States. The aristocracy OF New Eng land
have in all trying periods Of political conflict. been
able to carry this section of the Union in opposition
to the republican candidates We are aware that
many well meaning republicans in this and other
New England States have been made 10 believe
that Mr.. Adams was republican, and it has been
the constant aim of their old adversarics. to place
this before them in the light of personal contest.
The following is table of the votes given for
President and Vice President at the contested
elections since General Washington's retirement.
and will be Of interest at this time. Connecticut
has in ever, instance from 1896 given her vnte for
the federal candidate, except iu 1920. when there
was no opposition to the re election OF Mr.. Mon
roe.

After reading these facts, can any one doubt the
correctness OF the assertion that Jackson is the
publican, and Adams the aristocratic candidate !:
Republicans you who have hitherto i'een Induced
to support Adams, ponder on these things, and il
convinced Of your error, as think you must he
