Dear Sir: the state OF Pennsylvania
is changing rapidly to the side of the
Administration. The people Of this state
are in general honest in their political
course, ADD have honestly believed. until
lately, that jackson was fit to be Presi
dent of the United States. They are
now convinced that they have been mis-,
taken; but the pride OF opinion keeps
thousands from owning the honest con
%victlons of their own hearts. When q
he is naturally unwilling 60 owe TO his
own family, much les. to the public. that
ne has been wrong Those feelings con
sidered, it is astonishing that so many
thousands in Pennsylvania should have
charged, and now publicly espouse the
cause they SO lately opposed; it is, how
ever, a clear proof, that the Jackson
cause is unsupportsble. This county a
few weeks ago was claimed by the Jack
son party, with a majority of 600 votes:
ne,c 1t IS admitted by All sound heads and
honest hearts, to be in favor Of the Ad-
mmistration. The Congressional Dis
%trict, Of which this county forms a part,
| firmly believe, will elect an Admins
%tration member. In The next Congress,
one half of our members win support the
present Administration. Gov. ohulze is
decidedly in favour of the re election Of
Mr. Adams" -
The jackson men make such an up-
roar; they are so desperate in their
stakes; they exult SO extravagantly;
whether they win or lose, they claim the
victory SO loudly; and boast and brag so
prodigally that they induce many quiet,
peace-loving people to think that there is
no use 10 zeal and exertion; for Ihat no
zeal or exertion can carry the vote Of
pennsy lvsnia for the Administrations
We ask our friends to read the above ia.
BILE; TO give their fears to the winds; to
iabour as if upon their individual exer
tons depended the vote of the state; and
then, as sure as they live, Pennsylvania
vii! give a majority of her votes for the
Adams electoral ticket, and redeem the
high character, for principle and %intelli-
genee. which has ever distinguished the
vote OF this Commonwealth Press.
High Tidcs.-A writer in the Boston
Palladium states. that the tides of the
present year have generally been consi-
derably higher than those for many years
preceding, end that those of next year
will be still higher-which is occasioned
by several of the new or full moons, hap
penlng when she is nearest possible to
the earth, the sun quite near, and both in
the equator, the condolences of which
circumstances is absolutely necessary to
produce the greatest possible tide. The
highest tide this year will be on the 25th
inst. when til computed it will rise 10
feet 6 lnches-but should an easterly
storm occur at the sane time, it will be
considerably increased, and those hav,
ing property at the wharves. NC. will do
well to secure it The tide of the i7th of
February last, was computed at the same
height; but although rather depressed by
a 5 w. wiad covered a large portion Of
the Boston whsrYes.
