Their triumph is complete. Almost decisive vote

General jackson, and it remains for the friends OF
the present Administration 10 evnce by their parlo-
tic forbearance and devotion to the great leading in

not for men, that they have been contendlng So
far as our own wishes or opinions may influence

to act, we unhesitailngy declare, they both shall
be freely and honestly given to sustain any act in the
Administration of Gen. Jackson. which we would
have supported had Mr. Adams been the choice OF
the people.
From the Ut,ca Sentinel
We are reioced that contest so acrimonious and
bitter has at last terminated and though 1t has not
resulted in the manner we had hoped and ex-
pccted, shall not say at the commencement OF the
new Administration, as the combination party at the
commencement of Mr.. Adams that 6 though il
were as pure as the angels at the right hand ofGod

Judge by its measures, and shall cheerfuly appauc

Here then we have the privately declared opno
of General Jackson, tna he is in favor of the prir
, ciple and policy of the Tariff practised by NJ

the never ending pm of ,vernor Giles, as well
the opposition of the great body Of southern pot

e manufactures, spoken Of BY the General, that Ell
listed him and them agans, Mr.. Adams. It is U.s.
: less to be antciT a'ing the acts Of the Admnstr

await the result without iniulging in speculation
which never may be realized. Ii General Jackso
