We cannot help being at loss, to account fol
the pertnacity with which our opponents continue
to insist upon the probability Ct Mr.. Adams be-
Ing reelected As people Of sense, who can rea
son, who can see and read, we should cxpec. then
willing to admit, that u rational hope Of success
was gone; that howe, or much they might talk of a
good cause, and OF never abandoning their prnci
pies, they would admit that hope was gone; and
that although they were 10 be martyrs, they never
would be martyrs triumphant. The truth is, very
many of tile Adams men are gulled, by those VIII"
are behind the curtain and know BETTER than what
il is their inclination or their interest, to tell the
blind followers Of the party. They are embarked
so deeply that they cannot go back-there is no
locus peenetintc for them; and like many misera
Bile wretches, anticipating eternal ruin, they find
consolation in the number OF their companions.
We believe no man in his senses, who looks over
the whole ground, doubts at all as to the result
not even of the very many who are feeding their
constituents with false views, and delusive state
ments,-views and statements which they know to
be false First, they are to have Pennsylvania
then Virginia. and then New York! Hear now

as derived from that sort of authority Which events
will verify. We speak in earnestness and SINGER

virtue and patriotism of the majority; rather thar
