THE ELECTION, AND VOTE OF VIRGINIA.
BY the time this paper reaches the
more remote of our Virginia subscri-
bers, the Sd Of November will have ar
rived; and we cannot permit this last
opportunity to escape, without once more
recommending the friends of the Admi.
nistration to move in solid columns to
the polls. In county majorities, or in
county minorities raining Or shining
sick or well--let nothing but death in
the house, or death Immediately expect
ed, detain them from the polls OF all
excuses for noting, that OF its being use
less, is the most childish and insufficient.
II the contest was wholly, and aeknow.
lodged by all, TO be desperate, il is no ar
gument against voting. Voting is a duty,
independent of all circumstances, and
which is no less duty to the supposed
minority. than the supposed majority.
Friends of the Administration: If the
result prove close, have il not to re.
proach yourselves with, that, BY your
inertness, Virginia has been lost. Regard
not the result as a motive for going to,
or staying from the polls. Do your part
in the great crisis, and then let fate de-
eide the rest.
But, good friends, why should we think
the game so wholly desperate3 Our ad.
versaries have indeed told us this-told
it with their accustomed staggering
confidence and gasconade. But are they
always good authority3 Has not their
sanguine temperament claimed every
thing that was doubtful, and have we not
seen their calculations falsified thou
sand times3 Do we not know. that II
Virginia was this moment for the I'D.
ministration, that the Jackson party
would claim it not the less confidently9
The truth is, that, in relation to The
vote of Virginia, all is guess work. The
Jacksonians have positively claimed it,
and il has been conceded to their idol.
