NEW YORK ELECTION.
PRosPDcrs OF Mr. CLAY-Wc yesterday promised
to lay additional evidence before the reader of the
fact assumed by true, that from the indications
of the late election, New York is at this time for
Mr.. Clay.
We know very well, that Throop is elected. bv a
majority says the Courer of not less than seven nor
more than nine thousand-that Livingston is elected
that % Jackson to eleven anti Jackson members
of Congress are eected-and that the State Lepis
lature elect, is Jackson, in the same proportion 1t
appears at the first view, possible to reconcile
these facts with the conclusion for which we cop,end:
yet it is neither impossible, nor difficult The fol-
lowing extracts from Journals of high in diligence
and influence, explain the real state of matters.
The Albany Daily Advertiser, a decided and in
fuential Clay print, went over to Throop few DAVIS
previous to the election preferrng the success of
the Regency to that of anti Masonry Defending
its course and repellng he impuation of having de-
sertedits principles, thai print the 9th hus speaks:
The result of the late election has proved ~ a
voice loud as the thunder, that course was an.
proved by the people and by the party with which
we have always acted. In this and the counties adj
joinng-Rensselaer, Columbia, Montpo and
Oneida, which have given and can at any time OF pe
and will give whenever the question shall distinctlv
come up, majority of three thousand for the ma
tiona republican parry, have now given a majority
OF SeUen thousand fUe hundred for TROOP. Other
counties might b. quoted, but name these ms he
ing IN our vicinity. They have shown in a manner
not to be misunderstood, that the inteerant prlnci-
Piles of anti masonry shall be tolerated amono
them.
The opponents of Jackson who voted for Throon
in the counties enumerated, were enough nearly Of
themselves, to have secured Granger's election A.
mong the friends of Mr.. Clay who filed off with the
Daily Advertiser, were General Van Rensselaer, and
MIR. Van Vechten of Albany, gentlemen of distinc
ton and influence.
The New York Commercial Advertiser is still
more emphatic than the Albany Advertiser
