OI N6W-LOHuOH, oeGTcU1TicS- The meeting passed long string of spirited resolu lions, and among them, the primary object of the meeting, nominating HENRY CLAY, of Ken lucky, candidate to be supported for the Pre- sidency of the United States.

 M0ine.-The election in this State took place on Monday of last week. Returns have been received from considerable portion of the state.

The town of Portland, which las, year elected an,i-Jackson members by small majori- s, has this year elected Jackson hy majority of about a hundred! So we go. While the admns,ra- ton folks are rapidly losing ground in the Western States, in some parts of New England they appear be as rapidly ganing.

 In Vermont, where the election was also held few days ago. the Jackson eng,h does not appear to be very formidable. Three ant-Jackson Representa- lives 10 Congress have been elected over the Jack and Anti Masonic candidates, hut in the other districts it is feared that the two latter tickets will prevent any choice being made. There being also three candidates for Governor il is apprelcnded there may be election, though the National Repub- 
 the others.

Pinckney) is the editor of the Charleston Mercury one of the most zealous ad vocatcs of the perncious nnsirums of Hayne, HamI- ton, Cooper: SSc. in the state of South Carolina. We believe the successful candidate in this election is moderate supporter o the administration Of Gen. Jack son. but decidedly opposed to the infammatory and denuncalory proceedings which have taken place in various parts of that state, and charged by the friends of Mr. Pinckney with being friendly to Henry Clay and some of the measures he advocates: Nwiiifers defeqied.-On Monday the 9th inst. the election of City Officers for the ensuing year took place i" Charleston, s.
