II will be s. en- from the proceedings of the Ma
tiHnal Republican State Committee, inserted else.
where. that the Ma ional Republican State Couven.
ton has been called together tn fffceRtho Of Oc-
fober merit affer The gubeynatoriaL contest. The
members of The committee, prudent and patriotic
men, discu. scd The subject, no doubt adequately
and well. The influence of their determina on up
on he gubernatoral contest it is impossible 10 tell
with certainty. 1t ~ well known, however, that
many OF the most active and ardeRt friends of Gen.
Jlcksun in several of the interior counties we'll
as III Phii,delphi, equally de, lied their sup
port OF Joseph Riiner for Governor. Ii is possible
therefore, that had the National Republicans taken
up Mr. Riiner, and thus off ally identified him with
the Clay opposition, he would have lost great ma.
ny Jackson votes. A 1t s, :hc great majority of
the National Republicans will vote for Ritncr--al
the friends of Van Buren, viii vote for hm--the
Anii-M Masonic party Will for him, and thus
while he will lose of the National Rrpubl can
v.es. because he has not been o6icialy nomin ated
by that patty. he vi still receive the Jackson votes
OF hn var"as Counties throughout the STATE, known
to he warmly opposed to Wolte but Indifferent with
regard t" the President.
On the other hand, thei re is another advantage TO
be derived from the policy of the State committee
IL IL well known, notwitnS andng tho on,ilential
friends of Governor W oil have, since the veto, and
as a matter of necessity, taken an avowed and dc
cided stand in favor of the reelection of Andrew
jackson, that they are in reality oppose to such
reelection, and WILL the moment the necessity for
their present course no longer existshut is. AFTER
oppose the President. This course they are now
pIedged I" purste if we CONCEIVE Alright the argu-
inont that were made of during the recent
ng If the State nnttec.
i Til the course pursued by the National R,pub.
licrns. while it benefit Mr.. RItncr will essen
italy injuro the President, it is well understood
that the only object for which the National Repub-
hcans Ill meet on the if zenith of Octuber next,
iS t" unite with the Anti Masonic parry upon oEE
ELECTORAL TICKET. That ticket will receive the
support OF the National Rnpu5liclns--ihe Anil
NJ 'sons-ihe democratic dis>en:ers from Jackson
ism, and we much mi take il 1T will not be sup
ported by large majority OF those who are NOW
friendly to Gov. Well. With such a combin .tinn
therefore, who doubt that the electoral vote
of Pennsyl vania is los. to Jlckaon.
From the PhiLadelphia u. States Gazette
a friend VIII" has recently returned 10 this citv
from tour through most of tie counties in this
state, East OF the mountains, us that he
Was truly surprised tn note the very many changes
which had taken place in tine circle of his cxtcnsiv
acquaintance, from adhesion lo Jacksonisn, 10 OPP
position to his misrulc. We did not stop o inquire
whether those who had renowned Jackson had de
clared Themselves partsans Of Mr.. Clayv-ihe news
at present, of secession from JackEonisn, is c.
nough.
