Deduct sth,

10000
Such will be about Tho aggregate
" This estimate is founded both past results and on
present information from reliable from all parts
the State With the prevalent enthusiasm for Jackson and
Van Buren, the popular current in favour of the Veto
along with the odium of the coalition shall not be
prised If this estimate 10 OOO shall swell in the actual re-
suit to 10000. You may count upon New York. You
may do without hazard or doubt
Over Pennsylvania, there is as little cloud of
doubt. We have letters which put us ut ease upon
this subject. We aware, that the Election of
Governor i'm October is sort of pioneer to the No
vember contest-Jackson and Wolf running against
Wirt(?) and Rner-and that dsingenuous efforts
have been made saddle Wolf with the censure of
the direct tax which is coming to meet the loans
for Internal Improvements. But this argument is
now made to recoil upon Ritner with tremendous
forcebecause has been proved by the record that
he voted for the great mass of those appropriations
and loans Upon this election, too, the National Re-
publican Party do not cling together. In Dauphin
county, for instance, the most intelligent of the
party have, their honor be it said, had meeting and
determined to support Wolf The Pittsburg States
man, Ia Clay paper) has ''aready decided in favor of
the reelection of Mr.. Wolf" Ritner is poor crea-
ture, and a notorious changcling in Politics. The
last suit he has assumed is that of Anti Masonry
In word, the friends of the administration are hold
ing meetings in all the countes-organizing them
selves for the contest, and confident ofsuccess. What
says the "Hanisburg Reporter" of Friday last?
1--WE had prepared, for this days paper abstracts of
the proceedings of the Democratic Republican meetings
recently held in the counties of Toga, Westmoreland
Union, Montgomery, Franklin Schuylkill, Lycoming
Iuzene, Bradford Erie Crawford, Adams Miffn Ju-
niaa, Northampton and Fayes but owing their great
length, must defer their publication until our next
At ell OF them, resolutions unanimously adopted in
favor OF Jackson aud Wolf aud the proceedings go
show that democracy awake and determined do her
duty Prospects cheering in every part of the State
and no doubt exist the intelligence receive is but
half good represented, that the democratic par
~ will again triumph at our next election by over
whelmng majority"
In word, Mr. Clay will get the votes Of Massachu-
sets, Rhode Island and Connecticut, Vermont some
what doubtfuE for the Anti-Masons mark rs their
own')-7 in Maryland, 3 from Delaware, if Major
Noah will spare it from his "breeches- pocket" and
perhaps i'm Ohio and 5 in Louisiana. We think
his vote all told. But if he should receive more, he
will not get enough to battle the surages of the peo-
pie, and transfer the election the intrigues of the
al. of II. AT all events, we entertain doubt of
Gen. Jackson's reelection by proper cxertions on
the part of his Observation-Disclosures elements of
opposition may be combined against him. The peo-
pie will have him again for their Chief Magistrate
Clayism Ant-Masonry, and the Banll-Gen. c.. Col
W., Messrs. Simpson and Norris and all that sort of
people, 10 the contrary Notwithstanding. But we
profess TO be no prophets, or oraces-and read
ers must judge for themselves
THE SoUrH.-we have accounts of some further
movements in Georgian Jones county, Meeting has
been held which pledged itself to cooperate
daily in any and every peaceabe and constitutional
dy, having for its object the ameoraon our people
from the expressions of the Tarif'-and deprecated
the dsorganizng, msshapen, and l-omened doctrine of
Nullihcaon as tending to disruption OF the Union and
civil war'-They "disappTove the recommendation to
appoint delegates to State Convention with such uniim
tied and underlined powers But circumstances should
make necessary in that measure shall pro-
test against the binding efficacy any said conven
Hion which not duly ratified by the people Of the re-
spective countless or majority of the people of tho
State."-TwO meetings have been held in Columbia
county The one on the 23d adopts the resolutions of
Athens and determines TO appoint Delegates to the Con-
vention Of Milledgeve The other met on the 25b and
passed resolutions for awaiting the result the Tariff of
81, condemning the doctrine of Notifications discaming
any Convention which is vested with unlimited power
put determining IN the event of there being Conven-
ton, send Delegates with limited and crcumscribed au
ehcdty Both these meetings pledged themselves to sup
port Gen. jackson.
The Augusta Courier also gives the responses of Messrs
4. Is. Longstee, T. Glascock, H. Mealing c. f. HAYNES
and e. w Owens candidates for the Legislature i'm Rich
county the circular letter OF the Augusta Com.
Sittee-Mr. Longsircct is in favor of Nuiication-AI
che rest condemn it-coasderng it neither as consti-
vutiona peaceful efficient remedy against the oppres-
sions of the Tariff
South Cdroiiaa.-we lay this morning before our rea-
ders, speech Of Judge VIM, Smith, whose name among
all the friends of State Rights in South Carolina stands
the hghestin Virginia. He has been their uniform and
devoted frend-We iay also before them letter from
Mr. Cheves, one OF the most highly gifted of that
highly gifted State His genius and services, and high
sense Of honor enile him be heard. He is opposed TO
The Tarh-and TO Notification, and in favor of a South
ern Conventon-The Charleston Mercury comments on
Mr. C's letter-and says, among other things that "he
a Convention simply or Delegates of tire peo-
pie, and not of Delegates chosen by the Legislatures OF
the Southern States, and representing their respective
States In their sovereign capacities This latter kind of
Convention Is clearly forbidden by that provision Of
Constitution which nhbits any compact agreement be-
tween State and any other State without the consent
Oh tue mercury aware that in this
gard 1t contradicts Mr. Jellerons scheme in '9S
which they profess to follow His draught of the en-
lucky Resolutions proposes appoint committee of con-
ference and correspondence TO communicate The pre
ecding resolutions the legislatures OF the several
States and while they the principle that
" null1cation of the act is the r@litlui remedv'-
they are 10 assure the other States tat nevertheless This
Commonwealth from motives Of regard and yespecf for
Us Co States, has wished TO communicate with them on
the subecfand the 9th Resolution also authorizes the
said Committee o communicate, by writing or personal
conferences, at any times places whatever oikh anu
Pcrso" or persons who zay he appointed by any one
or more OF the cosates TO correspond or confer with
them; AMI that they lay their proceedings before the
next session Of Assembly "-Now, what difference
does it make, whether these committees consist of
one or dozen members? If they meet for per-
sondt conference, is il not TO all ntents and pur
poses, Convention? The Mercury indeed goes on and
does not deny them the power Deliberate but not TO ACT
and says if called TO deliberate, tits powercss and
idle Indeed. this is discovery which escaped the
ken Of Mr.. Jefferson himself
But some Of the Mercurys present friends were once in
favor oil Southern Conyenton-as, for instance Mr. I
