Constitutional Whig. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1824-1832, 1832-09-07

Ii we are correct in this estimate of the relative
state of parties, it would appear that of the 2sS
electoral votes, "a may be set down as certain for
General Jackson, 81 as certainly opposed to him.
and 1877 doubtful The doubtful votes are Maine.
New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania, three
votes i'll Maryland, Kentucky, Ohio and Indiana.
We propose to glance at the probable result, and
the causes which will operate on the election in
those States put down doubtful.
Maine gave majority Of 6S46 against Gen. Jack
son. and we confidently believe that the course pur-
sued by the administration on the boundary oues
ton, added to the general of detection will
ton.
Now Hampshire gave majority of 1909 for Mr.
Adams; but sucn has been the influence OF the pat
ronage OF the Government on the State, that it is
probable she Will vote for General jackson.
Now FORK gave majority of $3.50 votes for &C.
neral Jackson out Of 277, 176 votes; a change of
2eIh votes, or less than every hundred will
giyo her AZ votes in opposition; and although we
do not deem 1T necessary in this article, to specify
individuals it is known that many of the anti-ma-
sons voted for the Jackson electoral ticket; these
VIII no,o be united on the opposition ticket. Be-
sides many OF the most Jealous supporters of Ge-
neral Jackson, who do not belong to the anti.rna.
some party, will unite against him. We consider
New York decided opposition State.
Pennsylvania.-This State gave a majority of
5O,S04 votes 10 General jackson; yet we believe
that her vote will now be decidedly opposed to him.
we take 1t for granted that the friends of Mr.
declaration
that they will support Mr.. Writ, in preference to
General Jackson. Of the I0l $50 votes cast for
General Jackson in 1923, very large part have
rallied under the anti-masoDic flag; so large a por-
ton that the friends OF Governor Wolf entertain
the most serious approximations that Mr.. Ritner
the anti-masonic candidate for Governor, will be
elected. To the body of the anti-uasonic vote
which is to be given to Ritncr for Governor, on
the second Tuesday of October, is to be added all
those friends Of Mr.. Clay, many of whom prefer
MIR. Wolf, and are pledged to support him, and all
that body of seeding Jackson men, such as the
two Thousand naturazed Irishmen of PHILADELPHIA
Mr.. lngbam. and their Numerous friends through.
ont the State, who will vote for Governor Wolf
but against Jackson. This influence in the State
we are induced to believe, will not DC less than hE
teen to twenty thousand votes. We arc, therefore
confident that the vote of the State will be given
against General Jackson, unless Governor Wolf is
elected by majority Of above thirty thousand votes
over Mr.. Ritnor. Whereas as we have before STA
ted, the friends Of Governor Wolf are in groat
alarm, and many of the hest informed, despair Of
MS reelection. We therefore, set down Pennsyl-
wanna as decidedly opposed to Jackson.
