PROSPECT OF UNION AND CONCERT IN
PENNSYLVANIA.

PENNSYLVANIA.
In New York, tho amalgamation of the two
great divisions of the opposition, the National Re-
publicans and Anti .Masons, seems complete and
the consequent defeat of jackson and the Rcgen.
cy, is anticipated with undoubting confidence In
fact, the Republican papers of that State seem al.
most ready to "gve it up" may easily perceive
that they expect to be beaten. Little Cresswell of
the Argus, affects to DO cheerful, and as he has
$4,000 per annum staked on the result will, like
his dsintercsted ally in this vicinity, fight despcr.
atcly for Mister Jackson, he was wont in Craw-
ford times to style the Hero. But, whosoever will
take the trouble to think for one moment, must
willingly or unwillingly, be persuaded, that Gen.
Jackson's defeat in N. York, is an event altogether
probable. In 1928, N. York voted by Districts,
and of her electoral votes. Gen. jackson obtained
eighteen, Mr.. Adams sixteen, ,thc eighteen elect
ing the other two.} Gen. Jackson's eighteen Elect
ors received at the polls, but five thousand three
hundred votes, more than Mr.. Adams. We imagine
no man will contend that Gen. Jackson has strength
ened himself since his election, in N. York, g. but
few will deny that ho has every where much fewer
friends than in 1923. A very uncomfortable
change only is therefore necessary to deprive Gen.
Jackson of tho whole vote of New York, that
Commonwealth now voting by general ticket. The
growth of the Anti masonic Party since 1928, is
more than sufficient to counterbalancc Jackson's
majority of that year. In fine, his overthrow in
New York appears to us, inevitable.
From Pennsylvania also, tho most encouraging
expectations justified by the character of poll.
tical events, and we have now tho warm and cor
dial satisfaction of announcing the certain pros.
pect of n union between the National Republicans
and Anti-Masons in that State. BY the following
article it will be seen, that The National Republican
State Committee about TO assemble Mt Harris
burg, and the object of the movement certainly is
to withdraw the Clay Electoral Ticket, in order
that the whole strength of the opposition may be
! concentrated on that of the nt-Masons.
From the Pennsylvania Inquirer of Saturday.
tIhe National Republican state committee will
assemble at Harrisburg to-day. The alarming doc
trines of the veto mtssage and tho course pursued
by the friends of the state administration upon the
subject, have induced the state committee to hold
this meeting, with the object, if correctly
informed. of re-assembkng the National Republi-
can State Convention 1t will be remembered that
at the great meeting few weeks since held in this
CITY, in disapprobation of the veto message,
luton was offered by Mr.. Randall leading ,raeni-
Der of the National Republican party, recommend
ing that all the members of tho opposition in this
state, unite upon one electoral ticket adverse to
Jackson; This resolution was unanimously adopt
ca, and has been responded to in the proper spirit
by various public meetings of the opponets of
Jackson, since held throughout the state The
National Republicans, we are assured, are
prepared to make every sacrifice consistent
with their principles, and what they owe
to their country. II il rs found mpossi
bic for any arrangement to be made by which
portion of the Anti Masonic electoral ticket will
give place to portion of the National Republican
ticket, we believe the friends of the latter are will
ling to withdraw their entire ticket rather than by
division of the opposition suffer the electoral vote
OF the state to be secured to the existing admins
tration. Such disposition on the part of the Ma
tonals SO disinterestcd and patriotic, is worthy of
all appreciation. The times out of joint and it
pehooves every freeman who values his country and
her institutions to be prepared yield little, and
to give up oil personal preferences for the common
good"
lottcr from distinguished gentleman in Phi
ladelphia a few days ago says, 'With us here
every thing is progressing beyond our utmost
hopes, and but for the Governors Election which
unfortunately takes place this fall the State would
be unanimous against the depraved and degenerate
old man whom infatuation has called to preside
over u.s."
For ourselves-we have the lveliest faith in the
proslration of Jacksonism in November.
