CORRECTION.

In our preliminary observations yesterday on the
letters of the Electors, we said: ''Somc of them
indeed, Massrs. Homer of Fauqucr, and Mason
of Frederick, declare their resolution of abiding
by the voice of the People if clearly expressed, but
even they guard the concession jealousy, and
it is evidently, extorted from them by the force of
the proposition so much against their wills, that
their purpose is left involved in obscurity."
For Mr.. Mason of Frederick read Mr. Carrill
of Sussex. The mistake occurred in the haste of
the moment. Mr.. Mason alone, of all the Elect
ors appears TO Us to have given the reply to Mr.
GImer, which might have been expected from a
Virginia Republican. The rest evade the question.
obiuscate their answers TO unn;olligibiIity, or
give flat negation TO the principle of obedience
to the voice of the People. Their reliance to be
sustained in this course, is upon the omnipoience
Of Jacksonisn, and its inclination to determination
with all and every thing, which ministers TO it's
support. But Jacksonism is mortal, pr nciplo
eternal, and those who abandon the last for the
sake of the first, will perhaps live to sec Jackson
ism extict, while the memory of their transgression
survives.
