We hear nothing from Southwark g. DrsSuthor-

wall; not because he was a Jacksonidn, but because
ho trimmed too closely, and because Mr.. Gowon is
a gentleman of popularity and decision.

the freemon of Virginia, and the Repubiicdnism to

1t will be observed that Mr.. Ritner's majority is
smaller than Mr. Binney's and Mr.. Harpers, and in
the Liberties is far behind Col Wutmough's. This
veri6cs the statements of the Philadelphia letters,
published yesterday-viz. that the Congressional
election, and not that of Governor, would be the
fair test. Many masons who were Clay mens and
who in November will vote against jackson, voted
against Ritner.
