"THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
Upon the people of Pennsylvania in n great
measure depends the issue of the next Presidential

the aggregate number of electoral votes in the va.

sary 10 choice in the electoral colleges
south Carolina, it is unquestionable, will throw
her eleven votes away; or if the decision devoyes
upon the House, will vote in favor of another can

OF South Carolina appoints the electors for that
State, ana that Legislature is decidedly opposed to
General Jackson. The votes in the electoral col
