INDIANA.
The Connersville Wstchmsn of the 22l, an Opposition
paper, mus speaks, aud we have no doubt truly, OF the
late Election:
"The election in this State, eveniuaiing as it has, in the
success OF Governor Noble over Judge Read, is, we oh.
serve, regarded by some private persons and some public
newspapers, as indicative of the feeling of this State re-
la'iye to the administration OF The General Government
Amongst others, a late number OF the Cincinnati Gazette
speaks OF the triumph Of Gov. Noble, as a triumph over the
Administration. This we feel confident, is giving a wrong
aspect 10 the state OF politics in Indiana. This State, al
we iae Presidential election, gave General Jackson a de-
cided majority. Aud we are pretty clearly Of the opinion.
that II that election had been delayed until The first Mon.
day III August last, Gen. Jackson would even then,
have had a majority over MIR. Clay. Though we
are not oil the opinion That a majority OF the People OF
this State approve OF the late acts of the Admins
iraiion, in the abstract but this matter had very
little, II any thing, 10 do with the late election for Go.
vernon. Governor Noble is a very popular man: and
we doubt not, but that there are thousands in this State
who voted Tor him, that would at The same time have vot-
ed for General Jackson, had he then been before them
Tor his second term. Atihe last Gubernatorial election Gen.
Sapp was voted Tor and got nine or ten thousand voice.
We calculate that the most OF his votes were at the late
Election given 10 Gov. Noble. These, added 10 the ma.
jority by which he succeeded over Read before, will not
vary lar IRON his present majority. In a very large, IL
not the greater part OF the State, there was very little, il
any excitement as TO this election. The people, as 10
Goyernor, went calmly and deliberately 10 The polls and
voted according to their predictions. forgcriul of party.
Hence II is, that we think they are misled who set down
our Governors election as a test OF the feeling of the State
as to the Administration
