THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION

There is now, we believe, no doubt of the elac,;oa of Martin Van Buren, 10 the Presidency of the UpieJ States, for four years from the ih ol March next - His majority in the Electoral Colleges, however, .li be very small and is believed, that the najorit ha States, and majority of the popular vofss Iiiay ha against him. lie will. therefore f he succeeds, pfob, ably be minority President, with the two principal
 features of the government against hn, the federal and the popular. Of this however, shall be able Ia speak more positively in few days. Whether it should turn out to be so not the face of thncs there cannot be doubt that very large majority of the people opposed to him. and If they had turned out at the election they should have done, he would have been repudiaed by two thirds of the States and more than two thirds of the people.
 1t has, thus far, been the good fortune of this sEnu politician, to succeed by mino,9ties. He was minor ity Governor of New York, and Is now minoriy Vice President. and believe will be shown. has suc- ceeded in being chosen President of the United States by minority of the votes actually boiled at the late election. Under such circumstances, there cannot be much doubt, that his career Chief Magistrate will bc limited to four years.
