Mr.. STEVENSON goes on 20 state, in his affidavit,

very eircumstantia and goes into particulars, not
essentially necessary for our readers 10 get fair
understanding of the matter. Mr.. SWEET the May

Mr.. GLENrnwoRTn in procuring voters, which they

IS If the editor of the South Carolina
Temperance Advocate is done with our
" BuncOmbe avedding," we have a ques-
ton 70 ask him: Brother, how is it you
suffer correspondents TO steal poetry from
the Salmagundi and call it their own!-
Answer us lhat!-IHghlaad Messenger.
Why really BROTHER, that is more than
we can answer. From our heart we wish
they would do no worse than steal poeh q,
but the folks down this way steal the very
coat off an Editors back, and if we can't
prevent that, You may be sure we cannot
prevent their stealing from Salmagundi.
But if the Messenger will point ont the
stolen article we will restore it TO Salma-
gundi, and if he sees any thing of our
stolen ovsr-coat up in Buncombc, we
hope he will reciprocate the favor.

THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

All speculation on this subject is now perfectly
idle, and we shall not therefore trouble our readers
with anv of our opinions as to the probable result.
We have made up our mind 10 bear with oil possible
fottude the wreck of the hopes we had entertained
of the clection of MARTIN VAN buren,, and like
Jacob Faithful to expect better luck next time"
A sufficient number of States will have given their
votes for one or tho other Of the candidates. before
our paper reaches. most of its readers to decide the
election Ohio, and Pennsylvania voted on Friday
last the former giving 81 and the latter 80 votes
Maine, New Hampshire, Connoctscut, New York,
Virginia, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Missouri,
Arkansas, Georgia, Mississippi and kentucky voted
on Monday last, New Jersey, Louisiana and Ten
ncssec, on yesterday; Rhode Island today. Mas
sachusetts, Maryland and Alabama will give their
votes on Monday next, Vermont ard Delaware on
Tuesday; and North Carolina Oh TsuYday the 18th
instant Tho South Carolina electors, are the last
chosen. Tac election is made by the Legislature
In all the other States the people choose the electors
BY general ticket The whole number of votes IS
294 and including the elections which are to be held
this day, the votes of 10 States will have been cast
making an aggregate Of 225 votes, from which it
rnay be determined beyond doubt who is, or is not
10 be the successful candidate. The returns from
these elections arc looked for with grcat anxiety, BY
many; but having made up our minds as to the re-
sult VIC shall wait patiently for the official conhr-

Mr. STEVENSON and it is corroboraicd by letters and
receipts for money paid
On the other side, the Wings assert, that CLIENT
woRru's mission to Philadelphia, was to procure per-
sons to detect and ent frauds, similar to that now
charged on the Wings, which was contemplated by
the Democratic party.
These disclosures will in all probability, have
prevented the accomplishment of any such fraud by
cithor purity at tho election just held.
