The contrast between this table and ours Is GER
tainly very striking: We divide eigh Counties
in the whole State; the Sentinel eighteen. Our
extremes are $1,000 and 8 600 disparity p. 600,
but, correcting the error which we followed in the
population Of Monroe, would be reduced to l8, 900,
with nias Counties divided. The Sentinel's eS-
tremes are 10000 and 80 O0O-disparity $4,000,
with eightc>u Counties divided. Beside,
arges, Districts are formed Of Counties certain to
decrease in comparative population, while our de-
Gciont Districts equally certain TO increase; a.
viii be seen by a comparison. The Sentinel ex-
ac,ly the reverse.
But the Sentinel intimates that our Districts
were cut out with view to political advantage
but it, own Otherwise. Now will not speak of
the Scntincrs; but OF our We can say that We
had never calculated OF examined the Political
bearings of the several Districts proposed till after
this intimation; and We now, on inspection, find
that only ftrclre Of our Districts are Wing and
some six doubtful out Of the thirty.four; sixteen
being decidedly Loco-Foco. Is this unfair

~ We expect and are quite willing that the
Loco-F oco press will pronounce the wrong
side of this duestion-indeed. ~ can hardly wish
it otherwise Bu, the Daily neod not trouble il
self 10 make positions for US We never differed
with any one for preicrring Tariff r'h0m Dis
tribution 10 ucifhcr, though we do not concur in
the policy of giving up Distribution, which We now
have secure, for chance of Obtaining a better
Tarih thereby which We have no faith IN. But
the great first cause of difference between US and
the Democrat is its assertion that the Wings in
Congress will be Justly held responsible for the
loss Of the Tariff, ii they pass retaining D.iri-
button, and John Tyler veiocs il on that account.
WcinsSt tsai If Congress shall pass such bill as
the majority believe right, and John Tyler vctoes
it on a ground which hs. no color Of Constitutional
scruple ia il, he and hi. hackers viii be wholly
responsible for The failure Of the measure, and
Congress not atall. Any Wing paper which lends
itself to give councaance to the opposite idea does
great injury and wrong TO the true-hearted majority
OF Congress.
