xspects and Prospects

The Rochester Daily Advertiser asks us by
what rule we infer from the rerults of the recent
Elections that Tennessee and North Carolina are
certain to vote for Mr.. Clay, and do not infer,
from the results in the other States which recently
voted, that these will go against Mr.. Clay? This
inquiry is very natural and fair one, and we
shall answer it fully and frankly.
In the first place, we think NORTH CAROLINA
is certain to vote for Mr.. Clay next year, no,
merely because the Wings in the recent contest
have polled more votes than their opponents, nor
even because they have done better in the aggre
gate popular vote of the contested Districts than
they did last year, but because they haze gained
zohsre the uote is heariest. There was furious
storm in that State on the day of Election, and
the vote is many thousands lighter than 1t other
wise would have been. But III two of the Dis
tricts-Rayner's and Arrington's--one Wing and
the other not-the interest felt in the Election
was so strong as to overrule the pouring rain and
maddened water-courses Qhere are few bridges IN
Carolina,) and call out heavier vote than last
year. In each of these Districts there is q de-
cided Wig gain upon the Governor vote Of last
year, when the Wing candidate had majority
of 4,745 The gain in these two Districts is Sal
similar result throughout the State would make
the aggregate Wing gain 2,43O and the majority
over 1000. We presume no one doubts that the
vote for President will be heavy one, rain or
shine consequently, we see not how any one can
escape the conclusion that Mr. Clay's majority in
the State will be very large one.
The same reasoning applies to TENNESSEE. We
claim the vote of that State certain for Mr. |
Clay, not merely because the Wings have carried
the State on every ticket by a majority increased
from the last preceding Election nor yet only
because the issues were very broadly made on Ma
tional questions alone-the Wings putting their
measures and their men most distinctly before the
People, and asking support for their sakes alone
but because the rote is cery large one-larger
than polled in lS4l !; probably the largest ever
poled in the State. We have not yet the
full votc-the majorities only being returned
from many Counties-but we give what full re-

crosby on the part Of this individual is related in

eve have before us at this moment docu.
ment entirely in the handwriting of the Presi.
dent, bestowing free pardon to Asa Hill, one Of
the Texans made prisoners at the battle of Mier.
Il was a son of this Mr.. Hill who distinguished
himself so s:gnally in that desperate fight. He
was lad Of but l3 at the time, but he dealt out
death to the Mcxicans Ike a veteran, killing u

ing officer. His gallantry caught the attention
OF Mexican Colonel and was reported to Gen.
Ampudia, by whom the lad was at once set at
liberty Under the protection of Ampudia, he
was taken to Mexico, while the father and an
other son were conveyed ththcr as prisoners of
war. The lad was presented to Santa Ana, with
statement of his exploits, and the President is
now educating him at his own expense, and as
sures the father that he will look well TO his iu.
ture interests. The pardon which has been grant
ed to Mr. EIill alleges in the body of it that j. is
in consideration of the advanced are and the nl.
merous family of the prisoner that it was con.
ceded. We suspect admiration OF the young
son had quite as much to do with it. MIR Hill
reached Our city yesterday, and was to leave last
evening for his family in Texas. He seems very
well satisfied to leave his boy under the proec.
ton of the President, and confirms the opinion
very generally entertained that all the Texans
now confined in Mexico will be liberated in Sep.
tcmber next.

This morning, at l0I o'clock, the village OF

steamer St Lawrence, which had lett the dock

fearful rapdtv, enveloping IN a few moments tne

FIR east as the steamboat Office, formerly occupied
bv William Buckley. The fire soon crossed the
street, DESTROYING the Commercial Hotel and all
the intermediate buildings between that and the
Centre House. kept by A. Schuyler, which was
saved. The brick building opposite the Com
merciaI, occupied as a saddlcr's shop, was also
DESTROYED, and all the buildings on both sides Of
