Oo-In looking over the official vote Of this State
for Presidential Electors, we end. says the Courant.
that Mr., Clay has majorities over Mr.. Polk in 90
towns entitled to 1875 Representatives--Mr.P Polk
over Mr. Clay in 90 towns entitled to 81 Represen.
tatives- and in Q towns entitled to Representa-.
tives there is tie vote. OF the Senatorial dis.
tricts the Wings have carried 10 Of the 81. We
have already stated that if there had been an elec
ton for members Of Congress we should have cho.
sen the whole delegation. In seven Of the eight
counties the Wings have pluralities, and in Mid.
dlesex the Loco plurality is only 30. We are glad
to notice that there is disposition among the
Wings of the State to maintain the position they
now so proudly occury--every man who voted for
Mr., Clay is ready to do battle again in behalf Of
Wing principles. This rs right, and 90 long % our
friends feel thus we shall not fear the result. s
