The Baltimore Patriot deyotes one OF les cspaei-
Gus columns, the other day, TO the task Of showing
by the figures that without anti-rent, John Young
would have been governor Of this State. The Pa
trot had better leave such matters alone they are
too kno,ty for its tender powers. On tho figures OF

TO snalyze our New York politics. asat present
pllea,ed. Il Is entirely al Little boats should keep
IN shore. Every intelligent man, Of either party in
this State, knows that but for sntiren,ism hewbigs
could not have carried the State and except reckless
partisans no one here pretends to dispute it. The
turns from hs aDti-rent district (already published
IN the "union, ~ showing change, since 1874, of

candidate the anli-rent ticket and no other, has
been elected by mHjorides varying from TO 5000

answer the purposes Of the Baltimore Patriot" to
deny it for the purpose of finding in the tariff, the
Mexican war, or some other measure Of the admin

but we, on the spot who understand the matter,
know better. A sentence in the "Albany Atlas"
(ied,) Of last evening" up the real value ofihe
result with entire truth and terseness:
IAN election which under the presence and inau-
ence Of third party has resulted IN the choice, by
equally strong majorites Of federal governor, and
democratic Lieutenant governor, decides nothing
except the power OF that third party
The "courrier des Flats Unis" infers that change
in the Mexican tactics has loog been contemplated
and will speedily be put in practice. The grounds
on which IL bases this opinion appear to bs--hrst,
an alusion by General Salas, in bis late proelsma-
lion, to the protraetsd and successful resistance OF
the SPaniards to the Frsneh--secondly, an article
in the "Republicano," OF few days aaer, in which
the adoption Of the guerilla mode Of warfare is
strongly urged as the only leh for the re-
public-and, thirdly, the fact that Santa Anna has
been some time al San Luis de Potosi, IN
state Of apparent inactivity. These seem slight
premises for the inferenees drawn, especially when
they arest least the last s-suseeptibe Of the ex-
PLANTATION that all regular Mexican operations arc
suspended until the assembling Ofthe Mexican Con-

"A more base ard unpnneipled fraud than that

history OF political parties Ia any country; aud Il Ia
not at all surprising that the chief actors IN H. should

singular circumstance has markn the recent
sittings of the French Chambers Of Deputies. A
member (for Lille, l belieye,) wa -'ar long de-
bale, unseated for having pedg, hims,lf to his
constituents. The Premier, M. Guizot, took q
prominent part in the discussion against the ex-
deputy; and his speech is an admirable specimen OF
fine drawn sophism. His argument hinged mainly
on this that the Chamber essentially delibera-
tive body, not representative one. '.''

tang the example of older settlements, tried their
best to throw the election into the hands of their

The stories in the federal papers about error in
the returns Of the election of Mr.. Jackson from the
