The -Pennsvlvania" In- fqiiiter, :of the 1st instant, commences an article, upon "the Presidency" in the- foP loving manner, viz: ; .We rejoice at the results of ther re cent elections in . Pennsylvania and New: Jersey, on one account ; had either of the atts named gone against he ad mini s ttatipa, no matter by how small a 'majori ty, Van Buren would have been withdrawn from the contestwould not havebeen a candidateorthe Presidency; some stronger candidate would have been brought into the field, and the present dynasty mig ht possibly have been perpetuated." Is-not this veryomfortingl The fiank editor, then goes to a discussion of the probable; Jesuit of the next Presidential e lection between Mr. Van Buren and any ' available candidate" whom the Bank can induce to run against him, and sums Up the matter in the following table, viz . Van Buren, Anti-Van Buren. New Hampshire, - 7 0 14 4 8 0 0 0 3 8 23 15 11 15 21 5 9 5 0 7 0 0 4 d 4 156 132 Massachusetts, - 0 Rhode Island, - - 0 Connecticut, : - 0 New York, - - - 42 Pennsylvania, - - 30 New Jersey. - - - 8 Delaware, - - - - 0 Maryland, - - - - 2 Virginia, - - - - 0 North Carolina, 0 South Carolina, - - 0 Kentucky, - - -. 0 Ohio, - - - - - 0 Louisiana, - - - 0 Indiana, - - - - 0 Illinois, - - . o Georgia, - .... n Vermont, t- - - 0 Tennessee, - - - 15" Alabama, - - - 7 Mississippi, - - . n Maine, , - - 10 Missouri, . - q 132 v Anti-Jackson maioritv. - -. 24 If the object of this writer be to' weaken Mr. Van Biiren bv showing that he can not be elected should he be the candidate of the Republican party, we apprehend this estimate will produce a contrary effect. Let the Bank pull offits maskand tell the People who Mr, Anti- Van Buren is. and our word for it this very table will show that the Republican party can infallibly beat him with either Mr. Van Buren. Col. Johnson, Mr. Rives. Col. Benton, Mr. White, or any other respectable Anti-Bank man, nearly two to one. It will be perceived that the Bank nuts down Rhode Island, Connecticut, 8 in Ma- rym.iu, V irginia, rorin Carolina, UOio, Louisiana, Indiana. Illinois. Vermont. Mississippf. and Missouri, for Mr. Abti Van Buren, and yet beats Mr. Van Buren only twenty-four votes. There is not one of those States, which, to say the least, Mr. Van B uren has not as good a chance to carry as any Available candidate!' whom the Bank can start. -Yet, it requires but a change of thirteen vote's according to this table, to reverse the majority and elect Mr. van hJuren. There are .more than tyj3njty chaQcgg to one, that max thnn thirteen of these votes would in 'such a contest be for Mr. Van Buren. If he were to get either of the three States, Virgiaia, North Carolina, or Ohio, it is done. If he were to get Connecticut and Maryland. or Connecticut and Louisiana, Indiana, IP linois, Vermont, Mississippi, or Missouri it is done. So, if he were to e-et Indiana and Rhode Island. Maryland. Louisiana. Ill inois, Vermont, Mississippi, or Missouri. So, if he were to get Rhode Island, Con necticut ana Vermont- Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Maryland ; Rhode Island Connecticut, and Louisiana, or Illinois, or Mississippi, or Missouri. So, by. getting not more than one, two, or three of the twelve States nan.ed, perhaps fifty combi nations may be shown in which the ma jority would be reversed. Indeed, there are no three out of the twelve, a change of wnose vote would not defeat Mr. A$ih-Van Buren," arid only one combinatiori can be made out of any three of the twelve which would not 'elect Mr. Vatt Buren, and that would produce atie. Thistahie is, in fact, an incautious con cession on the part pi. the . Bank, inat the battle of the democracy for the next. Presi dential election, is already fought arid won. It considers'Mn Van Buren weaker than oiher, republican candidates who might be started, and yet concedes enough to show. that he cn, beat Mr. Anti- Van"Buren. whoever he may be. Such, on examining tne taDie, win De the conclusion of every man who &nows any thing of the present political character ot the several states. The Bnk is evidently in market, hunt f jng for a bew candidate. Its old cham I 1IT.1 . -M e 1 I t pions Webster, Clay, Calhoun Judge McLean, are used upx t, anu even and to -srie it any chance for success, it tpnst make a i(iew purchase.

Ed. Standard. 1 THE NEXT LEGISLATURE. We last week gave a paragraph from the Dan ville (Va.) Reporter, in vhich a majority in our Legislature ot twenty against the Administra tion, was claimed on the authority of some one who stated he had his information from Gov. Swaidt Not believing the Governor had an. thorijted the publication of any such estimate, for we then felt, as we now feel, well .assured flf a most decided majority of Jackson members in the next Legislature, we took the liberty to ques tion the Reporter's information. The Raleigh Register of Trfesday , in publishing the paragraph fipem the Reporter, with our strictures thereon, adds the following remarks : '- . " The first of the foregoing- paragraphs. appeared a short time since in the .Dan ville Reporter the second, as ah Editorial article in the North Carolina Standard of Friday last. Both profess to give the substance of a remark, made by the Gov ernor to some friend, whether in socinl or confidential intercourse is ,not stated, nor is it material. Without enquiring in to the propriety of introducing the name of any individual into the- columns of a newspaper, under such circumstances, we are authorited to say that both statements are alike founded in mistake. The Gov ernor has repeatedly expressed the opin ion, that a majority of the people, and of the General Assembly of this State were opposed to the election of Mr, Van Bu ren to the Presidency, and to th0 recent mei,sures of the Administration with re lation to tbe Currency." The Legislature of Georgia convened at Mil ledgeville on the 3d instant. For President of the Senate, Jacob Wood, Unionist received 52 votes, Thomas Mitchell, NuHifief, 30 -majority for Union22-Fr Speaker of the lower House, TE53.-asswjE,-iimsr, "eeewearri votes ; George H.

We learn, trom the Columbus Monitor, that the Legislature of this State is composed of 18 democratic and 18 bank-wig members in the Senate; 30 democratic and 42 wig members in the House of Representatives , Bank-wig majori ty 12 on joint ballot. So that the bankites. have out-manoeuvred ns in Ohio. But as we have carried the election for Governor, by a majority of three or four thousand, we have no doubt that State is for the Administration, and will at the next Presidential election, prove her attachment to the Republican party ; Cholera.
