' ' . iT"pte Freemen of JSTorth'CaroKna A number of the citizens of Cabarrus coun ty, having met atl Concord,' with a.viewcf consulting on tbe most practicable method of formmfja tic tret, wjtn me express new ot promoting the election of JOHN Q. ADAMS to the Presidency of the United 'States be lieving, as we do, that the prosntrity and hap piness of the People of these United States nav, not onJy that, but the very existence of our gnrernment,'in its present happy form, depends in a givat degree on the moral cha racter of our rulers we cannot refrain from expressing the deep solicitude we feel in the passing scene.' "We believe the interest of i - J. Q. Adamais daily increasing, in this sec tion of the State ; and we , hope, that at the ' dav of election, .if a ticket can be formed, he will hate a decided majority over either of the other candidates. ' We believe. further, that in point of talents, experience, and mor al character, he stands first" on the list and that his claims to the Presidency are supe rior to those of anyother.- We therefore in vite those of ' our jfellpvr-citite'ns throusrhout .the state, who are friendly to the election of John 4Q; Adams President, and John .C. Calhouu asVice President, to nominate an Elector in tlrcir respective districts -andjfor-vr ril the names of their Electors to Oenj. S.

" (a paper devotedto the interest of Mr. Adahts) declared;- that the friends of Mr. Adams Would suffer their right arm3 to wither, sooner than vote for Andrew Jackson.' , J . The Editor of " the Salisbury, paper expresses great regret thatthis division should take place, and broadly? 5nti- matesTthat it must have been .the work f.the friends of AIr.CrawfonI, though they have never, that we" haVQ4heard of seen, sajd a word on thcsubject.1 Nor should we nrtw" havc nientifmeii-J had we not met witirUhe!. above notice' pf hc Cabarrus meeting.

' ' , - ' Louisiana.-A letter from Opelou sas, Loit contained in the Louisiana Ailvertiserof July J 6th speaking of the result" of the State Election, says, " I repeat that Gen.
