On Saturday last, a bill was introduced in both branches of the Legislature to re peal the Electoral Law, and to revive the district system; and as a striking evidence of the feeling of that body on the subject, those bills were rejected on the first loading, a circumstance unusual except in cases of great excite ment. No measure could have been laid before the Legislature calculated with more certainty to "test the strength of parties." While the friends of the Adminis tration flatter themselves with the hope of securing a small portion of the votes of this State, should the district system be revived, the Jacksonians are confident of the most complete success under the p ectoral law. un tne l(2iew .T.,oi,.. ..... .
