Presidential Elect o?i. -This day the
great the all-important contest commen
ces, which is to decide whether the will
of the people shall be paramount in the
selection of our Chief Magistrate, or
whether that officer shall henceforth be
appointed agreeably to safe precedents.'
Pennsylvania and Ohio are the pioneers
of the election this day they unequi
vocally sanction or disapprove the man
ner in which Mr. Adams came into of
fice, and the means resorted to, to sus
tain him in power. The recent elections
in Pennsylvania have removed all doubts
respecting her vote; but six of her pre
sent Congressional delegation are friend
ly to the Administration, and all these
have received permission to stay at home.
Ohio has been generally conceded to the
Administration; the recent elections in
that State, however, have encouraged
the friends of Gen. Jackson to entertain
some hopes of obtaining her vote.
On Monday next, the election will be
held in Virginia, New-York and several
other States. A few days will only in
tervene, before this distracting question
will be put at rest.

At a Quarterly Meeting recently held
at Horeb Meeting-house, in the Roa
noke Circuit, seven local preachers
were expelled the Methodist Episcopal
Church, in so far as that Quarterly Meet,
ing had power to do so, without the
sanction of any law of God, or known
rule of the Discipline of said Church
not, however, for immoral conduct; but
for certain efforts on their part to ob
tain, with the consent of the Church, an
extension of representation in the law
making department thereof. One or
more appeals to the Annual Conference
were taken.

astonishing facility. We call the
attention of our Jackson friends
to it, as the most effectual, as well
as constitutional remedy against
the operation of the Tariff; indeed
we recommend it to the patronage
of the public as likely to prove a
very convenient establishment-

the first number of a new paper,
printed at lallahassee, called
"The Floridian." The Floridian
states, that the crops in Middle
Florida have fully realized the
expectations of the planters. Cot

thinks it will ultimately prove be-
neticial to the planters, as it will
direct their attention to a more
lucrative and certain source of
profit, the culture of sugar the
