Rut as the time has nowapproached, and the elections for state tinkers, in most rf the states, have really taken place, and their results; reached us, we feci free to make a j statement on the probable result of the important election which a few days ; more must determine.

trie cvcitis linally known. Tiicic nrc 'JOI Electoral votes, in the whole, and 131 are required to elect. The six Eastern States give 51 electoral votes. All of these have been given up as certain for the Administration, by the warmest Jackson papers, except one vote in Maine, nhd the late election there has removed all doubts as to that one; all, therefore for the Administration,
New York gives 30 votes. Of these,
the Nashville Republican, and other warm and leading Jackson papcrs,c laim but 14; the Administration friends alNew Jersey gives C votes, by general ticket. Tho state has been claimed t by both parties: but the recent success . , of the Administration ticket for state officers, by a very large majority, has settled the question there. Delaware gives 3 votes, by the Legislature. The late election gave the Administration two to one in that body, and has, therefore, secured it the whole votes of the state. Maryland givr. s 11 votes, by districts. The question wns pretty fairly tried, as is admitted by all panics, at the late election, and resulted in giving 8 votes certain, for the Administration, and two more are left at about a tic. Ohio gives 1C votes, by general ticket. The question has been fairly tried there, in the election which is just over, and resulted in a majority in both houses for the Administration; and Mr. Trimble received a majoiitjr of from o to C000 votes, over his Jackson compettiter, for governor. Kentucky gives 14 votes, br general ticket. The parties wrc organized, and the question faiily made, at the late election there, in which Metcalfe succeeded, by a consid. rablc maj irily over Carry, notwithstanding some hundred more votes were given in some counties along the Tennessee line, than there were pedis in Ibcm. The result of Ohio, ha do produrcd a favorable fleet upon the Administration, in Kentucky. Louisiana has not been doubted since the stale election there, and gives live votes. r.ECAITri EATiON.

From tins calculation, which we think must be admitted by every candid man, to be a fair and reasonable one, John Q. Adams will be re-cl ?ctcd pres ident, and Richard Rush elected vicepresident of the United Stales, to a reasonable a trnral certainty. Two or three more votes m N. York; two more inMirylind; three in Missouri; three jn Illinois; five in Indiana, and 10 in North Carolina, are claimed by both sides, and arc quite as likely to go for the Administration, as for Jackscn.

TARIFF. Fact vs. Theory. Many people think that the imposition of high duties upon foreign productions increases the price to the American purchaser and consumei. 1 tie best answer to this. is. a comparison of the prices of articles before and since the tariff. JVegro cloths in lC24,sold at G7 to 100 cents per yard; equally good can now tc had at 50 cents. Coarse. cott7is, in 1815 1G, sold for 25 cents per yard; the same quality now sells at from 8 lo 10 cents. Muscoi-ada Sugar, in 1819, sold at 16 to 18 cents per pound; in 1828, at 8 and 9 cents. CoTec, in 1822, was 23 cents per lb. it is now 1 5 cents. CutXails, in 1825, sold for 1C cents a pound they now sell at 7 cents. Cotton Bagging, in 1 822, was CO cents per yard; it now Fells at23 cents! These are some of the practical ef fects of the tarifli.

Iu 1827, after it had been ascertained that in tact Mr. Adams was in favour ofa tariff. Gen. Jackson carried the city by several thousand votes; and the noisy Jackson men in the city, unite with the south ernt in their oppositioo to the tariff.
