The Address of the members of congress friendly to the administration, (for so un- doubtedly this paper is to be considered will be read, we are'sure, with interest and satisfaction, by all friends to the cause.-- The view it takes of the probable result of the next election, IS, in our judgment con- scientiously just and true '; and nothing is wanting to make this result certain, but en- ergy, concert, and vigilance, on the part of those who are not yet ripe for the rule of ignorance and despotic violence.-[N.

 TO THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES.

 One part of the policy of those who strive, by whatever means, to prevent the reelection of the present. chief magistrate of the United States,is to subdue the hope and discourage the efforts of his friends & supporters, by such representations of the state of public feeling, as show his election highly improbable or impossible. They seek to insure victory by raising shout that victory is already won.

 The great extent of the country and the difficulty of accurately knowing, in one part, what sentiments prevail in another & more distant part, afford facility to this mode of practicing imposition on the pub- lie. The people of New Hampshire, for example, are assured that it is no longer matter of doubt, that Ohio and Louisiana will vote for the Opposition candidate, while the citizens of these states are sur- prised, at the same time by hearing it as- serted with confidence belonging to real conviction, that not only New Hampshire, but others also of the New England states have joined the same cause. Whatever of coloring or exaggeraton, or, we regret to add, of unqualified misrepr presentation this course ofpolicy may require, seems hith- erto not to have been found wanting. Not only are slight and doubtfui manifestations of opinion, when favorable, swoln into im- portance, ,and magnifei beyond all just de- gree, on the one hand while, on the oth- CT, the most clear and decisive results of full popular elections, if unfavorable, are made 10 go for nothing; but formal state- ments are, also, put forth, sometimes und- CT the authority of names, such as are wil- ling to be appended to them, which are known not only to be partial, but to be abe solutely untrue, ,bythose who have informa- ton on the subjects on which they relate.

 Notwithstanding the general intelligence of the community, there may be danger, that attempts of this sort, every where made and long continued, will produce more or less of the effect intended, unless season. ably counteracted.

 It has been deemed expedient, there- fore, ,on the eve of the adjournment ofcon- gress, s,that the friends ofthe administration, throughout the whole Union, should be in- formed, from some source, ,or through some channel, in which they have confidence, Whatis the belief enterta;ned there cf the present stafe, and the present tendency 0f public opinion: and ef the probable result of the election.

 is the purpose of this paper to state what ,bat belief is; with some reference to the ground on which it is founded. It proceeds from those who have no motives. which should induce them to mislead or deceive, either themselves or others and as, from obvious causes, this place is the point at which, at the present mOment, the greatest amount of information on the subject is concentrated it has been attempted to consider and compare the various parts of his information atteniiyely and fairly, to judge of the whole correctlysand to lay the
