—T.te course of policy to be adopted by, the,new I
Adrainistration, is gra:lually doveloping , itself in
the leading papers of the party, which generally
erteak by authority, They all seem to nree that
the Tariff mubt.go by the board, and-a re
venue tsriTsubstituted in its place—that is, a '2.0
per cent; Tariff. The Fuh-Treasury is ti; be re-e
-s:nee-1; Texas is to
_be annexed, and plavery per
petuated in the country. The distribution of.
the -Land Fund among the States" is, declared to
be "an obsolete idea."
The following ore some of the extracts alluded
ta. The Now Y,irk. Plebeian says: . .

PabscaiPxiis..--Year after year have the
Whig Employers in this region been most shame
fnlly :abused and villifled by a few idle, loafing
locofoco demagogues--charging them with giving
their men' " meat,"—" shamefully op
pressing_ them,"and proscribing, for opinion's
sake.' These charges are known to be notorious
ly false; by those who make them—but for ,the
sake of making some political capital out of it,
scoundrel like, they do not hesitate in slandeting
our most upright and:honest citizens. To Such
an extent has this been carried during the teeent
campaign, and so completely has it embittered the
feelings of our business !community, that', we
should not be surprised, that if, in reducing .their
collieries to a winter establishment, they would
act upon this principle, and give those the prfer.
once who have defended them from these lietistly
attacks, and adhered firmly to their own and thei r
employer's interests. And if they do, the victims
will perh - aps hare an additional motive for ap
plauding these demagbg,ueir.
Our region is not the only one cursed with: this
class of politicians. The Franklin Repository, in
noticing similar attacks,' in that quarter, remarks
az follows: . .
• .It is false—the Whigs are going to prose ribe
nobody—they only intend to take care of them
relver—to adopt a tariff of escrirrthrerflon foi the
protection of elotnectic indti;try—thtit is toi say,
in renting, their farms or employing laboters,tthey
-will prefer Whigs to Locofocos, for the:very
good and sensible reason that then both the em
ployer and. the. employed will' agree as to ,their
-mutual interest—they will not then present the
foolish attitude of individuals voting against; earth
other when their interest is the same. This, so
for fromdoinginjustice to 1. ! ocofocos, will sOeedi-
Ply work a regulation to their decided advantage—
it will necessarily shift dhem from Whig, to Loco
employers, when surely they will feel mein: at
home, and we shall then hear no more . of e• !villtig
proscription," of turning off laborers because their
principles"! t ! will not allow them to vote the
same way their employers do—because the il*r

The Elections.
NEW Yonx.—The unexpected 'result in this
State dOcided the Presidential election. Mr. Polk
has its electoral votes, with a majority 'of 10,632
against him. The aq g l'egate vote for President
was 485,808, and Mr. Pat's majority is. 4750
less than that of Mr. Wright for Governor, while
the aggregate vote for Governor exceeds that for
Preßident 2252. Mr. Clay had 1249 more than
Mr. Fillmore.. The aggregates for 1844 and 1840
are as follows :
1840
Harrison, 225,915 'Clay,
Van Buren, 212.741 Polk,
Birney, 2,463 Biiney,
Har'n over V 8.1:3,174 Polk over Clay 5,190
Do. over all 10,711 Maj. agairpt
• ! Polk on. the •
,I whole vote, 10,632
The aggregate' vote lia.s increased 44,689, the
Whig vote 6491 the loco 21.847, and the Aholi
thin 13,349. In 1840 Harri4on.had 10.711 ma
jOrity over all others, an i in 1814 Polk is in a
minority of 10.63::'. Hence it is evident that the
anti-Texas abolitiots have played into the
hands of a full blooded loco eo annexationist.
with a degree of inconsistency which finds no
parallel in the annals of itultulons.

ing remarki on the election are from the National
Intelligeneer of• Monday lab •
This gallant State. second'of the-daughters of
the Old Thirteen, and woriliy of her , immediate
parent, the virtuous Old North, has recorded her
sulTrag,e against national dishonor and iiational
_folly. by casting her vote for • 11 evar r and
the Union: against • Pota and Trigs 'with or
without the:Chaim: She has thUs ratified the
patriotic and honorable, but hazardous stand. ta
ken by her high-minded Senators in Congress
against the scheme' to &cite a weak and i fridnillv
neighbor, under the forms of a treaty with a
third party which was to go halves in the:spoil.
. _
In thus.nobly deciding; dm State of Tsnnessce
deserves more than orilina6s respect; for Iperhaps
no other member of the confederacy \vas impelled
by so many or so strong ties towards the 17niost
with 'rexses ass herself. Vet for national honor
and good faith, she reiisted all motives of pm vats
interest. of Mite pride, and even the Wring feel ;
ings, of fraternity which' tiled her to a multitude
,of the earliest and best emigrants .to Texas, oho
