Presidential Elections. F r j m the TJtica Daily Gazette.

F r o m Cist's Cincinnat i Advertiser, and Niles" Register, w e gather some' interesting statistics of the number oi electoral votes cast for each President. Originally two persons were voted for—the highest in vote being thereby made President, and the next highest, Vice President. But the difficulty which sprang from the equal vote of Jefferson and Burr effected a change in 1801.

In 1789. T e n States were entitled to 73 votes. Geo . W a s h i n g t o n received 69 which were all the votes cast, as some of the States were not represented in full. John Adams was chosen Vice President

la 1792. Fifteen States were entitled to 135 votes, of which George Washington received 132, all the votes cast, John Adams again Vice President.

In 179S;' Sixteen States were entitled to 138 votes, of which John, Adams received 71, and Thomas Jefferson was chosen Vice Pres­ident.

In 1800. Sixteen States were entitled to 138 votes, of which -Thorna* Jefferson and Aaron Burr received each 73". - -W».£apjce by the people. The House ot Representatives, after ballotting six days, on the 36th ballott elected Thomas Jefferson, President, and Aaron Burr V i c e President.

In 1804. Seventeen States were entitled to 175 votes, of w h i c h T h o m a s Jefferson re­ceived 169. George Clinton V i c e Piesident.

In 1808. Seventeen States and 126 votes. James Madison received 122 votes, and w a s chosen President. Geo . Clinton Vice Presi ­dent. Geo . Clinton had received electoral votes at every election s ince the organization oi the Government,

In 1812. Eighteen States and 218 votes. J a m e s Madison received 128 as President, and Elbridge Gerry 131, as V i c e President.

In 1816. Nineteen States and 221 votes, of which James Monroe received 183. D . D . T o m p k i n s V i c e Pres ident . '

In 1820>. Twenty-four States and 232 votes, J a m e s Monroe received231. D . D . T o m p ­kins V i c e President.

Prom 1804 to 1820, the successful candi­dates had been nominated by a caucus o[ the Democratic party in Congress . S i n c e that t ime (1820) all parties have nominated in na­tional conventions.

In 1824. Twenty-four States and 261 votes. Andrew Jackson received 99 for President, and John Q» Adams 84, as the W h i g candi date. John C. Calhoun, V i c e President, had 138 votes.

In 1828. S a m e States and 221 votes. A. Jackson received 178, a majority over Ad&ma ot 95 electoral votes. J . C . Calhoun V i c e Pres ident

In 1832. Twenty-five States and 288 votes. Jackson received 219, a majority of 170 over Clay. Martin V a n Buren V i c e Pres ident

Great benefit h a v i n g been derived from the, c leans lngs that wrre resorted to on the tormer visitation of the choleia,, and experience hav-

* <ng.naw.ri that preventive measures against cholera are TilBo-proFentive against typhus and other epidemic and endemic diseases , the board of guardians should carry into imme-. diate effect all practical measures of external and internal c leans ing ot dwel l ings i n the ill-conditioned district*.

T h e chief predisposing causes o l every ep­idemic, and especial ly of cholera, are damp, moisture, filth, an imal and vegetable materi a l s i n a state o f decomposition, and in general , whatever produces atmospheric impuri ty; all o f which have the elfrct of lowering the health and vigor of the system, and ol in­creasing the susceptibility to disease, partic­ularly a m o n g the young, the aged, and the fee­ble.

T h e attacks of cholera are unilormly found to be most frequent and virulent in low ly ing districts, on the banks oi rivers, in the neighborhood of seweir mouths, and wherev­er there are large collections of refuse, partic­ularly amidst human dwell ings. In a recent proclamation, issued tor tee protection of the population of the Russian empire, the impor­tant intloe nee of these and similar Causes has been recognizetl, and the practical recommen­dations founded thereon are "to keep the per­son and dwell ing-place c lean, to al low o f no sinks close to the house , to admit of no poul­try or an imal s within the house, to keep ev­ery apartment as airy a s possible by ventila­tion, a n d to prevent crjjwiiirts »!>•»•»»•« mere

Householders of all classes should be warn-ed.that their first means ot safety l ies in the removal o f dung-heapa, and sol id and liquid filth of every description, from about or be­neath their houses and premises. T h o u g h persons long lamiliarilzed to the presence of such refuse may not perceive its offensive-ness, nor beleive in to noxious properties, yet al l who desire to secure themselves from danger should labor tor tha entire removal of filth, and the thorough c leansing of their premises ; which a l so the l a w wfll require of each person for the protection of h is neigh­bors as we l l a s for his o w n safety.

N e x t to the perfect c leansing of the premi­ses, dryness ought to be carefully promoted which will of course require the keeping up oi sufficient fires, particularly in the damp and unhealthy districts, where this means should be resorted lo for the sake ol ventlla-lion a s well as for warmth and dryness.

From Information recently obtained from Russia, i t appears that in s o m e barracks, and other places where large nampers of people are congregated, where these conditions have been attended to in a manner that can be equally practised in private houses , there has been a comparative Immunity from the pre­va i l ing epidemic, exactly a s in this country where in public institutions, though a s yet by no means.perfect in the m e a n s oi ventilation, there has deen almost an entire exemption from epidemics which have ravaged private houses in the very s a m e districts)

some of our readers w h o are prone to specu­late upon the glorious " destiny of the Anglo Saxon race." It i s a matter ot much impor­tance and has, for some years, engaged the attention ol the moat prominent Brili*h states­men.

Whether-the accomplishment of these seem­ingly mutual w i shes i s to be soon or late, v i ­olent or peaceiul, are qupstions which may soon be.determined.

Mr. King, each seemed to be striving to out­do the other in the violence of their assaults, ahd the reckless mendacity of their charges agulnst him." As to any affiliation between the Hunkers, ahd Whigs, it is false as The Al. eoran. T h a t a few H u n k e r s Voted for M r . Squire, the better to ensure the deleat or"Mr. King, is probably true. It so, it was entirely a matter of their own seeking—they had a right so to do, if they chose, and the Republican has no right to complain. But it is also true that a few Hunkers voted tor Mr. King, an preference to Mr. Dodge—and a f e w "Whigs w h o voted for Gen. Taylor , voted for M r . King in preference to Mr. Squire, simply be­cause they believed Mr. King would be true, hereof (tr, on the. Slavery question, and-he had Congressional experience, which Mr. Squire had not . T h e charge of " Coalition" is there­fore, preposterous.

A word witb regard to the " reckless men­dacity" Of the charges against Mr. King .— With the jcojarse of other prints, we have nothing lo do. They are capable of defend­ing themselves, but we made no attack up­on Mr.: King till late in the Campaign.— Now, if our charges against him'were reck­lessly false, the Republican, or Mr. King could easily haWtnet and refuted them. But so far from doing so, they have suffered them to go uncontradicted and unnoticed, except jn one instance—his'vote in favor of the Annexa­tion of Texas.; W e stated the time, and the points on w h i c h h e Voted against the right of petilwn,.zaA they do not ceny them. ' T h e y have had ample opportunity to d o s o - they could; have done, i t before, e lect ion, . ^ h e y have issued two papers s ince , and still .the c h a r g e are not denied.

S o sa id the poet, and it seems that the Harry Hotspurs of South Carolina are growing big with rage,—getting, as the honest Dutchman did, " chock full of wrath and cabbage."— T;here are a few pinks of chivalry lelt in that "uunny " state, whoare determined to " have a'-fight," and most vociferously do they " barb, for it." T h e citizens of the Orangeburgh District, S. C , kindly taking into considera­tion the affairs of the country generally, and the " rights of the South,'" in particular, held a held a meeting on the'6lh ius t , at which they adopted an address, set t ing forth-in dazzling display,- the enormous outrage w h i c h the North contemplates inflicting upon the phi­lanthropists of the South. T h e fol lowing are among their resolutions, which w e pre­

s u m e contain the whole* yejoom of the ad­dress-.

Resotved, T h a t should the "Wilmot Proviso, tn- any s imilar restriction, be applied by Corj-scress to the territories of the United States, South of 36 deg. 30 min. North latitude, w e recommend to our Representative in Con­gress, a s the decided opinion of this portion of his district, to leave his seat in that body and return home.

Resolved, T h a t w e respectfully suggest to both H o u s e s of the Legislature of South Carolina to adopt a similar recommendation as to our Senators in Congress Irom this State.

Resolved^ That upon the return home of-our Senators and Representatives in Congress, the Legislature of South Carol ina should be forthwith assembled, to adopt such measures as the exigency may demand.

We recollect that a lew uneasy curs in South Carolina, took it into their heads to snarl once before, but one word from Gen. Jackson, and another from Daniel Webster, sent them howling to their dens. Daniel
