Time has confirmed our pre dilections, and convinced us of the justice of an housst and independent preference.— During this discussion, so interesting to the American people, whilst we have invariably kent in view the character of n commercial print, we have never shrunk from the de claration of our opinion. But it haa been our aim to maintain a character of modera tion and justice, dictated equally by a re aped for the judicious portion of our rea ders, and our own sentiments of propriety and decency. As we have never descend ed to the slough of scurrility, or indulged in Wilful misrepresentation, we are not reduc ed to the humiliation of now retracting arhst we have advanced, or of quietly sub- Diittingto a state of things, which, hud we believed what many of our contemporaries have advanced, could not be done without the abandonment of our principles or the sacrifice of the cause of the Repub lic. From the commencement of this contest, which, unfortunately for our cha- »ader us a nation, has been marked by so peat a share of disgraceful vituperation, it was evident that but one of the distinguish ed individuals before the nation could suc ceed ; and that the country alone would be the sufferer, if the others were destroyed.

The Secretary of tho Navy has instruct ed Commodore Hull, to send one of his vessels to the Mulgrave Islands, to endeav our to find those who were concerned in the mutiny on board the ship Globe. The Secretary of the Navy has recom mended tho construction of two Dry Docks —one to ho located at Charlestown, Mas and the other at Gosport, Va. The prob able expense of the construction of both is estimated at about $700,000. The Ohio Legislature arc now engaged in projecting a grand system of internal im provements. The surveys of Toutes, and estimate of expense have been respectively made for a canal to connect the waters of the Ohio river and Lake Erie. The ex pense of cutting the canal is estimated at about three millions of dollars ; the length of the route somewhat over 300 miles, in cluding the feeders. hored to his original determination, which ho did not abandon till the very last moment, Mr. Adams would have had but 12 voteR.— At the second ballot he would have lost Ma ryland, and his votes would thereby have been reduced to 11, and 1 am firmly convin ced that he never could have been elected except by the aid of the Crawford States, which I do not think he could have obtain ed.

To these charactcrestics of the day, wc add, the orderly and respect ful conduct of the galleries ; for, though there were sounds heard from the galleries, they were discountenanced by ninety-nine out of a hundred of those who filled them ; and when tho order was very properly giv en to clear the galleries, in consequence of t he interruption to the proceedings of tho House, the intense anxiety to witness the completion of the proceedings did not occa sion a moment’s hesitation, the order being promptly obeyed. “ Congress* had been likened, by political writers, in its function of electing a Presi dent, to a Polish Diet. But, in reality, no thing was ever Iosb like any other thing.— As tar as our observation extended, there was manifest among the Members nothing but urbanity and correct deportment, with a cast of gravity arising from a properson.se of the importance of the dut y in the dis charge of which they were engaged. There was neither violence nor trick in the pro ceeding. There was as little disguise for, olt hough the voting was altogether by ballot, we do not believe that the vote of a single member from any State is unknown. After what, has passed, wc shall never again feel the apprehension which when at a dis tance, the alternative of an election by the House of Representative* filled not only our minds, hut those of a large portion of the American People. Nor have we been able to detect the exercise of any undue in fluence out of doors upon this election. We do not believe there was any such.

It was known that Mr. Adams would receive the votes of Maine, Ncw-Hampshire, Massa chusetts, Vermont, Rhode-l.-lund, Connec ticut, Kentucky, Ohio and Illinois, making nine states. But the votesof Missouri, Lou isiaua, Maryland and New-York were to tlie lost considered doubtful.

The evening of Wednes day happened to be one on which the Pres ident’s mansion is open to his fripnds. As may well be supposed, an unusual crowd ftl led the spacious apartments. Mr. Adams, tho President, elect, was there, and so was Gen. Jackson. Never was the usual court sey of Gen. Jackson more conspicuous, or more honorable to himself. There was laudable magnanimity in the manner in which he saluted Mr. Adams, and congrat ulated him <»n the event which had that day taken place. If Mr. Crawford had been present, we have no doubt he would have done the same. A kindrid spirit pervaded the whole scene.
