The most prominent topics of conversa tion that engrossed Ihc attention ot the community for the last week, were the elections of New York, North Carolina and ()hio. In the two first states the die is east—in the latter the question is still in suspend*.

As we have before remarked, should .Mr.Clay loose OHIO he cannot get to the house—the contest w ill then be be tween Jackson, Adams and Crawford; when three jxiWerfUl parties will contend against each other, with nilich warmth etui obstinacy. Three of the western, and six eastern states are known to be hostile to Jackson, so is New \ork, .Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina, and Georgia; and without expressing an opinion of the Maryland mid New Jer sey representation, we think that there is still much doubt who will be the next .Prcsidcnti We would therefore udvi.se some of the good folks who have late ly been extiltingto practice a little of the Indian policy, “never to huzza tmti'1 out of the hushes."

All our readers doubtless feel an interest in the closing events of a contest which has kept ardent parti/.ansso long in hrenth- k-ss anxiety, ami we therefore subjoin all the particulars, which ohr Gorrespoiidertt at Albany 1ms furnished us, and which may be relied on. “Albany, .Yea. lot/i, 1834—-- Monday J'jrtning. ‘‘ISENTI.SMKNI Yeti have undouhteilly been informed that,on Wednesday Inst, an Electoral ticket was nominated by the Seuale fricndly to Mr> ('rawfortt. .
