Asno btate othcer was electea las: car, the best test of the actual state of nrties is the vote on Congressmen. - i the Advertiser, we fiud ihe offiial vote of the severul districts, which ve transfer, with the figurings of that aper, to ouf columns. The table wil! e convenient for future refere nee. The Liberty vote of 1844, for President, was ,632 : of 1845, for Governor, 3,363 : f 1846, fur Congressmen, 2,895, showng a rJiminution of 478 last year. About 50 Liberty voters in Calhoun county br some reason unknown to us, conclued to vote last fall for a pro-slavery Whig. The Liberty voto of Washtelaw was 115 less than in 1844, owing not o adiminution of numbers, but to an uter, and we think, criminal indifference on the part of many of them, who would not atlend the polls, when they mighi ïave dono so without inconvenience. - n the Third District we are informed he Whig candidate used the strojigest personal nnd private eflbrtswith Liberty Tien, and his liberal professions doubtless had an unfavorable effect on ihe Liberty vote.From the Detroit Adverliser.
