BOSTON, Nov. 8. THE ELECTION. If the citizens of this Commonwealth could be influenced by the fallhoods of a certain paper, it might be necefiary to de clare to them, that the persons who voted for Mr. Ames, as Federal Representative, ever have been and now are felicitous te have a scrutiny of the voters on every e leflion—as they are confident that Nine teen out of Twenty of the Merchants, in dependant Mechanics, and proi'effional gentlemen, would be found the fupporteis of Ames, and the Peace and Happiness of their country. TIT fir TAT. It is said in a certaiupaper,that" tbe number of legal voters in this t&ivh w but iii the eledion ct Governor, &c. on the firft Monday «f April last, the number ot votts in tlis town was 2301 Cqjife quently if that statement is. true, the £re sent Governor & Lt. Governor of this Com monwealth, iiave been illegally chosen ! But not one word of illegal voting .was liffJtd in Awil iaft. The voters at the e ledbon for Gov. Adams were 1400 —thole f-jrDr. Jar?is only 1182! If Dr. J had ait the leg al voters, from whom .did Mi. Adams receive the fiirplus ? But the aller tion is too contemptible to merit fenous notice ! Before the elefliori, the Jacobin writers were railing aga-nft the I'ederaliftsj as being advocates for a fcfutiny oi votes ; and calling on the citizens to set their faces against it—and had the eieition gone in th'ir favor, we ihould, have heard nothing from them but exultations and cohgratula tiofrs to their brother Jacobin>. 'he grumbling fmce, may therefore be fairly imputed to chagrin,and difappoiiitment. PLAIN. ARGUMENT. In the Chronicle of Thursday it is said, that " as a proof that persons not belong ing.to. the town voted in the* late Election, it is only necefiary to obterve that the num ber of rateable poles Ironi 16 yca;*s old and upwards, is 3632. Upen the molt moderate calculation, we mav suppose there is under 21 years, 150 . The whole number of legal voters is therefore 2132, and 28ti votes were given in. Cnnfe quently, there were 681 voters on this oc casion, more than was Constitutionally qualified.." The following fails will (hew, that this conclufipn is erroneous, and that the ni/m ---ber of rateable polls in the town is esti mated much too low. By the census ta ken in the year 1790, there were found to be in Boston dwelling houses and 18038 inhabitants, which are, upon an average, seven persons ahd fix tenths to a house. By an a&ual enumeration made a few months ago, the number Of tke hous es was found to have increased to 2500. — Consequently, if the fame proportion holds the number of inhabitants mull now be 19000. In 1799, 'here was 4325 white males of 16 years old and upwards—con sequently their number must now be 455.;. By accurate bills of mortality, and other means, i isdemonilrated, that the num ber of persons between 1 6 and 21, is about one eleventh of the whole number of inhabitants in Maflachufttts. There are then in Boston 1727 persons between 16 & 21'; of whom not more than 863 can be males. Thfie deduced from 4555, leave 3692 males above 21.. The voters at the late election were 2811. There remain therefore B§i for persons not qualified to vote and for those who did not chufe to ex - ercifc their right. No account is made of the blacks In this calculation ; tut as their •number is small, probably not more thah 860 of evsyy age and sex, they would not if in:roduccd, materially affe<£t the con clusion. FIRST MIDDLE DISTRICT The result has b-ren in the towns of Boston, Roxbury, Dorchester, Newton Dedham, Needham, Wefton, Eaft-fud bury, Brooklyn, Sherburne, Hollifton, Hopkinton, Natick, Sharon, and Med way, the towns which compose the dift ri£t, as follows : For Mr. AMES. For Dr. JARVIS 2183 1664 A majority of 5 19 in favour of Mr. Ames—who is elected. Mi. Ames had large majorities in the towns of Boston, Newton, Dedham, Neidham Weftqn, Eaft-Sudbury, Sherburne and Sharon, and a majority of '74 votes in the county towns. IN THE SECOND MIDDLE district: Mr Dexter has as yet a small ma jorityof the votes. We have not heard from ail the towns; but from what we can colleA from hearsay evidence, we imagine that Mr. Dexter will lack a few votes ff a majority in the firft but from the federalilin of several of the characters voted for, there cannot re main a doubt of his succeeding at the second choice. He now has some hun dred votes more than any other Candi date. We hope however, a choice will now be made. In third Diitrift Mr. Goodhue, is unquestionably chosen ; although Dr. Holton has a number of votes. They are both fiim friends to the Peace and Happ'tnefs of their country. In the fourth Middle Dillrift no choice isexpedied the firft trial—Messrs. Brad bury, Bartlett and Smith, of Newbury" poit, each have a number of votes, In theJlrJl Southern Diftrift, Nathan iel Freeman, Jun a firm Federalist.— And in the third southern Diftrift, the Rev. Mr. Reed, it is expected, are cho sen. The best friends of our National Government, do not regret the choice of Mr. Reed. In the other Southern Diftrift, the contest is between Gen. Cobb and Mr. Leonard. Onr accounts from thence are not fufficiently accurate to form an opinion on. Both firm Federalists. In the Western Diftqfts it is expect ed, MelTrs. Sedgwick, S. Lyman, and Gen. Shepard, will be elected—although the competitor of the so rmer, who is Gen. Sltinner, a worthy man, and good federalift—and the latter, who is Mr. W. Lyman, will have many votes. d we h East' From the Eastward iv. 4 rately learnt —Thehon. Mr. Wells, v York, is likely to succeed in that Coun try.—The choice in the others is pieca rious. NEW-YORK, Not. The flat e of Europe, at the tlate of our lajl accounts -was nearly as follows. The French armies on the north were pursuing their vi&ories. The Duke of York was cotiipeUcd to cross the Maefe, and leave Breda and Bergtn-opZoom to be defended by their garrisons. By j this retreat of the English and Dutch troops, those fortreffes are left without any hope of external iuccor. The French have done there as they did on their own frontiers—they have palled by the strong places to reduce which would take time End delay theirprogrefs, and Breda and Bergen-op-Zoom, thus left in the midil ot the. enemy's con quells, mull follow the fate of Valenci ennes and Coude*. 1 his plan of leav ing Itrong holc.s behind an army is not often hazarded ; and never can be fafe, except when an army is greatly superior to its-foes. One ©f the largerf divifions.of the French army is near Maeftricut, a strongly fortified town, the taking of ivhich will open a pafTage for the French :o the Rhine. Should the French fuc :eed in cutting off all communication ieeween the Dukeof York and the Auf rian Cordon on the Maefe, the Duke nuft retire to Amsterdam, and take hipping for fafety. The French now conquer by terror. The strongest garrisons surrender with mt r.efiftance to prevent the danger of a general maflacre, which the French hreaten in cafe of opposition. Already has news arrived that Bre d ; and Bergen-op Zoom, Rotterdam nd Amsterdam will doubtless soon sol !IW- On the Ealt and .South, althougl iff French c p>. 7 _.s, yet their armies arc vidton ous in Spain and Italy. The report of the retaking of Font arabin, refts-on flight evidenceand if true, later reports by the Coivettc ar rived at Baltimore, llate thaf the French have regained their advantages in that quarter. The union of Geneya with the French Republic, is an event of consequence ; not on account of any great acceflion of strength to France, but because it marks the progress of the general spirit of Revolution in Europe. In this latter view, the Infurreftion in South Pruflia is an event of great Magnitude. As a diversion in favor of the Poles, it is at this critical moment, highly important ; but as a proof of a spirit of revolt, in the heart of Europe, againllthe present Gothic eltablifhments, it is to be conhdered as highly interelt ing to all Europe. Reports mention adifpofition inßafle, in Switzerland to throw of .the fetters of aristocracy. Whether true or not, the late proclamation of the Avoyer of Bern is a proof, that the spirit of regenerati on is spreading among the Cantons, and excite 6 the apprehenfiojis of the present government. In the midst of these great events, the energy of freedom begins to be dis played in difcoveries-and improvements in feience and mechanics. We have puliliflied the discovery made in France of extracting fixed alkali from the Chefmit. The telegraphs an instrument for conveying intelligence from play to place in a (hort time, is an astonishing improvement. News is now sent 2 0 miles in two or three hours, and from Pans to Lille and answered, two or three times in a day. England, the ft length andfinews of the confederacy against France, makes a most obstinate refinance. She is court ing the continaance nf the war at her : but it is ol>vious that the as- Rfairs of Europe are becoming so despe rate, that no great combinations can be formed against any po,wer, which can be durable. * " They must soon crumble to pieces Emperors and Kings grow jealous of their fubje£h ; and the necessity of quel ling domestic troubles will disconcert all powerful operations abroad.—Even G. Britain is in a critical itate, although, her insular situation, & the combination of her powerful landed and mercantile interells may futtain the tiering fabric of her government, >*f!erti»an moll of her continental neighbors* On the vthole we hesitate riot to fay, that from prelent anri pad events, we are led to believe, that the Revolution of Europe is but jult commenced** and that nothing Ihort of the Ruflian and Turkifti Empires will reftrui n «, Dm . grels. r ,u - Theodore Sedgwick Esq. is re-de£\e d A S w' ht firft WeftLr:l dift net in Maflachufetts It is feid that Gen.
