M. M GQNNELL, Cbesnut street, No. 143. In publishing the number of votes given in the Legiflaturc of New-Jersey, for Electors of President and Vice-Presi dent, we erroneously stated that 30 were given for Richard Stockton, Elq. of Somerfet —that gentleman had 36. We observe in the very respectable paper, publifhedby Mr. Scull, at Pitts burgh, an elaborate and elegant extrag large hairy wild man, caught 400 miles from the Cape of Good Hope, brought over in the Rambler, South- Sea-whaler —He is of aftonilhing mus cular strength, a specimen of which had nearly proved fatal to one of the custom house officers, who inadvertantly went too near him ; lie seized hold of the niah, twirled him about two or three times with the greater! velocity, and then threw him over the fide. Luckily the man escaped with a horrid fright and found ducking. "f a feart The Election in Virginia for Elect-, ors of President and Vicc-Prefident,- will take place this day, throughout that ilate. [lna coiAiunication from a politician of distinguished rank abroad, it was fug- J gefled that many points of resemblance could be found betSveen the characters of Buonaparte and Hannibal, as the latter is described by the historian, Livy. On consulting that author, the following translation was made. The claflical read er who wiihes to be feafted with Latin luxury, Will turn to the fourth section \ ' of the twenty-firft book of Livy, in the Elzevir edition. The. passages in ques tion begins " Ali/fus /lumbal in His paniam primoJiatim adver.tu omnein exer citum in fe converl 'lt."J No sooner had Hannibal arrived up on his million to Spain, than the whole [ army became attached to him—The veteran soldiers believed that Amilcar himfelf was resuscitated. They beheld the fame vigor of countenance, the fame fire in his eye ; the very lines and fea tures of his face. He shortly fupercedes by his own merit the necefiity of a re commendation from the love they bore for his father. Never was the sam ability discovered in one person for a di versity of pursuits : he was fitted alike j for obedience and command ; so that it was difficult to discern, to wh'ich he he was most dear, the commander or the army. Asdrubal would have fele£ted no one sooner, for the execution of any bold or arduous enterprize ; nor was the confidence or the courage of the soldi ers greater under any other chieftain. In " enterprizes of great pith and mo -1 mtjnt," he mingled much audacity with much caution. His body was as inca pable of being fatigued by labor, as his mind of being overcome by it. Of heat and of cold he was equally prrtient. His appetite was latisfied with what is neces sary for fuftenar.ee, instead of luxuries. His waking and sleeping hours knew no discrimination of time into day and night—what portion not devoted to aftive labors, was given to repose; not indeed on beds of down, nor in the silence of retirement. Many have often seen him, covered with a soldier's cloak, lying on the bare ground among the guards and soldiers' ports. His attire did not excell that of his equals in rank ; in arms and equipage he furpaf *ed them. He was alike pre-eminent in the ranks of infantry as in the fqua ilrons of cavalry—foremoft in advancing to the field of battle, and lail to leave-it when the battle was over. ZMi. a,. So many manly virtues were counter balanced by a correspondent number of flagitious vices. He was a monster of eruelty; his perfidy worse than Punic ; actuated by no regard to truth or sanc tity—" the fear of God was not in him," nor had he any respect for his oath, or his re)igion. Thus endowed with virtues and vices, he served three years under the commander Afdrubal. MASSACHUSETTS ELECTION. Votes in tie fourth Western District. Upham. Lincoln. Scat.
