" Federalism Triumphant."
Ata truly federal meeting held io this town,
yesterday, for the choice of a representative to
Congress, in place of Mr. Gordon, the votes were
OrfoHow:'
Hon. SAMUEL TENNEY, at
GEO. B. UPHAM, Esq. 2
The flame of RepubliCT^frn, which, afew months
ago, seemed expiring on the altar of liberty,
is now rapidly rekindling iu every part ot the
; Union. Deliberate reflection is restoring the
American mind to its native fentiorent. Yet a
few months, and public opinion will place,
wliere they ought to be, those veteran enemies
of our liberties, who of late have cunningly a(-
fumed and concealed themselves under the mask
of federalifm,—The great and opulent States ot
Petinfytvani,, New-York and Maryland at their
late elections, have altogether rejected the pre
tended and falfe federalists, and placed in
their room staunch and tried Republicans. The
capitals of Philadelphia, Baltimore and New.
York will now be represented by the real
friends of |heir country 3 and it is morally cer
tain, that Boston the great capital of New-Eng
land, will next Monday follow the example of
her southern Sifters, by electing the Republican
,Dr. Eustice to represent them in the next
Congress. Had the elections in this State been
postponed only a few months—New-.Hamp
fhire might also have boasted of a Republican
representation.,
TRIUMPHof REPUBLICANISM.
TN the city and county of Philadelphia, the re
publican ticket for federal and state reprefenta-.
tives, was carried by avast majority-in fad,
the friends of republican fm through the union,
are taking aftive measures to choose men of un
equivocal republican Sentiments, both -for federal
and State representatives ; it has almost Shinned
the federal party, and will probably break the
chains of aristocracy, which were forging by the
advocate of d^fpotifm and Strong government.
In Maryland, the republican ticket bkewife
triumphs. A Baltimore paper fays, a handsome
majority of the iriiate legiflattire will be decidedly
republican. The county of Frederick,at their elec
tion iu 1796, gave but x 6 votes for the republican
candidate, but 'have now awakened to the vindi
cation of their rights and in the fopport of their
own independence. The ideal impression of
wealth and of party, could not operate' against
republican integrity. Th: result of the contest
was the republican candidate had 16(7 votes in-
Read of the Small number of 16, in 1796—»fa, a
