ire, in consequence of some irregularity of the votes
in one or more towns, there was no choice by the
people, and the vacancy was filled by ballot of the
two Hnjses. -
We have not accurately ascertained the majority
in the H vise, on the several ballotiungs for officers ;
but unhi/taml generally, that it was between 30

UNANIMITY.
Two events have occured id the present session
of the Legislature which we doubt not will diffuse
pleasure turoughout the Commonwealth.—On two
subjects both H Rises have been unanimous ; or
nearly so. it was wanting for one of the parties
which nearly divide the State, to exhibit the mag
-1 )mini,us policy, of relinquf riling political aad par
ty feelings, on important questions and elections
not political.— Ind the majority were the first to set
the example.—du the choice of Major-General of
the third division,,two Brigadiers General present
ed themselves as candates ; and though several
political considerations urged the preference of Gen.
Coolidge ; yet, a regard for,the regular progres
sion of senior rank ; —o desire to promote the har
-111 any of the third division ; and an anxiety to avoid
any measure that might tend to lessen its zeal, ar
dor and excellent discipline, prevailed ; and Gen.
Varnum, of 226 votes in the House, had 217—and
in the Senate, we believe, was unanimously chosen.
The other nine votes in the House, were for the
Hon. Mr. Bigelow, who holds the rank of Major
in the division ; and who actually declined being
considered a candidate, and had his name erased
from the nomination list, previous to the choice.
T is 11 enmity is highly honorable to Gen. Var-
NUM. The other case, was the UNANIMOUS
rejection of the alteration of the Constitution of the
Uinted States proposed by Kentucky, and adopted by
Pennsylvania, for mangling the Judiciary of the U
nited States. In the rejection of this proposition,
the Hon. Mr. Bacon took the lead in the Senate ;
and Messrs. Morton and Storer, in the bouse.
—This unanimity is highly honorable to Masses
chaseets. [Boston fiaft.

to abstain from all violation of the rights of others.
, That they have been insulted, threatened, anebtheir
lives endangered, when neitherguilty of any breach
lof law or even charged with any. That when claim
j ing ard wishing to usejhe constitutional right; which
j all their neighbours enjoy of meeting to worship, in
their own way, they have been greatly disturbed,

, opposition to all such proceedings, and earnestly
request all the lovers of heace and good order to ex
ert themselves to promote these desirable salutary
objects, and utterly to discountenance, prevent and
Ibring to punishment such violation of right tending
I to the misery or dissolution of civil society.—And
