BOSTON ELECTION.
(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
BOSTON, LINCOLNSIIIRE.—The election of Me. of
took place here this day (Wednesday, Nov. 9), and
W. H. Adams, Esq., the first Tory who entered the
Council, four years ago, was re-elected Mayor for the ..
year ensuing. What a reflection is it upon the great
Liberal party in this town that, in four years, they
have permitted the Tories in the Town Council•to •
increase in numbers from 1 to 19 ! Yet such is the
fact. It is, however, only justice to say, that M •
Adams is by very far the best man in the Council--
and the remaining Liberals acted very wisely by con f
curring in his' re-appointment. He is possessed
considerable legal knowledge, and has executed his •
magisterial duties with the most commendable iniPar
ri;
tiality and energy. If the Corporation Reform Billy
has done nothing else for us, it has given us ave
e
able Tory instead of the bigoted imbeciles who wer
produced by the old self-elective system. Severa•
l
apposite remarks were made on this point by Mr.
F. Barker, a newly-elected Liberal, who spoke in •
terms of well-deserved commendation of the present
Mayor.
