His opinion, therefore, was, that the peo-s

Iiis opinion was that the trainers Of the

Predensatives of the United STATES. He
believed they were right, and that there
was no danger of their liberties being leo
Tardized bybiennial more than by annual
elections oftheir representatives.
Mr.. B. again contended that it was Of
very littleimrortance whether the election
Of theie representatives was biennial or an.
nual, for in either cafe they were but mere
y corporate body, whole atis were no
farther binding than as the hyperion power

they could make, in which they were con-
lined to limits, was under the controul Of

TRENTON, January s.


BY the return Of votes, our readers will
Preceive, that MeHrs. Mott, Elmer, Con-
dit, Helms and Soutbard, competing the
democratic ticket are elected members of
Congreis by majority of about 500
votes. 1t will be recolleeted, that in our
lait, we fated, from the information we
had received, that the federal ticket would
probably fuccecd by majority of between
1000 and 1900 votes. This alcuiation
was founded upon the ordinary refults of
electors in this fate, ard was fully jufif-
ed by that for members Of the Legislature,
held in o. Ole: laf-but, it has failed -
The numbers of votes given in by the
counties of Eirex and Morris, has not only
exceeded the mott fanguine expectations of
the friends of the democratic ticket, but
out-frips all calculation founded on prece-
dent or reaion, and jufly excites rvondey
when the population of thcfe counties is
compared with that of the large counties OF
Burlington and Hunterdon. This zvoudey.
however, will ceate when we fate, ana
from the mott respectable authority, that
in Morris and Edex, not only girls Of che
age Of eighteen, but even me yyild zvomru,
were actually admitted to vote. In Suf-
iex, alto, we are credibly Informed, tina,
the fame illegal practices took place. Such
being the fate of things the election viii.
probably be diiputed at the next core~efs.
We cannot here forbear to fate, that the
teaeraA5qs have been J@amefalyy megAgent
gtkeiy duy.-They had votes enough II
the fate, good and legal ve'es, to overba-
lance all thole Of their opponents, legal ana
Mtgai.

A BALANCE LOCK,

Says London paper Of the 18th Sep
TENDER, for transferring boats on canals
from one level to another, was tried on
the Dorlet and Somerfet canal, at Mells,
on the 9th infant, and found completely
to aniwer. By this invention the Difficult
ties which have 70 long exiffed, of tranf-
ferring boats on canals without lois of wa
ter, are now fully removed, ard at lefs
expence than any other icheme hitherto
fuggeied, end it was very probable, that
the neceHity of tunnels will be thereby fa-
perceded. The experiment was made on
fall ofz1 feet, and laden boats tIansfer-
red Up md down in much lefs tine than
is employed in pading in common; but
this invention is capable of being affixed
to fall of 43 feet, or much greater
depth.
