We have just heard that the members of
the present Cabinet have declined taking
any part in any new arrangement that may
be made. The new Cabinet, it is said, will
consist Of the Marquis Wellesley, Mr.. Can
ming, the Marquis of Lansdowne, Lord Hol-
land. Lord Moil.. and Mr.. Huskisson.
The Marquis of Wellesley TO be First
Lord of the Treasury Mr.. Canning,
Lord Holland and the Marquis of Lans-
downe, the three Secretaries of State Mr.
Huskisson, Chancellor of the Exchequer,
and Lord Mora, Lord Lieutenant of Ire
land.
The Flemish fishermen report great
battle between the Russians and French,
which lasted two days; the place is not sta
ted, nor the result distinctly but it is said
that the French had three particular regi-
ments cut pieces.
The event is of itself not improbable,
though the authority is very doubtful.

1t seems that the people of the north have
not understood the federal Constitution in
ahe sense we were educated To consider it,
We were taught to believe it IL conlhact far

that if the utmost peoples hope is realized,
If we turn out query man north OF the Del
aware who voted for war, and send a unani
NOUS representation for peace, still there is
q large majority against rs. Our tyrants,
our masters, appear in the south, Ike a

Observation-Disclosures means is the watch
word, though it is as plain as day, that no
constitutional means In prospect can extricate
lbs from hopeless, dcsola,ing, interminabe
war waged by our rulers only to secure
their power, and trample down that OPPOSE
ton, which orr wealth, our talents and our
Interests have made troublesome and OBJ
noxious to them. They hold us fast by our

neans constitute the strongest trait in the
character of the eastern states. Our rulers
know it, and they dread not our votes. We
not and cannot have enough to counteract
them. FAREWELL PEACE AND HAP

claim the promise Of the Selectmen, to per-

The writer's OF virtuous ancestry lin Craig's
paper, called the British Mercury, have the
,natchless audacity 10 say "the government
never offered TO loan this State fifteen hun
tred or any number of arms" TO those
who know the facts, to say that it is wilful
lie on the part Of the scribbIers, would be
unnecessary We will just state the circum-
stances relative to that affair as they have
come ID our knowledge. Mr.. Champlin,
late Senator to Congress, previous TO his re-
signation, expressed a wish to tho Secretary
at War, to have quantity of arms deposited
in this town for the use of the militia, to be
used in case OF emergency. When the Sc
cretary at War passed through this town on
his way TO Boston, he made inquiry where
suitable place could be procured to deposit
them, requesting they might be stored back
from the harbor, as the salt water would In
iurc (by rus,ing) them. The garrct OF the
Court-House was named TO him suitable
place of deposit. The arms arrive. a gen
tleman of unimpeachable integrity and vcraci.
ty, applied to the Hon. William Hunter and
Benjamin Hazard, Esq. who were then mem
bers Of the General Assembly, TO know IT the
Carret Of the Courl-fIouse could be had. This
application was made to a federal General
Assembiy-the refusal was predicted by
some, and by others reverse was expected.
Those gentle men applied 10 the General AS
semb!y, then in session, TO obtain their per-
mission. Instead of granting it, debate
arose among The federal members, as to the
object of having those arms deposited there.
Finally, after much alteration, they appoint
ed committee TO inquire for what purpose
those arms were sent here, against whom
they f, he uxc1. &c S.c OF this com-
mittec, Henry Bull was one. The Assembly
rose, and to this day, that committee have
never reported. The arms arc deposited in
AN obscure store in the back part of the town.

MASSACHUSETTS ELECTION.

The result of the election in Massachusetts
has not &c, been ascertained. In about $40
towns the Republican ticket has Increased, a.
bout 1000 votes, although the federal III
crease is still greater. In So towns, in the
District of Maine, (Which has SO often disap-
pointed the hopes oi the federal faction) the
Republican net gain is 7s3--which, if it con-
tinues in that proportion will give the patri-
OF GERRY a handsome majority. 1t is al
ready asccrtained the Senate has Republican
majority, and the probability is there will be
about three Republicans to one fedcralist in
that branch of the Legislature. From a
careful examination Of the returns published
in the Boston papers, we find but few towns
have changed their political complexion, and
the number is about equal, SO that there is no
doub, Of a Republican majority in the House
Of Representatives. The Republican major
ity on the last political vote in the House,
was above one hundred.
