AnnuaI Meeting.

The meeting for the ELECTION of Town Officers,
was holden in this town yesterday.
ISAAC ADAMS, Esq. was chosen Moderator.
The Board Of Selectmen consisting Of Isaac
adams, Joshua Richardson, Benjamin Nsley,
Mark Harris and Woodbury. Siorcr, Jr. together
with the Assessors, Town Clerk, Treasurer and
Collector of last year were re- elected.
William POllsys was chosen Inspector Of the
Police.
The meeting stands adjourned to ten O'Clock
on Monday next. Committees were appointed
to report at the adjournment what monies are
necessary to raise for town purposes, and to re
port list Of suitable candidates for those Offices
which are usually filed by nomination.

on the part of the Holy Alliance, and not with

Should Naples however disappoint these con-
lectures, and trusting TO God aud her GOOD
cause, take up arms against the coniederacy
Of Kings. the result would probably no, be
confined in the boot of Italy. Olber powers
would enlist, and all Europe may be again
