the Chorus from Nayden's Creation, and the

the various feelings and passions of the human

part of the exercises Of publick religious wor-

Wr. Randolph's Talcdictory.-In another
part of our paper will be found letter adj
dressed by MIR. Randolph to his constituents,
upon the eve of his sailing from New-York for
Europe. Our readers will probably agree
with US in pronouncing it one of the most re-
mar<able Of that gentlenan's eccentricities.
notwithstanding, however, the barbed poi,l!
Of the missile, and the temper with which it
must have been hurled, it may, perhaps, oc-
oasion some profitable reflections to the peo-
pie. Atany rate, it deserves attention as a
curiosity.
The Newburyport Herald makes the follow
ing remarks on it,

querulous and splenetick egotism is marked
by the same frantick spirit of outrage upon all

weather wes unfavourahle, yet the concourse

served in the assembly.
The singing was conducted by Col. Daniel
Newhall, who had been previously engaged
there in the instruction of singing school for
lew weeks. The performances reflect much
honour and credit on his taste and ability as
an instructor. 7,

WORCESTER,
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 10, 1922.
THE ELECTION.
zZ2Z<ZIz5

The returns Of votes for GOVERNOR, show
that the people of this State continue well af-
fected towards the present State Administra-
ton. Gov. Brooks is reelected by majority
very little,. if any, diminished. 1t is not yet
ascertained who are elected to the Senate.
In several districts it is supposed there will be
vacancies to be filed by the Legislature
probably in Middlesex and perhaps in Hamp-
shire, and some other Counties. In Essex and
Worcester the regular Federal candidates are
elected.
The result ought to satisfy those who make
systematick opposition to the present State
Administration, that the game is desperate
one, and the course as unwise as it is fruitless.
Much has been said of the " erclusipe" spirit
of the majority-but while that majority is
driven to stand on the defensive, the charge,
even if well founded, is as preposterous as it is
idle. Let systematick opposition cease-let
the minority respect the wishes and feelings of
the majority--let them discard party views !;
and the regular annual array Of the same por-
ton of the community against the other, will
cease. To expect it sooner, is to look for an
effect, not only without but against the opera
ton of a cause.
Below is continuation of the returns of
votes from this County. 1t is desirable to have
the list of the towns in the County complete /;
and we will thank gentlemen to furnish us, as
soon as NAV be- with the votes from those
towns not yet published.

To CORRESPONDENTS.

GIVE give place to two communications
describing the performances of Singing Socie-
ties. One of them is not of very recent date !;
but if it has been long in our possession, it has
been mislaid.
o. The Communication of e A Citisen,n
relative to subject connected with the late
Election, is deferred. We should like to con-
fer with the writer, or some friend of his, for
the purpose of showing to him why it would,
as we believe, be highly inexpedient to pub
lish the article. This suggestion is meant
kindly, and we dare say will be so received.
If our correspondent shall finally differ from us
in opinion on the subject, we shall have no
sort Of objection against publishing his commu-
nication.
" We find, among file of papers which
have recently accumulated, some elegiack
lines. We feel for mourning friends; but we
are bound, in this place, to cater for the pub
lick taste.

Aqueducts of this kind, can be furnished with
any size or weight, by calling on the Subscrib-
er, at his Shop, near SIKEs's Inn, in Worces-

he has hitherto received, he shall still merit
the patronage of those who wish to purchase
this kind of article.
