illegal Pofes."--An article in late Bos.
ton Palladium, on the subject Of illegal votes
supposed to have been given at the late CUB
ernatorial election, is we think, as iliberal and
impollticS and ridiculous, as it is ill-iounded.
The writer. says that FIVE hundred illegal votes
were given in Boston, and that all of them
probably were for Mr.. Eustis. Whether that
assertion DE fact or not, it is really as indec-
orous as it is against all probability to suppose
that they were all given in favour of the sue
cessiul candidate. But the writer, By a sort
of " Rule of Three in which, having assum-
ed has two first terms, the fourth is found
without difficulty, demonstrates, very sat-
isactorily to himself, no doubt, that, if the
illegal votes were deducted, Mr.. Eustis's ma
jority would be destroyed! and he seriously
proposes to have the election contested on
that ground. Why, what infatuation is this
There are always more or less illegal votes;
but, for the credit Of the people, do not let it
be said that there are ever mauy Knowingly
admitted. At the late election, some difficulty
was experienced in deciding upon the qualf-
cations of voters, and the practice varied in
different towns. But, putting Boston and Sa-
lem out of the account, we do not believe the
majority Of Mr.. Eustis was increased five hun
dred by illegal votes. What evidence is there
oft? If there is only conjecture, why then,
in the name of deceucy, is it not supposed pos
sible that, in some of the numerous federal
towns, men may have voted who, upon strict.
construction Of the constitutional provision,
were not entitled to vote? Undoubtedly some
such, in almost every town, did vote; but
who will undertake to show which aggregate
was thereby increased9
We have noticed the article in the Palladi-
um, because we are unwilling that the writer's
views should be regarded as those of the Fed

The English papers, received by the arrival
mentioned IN oar last. Though the Span
iards may be eventually overwhelmed, we de
not believe they will easily yield to French
dIctation They have already adopted, with
some success, the policy pursued by them

before their enemy, and, by constantly ha-
raising him, to waste his strength without

of Magazine dSy on the last day OF

in consequence, a species of book fair is
created IN the vicinity of Paternoster

published on that day cause returns with.
in few hours'in ready money, of little
short of three thousand pounds. In A.
merica, on the contrary, the proprietors
OF periodical works labor under disae-
vantage Of being their own distributors,
and instead of being paid in ready money,
in large sums by wholesale booksellers,
they depend on precarious returns from
individual subscribers scattered over the
wide spread regions of the U. ). Thus
we see in these journals, incessans COM
plants of caprice and negligence of SUBJ
scribers and thus it is, that, however,
great the merit Of some American lite.
