From The FREEDMAN, april Is.

From The FREEDMAN, .3priI To-
bH1he Annual Town-gatherings for Mid-
desex took place on Monday last. In This
township, North Brunswick,) the hnrra boys.
as the litcry Lhi.fiain's friends cali themselves,
took il into their heads to make muster for
political effect. They had two or three prepa-
ratory private meetings, named their candi-
dates, and passed the watch word round, so as
10 be able 10 act with promp,itude and vigor.
The hour of meeting found them all at their
posts. The FIRST dash was 10 secure the Mode
razor. In this they were folcd by an over
whelming vote. The next push was for Judge
Of Eiee ton. Here, again, they found them
selves in a most distressing minority. This
was too bad to be end Ired, and well nigh overs
turned al! Their, philosophy. However, they
rallied again, on The questions for Assessor and
Chosen Freeholdeis, hut were successiveiy
beaten by such decisive votes as left no room
for bubble or doubt-and they wendeA their
way home mourniuiIy and silently. Thc friends
OF the administration throughout, acted purely
the defensive. The first vote developed
their strength, and showed their opponents
what they could do, if the, pleased. But, :hcy
magnanimousy refused to prescribe; ana where
an officer had done his duty were willing 10
re>elec him, and did re elect, without reference
70 politics We hope our Jackson friends will
profit Of this lesson. - The reader will bear
in mind that North Brunswick is the strong
hold OF Jacksonism in MiddleseX.
The Township, we are happy to say, continu-
ed its appropriation for the Education Of Poor
ChHdren-though we should have been better
pleased 10 see larger sum voted.
