o. We have to-day news from Europe several
days later than that in our last possesses consi
derable interest," but not of that decisive character
which we must soon expect.
% On our last page will be found the returns Of
the votes for Senator'S by which it will be seen that
there FIVE vacancies to be filled by the Legisla-
ture: one in each of the counties Of Worcester,
Hampshire, Bristol, Berkshire, and Franklin. Messrs
Joseph Bowman and Samuel Mixter are the candi-
dates for this County.
o. 1t will be seen by our extracts to-day, that
the Tariff bill has passed the Senate and gone to the
House for its concurrence in various amendments
which have been made to it. The House, it is
thought, will concur The readers attention is di-
rected to the remarks of the editor of the Boston
Daily Advertiser on this subject.
% The article on our first page, from the Con-
cord Gazette, we notice by paper received since
our first side printed is materially erroneous in
point of fact The person there said to be missing,
and probably the murdered man. it is stated has been
known to be living since his departure letters from
distance having been received from him. This
statement is due to the individual against whom sus-
pcion is raised.
New Posi- ROUTE. A mail route has
been recently established between Boston
and Holden. 1t passes through the village
of Feltonsville in the north part of Marlbo-
ro', where Silas FELTON, is Post Master, Ber-
lin, Jonathan D. Merriam, Post Master, Boyl-
ston, Eli B. Lampson, Post Master, and West
Boylston, to Holden.
We understand that Rev. Mr.. Damon, late
of Lunenburg, has received and accepted a
call to settle over a society recently gather
ed in Amesbury. The friends of Mr.. Damon
in this vicinity will rejoice that he has so
early found an opportunity of again putting
in exercise the talent, with which he is bles-
sed in an eminent degree, of dispensing the
truths of the gospel, and of assuming the
parochial charge of people among whom
his residence promises much happiness to
himself
Nothing can exceed the bitterness and
entire restitution of principle which charac-
terize the Boston Statesman in its opposition
to the Administration, and support of Gen.
Jackson. That paper is now publishing
what it entities the "Cream of the Cunning
ham Letters" and attempting to discredit
Mr.. Adams by bringing against him certain
opinions expressed by his father, extracted
from these letters. One fact which is al
legged against Mr.. Adams is that his father,
and himself, or the "Adams dynasty" in the
phraseology of the Statesman, entertained
high opinion respecting Caleb Strong
Terrible charge indeed where would be
the best men our country has seen were this
offence to denounce them? Another charge
is that old Mr.. Adams said that Gallatin
made disturbance in this country! The
editors of the Statesman must have had con-
siderable confidence in the gullibility of their
readers, and have enjoyed hearty laugh in
their sleeve at their expense, when they re-
corded this charge. If all are in the favour
of Mr.. Adams who know any thing about
the Whiskey InSu,rection, Gen. Jackson NAV
despair of ever having an opportunity to
"stop de veels of de government"
1t is amusing to observe with what dex-
terlty the advocates of party turn upon each
other the squibs which are continually fy-
ing about disturbing their quiet; and give a
different direction to the troublesome insects
in the shape of newspaper paragraphs which
they cannot crush. The following is from
Maj. Noah, Judge of Israel, and High King
of the Jacksonites in N. York.
An Adams editor ofthe west. talking of the sion
ers to an address in his county, says they consist of
the bone and muscle' of the county Right-the
whole Adams party reduced to bone and mus
clen Binns says that Clay is piece of perfect re-
duction
An attempt to choose eleven Representa-
tives In Salem, on Wednesday last, resulted
in the choice of only seven. The people of
Salem are unhappily divided by so many
real or imaginary interests that it is with no
little difficulty that their true welfare is kept
in view. The state of feeling produced pro-
badly by the depression of business, the
consequent enervation of the citizens, and
the irritation and discord occasioned by dis
appointments in various schemes which have
been projected for the revival of the bust
