The Massachusetts election, appears to api

OF all the other elections going on at the sGme time
IN many parts OF the Union see paragraphs in
the newspapers, but hear not a syllable from any o.
Their quarter. But American ederalists in this ctv
have received letters from their friends in London
and In Gottenburg, in high exultation announcing
the election Of Mr.. Gore, by majority of more
than three thoughand votes. Other Americans Of
different politics contestthe validity ofthis return
and affirm that Mr.. Gerry and Mr. GRAY have been
reelected, though by reduced majority compar-
ed with that OF last year. Why this extreme anx-
iety Tor the massachusetts, election Is il Mr.
Gore Tor whose elevation all this enthusiasm is har-
boured! think it by no means difficult to ac-
count Tor. There is much foreign hope and fear
involved in these Massachusetts elections all the
rest, even New York are despaired Of But the
massachusetts federal politicians have got to talk
so openly, and with such indifference not to saw
readiness for dissolution Of the Union they are
SO valiant in their threats ofresstance to the laws
they seem so resoIute for little experiment upon
the energy of the Union and its Government. that

Like Impressions doubtless made Mr. Giles and
others, who then direction to the public sentiment
notwithstanding these disadvantages if Mr. Adams had
not seen INT to proclaim to the world his former
nuncation, there had still been hope that those
Impressions would be speedily oblterated that odous
distinctions between the people of different States would
be abolished and that all would come TO feel common

procedure OF the national government which have been
manifested successfully many occasions, and in
many States, to the feelings which, in free governments
are always reused by bike causes and charac
not OF factous but generous sensbity TO real sup

charge with animation and by his political legacy
to the people of Massachusetts, undertakes entail upon
them lasting dishonor. He re-arms his conviction of
