two years actual service in the same
capacity. To show tho extent Of the
public confidence in them, it is proper
to state. that, on this occasion, for the
first time. the large stockholders were
equally dirided: the United States and
Maryland on one side, and the Corpo.
rations Of Washington, Georgetown.
and Alexandria, on the other. De-
duct. then, three thousand votes from
MIR. Mercer, and like number from
the Government candidate, and de.iuct
900 extra votes, given against MIR.
Mercer, by the State Of M1ryland, and
20 given against him sy the State of
Virginia, and it Will be found that. of
the individua, .tockholder.. voting in
person or b. proxy, Mr.. Mercer re-
ceived aboot $3.50 votes, and the can.
dictate OF the United-Statcs about no
,vo:cs.
IL would be grea, injustice to Com
modore Rodgers, as well as to the pco.
pie OF the District, TO suppose that this
vote IS any measure OF the respect en-
tcrtained for him by the people Of this
District and neighborbood. Regret
ting most sincerely that the United
States took the course it did, the PEG.
pie yet could not consent that, to pro-
pltiaie the Government, Mr.. Mercer
should bc put down. or put aside.
They, therefore, rallied around him
and his colleagues.
IL is proper to add, that Of the votes
IN favor of the old Direction, a good
number we're given by persons friendly
to the present administration of the
General Government.

:, when II was proposed in February last, in the

britain from the civil disabilities under which they SO
uWustly labor, two of the cabinet bore emphatic es
''mony to the general good conduct and personal res
pectaoiity OF the members of the Hebrew reli.

we remember to have noticed, some time since a
case IN London paper, where the police magistrate
refused to take the evidence Of coach driver, I'M
