BosroS, 18th Sept. 1910.
The streets, the hotels, the squares, the public
places are yet much crowded with STRANGERS. al.
though many thousands have departed. This after.
vast shoals will leave by the various railroads
to Providence, Norwich, Springfield, Salem and
Lowell.
Yesterday morning, after 10 o'clock, the parting
specialization took place at Fanueil Hall, in the
presence of Daniel Webster and his hos piable fel.
low citizens attended at the Hall, little before
the hour, and found it already crowded almost to
suhocation. Many women were present. In the
day light, think this crowded hall presented a
more venerable appearance than at night, though
lighted up with gas and chandelier. From the wes-
tern wall the various splendid portraits of the We
nerable men Of past days, looked forth upon the
multitude smlingly. But above all, the portrait Of
Washington, by Stuart, was cons picuous and strik-
ing. The more look on this painting, the more
am in raptures with it..
In the course Of the morning many speeches were
made. do not know how it is in other States, but
it is singular that the most unpopular men in New
York, who could not be elected to any Office,
always loom the most largely at these voluntary
semblages in other States. Phillip Hone made a
very good speech, and believe Charles King aso
spoke, but did not hear him. The speak, ing con-
tinued for several hours but there is nothing new
in the political haran2ues Of either party at this late
hour of the day. Not mana leader-a polite

be recountcd before he opens his lips. II is true
