pos sible TO describe the universal enthusiasm
which prevailed, and the ex.rcme beanty and
singnlarliy Sof the spectacle. Numerous
bands of music were IN attendance IN differ
ent places ~ the procession, and cnlivened
the march by their performances. Tho en-
tire line Of streets through which tins I'M
nense body marched, wns lined by spectators.
The windows and balconies wers tbronged
with women and children, who waved thor
handkerchieIs IN token Of their sympathy Nth
he delegates, while these acknow wlrdged tho
attention by repeated cheers. The streets
were decorated with ensigns ond pcnnnnls
with occasionally n iriumphal arch adorned
with evcrgrcens and flowers their whole
appearance therefore when seeD, filed with
a throng Of spectators, the windows Of every
house being crowded also with spectators of
both sexes, while every one, in every posi-.
ble manner exhibited his enthusiasm and
delight, was beautiful in the extreme, and
will not readily be forgotten.
| We have niioncd above the course Of
the procession to State street. II marched
thence through Merchants Row, South Mar
ket and Commercial streets to Warren
Bridge, aDd thence to the Battle field OH
\ Bunker Hill, where the vasi assembly was
called to order, and n declaration Of the prin-
cples of the Convention was read by Mr..
Webster aud adopted.
| The convention was organized at Bunker
\ Hin by appointing the following officers:
Hon. DANIEL WEBSTER, Prcst.
Hon. WILLIAM KING Of Maine,
Hon. WILLIAM UrIAM Of Vermont,

| Hon. DENNIS KIMBERLY of Connecticut,
Hon. ASHER ROBBINS OF Rhode Island,

PHILIP GREELY, Jr. Of Boston,
and GEo WAnRES Of Charlestown, as
Secretaries.
The weather thus far had been mos, pro-
pitous. The temperature Of The atmosphere
was mild, and the rays uf the sun were for
lunatcly intercepted by clouds during
great part Of the march. On the arrival OF
the procc ssion at tho lill, the clouds threat
cncd storm, which soon fell in n drencllng
shower. A large portion Of tboso in the
procession found places of shelter, but oilcrs
were badly wet, and the returning procession
was very naturally thrown into DISORDER
We do not learn however that any one sus-
tanned any serious injury.
\ Various estimates have bcen Innhe OF ibe
number o! persons in the Proccssion, from
iS, to 80, and even :)5 thousand. We pre-
sumo the number was not far from 20 ,0O0.--
Some joined The procession after the march
commenced, and others left it, on account of
the fatigue of so long "A walk.
\ In the evening, meetings were held IN
conformity with The notices given in the pa
pcrs Of yesterday, at Fancui Hall, at lie
Odcon, at the Marlboro Chapel, aud IN front
Of the City Hall, and The Wing Republican

A pcnsioncd Loco Foco. speaking of

!, quircs, "Waence comes the meaas,-thc

enquiry among rc1cciing men," The
answer is at hand; it issues from that
never failing "Sub Treasury" to be
found in the bosom Of every individual,
determined to be free. The same which
inspired our patriot fathers of the Rcvo-
luton, when struggling against the com
bined efforts of British tyrants and Brit
ish gold, 'to declare themselves free,
sovereign and independent" and at the
same time to pledge 'their lives, their
fortunes, and their sacred honors," for

forts olthe Tories in those days, that dc

King Richard may feel it roproach to
be compared. a negative answer may
also be granted to this inquisilive "demo-

who, justly indignant ut the monstrous
assumption of power by the Executive,
and alarmed for the safety of their re-
publican institutions, are collecting in
muliitudcs in every section Of the land
to devise the most certain means to in

and intelligent Chief Magistrate. Mon

of mighty gathering, to be fully con

spirit of Vermont has put "the ball in

until Smith and Fletcher will find in

associates, who now sympathize and
trcmble, as they anticipate and fear
their just deserts. In vain will the min
ions of power endeavor to shield them
selves by their sophistries or ISLANDERS.
Such is the spirit Of the times neither

the "qnmsi" Wings is now fairly ovin-
ccd, and though they contend with a
party fighting for existence, who will
leave no artfice untried which tyrants

FFLIC TON.

Thou art a harsh instructor-yet by thee
We learn most needful lessons. Thou dost teach
How frail and heeting are earth's fondest hopes,
How on the joy we seek beyond us flies,
Leaving the eyes to tears, the heart TO wo.
Thine is forni Of darkness, and we turn
Heart sick and weary from thy cad embrace,
We fly thy dreaded presence, ever feared.
And trembling hide us from thy frowning face,
And yet thy lessons are in mercy sent.
The heart that God breaks with afliction's stroke
on, like the flower when stricken by the storm,
Rises from earth, moie steadfastly 10 turn
Itself TO heaven. Affection, thou art stern
IN all thy dealings with us--yet It's true
That ihro' the worlds dim pathway thy cold hand
ls leading to the home OF jov and peace.
And on the borders of thar better land
Shall thy sharp ministry forever cease.
Then shall we bless thee-safely landed there
And know above how good thy teachings were:
linen feel thy keenest strokes to us in love were
given,
That hearts most crushed on earth, shall mos,
rejoice in heaven. Ms.
