there not being more than 60 or 10 delegates
and spectators in attendance. julius Converse,
Esq, Of Woodstock, was President of the Con-
v,nlion.
strong effort was made TO procure the re-
nomination Of Horace Everett, headed or led
on by Consul Jarris, OF Wea,her,field: b,ucr
known as the Great Dictator Of Windsor
county. But it was OF no avail Hon. Jacob
Colamer of Woodstock, * Judge Of the su.
preme Couit, received the nomination. H IS
man of the Webster and Cushing school Of
politics; and IS what may probably be term,
Conservative. He will, think, BE- elected.-
Mr.. Horace Everett is what the Green Noun

made every effort in his power to obtain The
election OF Senator, and was defeated He

He may learn a lesson, If he be not already TOO
old, hat in trying T. head our loorthy RepubH-

OF preparing gallows, Haman-likc, whose first
victim that should suffer would be himself al

Abolitlonsts have but one candidate, which
proved unsuccessful.
In Hon. WIN. Slade's district the wings held
a convention the 8 h inst, and nominated Geo.
T. Marsh, Esq Of Burlington, for Representa-
aye TO Con ress. Siade was expecting the
domination, and his fren Is were very sanrulne

ire dropped by their own party Comment is
Unnecessary.
There IS nothing Of importance going on
mong US at the present time. The Bunker
ihl Celebration, the President and Cabinet,
'anIel Webster, the great military display
which will there be made in honor Of the day
nd the President are the engrossing themes Of
conversation among all classes. II will be
feat day for New England, the like which we
hall not for long time ir ever, witness again.
Yours, &c. OBSERVER.
