THURSDAY, Jan. 30, 1915
At 20 minutes past 10 o'clock the convention as
sembed in the fremont Temple (the old fremont
rheatre) About as many deeg ites were present
as on the previous day; and the galleries were well
filled with spectators OF both sexes, and OF colors
IS varied as the spirits described by the witches IN
Macbeth: Prayer was made by the Rev. Pres'den,
Allen, of Northampton, and then the President,
Hon. Judge Williams, took the chair;
Messrs. S. G. Phillips, OF Salem; Charles Allen,
Of Worcester; John c. Gray and Chas F. Adams
If Boston; and William b Calhoun, were appoint
ed the permanent committee of correspondence,

Yesterday.
Mr. GARRISON objected to the committee
they were all of the wing party, and he thought
the abotionists ought to be represented. and per
haps the democrats
mr.. PHI,IIps. the chairman of the business
committee, read letter from the Hon. Leverett
Saltensall, of Salem, prominent actor In getting
up the Hartford Convention. This letter expressed
the most decided hostility to annexation, and
the writer's regret at not being able to be present
Mr.. Phillips then made great flourish OF trumpets
about a letter he had got from distinguished
democrat of Massachusetts, against the annexation
of Texas, and in favor Of the objects OF the con
vention. Expectation was on tip-toe, and the as
sembly were making up their mouths to hear dec
araton against Texas from the profound Morton,
least when 10, and behold the " distinguished
democrat turned out to be one James Fowler, an
obscure individual Of Westeid, who lett the
"locos' some year or two since, and 10 now an
abolitonist. The name came like shower OF
cold water upon the heated Citations OF the con
venuon, and there wes quite "slzzle" when II
was announced by the pompous chairman The
letter was read amid some faint galvanized ap
olause and then another from Professor Stuart OF
Andover. The president said if he had as many
arms as Giges they should all be raised to prevent
annexation; but in his present situation, with one
foot in the grave, it appeared to him unseemly
that he should take an active part In the conven
lion.
In compliance with Mr. GAKRIsoN's suggestion,
the Correspondence Committee was enlarged by
the addition of two members, and James Fowler,
of Westfeld, and James G. Carter, OF Lancaster,
two abolitonists, were appointed
