Boundary Line Convention.

A convention Of citizens of Massachusetts
opposed to the report of the Commissioners
who were appointed to settle the boundary
line between this state and Rhode-l Island,
was held at Fall River on Wednesday last
at which b. B. SIsson Of Westport presided.
Resolutions were passed declaring that the
agreement entered into by the majority Of
the Boundary Commissioners of Massachu.
,setts, with those of Rhode Island, in April
last, respecting that line, ought nerer 10 be
ratified by the Legislature OF this state, and
the speakers, generally came to the opinion,
that The line agreed upon by our Commission
ers, -" is such one as Massachusetts men
ought never to have sanctioned, there being
no evidence in the Plymouth Charter or his.
tory, in the Rhode Island Charter of 1863, or
the decision OF the Royal Commissioners Of
l74l, which decision was approved by the
King in Council in l740, that such a line
ought to exist, or ever has truly existed, but
that the reverse is true /; for the said line has
the very peculiar claim of being founded up
on no Charter, and no decision OF any CON-
pc,ent authority recognized by either Ply
mouth or Massachusetts, from the arrival OF
the May Flower to the present time. II was
therefore concluded that it is not the true
uObUudTJ w uHu OuHHt uOt
to be sanctioned by the Legislature"
The Fall River Monitor, from which the
above is principally taken, observes, in con.
lclusion-
We noticed quite number ofpersons
present from the neighboring towns, and al.
so many of our leading citizens, during the
day and we hope that the influence Of this
Convention will be such, as to lead the
Legislature OF this state to withhold their
sanction from an agreement, which, from all
the evidence we possess, does great injustice
TO Massachusetts transferring, as II does,
the jurisdiction over from two to three thou
sands OF persons who are located upon soil
I"properly belonging" TO ber,to that Of state
which has no rightful claim over them what
lsoever.
A correspondent Of the Providence Journal
states, IN contradiction TO the above, that the
meeting was very small, and that little In
,cres, was attached to its proceedings.

stituton-will welcome The representative e
OF more than one hundred millions Of people.
In conclusion, permit me 10 express to
YOU. sir, and to your associates OF the Com
mon Council, my hearty thanks tor the very
agreeable manner in which you have offered
me the inequalities Of New York.
Mr.. Polk spoke in deliberate manner
his eloculion resembling that sometimes heard
from pulpit, rather than that usually prac'
tised al the Bar in Congress; his enuDcia
ton was also marked by some Southern pe'
cuiarities.
many other gentlemen were then introduced
to the President. Among them Arthur w.
Austin, Esq. OF Charlestown, Mass. who, as
representative Of that City. rendered to his
xceency the first invitation which he has
received TO visit any town Of Massachusetts,.
After having discharged his mission. Mr..
Austin remarked 10 US that {" The old Bunker
Hill Town was always on hand" The party
then removed to the gentlemen's cabin, where
q most abundant and elegant COLLATION. was
spread. On Passing Fort Hamilton an ap-
proprate salute was fred, which, as the boat
approached the landing, was repeated from
the batteries Of Governors Island and from
the ships in the harbor. These were all de-
corated with flags and crowded with specta.
tors. The outer gallery on Castle Garden
was alive with the people who greeted the
distinguished guest with cheers.
Another account states that the Roxbury
Committee was also on board
The party having landed, Mayor Brady ad-
dressed the President in an appropriate
speech, to which the President replied in a
brief and pertinent manner. After which he
proceeded to review the troops on the Bat
terry.
Nearly all the Volunteer Companies of the
City were under arms, and made fine ap-
pearance.
The procession was then formed accord.
ing 10 the order laid down in the programme,
and passed through the streets. Crowds of
both sexes lined the side walks every win.
dow and roof from which The spectacle could
be seen Yas fully occupied. The quiet
me agre procession contained very few per-
sons except the members Of the Corporation
and invited guests, and The military the So.
ciety of Tammany was, we believe, the only
civic association which was represented. ex-
cept two or three FIRE companies. The
marching salute in the Park, which closed
the pageant, took place about five, and ut
half past FIVE the President withdrew to his
lodgings, after day Of fatiguing cvilities.
On Saturday morning,the President visited
Fulton Market, and afterwards had a levee at
the City Hall. At hall.past twelve he cross
ed over to Brooklyn, where he was briefly
addressed by the Mayor, and gave similar
reply. lie then visited the Navy Yard, Dry
Dock, and other public works. lIe was at
tended by a numerous escort of the civil au-
,horities. the military, and 6remen Of Brook
lyn.
On Monday morning the President left
New York for Boston, via New Haven,
Hartford, Springfield, &c.

VERA CRpz ITEMs.-Addtional particu
lars of the assault OIL the specie train are
given by New Orleans papers. Our loss is
stated at only FIVE 10 seven killed. The most
desperate charge was made, doubtless through
mistake, on that portion Of the train carrying
ammunition, supposing it specie. An old
Priest OF great distinction at Alvarado, re-
celved on the 9Th inst, letter from his
brother in the city of Mexico, to the effect
that Herrera's election would take place on
the 20lh Of June, and would be supported by
the united Church party, deciding the issue
of poace or war. The letter declares that q
continuation of the war would be the down
fall of the Church that it behooves them to
unite with the peace party and put an end to
the war; that Immediately on Herrera's G.
lection being decided, propositions for peace
will be made TO our government and con-
cluded in short time afterwards.
Col. .McIntosh's Command 1.-The train
which left Vera Cruz under the special com
mand of Col. Mcintosh, was escorted by com
panies + of the 4th United States infantry
B of 5lb infantry & ofthe 9Th infantry; ! OF
the 18th infantry X Of the 18th /; and ID, G
and X Of the Cd Dragons, in all about SOC

Garrison Of Vera Cruz.-We have been
informed that the number Of troops at Vera
Cruz, since the departure Of Gen. Cadwal
lader, has been reduced to SO low figure az
to give raise to some apprehensions for the
safety of the city, in case Of on attack, by any
thing like the number said to be under Pedro
Jaruety. There we're not more than forty
men fit for duty in the Castle Of San Juan d.
u loa when the Massachusetts left.

James X. Polk, the President OF the
United States, has announced, it will be
seen on perusing his New York speech,
that he shall retire at the expiration Of
his present term. There is not the least
doubt Of it. lie will most assurcdly have
permission so to do. The Lowell Daily
Courier says" If the whole country
could have heard Folks declaration that
he would not be a candidate for re-elec-
ton, what a tremendous echo there woAd
have been at the close Of his speech" y
