The Republican Cancns

On saturday evening was largely attended
we think we never saw so many to. gether at
q primary meeting In Burlington. Too often
those meetlngs-the most important Of all
are left to the care and management Of a very
few. In this case 1T was not so. Citizens
from every part Of the town wore present.
and there was a good spirit shown. WV.
u SHAW Esq. presided, and W. H. Roor was
Secretary On the first ballot, II. B. Stacy
Esq, was chosen to represent the Freemen of
Burlington in the General Assembly, by a
large majority. The vote stood For II. b
stacy 100 for g.. f. Edmunds 50 for YIN.
Weston one. On motion Of Mr.. Edmupds.
the nomination was made unanimous by ac-
clamatlon. Mr.. Stacy has ably represented
the town before, and he will do so again.
Mr. Stacy was called up, and addressed the
meeting lie spoke of his attachment to the
cause OF Fremont 4 Freedom, and of the i'm
portanee OF the crisis, pledged his utmost eff.
forts TO faithfully represent his constltuen ts
and to care for the best interests of Rurling.
ton, lie announced also that he should|
favor the establishment by the Legislature of
Houses of Correction for juvenile offenders
and the alteration or repeal of the existing
law of attachment. Messrs. Edmunds. Yves
ton, and J. S. Adams. addressed the meetinc
urging the duty of organization, and active
efforts on the part Of the Republicans to secure
a tull vote and an overwhelming majority.

TIE Mass Meeting at s., fihan-

The gathering of Republicans at st. Al.
bans yesterday, was an imposing ono.
Though the day was the first fair one after
three weeks Of almost incessant rain, and the
necessity Of improving it in the care of their
crops, kept many Of the farmers at home,
there was a very large asscmblagc. The
train from this direction carried into 81. Al
bans over two hundred men. Tho towns of
Franklin and Lamoille counties sent each its
quota, and a moro substantial or better look.
ing crowd is not often seen anywhere. The
speaking took place in the open air \
platform surrounded with banners was
erected on the lower side Of the Park in
front OF which seats for two thousand people
had been arranged These were all filed
and were surrounded by a multitude Of
ISLANDERS There were from $500 to 5000
persons, including n number Of ladies, on the
ground. Lieut. Gov. Fletcher presided.
and opened the exercises with some excellent
remarks. He was followed by Hon. Homer F
Royce, who spoke for over an hour. His speech
was able, eloquent, convincing, and every
way excellent, and 1t was received with
unmistakable marks of qualification and an.
proval. After dinner Hon f. y Culver nd
dressed the meeting for two hours. and. as he
is wont to do, made an impreesion

sharp hits and amusing turns, and was fre-
quently interrupted by loud applause. Mr..
}. 5. Adams succeeded in some spirited re-
marks, at the close of which the meeting ad-
iourned The speeches were iptersrersod
with music from tho St. Adams Band. and
campaign songs, sung in capital style by the
st. Adams Glce Club. A torchlight process
sion, which we did not wait to see. closed the
proceedings Of the day.
