THURSDAY. JUNE IS, 1857.


TheRepublican StateConventiOn which was held
here yesterday, as far as the nomination for Gov
srnor was concerned, resulted contrary to our
wishes, but not contrary to our expectations
The vote for Mr., Banks upon the informal bal
lot, was very decisive as to what the final result
would be, and the sudden and unexpected adhe-
sion given in to the nomination by Hon. Charles
Allen of this city, Immediately after the declara.
tion Of tie vote, settled the question at once.
The position taken by Mr.. Allen was the cause
of not little surprise to his political friends, as
well as opponents, and it was not until after the
speech of Mr.. Burlingame, that any real explain
alton was obtained in regard to it, In his speech
in the Convention, Mr.. Burlingame declared in
the most unequiyocal terms that Mr.. Banks was
aRepublican and nothing else, that he STOOD upon
the Philadelphia platform. and belonged to no 9TH
erparty than the Republican party of the nation.
The, pledges given in open Convention for MIR.
Banks, were given, we understand, in advance, to
Judge Allen and other influential gentlemen Of
tAe Republican party, on the previous evening,
aud the way was paved for slencing the opposi
t1n to Mr.. Banks by the authoritative declaration
ofone Of his most intimate friends, of his sound
ness upon the principles, platform, and purposes
Of the Republican party.
Our own position in the matter has been clear
" defined from the first mention of Mr.. Banks's
name in connection with the office of Governor
Its, that we should support him if he came out
fairly and squarely upon the Republican plat
form and Acknowledged himself to be member of
the Republican party, and no other. To the re-
corded declaration of our views we still adhere,
and shall await for the solution OF the whole mat
ter, the letter which Mr.. Banks will submit to the
officers of the Convention in response to the nom
nation. If he is a Republican, and stands upon
the Philadelphia platform, we shall support him.
i be is hybrid, half American, half Republi'
caa, standing on two platforms, owing allegiance
to two parties, we shall prefer to stand by the in
tegity Of our own party, with small minority,
rather than participate in barren victory at the
polls, which cannot but result in disaster to the
Republican cause.
Of the other members of the ticket we have
only room to say that they are all good men and
true Republicans, and that it will give give US
great pleasure TO aid in the election of SO excel
lent ticket.

A PLEASANT ItEUNIoN.-Ten years ago, Mon
day night, says the Bay State, ten young ladies
who were attending school in this city where
Bangs's Block now stands, agreed with their
teacher, Miss Stearns, to meet in Just ten years.
and have supper at the Worcester House,
Nothing but death was to interfere with the meet
ing of the full number. Monday night they all
came to the Lincoln House together The hand
of death had been laid upon none. Time had also
dealt leniently with them and but two of their
number were married. They all sat down to
Lincoln House supper. What congratulations
passed, what experiences were related, what dis
appointments and sorrows were talked over,
known but to themselves. They were alone with
their own thoughts. Within ten years great
changes have taken place in the appearance of
things in this city, and if among them were any
who had not walked though Main street for that
length of time, they would have been somewhat
astonished. May they have many such pleasant
reunions, and when their eyes shall have grown
dim with age, may they glide gently to that place
where they shall be no more separated.
