The Green Mountain Boys Of Chicago arc
making preparations to receive the delegates
from Vermont on their arrival at that city, as
we learn from the following which we clip
from the Chicago Journal of March IS:
"The Republicans of this city, who hail
from the Green Mountain State, held meet
ing at the Colston House last evening to make
arrangements to receive the delegates from
that State to the National Convention. The
meeting was organized by appointing Hon.
w. T. Barron, Chairman, and b. w Ran
stead, Secretary.
The following persons were appointed a
committee to make arrangements Sias b.
Cobb, James Hodges, Lewis Dodge, John A.
Jamison, w. f. Myrick and J X Pollard.
A committee of three was appointed consist
ing of H. II. Aiken, n. c. Perkins and j. X.
Pollard to appoint Corresponding Secretary.
The meeting adjourned to meet again at the
call Of the Chairman.
b. w. RANsrEAp, Scc'y."
The same paper announces that the latch
strings of the Chicago people will be on the
outside of the front door, as follows:
Let it be understood by all concerned, in
every part OF the land, that instead OF seeking
to swindle or tax those who shall come here
to attend the National Convention in May, the
people of Chicago, with their characteristic
liberaity, will vie with each other to render
the stay Of all soiourners here as inexpensive
agreeable and satisfactory as possible. There
will be no exhorbitant hotel or boarding
house charges, and all shall be comfortably
accommodated with temporary homes so Ions
as they remain. This we speak as one having
authority, for we well know how our people
feel about it. Rather than be accused O
'meanness' toward guests, the citizens of Chi
cage would board lodge, and entertain them
during the Convention, free of any charg
whatever. That's the sort of people VIII

reason of his not returning. They found him
quite dead near tree which he had fallen,

ten years old remained at his side till her

in getting him home. Mr.. Martin was for

le'' A good joke is told of Horace Greeley
on the occasion of his political visit here last
summer. The story goes that "the Philoso-
pher' was met at the Wooster House in a
promiscuous company by high-wrought Lo-
cofoco from New Fairfield, who thought to
make laugh at his expense. Loco shook the
hand of the Philosopher vigorously. Philo-
sopher didn't know him. Don't you remem-
ber," suggested Loco "that you and | drank
brandy and water together on the Plains :"
"Oh-oh-yes, responded Philosopher 81
remomber--you drank the brandy and drank
the water !"-J.6crsoniaa.
L. An amusing scene in the Legislature Of
Pennsylvania occurred on motion to remove
the capital of the State from Harrisburgh to
Philadelphia A matter-oEfact member from

facilities with which brick houses are moved
from one part Of the city to another, and who
had not the least idea that any thing but NOV
ing the STATE House was in contemplation,
rose and said MIR Speaker, have no OBJ
lection to the motion, but don't see how on

lage last week The widow, knowing oftheir
depradatons, just seasoned the sap 0H tartar

lV' The Dutch Government has swept away
the last vestge of slavery from its East India
possessions. On the Goth of last September
the institution ceased to exist. The Govern
ment offered an assessed valuation in money
to the owners, many of whom however, re-
fused to take it, while others took it, and made
it over to the omancipated slaves themselves.
~ An auecdote is told of an English
barber who observed to the customer that
there was "cholera in the hair Then

phere."
