BOFT0N, March TO.
The strikers Of Lynn made great turn
out in procession to day, numbering over
5000. The spectators were double that
number. Several hundred banners were
borne by the strikers, both male and female,
and the city was decorated in many places
with fags and streamers. The procession
comprised, beside all the strikers of Lynn,
several military and fire companies, with
baads OF music and delegations of ladies
from swampscott, Marblehead, Danvers,
Saugus, Reading, Stoneham, Woburn, Bev-
erly, Salem, and other places. The weather
WIS delightful, and tho proceedings were
very gratifying to the participators.

The town was thronged with visitors to-
day, and several companies OF military were
in attendance. Stephens and Hazlett were
hung at noon. They appeared resigned to
their fate. Stephens died very hard, while
Hazlets died without struggle. Both ex-
hibited great frmness. There were no re-
ligious exercises at the gallows, as the pris-
oners persisted In refusing all the kindly of
fers of the ministry in their last moments
They were both Spiritualists, and had Pc
culiar religion of their own, which enabled
them to meet their fate with cheerfulness
and resignation. Both bodies have been re-
moved to Marcus Spring, South Amboy, New
Jersey.
