THE BOILERS.
It was noised about that the boilers would
to- day make demonstration. The Peabody
Institute was designated as their pace OF
meeting. At the appointed hour some two
hundred persons as auditors appeared to hear
what was going on. The number of the actors
was so very small it required some nerve for
them to go into organization. Joseph K. Elan
dcrs. of New York, was chosen president,
and Mr.. F.. Stokes, of South Carolina, maze

States in sentiment and interest. There are
only sixteen delegates at present from Virgil

the delegates from the State at large, are
here, and Mr.. Marye is expected tonight.
Other delegates are looked for.
