FRIDAY, JUNE %, 1872.
The stare convention.


The State Convention, on Wednesday,
Of Montpelier, was The largest, most spir-
tied. and comprised the best talent of
the party that, probably, ever convened
IN the State. Its results show the uncer-
tainties Of a political canvass-its freaks
and its reyenges. Gov. Stewart was not
reDominated, IS il was apparent for
months he could not be. Mr.. Billings
had large plurality Of the Convention,
and required but three more votes 10 ST.
cure the nomination be had so vigorous
1v sought. Hon. Julius Converse, whom
hardly any one supposed was candi-
date, much less strong enough to gain
the nomination-was The final choice Of
the Convention This was accomplished
through the spirit Of revenge on the part
of Gov. Stewart, who after his OWL de-
feat. tbrew bis whole strength for Mr.
Converse. While Gov Stewart was able
to accomplish s0cb s. result, Mr. Billings
achieved far higher triumph than be-
ing governor Of the State, IN the manly,
able and higb-toned speech lie made in
obedience to the invitation Of the Con-
vsntion. Every delegate. both friend
and opponent. went to his home with
admiration for the ability, eloquence
and heart Of Frederick Billings
