II. d. SANBoRN.-Tu connection with the
Portland Centennial Committee, the gentle
man whose name heads this article received
the fullest acclaim mt the hands of the press
: and people of Portland and the REGIsTEE
: went so far as to say a few favorable things
of him-but then this latter part happened
before Mr.. II. d. Sanborn had brought his
party here, and we had got thoroughly ac-
quaiuted with the man himself. Mr.. San.
born was the head-center of large COM
pany of excellent, representative people
who came from Portland and other points
on visit to Albany, and We're the guests
of the city of Albany from Monday even

on the ipvitation of the Mayor of our city
but of the Fire Department as well. And
now we come to the matter in hand, and
are compelled TO acknowledge that Sanborr
is a-but then we belong to church anc

nouncing. Judgment on him. The Com

: Der of tickets at the various business tonsel
n in the city, for sale, proposing to cliargt
: every one but our guests small adnrissicr
a fee TO the hop in the evening. Well, al
of these tickets were rot sold, and nov

: after the ball., bright and early, be Wen
: round and bought up all the unsold ticket
y he could find. and carried them of to Port
land! the Committee of Arrangements
: never finding it out until after the, guests
had departed for Salem. Sanborn Is Z
genuine gold brick, and he will always fint
welcome in Albany, but the '-Com. o.
+ Arr propose to get even with him Ii i
| takes all Summer.
