ssTHE ST. ALBAN,S RAID"
BRADLEY BARLOW NOMINATED FOR CON-
GREss BY THE BOILERS.

Barlow's convention was held in st.
Adams on Saturday. From the best
estimates we set the number of the bolt
ers, Grout men and minors, at about
16OO,-a very small number consider
ering the exceedingly cheap fare, the
large number of free tickets distributed
and the remarkable effort that was made
to get up crowd. On the assembly of
the meeting at noon, G. G.. Hobson of
Brighton, was made chairman and F. E.
Alfred, of Newport, secretary. Vice
presidents from all the counties except
Grand Isle, from which no person ap-
peared, were appointed. Speeches were
made. by the celebrated Geo. A. Ballard
of Fairfax, and 0. S. Dorman of New
port. Ballard complained of some fancied
i'll usage he and other friends of Barlow
had received from the Free Press. The
great o. S. Dorman of Newport, told
how the attempt was made in Orleans
County to buy up votes for Barlow pre-
vious to the Hydepark convention, and
nominated MIR. Barlow for congress. Sew
eral persons seconded Barlow's nomina-
ton, and vote was taken which resulted
in a nomination Mr.. Barlow being
!,
waited upon by Ballard, Dorman and
Silsbee came IN and made the following
speech:
Mr.. President and Gentle men IL
thank you for the distinguished honor
you have bestowed upon me to-day. Yor
have evidently taken this matter int
your own hands and it will be settled a.
the polls. If the nomination is ratified
by the people, l will endeavor to serv,
you with honesty and integrity.
Col. Albert Clark mounted the stag
and reluctantly made a speech, which
showed how easily man can eat dirt
Mr.. Clark excused himself from maxim.
an extended speech, as it was necessar,
for him to hasten to the Messenger offic
and haul down the name of the regula
nominee for congress and put up a Dol
| ters's instead.
A long list of carefully worded reso
| lutions, which were doubtless prepare
. in the Barlow "bureau," were presente
: and adopted.
On the same day the Greenbacker
r held convention at Essex Junction, 0
7 which about rs were present.
r The great NJ T. Hatch of North Tro
, was present and nominated Barlow fl
t congress, so he got a double nominatiO
e all in one day.
9 We condense the above from the S
e Adams Messenger of Saturday, and jude
j from the account in that paper that Il
: whole thing was stupendous fzzle. II
i character of most of the men engaged
e it, the speeches made by those endorsir
