and they we're not backward in expressing
their contempt for Bostonian politicians.

sisting Of four Republicans, four Demo-
Gratis, and four Independents, chosen from
among the wealthiest and most influential
residents Of this city, has been appointed,

cession will escort the visitors from the
train to Mr.. Blaine's house. In the even
ing there will be fireworks, and on Tues
day evening q general illumination of the
