t or battle-lantern of party is the everlasting sun of Truth, in whose beams are the duties of men. These speeches of Palfrey, Adams, Sumner, and Allen met with demonstrations of disfavor, chiefly from delegates from Boston. The noise began as Palfrey rose, and the shouting and hissing broke out while he and Adams were speaking; but wry faces only were reserved for Sumner's speech. Boston Whig, October 16. Winthrop almost alone conducted the opposition to Palfrey's resolution, John C. Gray, of Boston, supported him in debate. rising twice to speak against it, and by interruptions of Sumner and Adams obtaining two more hearings. He maintained that the resolution would unwisely fetter the action of delegates to the national convention, make a fatal breach between Northern and Southern Whigs, and aid the election of a Democratic President who would be more obnoxious than a Southern Whig. Boston whig. October 13. He received hearty cheers from the Boston delegates who had

The convention was a representative body well worthy of the State. The Boston delegation included, among lawyers, Rufus Choate, Sidney Bartlett, F. B. Crowninshield, George S. Hillard, Thomas Hopkinson, Samuel D. Parker, George Morey, and Judge Peleg Sprague; among physicians, Jacob Bigelow and George Hayward; among clergymen, Samuel K. Lothrop and George W. Blagden; among editors, Nathan Hale, William Schouler, and J. S. Sleeper; and among merchants, William Appleton, Samuel A. Eliot, John C. Gray, J. Thomas Stevenson, and George B. Upton. Cambridge sent two jurists, Simon Greenleaf and Joel Parker, a former and a present professor in the Law School. Salem sent Otis P. Lord, later a judge; and Pittsfield, George N. Briggs. Against this array of Whigs was an equally formidable list of Democrats and Free Soilers. Among the former were Banks, Boutwell, Hallett, B. F. Butler (since known as General Butler), W. Griswold, and J. G. Abbott; and among the latter were Wilson, Dana, Sum

A meeting of members of that Society was held on the twenty-third of November, by invitation of Messrs. Bigelow and John C. Gray, to discuss the plan of a Cemetery to be connected with an Experimental Garden of the Society. A Committee of the Society was now appointed, consisting of Messrs. H. A. S. Dearborn, Jacob Bigelow, Edward Everett, G. Bond, J. C. Gray, Abbott LJ. C. Gray, Abbott Lawrence, and George W. Brimmer. These gentlemen called a more general meeting on the eighth of June, 1831, to consider the details of a plan now about to be carried into execution, &c. On this occasion the attendance was large. Mr. Justice Story took the chair, and the Hon. E. Everett acted as Secretary. Great interest and equanimity were expressed in regard to the design of the meeting. It was now voted to purchase Sweet Auburn, provided one hundred subscribers could be obtained, at sixty

I saw yesterday some twenty men who had been taken out of the prison at Sing Sing to be mustered into service. You may expect these worthy "protectors" shortly in Baltimore, where they will doubtless be warmly received by their sympathizers, the unconditional of your city. The Washington corrrespondent of the New York Herald thus states the case: Wiley Edward, John C. Gray and William T. Andrews, of Boston, have been here endeavoring to persuade the President that he ought to change his constitutional advisers. It is said these gentlemen represent the sentiments of certain prominent monetary interests in Boston, capitalists of the Athens, who demand that the heads of the War and Navy Departments must come off, else they will not risk their capital further.
