Not less than 2,000 per- sous assembled boneath the lovely canopy of its, Jusurlaut folingo, and, from first to last, thepro- ceedings wero charactorizod by animation, not to say enthusiasm. Hall's Band, of Boston, fur- nighed good music at froquent intorvals, and, g8 all nocessary arrangemonta bad been made to tnko the sufiragista to and from the grove by specinl troing, and for their comfork and amuso- mont thore, tho affair prased off with smooth- uens.
