They will Hso instruct 'their delegates whether or not to t peal-the two-thirds rale heretofore required iu our county 'conventions, and wl'ich is not osed in any other county. From all indications these 'meetings will be more largely attend ed thin any heretofore, and we hope that tho utmost bartnODy will -prevail at them all.

Oh! what a change and. contrast! At tbo wold of command from the chief marshal Ool. J. R. Lane, the column of soldiers began the maich to the grove wheie tbe speaking nd dicier were to be held. At the head of the column rode the marshals, aii v'sll mounted ; theu came the Siicr City brass band, at the head of which; "(equipped with his baton, sash cud other insignia of his rank') marched Mr. John T. Malloiy, who was the old lifer of the Chatham Rilles and afterwards drum major of the 15th regiment. The post of holier whs assigned to the Chatham Rifles, as ibt wfcs the first Company from Ohathfem to voltnfecr iu the war.
