In compliance with my promise, drop you this TO
let YOU know the result of the last night . meetings,
a nd of the yesterdays elections. Andrews, Cone,
Tracy, Hitler, were elected Judges. Col. Dawson,
las, gh signied to his Wing friends his intention TO
resign his seat in Congress- and assigned his reasons
aiiogcther prirac. HIS were considered good
and they passed resolutions complimentary TO hIm, Al
ford and Nesbit The Wings then proceeded TO noml-
nate three individuals 10 fill the vacancies caused by
the three designations. Messrs. Gilmer, DougIcrty
and Bright of Cass county, were nominated Mr. Gil
mer YOU know is said 10 be anti Bank. The position
! of the other two is unknown-last year Bank men
now perhaps in n state of bctEcsnify-W like, look
ing out to see how the wind bows-some little dstrac
| ton among them. Mr.. S. after the nomination was
made as | was informed, desired to know what then
principles were-whether they were bank or anti bank
and under what standard they intended to rally lie
asked for Internationally no one answered him. &c
YOU perceive they still intend to keep dark. They are
evidently routed and scattered. They are indeed float
ing upon the ocean Of uncertainty, and have neithei
compass or chart They have brought out as they sup
pose their heaviest metal but if we act during the pre-
Sc session as we should we can beat them easy.
We met too in the Representative Chamber
speeches from Messrs. Cooper, Black, HARRISON ant
Stiles. Our meeting an enthusiastic one and mucf
rood feeling seemed to prevail. meeting is TO be
held on Thursday evening next, to nominate three can
ddatcs from the Democracy TO hill the vacancies no
tbino has transpired to settle who to be rum
