Peoples Convention,

A Mass Meeting Of the Republican party
the friends Of Freedom, in Carroll county, will
be held at the Court House, in CarrOll,on, Oh

pose Of inIerchanging sentiments upon the po-
llical interests Of the people, and selecting
three delegates to repretent Carroll county in
the State Convention TO be held at Columbus,
on the 18th Of July, 1855.
In view OF the outrage perpetrated upon the
rights of Freemen in the repeal OF the Missouri
compromise and the violation OF compacts; the
recsat frauds and violence at the Kansas elec
tions, and the denial Of the rights OF citizenship
to free citiEens OF that territory, it behooves us
10 bury all minor differences, as did the Re-
publican party last year, and in one united ef.
tort arrest the progress OF the Slave power
Come, let US take counsel together for the
good Of oar country RetTenchment and Re.
iorm In our State government is loudly deman-
ded. Tbs enormous taxes imposed under the
operation Of the present unjust tax law, and the
prohigRcy which characterlzes our State officers
require that there be hearty response on the
part Of the people,
Then let us meet in spirit of mutual con =
oession, in regard to The minor points, and aG :
vocate measures that will best rebuke these
outrages; redress these abuses, and reform our
State policy; and choose delegates to the State
convection, who will be instrumental in select
ing men for our Stale ticket who will give the
highest possible tone 10 the rebuke Cordial
ty of feeling and unity of action will most as
suredly again crown our efforts with success.

MAJORITY REPORT.
Resolved, That the American party, having
arisen upon the ruins and in spite Of the op-
position Of The Wing and Democratic parties,
cannot be held in any manner responsible for
the obnoxious acts or violated pledges OF eth

shown il il impossible TO reconcile opinions so
