9Fhe Cincinnati papers of yesterday bring US
accounts Of a large American" demonstration in
that city, OH Thursday night, in opposition to
CHASE for Governor and in favor Of the nomina-
ton of ]. Scorr HARRISON for that office. The

which was marked by great enthusiasm. The
following resolutions were passed.
Resolved, That the people of Hamton'county-
particularly The city of Cincinnati here assembled
have no particular fondnesS for men, profess
sons, or party platforms. In our candidates for
Office, give us MEN-men that are known, and
whose antecedentS have been right.
Resolved, That John Scott Harrison is such
man. We feel that he will do right at all times.
The past is our guarantee.
Resolved, That we are ready and anxious to
vote at the next election for John Scott Harrison
for Governor of Ohio; and we do most cordially
recommend him to our fellow citizens everyw here
throughout the State, us the MAN tor that office at
this time.
Resolved, That we respond 10 the call for
Mass Convention at Columbus, August 9Th, and
recommend that this meeting, when it dues adj

above suspiciaIl, certified, that he had examined
the various books, and that from the certificate
book the number of shares held III the company
was 1854. In this last case piece of gross de.
Cepton was practiced upon the examiner. The
treasurer having previously marked upon a sheet
OF paper certain amounts OF stock to cover in the
aggtegate all the stock held by the share. holders
and issued legitimaiely, handed the sheet to the
examiner to be footed up, while the examination
of the stock ledger was going on; and then Tuck
