solved to hold National Council in Philadel-
phia on the 18th of February, to confer Oh the
June meeting, it will be recoleeted that a
National Convention, TO nominate candidates
for the Presidency and Vice Presidency, was
appointed to be held at Philadelphia on the a2d
| February. 1t was so arranged. therefore, that
the work OF reconstructing the platform should
take place in the Council. just before the assem-
bling OF the Nominating Convention. In MANY
instances, too, if not in jority, the same del
ega;es would act in both the Council and the
| Convention.
