Deniocralic otate central Committee was held yes
terday at II NJ, at the "Breckinridee and Lane
Head Quarters" Taylor's Building, on Fayette
street. near Calvert. The meeting had been called

the "Head Quarters" the most appropriate place.

OF Coz: Wilson M. Cary, by calling Joshua Van
sant Esq, to the chair
On motion of DR.. Hoffman, Eugene Cummi.kev.
Esq, was appointed Secretary.
herenpon the Chairman remarked that the meet
ing mad been called by the Chairman of the COM
mittee, who was not now present. The Chair was
not aware of the object of the meeting and would
be glad If some gentlemen would state the specific
business Tor which the committee had been called
together.
DR.. Morris, of Baltimore, said that he had re-
celved a letter recently from Mr. johnson. in
which he stated that the call of the committee was
for the purpose of devsing means and arranging
the plans for carrying on vigorous camnaign
throughout the State
The Secretary then called the roll of counties and
1t was found that, with Baltimore CITY, the 70 low
Ing counties were represented:
Baltimore county, Carroll, Howard, Anne Arun-
del, Prince Georges, Cecil, Kent Dorchester.
Somerset, Caroline and Hartford
D. carroll Walsh, Esq, of Hartford, then moved
that committee be appointed by the Chair, whose
duty should be to prepare business for the action
of the meeting, said committee to report TO an ad
journed meeting to be neld in the afternoon.
j. Brooke Boyle, Esq, of Carroll, hoped that the
motion to adjourn until the afternoon would not
prevail. lie thought that the committee could
transact all the business for which it had been call
ed together, in a very brief period.
Mr.. Bateman, of Hartford, said he was not aware
OF the OBJECT of the meeting but he thought all the
business of the committee could be done before an
adjournment. lie thought there was n mighty Slim
attendance of members, and it might be deemed
presumptuous in such small body to dictate any
important subject to the whole State If the object
oil the call was to merely make arrangements for
meetings throughout the State, the thing could be
accomplished in half an hour
Dr. Morris said that the object Mr. johnson had
IN view was to fix on some plan throughout the
State to carry on the campaign. One idea was to
have Central Committee at the city of Baltimore,
who in correspondence with the other members of
the committee throughout, could arrange all the de-
tails of the campaign.
Mr.. Walsh here withdrew his motion
Dr. Morris then moved that a committee of five
be appointed by the Chair to prepare business for
the meetng-the committee to report immediately

The Chair appointed as the commttee-Dr. John
Morris, of Baltimore city; j. Carroll Walsh, of
Hartford; Tilghman Goldsborough, of Dorchester;
Mr.. Miller, of Cecil, and Mr.. Pinkney, of Anne
Arundel. The committee retired, when
DIR. Hoffman, of Baltimore, moved that DR.. Jno
}. Graves be appointed member Of the State
Central Committee, to fill the place made vacant
by the withdrawal of DR.. Henry S. Hunt Car
ried.
Mr.. Tilghman Goldsborough, of Dorchester, ten
dered his resignation as one of the Central Com
mttee giving his for this course that he
mad removed from the county where he formerly
resided He proposed the name of Daniel NJ Henry
to fill the vacancy caused by his resignation. He
assured the members that Mr. Henry would be
active in the interests of the party Mr.. Henry
was thereupon elected.
On motion of DR.. Hoffman, Eugene Cummiskey,
Esq was declared the permanent Secretary of he
State Democratic Central Committee.
DIR. Morris, Chairman of the Committee of Five
appointed to prepare business, said the Committee
would offer two suggestions for the action of the
meeting. The first was, that Central Committee
OF Seven be appointed by the Chairman, to act in
conjunction with the chairman of the committee
to make all the arrangements for the campaign; to
correspond with the Electors and the county com
mittees, and fix the time of holding the mass meet
lngs throughout the State.
ResOlred, That the County Executive Committees be
requested to take the proper steps for complete and
thorough organization of the National Democracy their
respective counties.
After the reading of the resolutions some CONVEX
sation took place among the members in regard to
the electors calling straight out" Democratic
mass meetings in the Counties and not Joining
their forces with meetings, when there would be
Joint discussions, &C., but the resolutions were
adopted without any amendments.
Mr.. Walsh suggested that the committee to be
appointed by the President be selected from BaIti.
more city, or from the counties in the immediate
vicinity.
Inc meeting then adjourned.
