THE UNION CONVENTION.
The Union Convention met at the
Court H,ase on Saturday the 3Ist o.
August, and without a discordant ele.

job was never done in this county. All
party feelings of formeryears were for

Like a true patriot, as he is, Mr.. Fowler
did not desire the position, but preferred
to attend to the duties of the farm, and
serve his country and State at home, by
his voice and purse. When our citizens

volunteers, although Mr. Fowler could
not go himself, he at once placed at the
disposal of the committee little fortune
