The National Union Nominees.

Tie Baltimore National Union Conven.
ton finished its work on Wednesday, and
has done it we'll. Abraham Lincoln and
Andrew Johnson, of Tennessee, are its can
didates for President and Vice President
SO far as the denomination of President
Lincoln is concerned the result is, of course,
what the people anticipated. Ii is direct
and unmistakable concession to the popular
voice of the Union party.
Mr. Lincoln's nomination was fnanimous
on the first ballot, with the exception of the
vote Of Missouri, which was cast for General
Grant. subsequently this latter vote was
changed, and the vote was made entirely
unanimous, amidst prolonged cheering, mu-
sic and the ringing of bells.
After the nomination for President was
concluded, the Convention proceeded to
vote for a candidate for Vice President
The following names were presented:
Andrew johnson, of Tennessee /: Hannibal
Hamlin of Maine; D. S. Dickinson, of
New York ; General Rosseau, Of Kentucky.
As the vote proceeded it Was soon appar-
ent that johnson of Tennessee, was to be
the nominee and before the vote was an.
nounced the various States whose vote had
been divided commenced changing them
and went unanimously for johnson amid
great enthusiasm.
AHuTeW johnson was nominated as can
lidate for Vice President on the first bal.
lot.
Governor johnson is essentially man Of
the people. In early life he was journey
man tailor. He came to manhood without
even the frstrudiments Of school education
For his first induction into the walks Of
scholarship, he was indie tied to his wife,
He was an apt pupil, and how rapidly and
effectively he advanced his vigorous writing
and ready and powerful orntory bear noble
testimony. His public career has been long
and singu larly successful First appearing
in the National House Of Representatives,
then as Governor of Tennessee, and then as
Senator of the United States. This last pos
ition he resigned to accept the Office of
Brigadier- General. and since the 4th ofMurch
1862, he has been Military Governor of Ten.
essee. In this most difficult Office his al.
ministrntion has been marked by signal abi.
ity and great success.
Andrew johnson is an earnest, honest
man, Of extraordinary natural ability and
as tYde patriot as can be found within
the boundaries of the United States

Things about Town.
REPORTED FOR THE CECIL WIG.

Mr.. John V. Reardon, of Elkton,
net with an accident on Friday afternoon,
the Sd inst, by which he was severely in
jured. He was on his way home from Be-
hernia Manor, where he had purchased a
colt, and which he was then driving with
another horse, and when about five miles
from Elkton, the tongue became partly de-
tached from the carriage, frightening the
horses so that they became unmanapeable
and after running for some distance they
threw Mr. R. out, injuring his head severely,
and continuing on in their fright until the
carriage was broken in pieces. He was ia.
ken charge Of by a young man whom he
had taken with him, and who was riding on
horseback short distance behind at the
time, who assisted him to get on his horse,
and thus he was conducted home. where he
remained in state of delirium for several
days, but has now recovered.
Another and similar accident occurred
to DIR. G. M. Ellis, on last Saturday, which
resulted in the breaking up of his carriage
but he escaped without injury. His horse
became frightened at the cars, and immedi.
ately began to kick violently, smashing up
the carriage, but doing no other damage.
Lieut. Samuel P. Stewart, of the 6lst
Pa. Vols, and formerly of Elkton, was in
town on furlough this week. He was
wounded in one of the late battles. This is
the second time the Lieutenant has been
wounded, having received ball in the leg
at the battle of Fair Oaks, in May, 1862.
The Fifth Maryland Regiment, which
has been stationed at Fort Delaware for a
long time, passed through Elkton, on its
way to the front, on Monday night last. A
number of the boys took French leave after
the Regiment had arrived at Wilmington
among whom was the comical Tom Tyson,
and came to Elkton and Chesapeake City
on the following day, where they were hav.
ing jolly time, until Provost Marshal Ben
nett gathered them up and sent them to the
Regiment, on Thursday. 1t may also be
well enough to state that the Colonel was
really with his Regiment
CHARLES. son Of Capt. l.. Ford, residing
at Elk Landing, was thrown from horse
on Thursday evening last, and had his arm
broken. The case is said to be bad one.
Sally, daughter of Jas. s. Crawford,
ESQ.,, of Elkton, was bitten through the lip
by dog, on her return from school on the
evening of last Thursday. The wound is
severe.
A new barber shop has been opened at
the eating and drinking saloon Of Joseph
Marrett.

SOMETHING IN THE wIND.-We have re.
ceved information BY the brigantine Prince
Alfred which left Barbados on the 9th ult. +,
that the English war steamer Greyhound
had been despatched the day previous in
search of the Rebel steamer Florida. She
had received sealed dispatches which were
not to be opened until the Florida was un.
der the range Of their guns. What can all
this mean? Are the English going to claim
the Rebel cruiser as vessel belonging to
Englishman who flied her out and named
her for the Rebel service? There is evident
ly something in the wind Of which we are
not yet appraised. The English Government
does not Ike the ugly record which has been
made by her ship builders and other sym.
pathizers with the Rebels in England and
it is not at all unlikely that they may wish
to smooth over the matter of their violated
neutrality by some demonstrations against
the Rebel cruisers which were furnished to
the Rebels ready made armed and equiped
by Englishmen. The present successes of
the Union arms give al earnest that the Re.
bellion will not be of long duration and the
prospect Of our on being in q condition to
overhaul the neutrality question with view
10 demand satisfaction for being over reached
in the matter while we had no time to attend
to il may pcs iby have something to d.
with the affair Of the florida, as a means OF
putting matters TO rights Ivy the English
Government, or their own motion.

To BE HOME. received from
Co. c, I'd Del. Vols, state that the regiment
expects to be mustered out on the 18th inst
one week from to-day,-and to shortly be
home. These brave men have been in the
service three years, during which fire
they have done noble service for their
country. They were down on the Peninsula
and at Antietam with Mcclellan at Fred.
ericksburg with Burnside at Chancelors-
vile with Hooker; at Gettysburg with
Meade, and with Grant in the present move
ment on Richmond; in all these battles
they have acquitted themselves nobly, and
IN each engagement some brave fellows have
fallen. And now after all their marching
and fighting, sacrifices and heroic endur-
ance, they are about to return to their homes
and friends. And small band il is. com.
pared with what it was when it went OUT
week or two ago call was made for
meeting to take measures for the proper re-
ccption of the Cecil boys but we believe
there was nothing done. 1t is time some
action was being taken in the matter. We
do not know that they expect public re.
ccption but they have a right to expect
one; and it ought to be given them. No
doubt the regiment will be received in fine
style in Delaware, and it will be shabby
treatment, to say the least of it, if the Ce.
Gil boys do Hot receive some mark of atten.
ton from the loyal people here.

the 6S drawn, four were counted as soldiers

before the Board were either discharged on
account of physical disqualification, or were
released by the payment of $500.

These thirteen who did not appear before
the Board, unless they are delivered up, to.
gether with eighteen who were exempted on
account of Physical disability (making in
all 81 will have to be drafted for in few
days. 1t is apparent to every one that it
becomes his interest to have all who are
drafted, to make their appearance before
the Examining Board, and either claim ex.
emption, pay Communication, or 60 into the
service, otherwise their neighbors may have
to answer to the draft, which they have I'M
justly escaped. Out of the 6s that were
drawn from this county, SO were committed,
10 exempted on account of physical disa-
bility, ID did not appear, and were mus.
tered into the service.
All who are enrolled, and are over age,
under age, Or physically disqualified, should
report at Chestertown and have their names
stricken from the enrolment list. The quota
of the county will then be reduced, every
man liable to draft should make it part of
his business to attend to this important mat
ter. 1t may save him $500.

snys the two companies of Maryland Cavalry
commanded BY Captains Theodore Clayton
and Thomas H. Watkins were last Saturday
d'smonnted, on their way to the front, under
d general order of the Lieutenant General
ordering all cavalry horses to be sent to
General Sheridan. The men were furnished
with muskets, and sent to the Notifications
opposite Washington. After drilling two
days the officers and men, without single
exception, voted and volunteered to 70 at
once to General Grants army as infantry,
and have by this time probably reached the
'front.' These companies have been pro.
nounced by various Inspectors among the
very best in the service. and this patriotic
action reflects high credit upon the young
officers in command, and the men in the
ranks.

DEATH OF A AGED CITIzEN.-Captain
Thomas Patton, a citizen of Cecil county,
died on Sunday night last, after short i'll
ness, at his residence short distance from
Fort Deposit, in the ninety first year of his
age. The Captain commanded rife com
pany in the war of 1912. He was one of the
few remaining among us whose lives reach
ing back almost century, connect the pres
ent with past age and nation, when these
States were British Colonies The Captains
was one of those genial spirits-aas ! so
rarely met with-that enjoy the sunshine of
life, dffusing happiness to all around them.
Ninety-one years is long time to look
around on this fleeing world, and note its
rapid charges.
