The same gentleman moved for the sp-
pointment of State Central COMMITTEES Of
thirteen, the msjorlty Of them 70 be in the

Mr. Wharton, ]. R. Hubbard and A. B.
Caldwell, of Wheeling, Jas. l.. Freeman,
of Hancock, and G. d. Hubbard, of Wheel
ing, we're seVerally named for The first dis
trict and seVerally declined. s.I
Mr.. Boyd said it was the first time in the
history Of our Conventions he had ever
known a delegate from the first district 70
decline q nomination for anything.
1t was understood that their reason for
declining was q belief that by SO reducing
the COMMITTEES in numbers and scattering II
over the State it was rendered practically
worthless.
Mr.. freeman, Of Hancock, nominated
A. ". Campbell, Esq, of the Wheeling IN
fsIligenesr,. he said AFR. Campbell was not
present and could not decline, and there
fore he was sure his nomination would
stick, besides they wanted him on the COM
mfttee to keep Mr.. Boyd straight.
Mr.. Boydthought It much more likely he
would be needed to keep Mr.. G. straight,
inasmuch as the National "heWed close the
line" and the chips sometimes dew over
and hit the LnteEIigsHesr and made IL frso-
tious.
Mr.. Campbell was chosen.
Mr.. Phelps Of Mason, was chosen for the
third district, on motion Of Mr.. Fitzgerald.
A resolution moved by Mr.. Leonard, of
Wood, was adopted directing the Secretary
to furnish to the Wheeling InteltigeSeeT an
official report of the procoediDgs, aud re-
questing that jouanal to publish IL, and
the other loyal papers Of the State to copy.
A committee Of three was appointed 10
inform the nominees of the Convention of
their nomination, as follows:
Col. Geo. r. Latham of Taylor; Henry
<. List, Esq, of wheeling, and James 3.
Wharton, OF the Parkersburg Gazette.
The Convention then, on motion Of Mr..
Flesher Of Jackson, dissolved, having done
between the hours of one and ten O'Clock,
all the work assigned to il, and as ell here
agree having in the main done IL we'll.
A meeting Of the delegates from the
first Congressional district was called inn
mediately upon the adjournment, In the
church, and q meeting Of those from the
second held IN the school house few steps
distant TO take into consideration matters
relating TO nominations for copgressmen!
The delegates from the frat district unani-
mously agreed to recommend to the people
Of the district O. d. Hubbard, Esq, Of your
city. Those from the second fixed upon
the 22d Of September for holding 9 district
convention ct this place. The delegates
from the third district held no meeting.
We had report here during the aftsr-
noon that there Was q force of 400 rebels
under Bill Jackson at Weston, and others
(numbers unknoWn) at GlenTillei bat later
Reports contradict It.
