THE COUNTY MEETING.

We publish below the proceedings Of
the County mesting which assembled for
the purpose Of e~lectiug delegates to the
State Convention. The meeting though
not as large rs oms meetings that have
been ia this coHnsY, was quite respectable
"a to numbers, and we noticed quite o
aumber Of persons present who bad acted
with the Republican party up ia the time
that il degsnerased into an Aboiision-Ns-
grs-suGrags-sqaaIity party. This shows
shat there are some at least, in this con-
muniky, who supported President Lincoln
and bis measures, who will not follow
Chase, Sumner & CO., in their Negro
equality schemes.
The resolutions were adopted without
. dissenting Vote, and the one recommen-
ding the nomination for Governor, Of that

upon his person desp sears from wounds
